Diurnal cone photoreceptor contributions to the human pupil light reflex.
<p>(A) Baseline pupil diameter of 11 participants (mean Β± s.e.m)
viewing a uniform photopic screen, recorded over 20β24 hours
(linear model, line R<sup>2</sup>>1.00). (B) Average maximum pupil
constriction (488 nm) for 11 participants (Β±s.e.m) analysed as

constriction (610 nm) for 11 participants (Β± s.e.m). Direct outer
retinal cone photoreceptor contributions to the pupil do not vary

Circadian variation of the ipRGC controlled post-illumination pupil response of the pupil light reflex.
<p>Left and right columns show pupil light reflex data for two participants
(19yo F, 18yo M). Left ordinates show pupil diameter (%
baseline), right ordinates show pupil diameter (mm). (A)
Post-illumination pupil responses at three circadian times were
75.0% (3.5 h), 83.2% (9.4 h) and 92.5% (15.4 h) of
the mean baseline pupil diameter of 7.77 mm. The pupil light reflex
(thin lines) was described by best-fitting linear and exponential
functions (thick lines). (B) Post-illumination pupil responses of
71.4% (5.4 h), 77.0% (10.4 h) and 99.6% (15.4 h) of
the mean baseline pupil diameter of 6.68 mm. (C) The post-illumination
component of the pupil light reflex fitted with a skewed baseline cosine
function (Eq 1) (data show mean Β± s.d; filled circles; model,
line) (R<sup>2</sup>β=β079). (D) As for panel (C)
for participant 2 (18 yo M) (R<sup>2</sup>β=β0.71).
Post-illumination pupil response (blue lines) from <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0017860#pone-0017860-g002" target="_blank">Figure 2B</a> at 5.4 h and 15.4 h. Insets
in panel (C) and (D) show the post-illumination pupil response (blue
lines) from panel (A) at 3.5 and 15.4 h.</p
Comparison of the circadian response of intrinsic ipRGC and cone inputs to the post-illumination pupil response (PIPR) with salivary melatonin.
<p>Symbols (nβ=β11 participants; mean Β± s.e.m)
and lines (mean skewed baseline cosine function; Eq 1) encode intrinsic
ipRGC (blue) and cone inputs (red) to the ipRGC controlled PIPR and
salivary melatonin (black). Arrows indicate threshold change in activity
based on the group model. (A) PIPR diameter (488 nm stimulus) began to
increase at 10:50 h and peaked at 14:58 h (blue arrows)
(R<sup>2</sup>β=β0.65). (B) PIPR diameter (688 nm
stimulus) began to increase at 9:16 h and peaked at 15:18 h (red arrows)
(R<sup>2</sup>β=β0.80). (C) Salivary melatonin
began to increase at 13:30 h and peaked at 18:40 circadian hours (red
arrows) (R<sup>2</sup>β=β0.96), 2:40 hours after
PIPR (488 nm) began to increase. For the best-fitting salivary melatonin
curve (Eq 1), <i>(b)</i>β=β4.54 pM; peak
amplitude above baseline
<i>(H)</i>β=β65.40 pM; width
<i>(c)</i>β=ββ0.091; phase
<i>(Ξ¦)</i>β=β11.46 radians and
skewness <i>(v)</i>β=β0.302. (D)
Re-dilation kinetics (mm.s<sup>β1</sup>) derived from the
time-constant of the best-fitting exponential functions to the 488 nm
PIPR. (E) Re-dilation kinetics (mm.s<sup>β1</sup>) for the 610 nm
PIPR. Change in post-illumination pupil response amplitude and kinetics
independent of the constant external illumination demonstrates circadian
control of ipRGC activity.</p
