The effects of ambient narrowband long-wavelength light on lens-induced myopia and form-deprivation myopia in tree shrews
Z She, AH Ward, TJ Gawne - Experimental eye research, 2023 - Elsevier
Here we examine the effects of ambient red light on lens-induced myopia and diffuser-
induced myopia in tree shrews, small diurnal mammals closely related to primates. Starting …

Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells in glaucoma
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases afflicting more than 70 million people worldwide. It is
characterized by damage to retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) that ultimately leads to the death …

Juvenile tree shrews do not maintain emmetropia in narrow-band blue light
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of narrow-band ambient
blue light on refractive state in juvenile tree shrews that had completed initial …

Molecular fingerprinting of on–off direction-selective retinal ganglion cells across species and relevance to primate visual circuits
The ability to detect moving objects is an ethologically salient function. Direction-selective
neurons have been identified in the retina, thalamus, and cortex of many species, but their …

A bright future for the tree shrew in neuroscience research: summary from the inaugural tree shrew users meeting
Tree shrews (Tupaia spp.) have been used in neuroscience research since the 1960s due to
their evolutionary proximity to primates. The use of and interest in this animal model have …

Melanopsin and calbindin immunoreactivity in the inner retina of humans and marmosets
In primate retina, the calcium-binding protein calbindin is expressed by a variety of neurons
including cones, bipolar cells, and amacrine cells but it is not known which type (s) of cell …
