Critical Effects on Akt Signaling in Adult Zebrafish Brain Following Alterations in Light Exposure
Cells, 2021 Evidence from human and animal studies indicate that disrupted light cycles leads to alterations of the sleep state, poor cognition, and the risk of developing neuroinflammatory and generalized health disorders.

The Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Medicine, 2012 A histological study was conducted to examine the structure of optic tectum in Clemmys caspica caspica. The results showed that the optic tectum consist of seven strata and the third stratum consists of three substrata, as follows: The stratum zonula (SZ)

Molecular mechanisms separating two axonal pathways during embryonic development of the avian optic tectum [PDF]
, 1991 During embryonic development of the avian optic tectum, retinal and tectobulbar axons form an orthogonal array of nerve processes. Growing axons of both tracts are transiently very closely apposed to each other. Despite this spatial proximity, axons from

Proteomic Analyses of Zebra Finch Optic Tectum and Comparative Histochemistry [PDF]
, 2007 Proteomic analyses of zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) optic tectum resulted in identification of 176 proteins. In the Swissprot database, only 52 proteins were identified as bird homologs and only 71 proteins were identified in songbird transcriptome ...

THE REPRESENTATION OF THE RETINA ON THE OPTIC TECTUM OF THE PIGEON [PDF]
Quarterly Journal of Experimental Physiology and Cognate Medical Sciences, 1954 1. There is point to point representation of the retina on the optic tectum in the pigeon. The upper visual field is represented on the dorsal surface.2. A response obtained from the first three layers of the optic tectum may have a latency as short as 25 msec., and show little fatigue when the stimulus is repeated at rates of not more than 5 per sec.3.

Visual and Electrosensory Circuits of the Diencephalon in Mormyrids [PDF]
, 1990 Mormyrids are one of two groups of teleost fishes known to have evolved electroreception, and the concomitant neuroanatomical changes have confounded the interpretation of many of their brain areas in a comparative context, e.g., the diencephalon, where ...
