Classical Photoreceptors Are Primarily Responsible for the Pupillary Light Reflex in Mouse.
Pupillary light reflex (PLR) is an important clinical tool to assess the integrity of visual pathways. The available evidence suggests that melanopsin-expressing retinal ganglion cells (mRGCs) mediate PLR-driven by the classical photoreceptors (rods and cones) at low irradiances and by melanopsin ac...
