The origin of retinal bipolar cells Retinal bipolar cells share a large repertoire of features with rod and cone photoreceptors. Structurally, retinal bipolar cells have the same 'bipolar' shape ...
With one interesting exception, gap junctions are not directly responsible for the 'vertical' transmission of visual information from photoreceptors through bipolar and ganglion cells to the brain.
This observation is puzzling for two reasons: photoreceptors are known to use graded ‘analog’-type signals to ... (2015) Dopamine modulation of rod pathway signaling by suppression of GABAC feedback ...
