Tracer coupling patterns of the ganglion cell subtypes in the mouse retinaBela Volgyi
Department of Ophthalmology, New York University School of Medicine, New York, New York 10016, USA
J Comp Neurol 512:664-87. 2009..Our results indicate that electrical coupling is extensive in the inner retina of the mouse, suggesting 0..- Connexin36 is required for gap junctional coupling of most ganglion cell subtypes in the mouse retinaFeng Pan
Department of Ophthalmology, New York University School of Medicine, New York, New York 10016, USA
J Comp Neurol 518:911-27. 2010.... - Morphology and tracer coupling pattern of alpha ganglion cells in the mouse retinaBela Volgyi
Department of Ophthalmology, New York University School of Medicine, New York, New York 10016, USA
J Comp Neurol 492:66-77. 2005..However, a subset of the heterologous coupling of ON alpha cells and all the heterologous coupling of OFF alpha cells are eliminated in the KO retina, suggesting that Cx36 comprises most of the junctions made with amacrine cells... - Masked excitatory crosstalk between the ON and OFF visual pathways in the mammalian retinaReza Farajian
Department of Physiology, New York University School of Medicine, 550 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016, USA
J Physiol 589:4473-89. 2011.... 
Response properties of a unique subtype of wide-field amacrine cell in the rabbit retinaStewart A Bloomfield
Departments of Ophthalmology and Physiology and Neuroscience, New York University School of Medicine, New York, New York 10016, USA
Vis Neurosci 24:459-69. 2007..In addition, the active propagation of signals suggests that synaptic inputs are integrated both locally and globally within the dendritic arbor...- Feedback inhibition in the inner plexiform layer underlies the surround-mediated responses of AII amacrine cells in the mammalian retinaBela Volgyi
Department of Ophthalmology, New York University School of Medicine, 550 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016, USA
J Physiol 539:603-14. 2002..Taken together, our results suggest that surround receptive fields of AII amacrine cells are generated indirectly by the GABAergic, reciprocal feedback synapses from S1/S2 amacrine cells to the axon terminals of rod bipolar cells... - Convergence and segregation of the multiple rod pathways in mammalian retinaBela Volgyi
Department of Ophthalmology, New York University School of Medicine, New York, New York 10016, USA
J Neurosci 24:11182-92. 2004..Overall, our data show a complex arrangement of convergence and segregation of rod inputs to ganglion cells in the mammalian retina... - Function and plasticity of homologous coupling between AII amacrine cellsStewart A Bloomfield
Department of Ophthalmology, New York University School of Medicine, 550 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016, USA
Vision Res 44:3297-306. 2004..Further, the conductance of AII-AII cell gap junctions is highly dynamic, regulated by ambient light conditions, thereby preserving the fidelity of rod signaling over the scotopic operating range from starlight to twilight... - GABA blockade unmasks an OFF response in ON direction selective ganglion cells in the mammalian retinaJessica M Ackert
Department of Physiology and Neuroscience, New York University School of Medicine, 550 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016, USA
J Physiol 587:4481-95. 2009..We propose that OFF inputs to ON DS cells are normally masked by a GABAergic inhibition, but are unmasked under certain stimulus conditions to mediate optokinetic signals in the brain... - Light increases the gap junctional coupling of retinal ganglion cellsEdward H Hu
Department of Physiology and Neuroscience, New York University School of Medicine, 550 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016, USA
J Physiol 588:4145-63. 2010.... - Axonal neurofilament-H immunolabeling in the rabbit retinaBela Volgyi
Department of Ophthalmology, New York University School of Medicine, New York, New York 10016, USA
J Comp Neurol 453:269-79. 2002..These results thus support the idea that certain subtypes of amacrine and horizontal cells maintain true axons in the mammalian retina... - The diverse functional roles and regulation of neuronal gap junctions in the retinaStewart A Bloomfield
Department of Physiology and Neuroscience, New York University School of Medicine, 550 First Avenue, New York, New York 10016, USA
Nat Rev Neurosci 10:495-506. 2009..The networks formed by electrically coupled neurons are plastic and reconfigurable, and those in the retina are positioned to play key and diverse parts in the transmission and processing of visual information at every retinal level... - A unique role for Kv3 voltage-gated potassium channels in starburst amacrine cell signaling in mouse retinaAnder Ozaita
Department of Physiology and Neuroscience, New York University School of Medicine, New York, New York 10016, USA
J Neurosci 24:7335-43. 2004..We hypothesize that this Kv3 channel gradient contributes to the preference for centrifugal signal flow in dendrites underlying direction-selective GABA release from starburst amacrine cells..
