Cholinergic amacrine cells of the rabbit retina contain glutamate decarboxylase and gamma-aminobutyrate immunoreactivity
Open accessAbstract
The transmitters acetylcholine and gamma-aminobutyrate (GABA) play critical roles in the formation of receptive-field properties of retinal ganglion cells. In rabbit retina, cholinergic amacrine and displaced amacrine cells were identified by immunohistochemical staining for the enzyme choline acetyltransferase and by their avid accumulation of the fluorescent dye 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole. Several GABA-immunoreactive and glutamate decarboxylase-immunoreactive cell types, including a prominent population of small, round amacrine and displaced amacrine cells, were also identified. Double-label experiments demonstrated that all amacrine and displaced amacrine cells that prominently accumulate 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole contain GABA and glutamate decarboxylase immunoreactivity. However, not all GABA-immunoreactive cells accumulate this dye. Quantitative analysis of the ganglion cell layer of whole mount preparations of the retina showed that choline acetyltransferase-immunoreactive cells and the majority of GABA-immunoreactive cells have a small, round shape and similar cell density profiles that parallel that of displaced amacrine cells. These studies establish that cholinergic cells are a major subpopulation of GABA-immunoreactive amacrine and displaced amacrine cells. The role these cells have in the formation of ganglion cell receptive-field properties may be parsimoniously explained by an excitatory postsynaptic action mediated by acetylcholine and an inhibitory presynaptic action mediated by GABA.

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.
