The protozoan ciliate Stentor coeruleus displays a step-up photophobic response to an increase in light intensity in its environment. The motile response consists of a delayed stop of ciliary beating and transient ciliary reversal period. Such light-avoiding behavior was significantly influenced by an incubation of cells with l-cis-diltiazem, a common blocker of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-gated ion channel conductance.
