“We hypothesized that melatonin may influence retinal light adaptation by acting on AII cells directly and thus investigated whether melatonin receptors were expressed in AII neurons.”
“Not all frequencies of retinal light are equally effective at suppressing pineal melatonin ; most artificial lighting has less relevant spectral density than sunlight.”
“We hypothesize that retinal genes whose expression levels are altered in response to melatonin may be involved in processes that contribute to light‐induced photoreceptor cell death.”
