Rod photoreceptors signal fast changes in daylight levels using a Cx36-independent retinal pathway in mouse
Summary:
This paper investigates how rod photoreceptors in mice detect changes in daylight levels and contribute to the perception of temporal contrast at mesopic light levels.
Categories
- Eye health: The paper investigates the functioning of rod photoreceptors in the eyes of mice, specifically how they detect changes in daylight levels.
- Education and learning: The paper contributes to the understanding of how rod photoreceptors function, providing valuable information for educational purposes in the field of vision research.
