Cellular Mechanisms Underlying Embryonic Retinal Waves
Summary:
The paper discusses the role of Stage 1 retinal waves in the development of the retina, specifically the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), and how these waves are influenced by nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) and gap junctions.
