type 4 glycinergic retinal amacrine cellMenger (Menger)

The level of stratification of the branches within the IPL was taken as the defining criterion of the classification scheme. On this basis, eight different types could be distinguished. Unfortunately, the frequency of injection varied among the cell types and AII amacrines were encountered most often. Only one type 1 cell was encountered, but the quality of LY filling of this cell and its position within the slice rule out the possibility that it might be another type that was damaged by the slicing procedure. A schematic diagram of the eight different glycinergic amacrine cells is shown in Figure 10A, B. The cells were sampled from the central retina, and their dendritic tree diameters did not exceed 100 µm; most were approximately 40 µm in diameter.
