Dopamine (DA) is a neuromodulator that in the retina adjusts the circuitry for visual
processing in dim and bright light conditions. It is synthesized and released from retinal …

In the vertebrate retina, dopamine is synthesized and released by a specialized type of
amacrine cell, the dopaminergic amacrine cell (DAC). DAC activity is stimulated by rods …

Retinal dopamine is a critical modulator of high acuity, light-adapted vision and
photoreceptor coupling in the retina. Dopaminergic amacrine cells (DACs) serve as the sole …

Retinal dopaminergic amacrine neurons (DA neurons) play a central role in reconfiguring
retinal function according to prevailing illumination conditions, yet the mechanisms by which …

Retinal dopamine is released by a specialized subset of amacrine cells in response to light
and has a potent influence on how the retina responds to, and encodes, visual information …

Dopamine is a key neurotransmitter in the retina and plays a central role in the light adaptive
processes of the visual system. The sole source of retinal dopamine is dopaminergic …

Dopaminergic amacrine cells (DACs) release dopamine in response to light‐driven synaptic
inputs, and are critical to retinal light adaptation. Retinal degeneration (RD) compromises …

The adaptation of ganglion cells to increasing light levels is a crucial property of the retina.
The retina must respond to light intensities that vary by 10–12 orders of magnitude, but the …

Dopamine (DA) is the major catecholamine in all vertebrate retinas including man. All
vertebrates have dopaminergic neurons identified as amacrine cells (ACs) and …

Dopaminergic neurons play key roles in the CNS, mediating basic mechanisms of vision,
movement, motivation, and mood. The most accessible dopaminergic neurons of the …
