Journal ArticleDOI
Synaptic Organization and Ionic Basis of On and Off Channels in Mudpuppy Retina III. A Model of Ganglion Cell Receptive Field Organization Based on Chloride-Free Experiments
TL;DR: Experimental tests of the on-off ganglion cell model favor the idea that this type of ganglions receives inhibitory input from amacrine cells and excitatory activation from depolarizing and hyperpolarizing bipolar cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
A physiological and morphological study of the horizontal cell types of the rabbit retina
TL;DR: A unique subclass of A‐type cells has been discovered (elongated or Ae type) which displayed the largest dendritic field of any cells studied here, yet had the smallest eccentricities—within 1.4 mm of the optic disk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibitory Interneurons in the Retina: Types, Circuitry, and Function*
TL;DR: Current ideas about horizontal cell signaling are reviewed, considering the evidence for and against the leading, competing theories, and recent work that has begun to make sense of the remarkable morphological and physiological diversity of amacrine cells is discussed.
Book ChapterDOI
Neuronal Mechanisms of Visual Movement Perception and Some Psychophysical and Behavioral Correlations
TL;DR: Visual movement perception has to be considered a special perceptual quality of the visual modality as color, brightness, size etc. are sensory qualities for the perception of thevisual world.
Journal ArticleDOI
The response properties of the steady antagonistic surround in the mudpuppy retina.
L N Thibos,F S Werblin +1 more
TL;DR: It is inferred that units with response and receptive field properties like those of the horizontal cells, when driven by surround illumination, act as interneurones to reset the relationship between required test flash intensity and response in bipolar and ganglion cells.
