“…The next phase of our exploration of Myo/Nog cells involved characterizing their behaviors in normal and diseased tissues of adult mammals. Similar to the chick embryo, Myo/Nog cells are present in low numbers in all adult tissues and organs analyzed thus far, from mice to humans [ 16 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 ]. Within the eye, Myo/Nog cells are residents of the lens, cornea, ciliary body, retina and choroid [ 16 , 62 , 63 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 70 , 71 , 72 ] ( Figure 4 ).…”
