Refractive error is the most common eye disorder worldwide and is a prominent cause of
blindness. Myopia affects over 30% of Western populations and up to 80% of Asians. The …

Purpose It is unknown which retinal cells are involved in the retina-to-sclera signaling
cascade causing myopia. As inherited retinal dystrophies (IRD) are characterized by …

Different types of retinal ganglion cells represent distinct spatiotemporal filters that respond
selectively to specific features in the visual input. Much about the circuitry and synaptic …

Voltage-gated sodium (Na v) channels are known to augment cone bipolar cell light
responses, increasing the electroretinogram (ERG) b-wave in response to stimulus strengths …

Abstract dl‐2‐Amino‐4‐phosphonobutyric acid (APB) is often used as a tool to block On
pathways in studies of interactions between On and Off pathways in retinas. APB is an …

Introduction Light responses of rod photoreceptor cells traverse the retina through three
pathways. The primary pathway involves synapses from rods to ON-type rod bipolar cells …

Glutamate release at bipolar to ganglion cell synapses activates NMDA and AMPA/kainic
acid (KA) ionotropic glutamate receptors. Their relative strength determines the output …

Background So far, only indirect evidence exists for the pharmacoresistant R-type voltage-
gated Ca 2+ channel (VGCC) to be involved in transretinal signaling by triggering GABA …

Die vorliegende Arbeit zeigt den Einfluss der Photorezeptordegeneration auf die
Signalweiterleitung in der degenerierten Retina. Die folgenden Ergebnisse stellen sowohl …

Objectives. The objective of this paper is to determine if hyaluronan affects bupivacaine's
anesthetic function. Methods. Whole cell patch clamp recordings were performed on bovine …
