In the retina, modulation of the amplitude of dim visual signals primarily occurs at axon terminals of rod bipolar cells (RBCs). GABA and glycine inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors and the excitatory amino acid transporter 5 (EAAT5) modulate the R

Obesity predisposes to human type 2 diabetes, the most common cause of diabetic retinopathy. To determine if high-fat diet–induced diabetes in mice can model retinal disease, we weaned mice to chow or a high-fat diet and tested the hypothesis that

The retina is the first stage of visual processing. It encodes elemental features of visual scenes. Distinct cone bipolar cells provide the substrate for this to occur. They encode visual information, such as color and luminance, a principle known as

A fundamental question of cell signaling biology is how faint external signals produce robust physiological responses. One universal mechanism relies on signal amplification via intracellular cascades mediated by heterotrimeric G-proteins. This high

Bipolar cells (BCs) are critical relay neurons in the retina that are organized into parallel signaling pathways. The three main signaling pathways in the mammalian retina are the rod, ON cone, and OFF cone BCs. Rod BCs mediate incrementing dim light

Diverse retinal outputs are mediated by ganglion cells that receive excitatory input from distinct classes of bipolar cells (BCs). These classes of BCs separate visual signals into rod, ON and OFF cone pathways. Although BC signalling is a major dete

Members of the carbonic anhydrase (CA) family play an important role in the regulation of pH, CO2, ion, and water transport. CA IV and CA XIV are membrane-bound isozymes expressed in the eye. CA IV immunostaining is limited to the choriocapillaris ov

SummarySensory information is thought to be modulated by presynaptic inhibition. Although this form of inhibition is a well-studied phenomenon, it is still unclear what role it plays in shaping sensory signals in intact circuits. By visually stimulat

Rod bipolar cells relay visual signals evoked by dim illumination from the outer to the inner retina. GABAergic and glycinergic amacrine cells contact rod bipolar cell terminals, where they modulate transmitter release and contribute to the receptive
