Neurons
of the innermost layer of the
retina
, the internal plexiform layer. They are of variable sizes and shapes, and their axons project via the
OPTIC NERVE
to the brain. A small subset of these cells act as photoreceptors with projections to the
SUPRACHIASMATIC NUCLEUS
, the center for regulating
CIRCADIAN RHYTHM.
