Retinal Cone Photoreceptor Cells MeSH Descriptor Data 2024

MeSH Heading: Retinal Cone Photoreceptor Cells
Tree Number(s): A08.675.650.850.625.670.100; A08.675.650.915.937.670.100; A08.800.950.937.670.100; A09.371.729.831.625.670.100; A11.671.650.850.625.670.100; A11.671.650.915.937.670.100
Unique ID: D017949
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D017949
Scope Note: Photosensitive afferent neurons located primarily within the FOVEA CENTRALIS of the MACULA LUTEA. There are three major types of cone cells (red, blue, and green) whose photopigments have different spectral sensitivity curves. Retinal cone cells operate in daylight vision (at photopic intensities) providing color recognition and central visual acuity.
