	Cone cell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cone cells, or cones, are cells in the retina of the eye which only function in relatively bright light.
		Cones are less sensitive to light than the rod cells in the retina (which support vision at low light levels), but allow the perception of color.
		Neither rods nor cones divide, but their membranous disks wear out and are sloughed off at the end of the outer segment, to be consumed and recycled by phagocytic cells.

		The rhabdomeres of the cells R1–R6 are arranged in an asymmetric trapezoidal manner and extend the length of the retina.
		The cone cells extend into thin bag-like structures between the R cells and terminate at the floor of the retina where their feet contribute to the formation of the fenestrated basement membrane.
		This mispositioning of the R cells may be due to the defects in the fenestrated basement membrane caused by the abnormal number and organization of the cone cells and the disorganized pigment cell lattice (Shamloula, 2002).

	Color - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term "red cones" for the long-wavelength cones is deprecated as this type is actually maximally responsive to light we perceive as greenish, albeit longer wavelength light than that which maximally excites the mid-wavelength/"green" cones.
		The sensitivity curves of the cones are roughly bell-shaped, and overlap considerably.
		Note that the color experience of a given light mixture may vary with absolute luminosity, because both rods and cones are active at once in the eye, with each having different color curves, and rods taking over gradually from cones as the brightness of the scene is reduced.

		This page is intended to provide information about my cone-horizontal cell model, a neural circuit simulation that allows a user to construct a realistic biophysically-based model of an array of cones and two types of horizontal cells, and then run a physiology experiment on it.
		Cones and gap junctions are homologously coupled by gap junctions which spread the neural signals but reduce noise.
		The records are from a row of cones and horizontal cells along a radius from the central neurons underneath the stimulus.

		Cone mosaic in the fovea where the S-wave or blue cones are evident by size and density differences.
		Intracellular recordings from H2 horizontal cells in monkey retina have proved conclusively that this horizontal cell is blue sensitive and an important element of the S-cone pathway in the primate retina (Dacey et al., 1996).
		It has been demonstrated that horizontal cells produce negative feedback to cones (Baylor et al., 1971; Fuortes and Simon, 1974; Burkhardt, 1993) and are engaged in center surround generation in bipolar cells, and color opponent responses in horizontal cells of animals with good color vision (Fourtes and Simon 1974).

		At P21, cone cells were not observed in the remaining photoreceptor cells in the ONL of Tg98 mice (Figure 5).
		The absence of cone cells in Tg98 mice was confirmed by immunostaining for GNAT2 and the morphological criteria based on the heterochromatin pattern of the cone cells and their laminate location in the outer nuclear layer of the retina.
		Consistent with the cone cell distribution in mouse retina, the rod cell degeneration in Tg98 mice proceeding from the central retina to the peripheral retina.

		In the human retina the common cone bipolar cells are, like the cat, classified not only by the nature of their synapses with cone pedicles, but also by which sublamina of the IPL their axons terminate in.
		Thus, the negative feedback synapse of the horizontal cell to the cone photoreceptor at the ribbon triad synapse allows the larger receptive field of the horizontal cell network (horizontal cells are coupled in a syncytium across the retina by electrical synapses between neighboring cells.

	Cone cell - definition from Biology-Online.org
		in cones the photopigment is in invaginations of the cell membrane of the outer segment.
		cones are less sensitive to light than rods, and are differentially sensitive to particular wavelengths of light and therefore important for colour vision.
		They provide vision with higher spatial and temporal acuity, and it is the combination of signals from cones with different pigments that facilitates colour vision.
