Light, Melanopsin, and Retinal Development: A Comprehensive Characterization of Intrinsically Photosensitive Retinal Ganglion Cells in the Postnatal Retina

Description:

Melanopsin-expressing, intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) represent a class of non-canonical, ganglion cell photoreceptors. These cells influence a variety of visual behaviors including contrast sensitivity, circadian photoentrainment, sleep, and even mood. These wide-ranging behavioral influences are attributed to the multiple subtypes (M1-6) that comprise the ipRGC population, with different...
