Experimental studies of photostimulation of the visual analyzer by combinations of red, green, blue, and yellow colors in a pulsed mode were carried out. Significant improvement of a visual acuity is shown after photostimulation course in patients with macular degeneration and degenerative changes of the optic nerve.

Spiking activity along synaptic circuits linking primary somatosensory (S1) and motor (M1) areas is fundamental for sensorimotor integration in cortex. Circuits along the ascending somatosensory pathway through mouse hand/forelimb S1 and M1 were recently described in detail (Yamawaki et al., 2021).

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to examine the impact of a combined laser treatment technique (SWG) and ranibizumab injections on key eye health metrics in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).
- A total of 45 eyes from 33 patients received this treatment over 12 months, monitoring changes in central subfield thickness (CSFT), visual acuity (BCVA), and macular sensitivity through regular examinations.
- Results showed significant improvements in CSFT, BCVA, and macular sensitivity after one year, with no adverse effects reported from the treatments administered.

Observation of neural firing patterns can constrain theories for the types of activity patterns that the brain uses to guide behavior. However, directly perturbing these patterns, ideally with great specificity, is required to causally test any particular theory. We combined two-photon imaging and cellular resolution optogenetic photo-stimulation to causally test how neural activity in the mouse visual cortex is read out to detect visual stimuli.

Background: Closed-loop behavior paradigms enable us to dissect the state-dependent neural circuits underlying behavior in real-time. However, studying context-dependent locomotor perturbations has been challenging due to limitations in molecular tools and techniques for real-time manipulation of spinal cord circuits.
New Method: We developed a novel closed-loop optogenetic stimulation paradigm that utilizes DeepLabCut-Live pose estimation to manipulate primary sensory afferent activity at specific phases of the locomotor cycle in mice.

Significance: Many techniques exist for screening retinal phenotypes in mouse models in vision research, but significant challenges remain for efficiently probing higher visual centers of the brain. Photoacoustic computed tomography (PACT), with optical sensitivity to hemodynamic response (HR) in brain and ultrasound resolution, provides unique advantages in comprehensively assessing higher visual function in the mouse brain.
Aim: We aim to examine the reliability of PACT in the functional phenotyping of mouse models for vision research.
