مستخلص: To clarify our understanding of glial phagocytosis in retinal development, we used real-time imaging of larval zebrafish to provide cell-type specific resolution of this process. We show that radial Mü ller glia frequently participate in microglial phagocytosis while also completing a subset of phagocytic events. Mü ller glia actively engage with dying cells through initial target cell contact and phagocytic cup formation, after which an exchange of the dying cell from Mü ller glia to microglia often takes place. In addition, we find evidence that Mü ller glia cellular material, possibly from the initial Mü ller cell phagocytic cup, is internalized into microglial compartments. Previously undescribed Mü ller cell behaviors were seen, including cargo splitting, wrestling for targets and lateral passing of cargo to neighbors. Collectively, our work provides new insight into glial functions and intercellular interactions, which will allow future work to understand these behaviors on a molecular level.
