Clinical characteristics of acute zonal occult outer retinopathy in Chinese patientsZong Ming Song
Eye Hospital Affiliated to Wenzhou Medical College, Wenzhou, China
Ophthalmologica 222:149-56. 2008..To review the clinical features of acute zonal occult outer retinopathy (AZOOR) in Chinese patients...
Different functional types of bipolar cells use different gap-junctional proteinsBin Lin
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02114, USA
J Neurosci 25:6696-701. 2005..Some of the remaining GFP-negative bipolar cells expressed Cx45 but not Cx36. It appears that different types of ON cone bipolar cells express different connexins at their gap junctions with AII amacrine cells...
Remodeling of cone photoreceptor cells after rod degeneration in rd miceBin Lin
Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA 02114, USA
Exp Eye Res 88:589-99. 2009..Cone photoreceptors in retinas of human RP donors appear from their morphology to undergo a similar progression. The therapeutic window for rescue of cone photoreceptors may be longer than would have been thought...
Synaptic contacts between an identified type of ON cone bipolar cell and ganglion cells in the mouse retinaBin Lin
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, 50 Blossom Street, Wellman 429, Boston, MA 02114, USA
Eur J Neurosci 21:1257-70. 2005..Double labelling for kinesin II demonstrates colocalization of bipolar cell ribbons at the sites of contact between these two types of ganglion cell and the line 357 bipolar cells...
Synaptic input of ON-bipolar cells onto the dopaminergic neurons of the mouse retinaMassimo Contini
Department of Neurobiology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02115, USA
J Comp Neurol 518:2035-50. 2010..The presynaptic ON-bipolar cells most likely belonged to the CB3 (type 5) variety...
Populations of wide-field amacrine cells in the mouse retinaBin Lin
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02114, USA
J Comp Neurol 499:797-809. 2006..These cells are present at every level of the inner plexiform layer, which suggests that they affect most of the mouse retina's final outputs to the brain and, by implication, almost all visual function...
Restoration of visual function in retinal degeneration mice by ectopic expression of melanopsinBin Lin
Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Thier 429, 50 Blossom Street, Boston, MA 02114, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 105:16009-14. 2008..For therapy in human photodegenerations, channelrhodopsin-2 and melanopsin have different advantages and disadvantages; both proteins (or modifications of them) should be candidates...
Retinal ganglion cell type, size, and spacing can be specified independent of homotypic dendritic contactsBin Lin
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02114, USA
Neuron 43:475-85. 2004....
Glutamate receptors at bipolar synapses in the inner plexiform layer of primate retina: light microscopic analysisUlrike Grünert
Department of Physiology F13 and Institute for Biomedical Research, The University of Sydney, NSW 2006, Australia
J Comp Neurol 466:136-47. 2003..The NMDA receptor subunit NR1C2' was specifically colocalized with flat midget and DB3 axons. These findings suggest that rod and cone bipolar cell types contribute to multiple but distinct glutamate receptor pathways in primate retina...
Expression and distribution of ionotropic glutamate receptor subunits on parasol ganglion cells in the primate retinaBin Lin
Department of Physiology and Institute for Biomedical Research, University of Sydney, NSW, Australia
Vis Neurosci 19:453-65. 2002..They further suggest that the processes which control distribution of excitatory and inhibitory synapses on the dendritic field of ganglion cells are, at least to some extent, independent...
Theta stimulation polymerizes actin in dendritic spines of hippocampusBin Lin
Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior, University of California, Irvine, California 92617-1695, USA
J Neurosci 25:2062-9. 2005....
Integrins regulate NMDA receptor-mediated synaptic currentsBin Lin
Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior, University of California, Irvine 92612 1695, USA
J Neurophysiol 89:2874-8. 2003..Integrins regulate Src kinases that are known to phosphorylate NMDA receptors. It is concluded that integrins act through this route to exert potent modulatory effects on the operation of NMDA receptors...
