2010, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :A common feature of the SCN of all mammalian species studied is the bilateral innervation from the retina, except for some squirrel species, in which that innervation is described to be exclusively contralateral (Agarwala et al., 1989; Smale et al., 1991). The pattern of the retino-SCN innervation has been described as almost completely contralateral, predominantly ipsilateral, or with almost complete bilateral symmetry (Magnin et al., 1989; see comments in Costa et al., 1999). The functional significance of variability in the pattern of RHT innervation in the SCN remains unknown.
Segregated hemispheric pathways through the optic chiasm distinguish primates from rodents
2008, NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :All of the marmoset tissue used in this study was obtained from animals used primarily for other purposes. It came either at postmortem from animals used in unrelated physiology or anatomy studies, or from tissue already processed for a comparative study of the ocular innervation of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (Magnin et al., 1989; Mick et al., 1993). Optic fibers through the nerve and chiasm were stained in eight common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus).
Increased masking response to light after ablation of the visual cortex in mice
2003, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :With the inclusion of the present result, enhanced masking by light has now been found after damage to the visual system at three different levels: the retina, the thalamus, and the cortex. An enhanced response to light in an animal with extensive damage to its visual system can be understood if one distinguishes between a classical visual system for image perception and an irradiance detection system for telling night from day [19,10,2,14,8]. An additional assumption is necessary, that there is some interaction between these two systems [16,17].
