Floating retinal sections from 7-12-day-old rats form ball-shaped retinal bodies during roller culturing. Histological studies of serial sections of retinal bodies showed that their outer surface is formed by the retina completely retaining organotypic cytoarchitectonics. Some retinal bodies have laminar structure consisting of several layers of the retina. At the initial stages of culturing some retinal bodies contain a cavity, which later is completely obliterated due to the growth of axons of ganglion cells and migration of glial cells and fibroblasts. This study demonstrated the possibility of long-term survival, differentiation, and in vitro axonal regeneration of ganglion cells, the main retinal efferent neurons, which can provide the basis for investigation of pathology and drug correction of injuries and stimulation of regeneration of these cells in experimental glaucoma models.
