• and olivary pretectal nucleus (OPN) projections are eliminated, compared to controls
|
|
|
• innervation of the intergeniculate leaflet (IGL) is markedly reduced
|
|
|
• all non-M1 retinal ganglion cells are ablated in the retinas, with only about 200 Pou4f2-negative cells detected (200/2000); these remaining fibers innervated the SCN to the same extent as control Pou4f2tm2.1Nat/+ Opn4tm1.1(cre)Saha/+ animals

behavior/neurological
|
N |
• mutants are able to photoentrain (their circadian phase) like controls; also, activity
|
|
|
• the papillary light reflex (PLR) is significantly attenuated at high and low light intensities in the middle of the day (zeitgerber time 8, ZT8); in the middle of the night (ZT20), mice show no PLR
|
|
|
• animals show a minor deficit in period lengthening under constant light conditions
|
nervous system
|
|
• only 200 M1 (Pou4f2-negative) ipRGCs (intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells) are detected in the retinas
|
vision/eye
|
N |
• visual acuity is comparable to wild-type animals
|
|
|
• the papillary light reflex (PLR) is significantly attenuated at high and low light intensities in the middle of the day (zeitgerber time 8, ZT8); in the middle of the night (ZT20), mice show no PLR
