The morphology, distribution, and coverage of certain cone bipolar cell types were investigated in rabbit retina. Brief in vitro incubation of isolated rabbit retina in the fluorescent dye 4,6‐diamino‐2‐phenylindole labeled only a few cell types in the inner nuclear layer. Intracellular injection of Lucifer Yellow into these types showed them to be horizontal cells and cone bipolar cells. All stained bipolar cells ramified in sublamina a of the inner plexiform layer (IPL) and formed three…

Types of bipolar cells in the mouse retina
TLDR
The morphology of bipolar cells in fixed vertical tissue sections of the mouse retina is studied by injecting the cells with Lucifer Yellow and Neurobiotin and the bipolar cell types described here were compared with previous schemes of rat and primate bipolar cells.
The population of bipolar cells in the rabbit retina
The population of bipolar cells in the rabbit retina was studied using Golgi impregnation and photocatalyzed filling of single cells with dihydrorhodamine, a quantitative sampling technique. The…
Immunocytochemical identification of cone bipolar cells in the rat retina
TLDR
In addition to the rod bipolar cell, nine different putative cone bipolar cell types were distinguished according to the position of their somata in the inner nuclear layer and the branching pattern and stratification level of their axon terminals in theinner plexiform layer.
Distribution and coverage of A- and B-type horizontal cells stained with Neurobiotin in the rabbit retina.
TLDR
A-type horizontal cells in the visual streak whose elliptical dendritic fields were shown by Bloomfield (1992) to correlate physiologically with orientation bias were shown to be dye-coupled to cells with symmetrical dendrite fields.
Morphologic identification of the OFF-type blue cone bipolar cell in the rabbit retina.
TLDR
Both ON and OFF blue cone bipolar cells are responsible for color information transmission in the rabbit retina, and the authors have identified the OFF-typeblue cone bipolar cell in this study.
Costratification of a population of bipolar cells with the direction‐selective circuitry of the rabbit retina
TLDR
A new population of bipolar cells in rabbit retina is stained by using antibodies against the carbohydrate epitope, CD15, demonstrating that the CD15‐positive bipolar cells are a separate population from the previously identified calbindin‐positive cone bipolar cells and the rod bipolar cells.
Connections of two types of flat cone bipolars in the rabbit retina
The synaptic connections of two types of cone bipolar cells in the rabbit retina were studied with the electron microscope after labeling in vitro with 4′,6‐diamidino‐2‐phenylindole (DAPI),…
A calbindin‐immunoreactive cone bipolar cell type in the rabbit retina
TLDR
The tight stratification of the calbindin cone bipolar cell suggests that the inner plexiform layer is stratified according to depth, with narrow functional divisions within the broad partition of sublamina b, where ON signals are processed.
Wide-field cone bipolar cells and the blue-ON pathway to color-coded ganglion cells in rabbit retina
TLDR
The wb axon terminal is shown here to co-stratify with and to make close, likely synaptic, contacts with the dendrites of a recently described morphological subtype of class II ganglion cell in rabbit retina, IIb2.
Cone Contacts, Mosaics, and Territories of Bipolar Cells in the Mouse Retina
TLDR
The quantitative analysis suggests that the proposed catalog of 11 cone bipolar cells and one rod bipolar cell is complete, and all major bipolar cell types of the mouse retina appear to have been discovered.

Morphological Classification of Bipolar Cells of the Primate Retina
TLDR
The data show that the P‐ and M‐cell pathways of the primate visual system are, to a significant extent, already anatomically discrete at the photoreceptor synapse.

TLDR
Light microscopy shows by light microscopy that labeled bipolar cells have dendrites ending exclusively upon presumptive blue cones labeled by Procion black dye, which suggests that there are additional types of bipolar cells conveying information from short- wavelength cones in the primate retina.
The morphology and topographic distribution of AII amacrine cells in the cat retina

TLDR
Although the A ll amacrines are principal interneurons in the rod-signal pathway, their density distribution does not follow the topography of the rod receptors, but peaks in the central area like the cone receptors and the ganglion cells.
Labeling and distribution of AII amacrine cells in the rabbit retina
TLDR
The fluorescent dye 4,6‐diamino‐2‐phenylindole (DAPI) has previously been used to label starburst amacrine cells selectively in the rabbit retina and AII amacine cells in the cat retina and, after a brief in vitro incubation with DAPI, AII are selectively labeled.
Intracellular staining reveals different levels of stratification for on- and off-center ganglion cells in cat retina.
TLDR
No other morphological feature except stratification appears to be important in determining the sign of the response of these cells, and the nature of the rod and cone pathways to ganglion cells is discussed.
Bipolar cells in monkey retina selective for the cones likely to be blue-sensitive
TLDR
A bipolar cell found in Golgi preparations of the rhesus monkey retina is described which displays an apparently selective and patterned distribution of its dendritic contacts with cone pedicles in the outer plexiform layer.

TLDR
A new and remarkable type of amacrine cell has been identified in the primate retina that has multiple axons that arise from the dendritic tree and project beyond it to form a second, morphologically distinct arborization within the inner plexiform layer (IPL).

  • 1984
TLDR
The results show that the coronate amacrines in the ganglion cell layer are type b starburst cells, and that those DAPI-labelled neurones in the inner nuclear layer with a coronate-like nuclear morphology are type a star Burst cells.
