Significados de retinal rod en inglés

We undertook this study to examine the biological relevance of Mef2c expression in retinal rod photoreceptors.

Background: The retinal rod outer segment is a sensory cilium that is specialized for the conversion of light into an electrical signal.

Vertebrate retinal rod outer segments (OS) consist of a stack of disks surrounded by the plasma membrane, where phototransduction takes place.

Bovine retinal rod outer segment membranes are enriched in a phosphoinositide-specific phosphodiesterase (phospholipase C) activity strictly modulated by free calcium ion concentration.

Specification of retinal rod photoreceptors is determined by several different transcription factors that activate expression of rod-specific genes and repress expression of cone photoreceptor-specific genes.

G beta 1 gamma 1 purified from retinal rods was dialyzed into cells via the voltage clamp micro-electrode.
