Movie 14.
Left: Microglia (red) clearing YFP+ puncta (yellow) in the presumptive inner plexiform synaptic layer through the extension of long processes from the microglia. Not all YFP+ puncta in the vicinity are cleared. Selected engulfment targets are denoted with white arrows. Right: Müller glia (turquoise) clearing YFP+ puncta (yellow) in the presumptive inner plexiform synaptic layer through the extension of small cellular processes that traffic the puncta into the cell (white arrow). Pertains to Figure 7.
Intercellular contact and cargo transfer between Müller glia and to microglia precede apoptotic cell clearance in the developing retina
