Figure 9

DB1 bipolar cells express glycine receptors at points of contact with putative AII amacrine cells. A,D: Confocal projections of vertical sections from peripheral retina (7 ×0.44 μm) stained for SCGN, the glycine receptor GlyRα1, and the AII amacrine cell marker, calretinin. Note the diffuse morphology of the DB1 axon terminals. B,C: Single confocal image planes from the cell shown in A. E,F: Single confocal image planes from the cell shown in D. Arrowheads indicate regions where GlyRα1 puncta are positioned at points of cofasciculation between DB1 axon terminals and putative AII amacrine cell lobular appendages. Scale bars 10 = μm (large panels); 2 μm (subpanels). [Color figure can be viewed in the online issue, which is available at wileyonlinelibrary.com.]
