Development of Retinal Astroglia.
Journal Article Annu Rev Vis Sci · September 2025 Müller cells and retinal nerve fiber layer astrocytes are the major astroglia of the mammalian retina. They have numerous important functions in adulthood for maintaining neuronal homeostasis as well as in developing retina, where they facilitate key event ...
