The elusive scleral cartilages: Comparative anatomy and development in teleosts and avians
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract The sclera of all vertebrate eyes is comprised of connective tissue, with some organisms developing cartilage within this tissue. A review of the cartilages that have been described in the vertebrate sclera and their anatomical relationships is discussed together with their potential homology.

Proteoglycans in the nervous system [PDF]
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1993 Proteoglycans are ubiquitous cell-surface and secreted glycoproteins that are involved in diverse cellular behaviors. The identities of several nervous system proteoglycans, including many of the major species in the mammalian brain, have recently come to light.
