Cx36 immunoreactivity on injected and isolated AII amacrine cells. A, AII amacrine of the mouse retina filled with Neurobiotin and visualized with streptavidin–FITC. The picture represents a superimposed stack of 40 confocal images of 200 nm each. The stratification levels S1–S5 of the IPL are indicated ashorizontal lines to the left. The bistratified morphology of this cell type with lobular appendages in S1 (arrows) and a narrow-field dendritic tree in S3–S5 (arrowheads) is apparent. B, Pattern of Cx36 immunoreactivity superimposed on the cell shown inA. C, Single 200 nm confocal section of the same cell, superimposed on Cx36 staining pattern in the IPL. The cell body and most of the dendritic arborization are out of focus.D, E, Isolated AII amacrine cells from the rat retina double-labeled with antibodies against parvalbumin (red) and Cx36 (green). The cells display Cx36 immunoreactivity on their distal dendrites. Scale bars:A–E, 10 μm.
