This review summarizes our current knowledge of primate including human retina focusing
on bipolar, amacrine and ganglion cells and their connectivity. We have two main …

Three approaches to study the function of mammalian rod bipolar cells are described.
Extracellular recordings from the intact cat eye under light-and dark-adapted conditions …

Retinal horizontal cells of four rodent species, rat, mouse, gerbil, and guinea pig were
examined to determine whether they conform to the basic pattern of two horizontal cell types …

The question of whether the large area occupied by the primate fovea in the visual cortex
(VI) is the result of a selective amplification of the central visual field, or whether it merely …

An antibody directed against protein kinase C (PKC) was applied to various mammalian
retinae. In the cat, rat, rabbit, and macaque monkey we found PKC‐like immunoreactivity in …

Cone pedicles, the synaptic terminals of cone photoreceptors, are connected in the
macaque monkey retina to several hundred postsynaptic dendrites. Using light and electron …

Human, macaque monkey, and rat retinas were immunostained with a polyclonal antibody
preparation against purified recoverin, a 23-kD calcium-binding protein isolated from bovine …

A light microscope study using postembedding immunocytochemistry techniques to
demonstrate the common neurotransmitter candidates gamma‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) …

A somatodendritic gradient of Cl− concentration ([Cl−] i) has been postulated to generate
GABA-evoked responses of different polarity in retinal bipolar cells, hyperpolarizing in OFF …

Pattern recognition of amino acid signals partitions virtually all of the macaque retina into 16
separable biochemical theme classes, some further divisible by additional criteria. The …
