Abstract
Light responsiveness of the vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) content in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the rat with pupils dilated by atropine was examined by enzyme immunoassay. After exposure to 6 h light at 3-1000 lux VIP levels in the SCN decreased as a monotonic function with a wor...
