RdgB2 is required for dim-light input into intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells. [PDF]

, 2015
A subset of retinal ganglion cells is intrinsically photosensitive (ipRGCs) and contributes directly to the pupillary light reflex and circadian photoentrainment under bright-light conditions.

Classification of Mouse Retinal Bipolar Cells: Type-Specific Connectivity with Special Reference to Rod-Driven AII Amacrine Pathways

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2017
We confirmed the classification of 15 morphological types of mouse bipolar cells by serial section transmission electron microscopy and characterized each type by identifying chemical synapses and gap junctions at axon terminals.

Decreased Expression of DREAM Promotes the Degeneration of Retinal Neurons. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The intrinsic mechanisms that promote the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) following the activation of N-Methyl-D-aspartic acid-type glutamate receptors (NMDARs) are unclear.

Retinal Processing: Insights from Mathematical Modelling

Journal of Imaging, 2022
The retina is the entrance of the visual system. Although based on common biophysical principles, the dynamics of retinal neurons are quite different from their cortical counterparts, raising interesting problems for modellers.

Monoaminergic modulation of photoreception in ascidian:evidence for a proto-hypothalamo-retinal territory [PDF]

, 2012
Background : The retina of craniates/vertebrates has been proposed to derive from a photoreceptor prosencephalic territory in ancestral chordates, but the evolutionary origin of the different cell types making the retina is disputed.

General features of the retinal connectome determine the computation of motion anticipation [PDF]

, 2015
Motion anticipation allows the visual system to compensate for the slow speed of phototransduction so that a moving object can be accurately located.

Human iPSC differentiation to retinal organoids in response to IGF1 and BMP4 activation is line- and method-dependent [PDF]

, 2020
Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)‐derived retinal organoids provide a platform to study human retinogenesis, disease modeling, and compound screening.

Ceramide is a Mediator of Apoptosis in Retina Photoreceptors [PDF]

, 2006
PURPOSE. The precise mechanisms involved in photoreceptor apoptosis are still unclear. We here investigated the role of ceramide, a sphingolipid precursor that induces apoptosis upon cellular stress, in activating this death in photoreceptors.

Glycinergic transmission in the mammalian retina

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2009
Glycine and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) are the major inhibitory neurotransmitters in the retina. Approximately half of the amacrine cells release glycine at their synapses with bipolar, other amacrine, and ganglion cells. Glycinergic amacrine cells
