Color opponency in horizontal cells of the vertebrate retina

G Twig, H Levy, I Perlman - Progress in retinal and eye research, 2003 - Elsevier
Chromaticity (C-type) horizontal cells have been studied extensively for more than 40 years
since the first recording of such units in the fish retina. C-type horizontal cells are seen in …

Feedback from luminosity horizontal cells mediates depolarizing responses of chromaticity horizontal cells in the Xenopus retina.

P Witkovsky, R Gabriel, D Krizaj… - Proceedings of the …, 1995 - National Acad Sciences
It has been proposed that the depolarizing responses of chromaticity horizontal cells (C-
HCs) to red light depend on a feedback signal from luminosity horizontal cells (L-HCs) to …

Color opponency in cone-driven horizontal cells in carp retina. Aspecific pathways between cones and horizontal cells.

M Kamermans, BW Van Dijk… - The Journal of general …, 1991 - rupress.org
The spectral and dynamic properties of cone-driven horizontal cells in carp retina were

Response properties of C-type horizontal cells in the retina of the bowfin

J Gottesman, DA Burkhardt - Vision Research, 1987 - Elsevier
Intracellular recordings were obtained from biphasic-and triphasic-type horizontal cells (C
cells) in the retina of the bowfin. For steady-state responses, both cell types displayed a …

Specificity of the horizontal cell‐photoreceptor connections in the zebrafish (Danio rerio) retina

YN Li, JI Matsui, JE Dowling - Journal of Comparative …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Horizontal cells (HCs) are involved in establishing the center‐surround receptive field
organization of photoreceptor and bipolar cells. In many species, HCs respond differentially …

Influences of cones upon chromatic‐and luminosity‐type horizontal cells in pikeperch retinas.

DA Burkhardt, G Hassin - The Journal of Physiology, 1978 - Wiley Online Library
1. The spectral sensitivity and spatial organization of cones and horizontal cells have been
analysed by intracellular recording in pikeperch retinas. 2. The vast majority of cone …

Horizontal cells of the rabbit retina are non‐selectively connected to the cones

I Hack, L Peichl - European Journal of Neuroscience, 1999 - Wiley Online Library
Mammalian horizontal cells have generally been assumed to be spectrally non‐selective in
their cone contacts until recently, when specific contacts have been found for some species …

Different types of synapses with different spectral types of cones underlie color opponency in a bipolar cell of the turtle retina

S HAVERKAMP, W MOeCKEL… - Visual …, 1999 - cambridge.org
Electrophysiologically, color-opponent retinal bipolar cells respond with opposite polarities
to stimulation with different wavelengths of light. The origin of these different polarities in the …

The cone/horizontal cell network: A possible site for color constancy

M Kamermans, DA Kraaij, H Spekreijse - Visual neuroscience, 1998 - cambridge.org
Color vision is spectrally opponent, suggesting that spectrally opponent neurons, such as
the horizontal cells in fish and turtle retinae, play a prominent role in color discrimination. In …

Dark‐and light‐induced changes in coupling between horizontal cells in mammalian retina

D Xin, SA Bloomfield - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1999 - Wiley Online Library
Retinal horizontal cells exhibit large receptive fields derived from their extensive electrical
coupling by means of gap junctions. The conductance of these gap junctions seems to be …
