Summary
This paper discusses the expression of the melanopsin gene in the rabbit retina at different ages, and compares its expression with the prototypic gene of retinal ganglion cells (Thy-1 gene).
Categories
Eye health: The paper discusses the expression of the melanopsin gene in the rabbit retina, which is relevant to eye health as it relates to the functioning of the retina.
Aging: The paper examines the expression of the melanopsin gene at different ages, making it relevant to the category of aging.
Education and learning: The paper contributes to the understanding of the functioning of the retina, which is relevant to education and learning in the field of biology and health sciences.
