Amplifying and ameliorating light avoidance in mice with photoreceptor targeting and CGRP sensitization
2025-05-28
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Objective</h4> To determine the photoreceptor basis of light avoidance in mice and assess the effect of CGRP sensitization on this behavior. <h4>Background</h4> Prior studies have suggested that photophobia is mediated by a subset of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) that contain melanopsin, making them intrinsically photosensitive (ipRGCs). These cells also receive extrinsic input from cones, which can also med...
