Frontiers in Molecular NeuroscienceRetinal membrane guanylyl cyclase (RetGC), regulated by guanylyl cyclase activating proteins (GCAPs) via negative calcium-feedback, is one of the most critically important enzymes in vertebrate rod and cone physiology, enabling their sensitivity to light.

High Yield of Cells Committed to the Photoreceptor Fate from Expanded Mouse Retinal Stem Cells
, 2006 The purpose of the present work was to generate, from retinal stem cells (RSCs), a large number of cells committed toward the photoreceptor fate in order to provide an unlimited cell source for neurogenesis and transplantation studies.

Photoreceptor Fate Determination in the Vertebrate Retina
, 2018 Photoreceptors are highly specialized primary sensory neurons that sense light and initiate vision. This critical role is well demonstrated by the fact that visual impairment accompanies photoreceptor loss or dysfunction in many human diseases.

Co-ordinating retinal histogenesis: early cell cycle exit enhances early cell fate determination in the Xenopus retina [PDF]
, 2002 The laminar arrays of distinct cell types in the vertebrate retina are built by a histogenic process in which cell fate is correlated with birth order.

Circadian rhythmicity and light sensitivity of the zebrafish brain [PDF]
, 2013 Light is important for entraining circadian rhythms, which regulate a wide range of biological processes. Zebrafish have directly light responsive tissues (Whitmore et al 2000) and are thus a useful vertebrate model for circadian rhythmicity and light ...

Neuronal induction and regional identity by co-culture of adherent human embryonic stem cells with chicken notochords and somites [PDF]
The role of somites and notochords in neuroectoderm differentiation from the embryonic ectoderm and its subsequent patterning into regional compartments along rostro-caudal and dorso-ventral axes, especially in humans, remains elusive.

A comparative study of the potential for human retinal pigment epithelium utilising an embryonic chick model of the phenomenon [PDF]
, 2014 The retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells of several species, including: chicken, rat, mouse and newt, have been observed to undergo a phenomenon known as transdifferentiation.

Nomen omen: Euglena gracilis possesses a rhodopsin‐based photoreceptor
The unicellular microalga Euglena gracilis has always been considered the ideal alga to investigate photoreceptive responses and systems, and it has been the subject of hundreds of articles.
