Müller cell morphology and degree of activation in adult retinal transplants have, to our knowledge, never been reported previously. We transplanted adult rabbit neuroretinal full-thickness sheets, prepared under strict control, to the subretinal space of adult rabbits. After surviving 6-174 days, eyes were examined in the light microscope, and grafts displaying the normal laminated morphology were labeled with antibodies against vimentin and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). Müller cells in the grafts displayed the normal vertical arrangement, from outer limiting membrane to vitread endfeet. They showed an initial degree of activation, evident by GFAP upregulation, which diminished with increasing survival times, and was absent in the oldest specimens. In the host retina, Müller cells in the transplant area became progressively more disorganized with increasing survival times, and their degree of activation increased. Our results suggests that adult full-thickness neuroretinal grafts are structurally stable, even in long-term specimens, and thrive in spite of their allogeneic environment. The gliotic change seen in the host retina covering the graft is identical to the one seen in earlier reported eyes receiving embryonic grafts, and is due to the merangiotic nature of the rabbit neuroretina.
