Heterogeneity of ipRGCs5 major classes of
ipRGCs
Each classified by certain differences in anatomy and physiology

Soma SizeSoma size = Size of cell body
Both figures modified from: Schmidt et al. (2011)

Dendritic Stratification and FieldDendritic Stratification = Where signal is received in the retinaDendritic field = Amount of area covered by dendrites
Both figures modified from: Ecker. (2011)

Molecular IdentityMolecular Identity = Level of Gene ExpressionMelanopsin gene = e.g. Opn4

Intrinsic Light ResponseEvaluation of response to
light
Traits include sensitivity based on both size of peak and duration

What Has Been DoneMethods:•Chemical reactions based on hypothesized pathway
Example:
•Conversion of chemical reactions to differential equations using mass action (and Michaelis-Menten kinetics)
Example:
•System of differential equations was solved in Matlab and the solution for the concentration of open channels was plotted
•Parameters (rate constants) were adjusted to fit experimental data with the help of MATLAB function fminunc.

What We’re Doing

Further DirectionsComplete literature review of non-M1 ipRGCs
Compile differences among different ipRGC classes
Incorporate those differences into the model
