Phenotyping of light-activated neurons in the mouse SCN based on the expression of FOS and EGR1

Light-sensitive neurons are located in the ventral and central core of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), whereas stably oscillating clock neurons are found mainly in the dorsal shell. Signals between the SCN core and shell are believed to play an important role in light entrainment. Core neurons ex...
