Complexity of retinal cone bipolar cells [PDF]

open access: yesProgress in Retinal and Eye Research, 2010
An open issue of retinal organization and function is the comprehension of the different tasks specifically performed by bipolar cells, the neurons that collect information from photoreceptors in the outer retina and convey the signal to the inner plexiform layer.

Retinal bipolar cells

open access: yesScience Bulletin, 1999
Being the functional basis of neural networks, neuronal signal integration has been currently becoming a hot point of neuroscience research. Active and passive membrane properties of retinal bipolar cells, temporal and spatial distribution of synaptic inputs to these cells are described, and modulation of signal integration characteristics of these ...

NO signaling in retinal bipolar cells

Experimental Eye Research, 2017
Nitric oxide (NO) is a neuromodulator involved in physiological and pathological processes in the retina. In the inner retina, a subgroup of amacrine cells have been shown to synthesize NO, but bipolar cells remain controversial as NO sources. This study correlates NO synthesis in dark-adapted retinas, through labeling with the NO marker DAF-FM, with ...

Retinal bipolar cells: elementary building blocks of vision

Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2014
Retinal bipolar cells are the first ‘projection neurons’ of the vertebrate visual system—all of the information needed for vision is relayed by this intraretinal connection. Each of the at least 13 distinct types of bipolar cells systematically transforms the photoreceptor input in a different way, thereby generating specific channels that encode ...

The role of the bipolar cell in retinal signal processing

Conference Proceedings., IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, 2003
Bipolar cells in the retina of the tiger salamander were studied by intracellular recording. Their receptive fields consisted of a central region and a surround which, when stimulated, antagonized the response of the center. The spatial distributions of the center and surround components were determined, using drugs that selectively eliminated the ...

ON-Retinal Bipolar Cell Survival in RCS Rats

Current Eye Research, 2010
In retinitis pigmentosa (RP), the slow and progressive death of inner retinal neurons is thought to be inevitable after the death of photoreceptors. However, even in the advanced stage of RP, all inner retinal neurons are not completely lost. The morphological and electrophysiological modifications in ON-retinal bipolar cells (ON-RBCs) of Royal College

Remodelling of retinal on‐ and off‐bipolar cells following experimental retinal detachment

Clinical & Experimental Ophthalmology, 2013
AbstractBackgroundTo study the response of ON and OFF bipolar cells in experimental retinal detachment.MethodsDomestic cat retinas were detached for 7 days. The retinas were prepared for immunocytochemical staining with antibodies to Go alpha (α), glutamate transporter GLT‐1, protein kinase C and rod opsin, which serve as markers for ON bipolar cells ...
