Cui Q, Ren C, Sollars P, Pickard G, So K
Neuroscience . 2014 Dec; 284:845-853. PMID: 25446359
Neurons in the mammalian retina expressing the photopigment melanopsin have been identified as a class of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs). This discovery more than a decade ago has...

Belenky M, Sollars P, Mount D, Alper S, Yarom Y, Pickard G
Neuroscience . 2009 Nov; 165(4):1519-37. PMID: 19932740
The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is a circadian oscillator and biological clock. Cell-to-cell communication is important for synchronization among SCN neuronal oscillators and the great majority of SCN neurons use GABA...

Kamasawa N, Furman C, Davidson K, Sampson J, Magnie A, Gebhardt B, et al.
Neuroscience . 2006 Oct; 142(4):1093-117. PMID: 17010526
Neuronal gap junctions are abundant in both outer and inner plexiform layers of the mammalian retina. In the inner plexiform layer (IPL), ultrastructurally-identified gap junctions were reported primarily in the...

Belenky M, Pickard G
J Comp Neurol . 2001 Mar; 432(3):371-88. PMID: 11246214
The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), a circadian oscillator, receives glutamatergic afferents from the retina and serotonergic (5-HT) afferents from the median raphe. 5-HT(1B) and 5-HT(7) receptor agonists inhibit the effects of...

Smith B, Sollars P, Dudek F, Pickard G
J Biol Rhythms . 2001 Feb; 16(1):25-38. PMID: 11220775
Serotonin (5-HT) and 5-HT receptor agonists can modify the response of the mammalian suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) to light. It remains uncertain which 5-HT receptor subtypes mediate these effects. The effects...
6.
Smith B, Banfield B, Smeraski C, Wilcox C, Dudek F, Enquist L, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2000 Aug; 97(16):9264-9. PMID: 10922076
Physiological properties of central nervous system neurons infected with a pseudorabies virus were examined in vitro by using whole-cell patch-clamp techniques. A strain of pseudorabies virus (PRV 152) isogenic with...

Rea M, Pickard G
Brain Res . 2000 Mar; 858(2):424-8. PMID: 10708696
Serotonin (5-HT) modulates the phase adjusting effects of light on the mammalian circadian clock through the activation of presynaptic 5-HT(1B) receptors located on retinal terminals in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN)....

Pickard G, Smith B, Belenky M, Rea M, Dudek F, Sollars P
J Neurosci . 1999 May; 19(10):4034-45. PMID: 10234032
The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) receives glutamatergic afferents from the retina and serotonergic afferents from the midbrain, and serotonin (5-HT) can modify the response of the SCN circadian oscillator to light....

Sollars P, Pickard G
Chronobiol Int . 1998 Oct; 15(5):513-33. PMID: 9787939
Destruction of the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) disrupts circadian behavior. Transplanting SCN tissue from fetal donors into SCN-lesioned recipients can restore circadian behavior to the arrhythmic hosts. In the transplantation...

Pickard G, Rea M
Biol Cell . 1998 Jun; 89(8):513-23. PMID: 9618901
Converging lines of evidence have firmly established that the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is a light-entrainable circadian oscillator in mammals, critically important for the expression of behavioral and physiological circadian...
