On and off pathways through amacrine cells in mammalian retina: The synaptic connections of “starburst” amacrine cells

Vision Research, 1983
The neural architecture of on and off pathways in mammalian retina is described, including the development of ideas leading to an understanding of the bisublaminar organization of the inner plexiform layer of the retina which supports these two pathways.

Cholinergic amacrine cells in the rabbit retina synapse onto other cholinergic amacrine cells

Neuroscience Letters, 1987
Cholinergic amacrine cells in the rabbit retina have been detected by localizing choline acetyltransferase-like immunoreactivity. The characteristic array of normally placed and displaced amacrine cells was detected, as were two major synaptic plexuses in the inner plexiform layer.

‘Starburst’ amacrine cells and cholinergic neurons: mirror-symmetric ON and OFF amacrine cells of rabbit retina

Brain Research, 1983
Golgi-impregnated 'starburst' amacrine cells share significant morphological features with cholinergic neurons in rabbit retina. They are mirror-symmetrical about the a/b (OFF/ON) sublaminar border of the inner plexiform layer. Type a starburst amacrines have cell bodies in the amacrine cell layer and dendrites in sublamina a, while type b cells have ...

Displaced amacrine cells of the mouse retina

Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2007
AbstractThe aim of this study was to characterize and classify the displaced amacrine cells in the mouse retina. Amacrine cells in the ganglion cell layer were injected with fluorescent dyes in flat‐mounted retinas. Dye‐filled displaced amacrine cells were classified according to dendritic field size, horizontal and vertical stratification patterns ...

Dopaminergic amacrine cells in the cat retina

Brain Research, 1982
Autoradiographic studies of cat retina showed an accumulation of [3H]dopamine in a subpopulation of amacrine cells whose process ramify in the outermost stratum of the inner plexiform layer. Dendrites of these cells are characterized by numerous varicosities measuring up to 2 micron in diameter which are connected by fine intervaricose segments.

Amacrine cells of the rhesus monkey retina

Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1990
AbstractAmacrine cells of the rhesus monkey, Macaca mulatta, were studied in 38 retinas Golgi‐impregnated as whole, flat preparations. By using criteria of dendritic morphology, span of arborization, and level of arborization in the inner plexiform layer, 26 types of amacrine cell ranging in size of dendritic span from 30 μm to 2 mm were identified and

Amacrine-to-Amacrine Cell Inhibition in the Rabbit Retina

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2008
We studied the interactions between excitation and inhibition in morphologically identified amacrine cells in the light-adapted rabbit retinal slice under patch clamp. The majority of on amacrine cells received glycinergic off inhibition. About half of the off amacrine cells received glycinergic on inhibition.

Amacrine cells, displaced amacrine cells and interplexiform cells in the retina of the rat

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1980
Abstract The amacrine cells in the retina of the rat are described in Golgi-stained whole-mounted retinae. Nine morphologically distinct types of cell were found: one type of diffuse cell, five types of unistratified cell, two types of bistratified cell, and one type of stratified diffuse cell.

Receptor targets of amacrine cells

Visual Neuroscience, 2012
AbstractAmacrine cells are a morphologically and functionally diverse group of inhibitory interneurons. Morphologically, they have been divided into approximately 30 types. Although this diversity is probably important to the fine structure and function of the retinal circuit, the amacrine cells have been more generally divided into two subclasses ...

Amacrine cells of the cat retina

Vision Research, 1981
INTRODUCTION Amacrine cells, the interneurons of the inner plexiform layer of the vertebrate retina, form both lateral and radial pathways amongst the bipolar and ganglion cells (Cajal, 1933). In fact, certain amacrine cells are elemental to the rod system of the mammalian retina (Kolb and Famiglietti, 1974).
