Influence of Light Exposure on the Melanopsin Driven Pupil Response and Circadian Rhythm
… photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs). ipRGCs signal environmental light, with pathways to the midbrain to control pupil size and circadian rhythm. Evidence suggests that light exposure plays a role in refractive error development. This study sought to investigate whether …

MELANOPSIN AND PACAP IN INTRINSICALLY PHOTOSENSITIVE RETINAL GANGLION CELLS REGULATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF RETINOFUGAL PROJECTIONS IN MICE
… cells are intrinsically photo-sensitive (ipRGCs) and express the photopigment melanopsin and the neuropeptide pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP). These cells project to brain nuclei to mediate a variety of visual behaviors involved in both non-image and …

The Multifaceted Implications of Light for Psychological Well-Being and Mood
… from study I (systematic review) suggest that ipRGCs may not be as involved in the mood improvement associated with polychromatic light. Drawing strong conclusions from these results are, however, cautioned. Mood metrics used across the studies were inconsistent and the light sources were not …

Circadian Disruption by Light at Night: Implications for Mood
… photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) project light information to (1) the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the hypothalamus, regulating circadian rhythms, and (2) to limbic regions, putatively regulating mood. Thus, LAN has the potential to affect both circadian timekeeping and …
