Summary
This paper discusses the gene expression profiles of early postnatal and adult mouse intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), revealing unexpected complexity in gene expression patterns across mammalian ipRGC subtypes.
Categories
Eye health: The paper discusses the gene expression profiles of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), which are essential for non-image-forming vision functions.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the role of ipRGCs in encoding overall light intensity for extended periods, which is crucial for various brain functions.
Aging: The paper compares the gene expression profiles of early postnatal and adult mouse ipRGCs, revealing differences that could be related to aging.
