| Abstract: | After intravitreal injection, 3H]glycine accumulates in 3 distinct subpopulations of amacrine cells in the cat retina whereas 3H]GABA accumulates in 4 different subpopulations. Each labeled cell type can be distinguished on the basis of size and cytologic features. The density of label associated with each subpopulation serves as an additional distinguishing characteristic. 3H]Glycine is concentrated within the outer two-thirds of the inner plexiform layer (IPL). 3H]GABA is localized in two narrow bands in the outer half of the IPL and in a wider band adjacent to the ganglion cell layer. |
