Cone synapses in mammalian retinal rod bipolar cells [PDF]
AbstractSome mammalian rod bipolar cells (RBCs) can receive excitatory chemical synaptic inputs from both rods and cones (DBCR2), but anatomical evidence for mammalian cone‐RBC contacts has been sparse. We examined anatomical cone‐RBC contacts using neurobiotin (NB) to visualize individual mouse cones and standard immuno‐markers to identify RBCs, cone ...

Temporal order of bipolar cell genesis in the neural retina
Background Retinal bipolar cells comprise a diverse group of neurons. Cone bipolar cells and rod bipolar cells are so named for their connections with cone and rod photoreceptors, respectively.

Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) are characterized by progressive degeneration and loss of light-sensing photoreceptors. The most promising therapeutic approach for IRDs is gene supplementation therapy using viral vectors, which requires the presence

Nitric oxide modulates the temporal properties of the glutamate response in type 4 OFF bipolar cells. [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) is involved in retinal signal processing, but its cellular actions are only partly understood. An established source of retinal NO are NOACs, a group of nNOS-expressing amacrine cells which signal onto bipolar, other amacrine and ...

Labelling and targeted ablation of specific bipolar cell types in the zebrafish retina
Background Development of a functional retina depends on regulated differentiation of several types of neurons and generation of a highly complex network between the different types of neurons.

Long-term rearrangement of retinal structures in a novel mutation of X-linked retinoschisis [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to report a novel mutation in the retinoschisin 1 (RS1) gene in a Caucasian family affected by X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS) and to describe the long-term modification of retinal structure.

A Novel In Vitro Sensing Configuration for Retinal Physiology Analysis of a Sub-Retinal Prosthesis
This paper presents a novel sensing configuration for retinal physiology analysis, using two microelectrode arrays (MEAs). In order to investigate an optimized stimulation protocol for a sub-retinal prosthesis, retinal photoreceptor cells are stimulated,

Retinal diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are characterized by unrelenting neuronal death. However, electrical stimulation has been shown to induce neuroprotective changes in the retina capable of ...

Amacrine cells differentially balance zebrafish color circuits in the central and peripheral retina
Summary: The vertebrate inner retina is driven by photoreceptors whose outputs are already pre-processed; in zebrafish, outer retinal circuits split “color” from “grayscale” information across four cone-photoreceptor types.
