A timeline of structural and functional consequences to ipRGCs in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

2 weeks 2 days ago
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects cognitive, sensory and motor systems, including the visual system and has a significant impact on autonomy and quality of life. Emerging evidence suggests that visual system abnormalities may enable early detection and monitoring for AD, appearing before cognitive symptoms. Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs or mRGCs) are among the first neurons affected in AD. This study investigates the...
