When cone and rodphotoreceptor dysfunction was present, it was approximately equal.
2
A single photon can be detected by a rodphotoreceptor cell.
3
Our studies also implicate MEF2C as a transcriptional regulator of homeostasis in rodphotoreceptor cells.
4
A new high-resolution structure is reported for bovine rhodopsin, the visual pigment in rodphotoreceptor cells.
5
PCR-analysis on laser capture microdissection samples was used to verify the expression of these genes in the rodphotoreceptor layer.
6
These results exclude passive diffusion and point toward active transport as the mechanism for light-dependent arrestin movement in rodphotoreceptor cells.
7
In both mouse strains, there was an overall decline in rodphotoreceptor number during aging, which was more pronounced in albino mice.
8
These results highlight an important caveat that must be considered when utilizing this mouse line for rodphotoreceptor-specific gene loss of function studies.
9
The findings raise the possibility that these patients have an abnormality in rodphotoreceptor function associated with the process of outer segment renewal.
10
However, little is known about the function of DICER1 in mature rodphotoreceptor cells, another retinal cell type that is severely affected in AMD.
11
After intravenous or dorsal lymph sac injections of 3H-22:6, most of the retinal label was seen in rodphotoreceptor cells.
12
In rd retinas, the 88 kDa immunoreactivity increased after 9 postnatal days, decreased during rodphotoreceptor degeneration, and was undetectable in mature rd retinas.
13
We found that IRBP removes all-trans-retinol from individual rodphotoreceptors in a concentration-dependent manner.
14
Activation of rodphotoreceptors by light induces a massive redistribution of the heterotrimeric G-protein transducin.
15
Unique to fish, rodphotoreceptors are added in situ from stem cells within the mature retina.
16
Cone photoreceptors of the vertebrate retina terminate their response to light much faster than rodphotoreceptors.
