The dynamic properties of single pineal photoreceptors of Lampetra japonica were measured intracellularly by sinusoidal modulated light stimuli and a similarity to the receptor response of the vertebrate lateral eye was observed.
Abstract
The dynamic properties of single pineal photoreceptors of Lampetra japonica were measured intracellularly by sinusoidal modulated light stimuli. According to the Bode plots the response amplitude and phase characteristic of pineal photoreceptors could be simulated by a linear model with 4th-order transfer function. A similarity to the receptor response of the vertebrate lateral eye was observed.
