Moderate white light exposure enhanced spatial memory retrieval by activating a central amygdala-involved circuit in mice
Abstract Light exposure can profoundly affect neurological functions and behaviors. Here, we show that short-term exposure to moderate (400 lux) white light during Y-maze test promoted spatial memory retrieval and induced only mild anxiety in mice. This beneficial effect involves the activation of a...
