Intermittent long-wavelength red light increases the period of daily locomotor activity in mice

BACKGROUND: We observed that a dim, red light-emitting diode (LED) triggered by activity increased the circadian periods of lab mice compared to constant darkness. It is known that the circadian period of rats increases when vigorous wheel-running triggers full-spectrum lighting; however, spectral s...
