In wild type mice, the absolute number of hyaloid vessels actively decreases between P4 and P10 and all vessels disappear by P30.
Elimination of the hyaloid vessels proceeds by programmed cell death in both human [ 45 ] and mouse eyes [ 33 35 ] . Furthermore, this death of endothelial cells and pericytes does not occur in the absence of macrophages.
Bmp4 +/-heterozygotes have abnormally arranged retinal blood vessels and abnormal persistence of the hyaloid vasculature.
Disruption of macrophage function prevents endothelial cell death and results in abnormal persistence of the capillary networks known as the pupillary membrane and hyaloid vasculature [ 33, 34].
In Bmp4 +/+mice the hyaloid vessels disappeared around P30, as reported elsewhere [ 33 34 ] . In contrast, the hyaloid vessels in Bmp4 +/-heterozygotes persisted throughout the 17 month period studied and increased in number and size beyond that normally present at birth (Figure 4D,E,F,G).
