glutamate/PACAP expressing retinal ganglion cellHannibal et al. (Hannibal)

In the retina PACAP immunoreactivity was located to a homogeneous population of retinal ganglion cells with two to four thin, sparsely branching processes (Fig. 2A). Most processes seemed to radiatel horizontally in the ganglion cell layer towards the optic disc via the optic nerve. Other processes projected through the inner plexiform layer towards the inner nuclear layer in which they seemed to may synaptic contact (Fig. 3A).includes
The PACAP immunoreactive ganglion cells seemed to constitute a subpopulation of glutamate immunoreactive ganglion cells (Fig. 3A, B), since the number of glutamate-containing ganglion cells clearly outnumbered that of PACAP immunoreactive ganglion cells (Fig. 3A, B).Hannibal J., Moller M., Ottersen O.P. & Fahrenkug J.Mihail Bota
