The rabbit retinal Muller cell is one of the most widely studied glial cell types, and it has all forms of contacts that a glial cell can express, viz. 1) to a (ventricular) fluid space, 2) to a mesenchymal borderline (basal lamina), and 3) to neuronal compartments. This cell demonstrates the local

Glutamate is the most abundant excitatory amino acid in the central nervous system. It has also been described as a potent toxin when present in high concentrations because excessive stimulation of its receptors leads to neuronal death. Glial influence on neuronal survival has already been shown in

Previous studies in retinal glial (Mu ¨ller) cells have suggested that (1) the dominant membrane currents are mediated by K ϩ inward-rectifier (Kir) channels (Newman and Reichenbach, Trends Neurosci 19:307-312, 1996), and (2) rectification of these Kir channels is due largely to a block of outward c

## Abstract Retinal glial Müller cells are characterized by dominant K^+^ conductances. The cells may undergo changes of their membrane currents during ontogeny and gliosis as described in rabbit and man. Although the rat retina is often used in physiological experiments, the electrophysiology of r

There is recent evidence that polyamines such as spermine (spm) and spermidine (spd) may act as endogenous modulators of the activity of inwardly rectifying K+ channels. This type of K+ channels is abundantly expressed by retinal glial (Müller) cells where they are involved in important glial cell f
