Meanings of rod cell in English

In darkness, transducin is sequestered within the membrane-enriched outer segments of the rod cell.

Photoreceptor rod cells and blood platelets are remarkably different, yet both illustrate a similar phenomenon.

In rod cells, cholesterol strongly inhibits rhodopsin activity.

Some deep-sea fish only have rod cells in the retinas of their eyes, unlike humans who have both rods and cones.

Bright light also causes relocalization of transducin from the OS (outer segments) of the rod cells to the inner compartments.

What's more, in cats, the signals from about 1500 rod cells are pooled into each neuron that leads out of the retina.

Rod cell numbers correlated with a drop in the overall amount of rhodopsin and a reduction in the maximum a-wave of the rod ERG.

In this study, we explore the role of this protein in processes associated with the formation of disk membranes, specialized organelles of photoreceptor rod cells.

Frogs have a violet-sensitive visual pigment (S group) in small single cone cells and a blue-sensitive visual pigment (MS group) in green rod cells.
