Journal ArticleDOI
Phototransduction by retinal ganglion cells that set the circadian clock.
TL;DR: It is shown that retinal ganglion cells innervating the SCN are intrinsically photosensitive, and depolarized in response to light even when all synaptic input from rods and cones was blocked.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synaptic influences on rat ganglion‐cell photoreceptors
TL;DR: These extrinsic ipRGC light responses can explain some of the previously reported properties of circadian photoentrainment and other non‐image‐forming visual behaviours, and also extend their temporal bandpass to higher frequencies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photoreceptor Adaptation in Intrinsically Photosensitive Retinal Ganglion Cells
TL;DR: It is found that ipRGC sensitivity is plastic, strongly influenced by lighting history, and the mechanisms generating various non-image-forming visual responses are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The spatial structure of a nonlinear receptive field.

TL;DR: A mechanistic model based on measurements of the physiological properties and connectivity of only the primary excitatory circuitry of the retina successfully predicts ganglion-cell responses to a variety of spatial patterns and thus provides a direct correspondence between circuit connectivity and retinal output.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlling the gain of rod-mediated signals in the Mammalian retina.
TL;DR: The primary site of adaptation at low light levels is the synapse between rod bipolar and AII amacrine cells, and noise in the circuitry, rather than rod noise or fluctuations in arriving photons, limits ganglion cell sensitivity at low backgrounds.
