Organization of the primate retina: electron microscopy
The retinae of monkey and man have been studied by electron microscopy to identify cell types, their processes and synaptic contacts. In the inner plexiform layer, the morpholog...
The Types of Retinal Ganglion Cells: Current Status and Implications for Neuronal Classification
In the retina, photoreceptors pass visual information to interneurons, which process it and pass it to retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Axons of RGCs then travel through the optic...
Characterization of an amacrine cell type of the mammalian retina immunoreactive for vesicular glutamate transporter 3
Abstract Immunocytochemical staining of vertical sections through rat, mouse, and macaque monkey retinae with antibodies against the vesicular glutamate transporter vesicular gl...
Development of excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters in transitory cholinergic neurons, starburst amacrine cells, and GABAergic amacrine cells of rabbit retina, with implications for previsual and visual development of retinal ganglion cells
Abstract Starburst amacrine cells (SACs), the only acetylcholine (ACh)-releasing amacrine cells (ACs) in adult rabbit retina, contain GABA and are key elements in the retina’s d...
The Major Cell Populations of the Mouse Retina
We report a quantitative analysis of the major populations of cells present in the retina of the C57 mouse. Rod and cone photoreceptors were counted using differential interfere...
