Rapid communication Blue light improves cognitive performance
Brainard et al. (2001) and Thapan et al. (2001) reported a non-visual photoreceptor system in humans, that is closely interlinked with circadian rhythms. It works independently of the scotopic and photopic photoreceptor systems and is intact in some individuals with amaurosis as well as with red–green color blindness (Lockley et al., 2006). The circadian photoreceptor system responds most sensi...
متن کاملPlant blue-light receptors.
Plants have several blue-light receptors, which regulate different aspects of growth and development. Recent studies have identified three such receptors: cryptochrome 1, cryptochrome 2 and phototropin. Cryptochromes 1 and 2 are photolyase-like receptors that regulate hypocotyl growth and flowering time; phototropin mediates phototropism in response to blue light. In addition, phytochrome A has...
متن کاملBlue light hazard and aniridia.
The fundi of three patients with aniridia were photographed with a 470 nm illuminating light source. No apparent change in contrast was observable throughout the macular region. This would suggest an absence of the macular pigment. The likelihood of aniridics being more susceptible than normal persons to blue light damage is discussed.
متن کاملEnhancement of blue-light sensitivity of Arabidopsis seedlings by a blue light receptor cryptochrome 2.
Cryptochrome is a group of flavin-type blue light receptors that regulate plant growth and development. The function of Arabidopsis cryptochrome 2 in the early photomorphogenesis of seedlings was studied by using transgenic plants overexpressing CRY2 protein, and cry2 mutant plants accumulating no CRY2 protein. It is found that cryptochrome 2 mediates blue light-dependent inhibition of hypocoty...
متن کاملShedding (blue) light on algal gene expression.
L ight in the blue region of the spectrum [blue light (BL), 400– 480 nm] is an ubiquitous environmental signal. BL can penetrate marine water to a depth greater than all other wavelengths, up to the limits of the photic zone ( 1,500 m depth) and may be linked to the evolution of photosynthesis (1). BL is also potentially dangerous because it is readily absorbed by intracellular photosensitizers...
