Labeling in the nNOS-CreER driver line. A, nNOS-1 wide-field amacrine cell. A single nNOS-1 wide-field amacrine cell was labeled in a whole-mount retina. Scale bar, 1 mm. B, Neurolucida tracing of A, with the dendrites and soma drawn in green, the axon-like processes drawn in red, and the outline of the retina marked in white. Scale bar, 1 mm. C, Enlarged view of the boxed region in A, with the soma and ON arbors labeled in green and the OFF arbors labeled in red. Scale bar, 50 μm. D, Side view with ChAT (blue) of the boxed region in C, including the soma, dendrites, and axon-like processes. E, Side view of a segment of axon-like process near the soma (yellow arrow in C). F, Side view of a distal segment of axon-like process (yellow arrow in A). Scale bars: D–F, 10 μm. G, The nNOS-1 amacrine cell is GABAergic. Scale bar, 10 μm. H, I, Both nNOS-1 and CRH-2 amacrine cells are positive for nNOS. Scale bars, 10 μm. J, Three nNOS-2 wide-field amacrine cells reconstructed from a projected image. Scale bar, 500 μm. K–M, Morphologies of nNOS-2 amacrine cells. Each cell was pseudocolored corresponding to J. Top, Enlarged view of a center region including the soma and nearby arbors. Scale bar, 20 μm. Side view with ChAT (blue) of the boxed region is shown in the middle. Scale bar, 10 μm. Bottom, Side view of the distal arbors (arrows in J). Scale bar, 10 μm. N, The nNOS-2 amacrine cell is GABAergic. Scale bar, 10 μm.
