Cell Type Overview
Muller cells are specialized radial glial cells that span the entire thickness of the retina, from the inner to the outer limiting membrane. They are the principal support cells of the retina, maintaining its structural integrity and homeostasis. They regulate extracellular ion and water balance, recycle neurotransmitters (especially glutamate), store glycogen for energy, and guide light to photoreceptors. Their dysfunction is involved in many retinal diseases.
