retinal ganglion cell Class I | Dreher (Dreher) | HRP-labelled Class I cells, like Type I cells identified by Perry [1979] in Golgi-stained wholemounts of rat retina...have 3-7 fairly large-gauge primary dendrites, each of which bifurcates at least once, with the initial branches being about half the width of the parent dendrite. Their dendritic trees, irrespective of the location of the cell body, tend to be large (up to 470 micrometers in diameter). Class I cells are labelled after HRP injections restricted to the contralateral DLG or SC. | is included | Neurons originally known as Type 1 RGCs, subsequently called Class I and then ‘‘alpha cells’’ (Perry, 1979; Dreher et al., 1985; Reese and Cowey, 1986; Schall et al., 1987; Peichl, 1989; Tauchi et al., 1992), whose dendrites monostratify in the inner or the outer parts of the IPL, were grouped as inner and outer RGA2 cells. | Huxlin K.R & Goodchild A.K. | Mihail Bota |

retinal ganglion cell type I | Perry (Perry) | Type I cells have the largest cell bodies of all the classes (see table 1). The primary dendrites are generally smooth in appearance but sometimes have dendritic spines, and roughly halve their diameter at the first bifurcation (see plates 1, figures 1 and 2). The cells have 3 to 6 primary dendrites which enter the inner plexiform layer diagonally and appear to terminate in the outer part of inner plexiform layer. On many of these cells an axon could be identified and the axons were in general the thickest observed. | is included | Neurons originally known as Type 1 RGCs, subsequently called Class I and then ‘‘alpha cells’’ (Perry, 1979; Dreher et al., 1985; Reese and Cowey, 1986; Schall et al., 1987; Peichl, 1989; Tauchi et al., 1992), whose dendrites monostratify in the inner or the outer parts of the IPL, were grouped as inner and outer RGA2 cells. | Huxlin K.R & Goodchild A.K. | Mihail Bota |

inner alpha retinal ganglion cell | Peichl (Peichl) | Rat alpha cell dendritic trees. like those of all mammalian alpha cells, are monostratified in the IPL in either an inner sublamina (inner alpha cell) or an outer sublamina (outer alpha cell). Dendrites of inner alpha cells branch most frequently in the distal dendritic field; near the soma there are dendrite-free zone. | synonym | Alpha ganglion cells, which were identified by Peichl (1989), were identified and are termed RGA2 in the present study (see Table 1). | Huxlin K.R & Goodchild A.K. | Mihail Bota |
