Abstract excerpt
Rd mutant mice are visually blind but they maintain the ability of synchronising their circadian rhythms to the external light-dark cycles. We used immunocytochemical procedures to detect light-induced Fos expression in the rd mice retina. We found that Fos is expressed in the rd retina in an unattenuated pattern through the entire life of the animal. Furthermore, we have found that cells expressing Fos are...
