Neurons and glia arise from a common progenitor in chicken optic tectum: demonstration with two retroviruses and cell type-specific antibodies.

We used a recombinant retrovirus to study cell lineage in the chicken optic tectum. The virus inserts the Escherichia coli lacZ (beta-galactosidase) gene into the genome of an infected cell; a histochemical stain marks the progeny of infected cells with a blue precipitate. We had previously shown th...
