Light-Induced Responses of Slow Oscillatory Neurons of the Rat Olivary Pretectal Nucleus

BACKGROUND: The olivary pretectal nucleus (OPN) is a small midbrain structure responsible for pupil constriction in response to eye illumination. Previous electrophysiological studies have shown that OPN neurons code light intensity levels and therefore are called luminance detectors. Recently, we d...
