Summary
This paper discusses the light-activated Ca 2+ signals in ipRGCs and the relationship of these responses to light-driven action potential firing.
Categories
Eye health: The paper discusses the light-activated Ca 2+ signals in ipRGCs, which are a type of retinal ganglion cell, and their responses to light-driven action potential firing.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the role of ipRGCs in the transmission of photic information to nonvisual systems, which could have implications for cognitive function and memory.
Hormone regulation: The paper discusses the role of ipRGCs in the regulation of intracellular calcium levels, which could have implications for hormone regulation.
