The synaptic input to OFF-center alpha ganglion cells in the cat retina was analyzed by electron microscopic reconstruction to quantify the bipolar and amacrine cell input and to determine the neurotransmitter content of the presynaptic cells. Cone bipolar cells were found to comprise 11% of the tot
Parasol retinal ganglion cells are more sensitive to luminance contrast and respond more transiently at all levels of adaptation than midget ganglion cells. This may be due, in part, to differences between bipolar cells that provide their input, and the goal of these experiments was to study these d
## Abstract Mammalian retinal circuits are broadly divided into rod and cone pathways, responsible for dark‐ and light‐adapted vision, respectively. The classic rod pathway employs a single type of rod bipolar cell, which synapses with AII amacrine cells. AII amacrine cells then pass the signal to
