Violet-light suppression of thermogenesis by Opsin 5

by Richard Lang | Sep 2, 2020 | Scientific Publication

Violet-light suppression of thermogenesis by Opsin 5 Here we describe a light-sensing pathway in which POA neurons that express Opn5 regulate thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue (BAT). We show that Opn5 is expressed in glutamatergic warm-sensing POA neurons that...

Neuropsin (OPN5) Mediates Local Light-Dependent Induction of Circadian Clock Genes and Circadian Photoentrainment in Exposed Murine Skin

by Richard Lang | Oct 21, 2019 | Scientific Publication

Neuropsin (OPN5) Mediates Local Light-Dependent Induction of Circadian Clock Genes and Circadian Photoentrainment in Exposed Murine Skin  Here, we assess the function of a population of melanocyte precursor cells in hair and vibrissal follicles that express the...

An opsin 5-dopamine pathway mediates light-dependent vascular development in the eye

by Richard Lang | Apr 21, 2019 | Scientific Publication

An opsin 5-dopamine pathway mediates light-dependent vascular development in the eye During mouse postnatal eye development, the embryonic hyaloid vascular network regresses from the vitreous as an adaption for high-acuity vision. This process occurs with precisely...
