Endogenous spontaneous ultraweak photon emission in the formation of eye-specific retinogeniculate projections before birth
Summary:
This paper discusses the development of eye-specific retinogeniculate pathways before birth, suggesting that Müller cells, discrete retinal noise of rods, and intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells might have key functions by means of retinal spontaneous ultraweak photon emission.
