Protein and signaling networks in vertebrate photoreceptor cells [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2015 Vertebrate photoreceptor cells are exquisite light detectors operating under very dim and bright illumination. The photoexcitation and adaptation machinery in photoreceptor cells consists of protein complexes that can form highly ordered supramolecular ...

A Müller Glia‐Retinal Pigment Epithelium Apical Network Surrounding Cone Outer Segments in Fish and Mouse [PDF]
Glia, Volume 74, Issue 12, December 2026.Müller glia and the retinal pigment epithelium interact around cone outer segment in the subretinal space of both zebrafish and mouse. The contacts are established early during development but subsequent to outer segment emergence. ABSTRACT Homeostasis of the vertebrate retina critically depends on two non‐neuronal cell populations, Müller glia and the

Patterns of Proliferation in the Pacific Hagfish (Eptatretus stoutii) Retina Suggest an Ancient Origin for Adult Neurogenesis [PDF]
Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 10, October 2026.The hagfish, a jawless early‐branching vertebrate, has very rudimentary eyes that are diminutive and oddly devoid of melanin pigment. Yet, the degenerate hagfish eye grows throughout life and expresses canonical genes of vertebrate retinal development. ABSTRACT Comparative morphology has revealed fascinating structural and organizational differences in

Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: In the vertebrate retina, cone photoreceptors play crucial roles in photopic vision by transmitting light-evoked signals to ON- and/or OFF-bipolar cells.

The Musashi 1 Controls the Splicing of Photoreceptor-Specific Exons in the Vertebrate Retina. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2016 Alternative pre-mRNA splicing expands the coding capacity of eukaryotic genomes, potentially enabling a limited number of genes to govern the development of complex anatomical structures.

Monoaminergic modulation of photoreception in ascidian: evidence for a proto-hypothalamo-retinal territory [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2012 Background The retina of craniates/vertebrates has been proposed to derive from a photoreceptor prosencephalic territory in ancestral chordates, but the evolutionary origin of the different cell types making the retina is disputed.

A cell atlas of the chick retina based on single-cell transcriptomics
eLife, 2021 Retinal structure and function have been studied in many vertebrate orders, but molecular characterization has been largely confined to mammals. We used single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to generate a cell atlas of the chick retina.

PLoS ONE, 2022 Cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) cation channels are important heterotetrameric proteins in the retina, with different subunit composition in cone and rod photoreceptor cells: three CNGA3 and one CNGB3 in cones and three CNGA1 and one CNGB1 in rods.

Notch pathway mutants do not equivalently perturb mouse embryonic retinal development.
PLoS Genetics, 2023 In the vertebrate eye, Notch ligands, receptors, and ternary complex components determine the destiny of retinal progenitor cells in part by regulating Hes effector gene activity. There are multiple paralogues for nearly every node in this pathway, which
