In biomedical research, opsin is a light-gated ion channel or transporter, such as cation selective channel rhodopsin and paleorhodopsin and anion permeable salt rhodopsin, which is mainly expressed in neuronal cell types in vivo. The temporal and spatial control of opsin activity by light reveals the different functions of different neurons and the key cellular mechanism of neural circuit and network construction in the brain. Light gated ion channels and transporters have been used in a wide range of excitable cells, including neurons, cardiomyocytes, skeletal muscle cells and pancreas β Cells, to elucidate their physiological and pathological effects, provide insights into new therapies for heart disease, muscle paralysis and diabetes.
