Rod phototransduction and light signal transmission during type 2 diabetes.

Published in: BMJ open diabetes research & care (2021)

Our data suggest that long-term diabetes does not irreversibly change the ability of rod photoreceptors to transduce and mediate light signals. However, type 2 diabetes appears to induce adaptational changes in the rods that render them less sensitive to increased availability of glucose.
