Signaling Mechanisms That Control Gap Junctional Coupling Between Retinal Neurons
… of retinal neurons, including the Cx36-coupled AII amacrine cell in the primary rod circuit, is a hallmark of retinal luminance adaptation. However, very little is known about the mechanisms regulating dynamic modulation of Cx36-mediated coupling. The primary goal of this work was to understand …

Expression of microbial rhodopsins in retinal neurons with subcellular targeting motifs: for the study of the structure/function of aii amacrine cells and for vision restoration
… motifs serve as addresses for subcellular protein localization. This feature of targeting-motifs was used to study the retina. The first part of the dissertation reports in the axonless spiking AII amacrine cell of the mammalian retina a dendritic process sharing organizational and …

Direct Inputs to off Α and G9 Ganglion Cells From Aii Amacrine Cells In Rabbit Retina
In the mammalian retina, AII amacrine cells are essential in the rod pathway for dark-adapted vision. But they also have a “day job”, to provide inhibitory inputs to certain OFF ganglion cells in photopic conditions. This is known as crossover inhibition. Physiological evidence from several …
