Calcium-dependent mechanisms in the chicken retina
Multiple classes of retinal amacrine cells use L-type Ca2+ channels to mediate synaptic transmission. I have used whole cell voltage clamp recordings from primary cultures of amacrine cells to investigate the regulation of these channels. In this study, I show that inhibiting mitochondrial calcium …

Studies on the cone pigment, iodopsin
… against iodopsin and other cone pigments in chicken retina: (1) specifically against iodopsin (cell line of 7D3); (2) against iodopsin and another cone pigment (cell lines of 2D4, 4G2, and 5E3); and (3) against iodopsin and other three cone pigments (cell line of 2C3). One dimensional …

Receptor-mediated calcium entry in retinal amacrine cells
In the vertebrate retina, multiple cell types express g protein-coupled receptors linked to phospholipase C. The signaling pathway engendered by activation of this enzyme can involve Ca<sup>2+</sup>-permeable transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. To begin to understand the role of these …

Glucose metabolism in the outer segments of photoreceptor cells : its involvement in the phototransduction process
… Immunofluorescence microscopy of bovine and chicken retina sections labeled with monoclonal antibodies against glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphoglycerate kinase, and lactate dehydrogenasehave confirmed that these enzymes are present in rod and cone outer segments and are not …
