Cholinergic amacrine cells in the rat retina
Abstract
Staining of rat retinal wholemounts with a monoclonal antibody against choline-acetyl-transferase (ChAT) reveals two matching populations of amacrine cells in pigmented and albino rat retinae. One population has cell bodies in the inner nuclear layer (INL). Their dendrites are confined to a narrow stratum in the outer half of the inner plexiform layer (IPL). The other, displaced, population has cell bodies in the ganglion cell layer (GCL) with dendrites stratifying in the middle of the IPL. The density changes with eccentricity, ranging from 1,700 cells/mm2 centrally to 600 cells/mm2 in the periphery. Presumptive cholinergic cells were filled with the fluorescent dye Lucifer yellow. Both subpopulations have the same "starburstlike" morphology as described for rabbit cholinergic amacrine cells (Famiglietti, '83; Tauchi and Masland, '84; Masland et al., '84b). Their dendritic tree sizes change with eccentricity and range from 160 to 300 microns in diameter. Counterstaining of Lucifer yellow-filled cells by ChAT immunohistochemistry did not yield an unequivocal double staining. Nevertheless, indirect evidence of same soma size, same number and form of primary dendrites, same level of stratification, and the good fit into the cholinergic mosaic makes it very likely that the "starburstlike" amacrine cells in the rat use acetylcholine as their transmitter. A comparison with the rabbit cholinergic system strengthens this assumption and reveals a striking similarity between both species.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
