A retinal circuit that vetoes optokinetic responses to fast visual motion

Adam Mani, Xinzhu Yang, Tiffany Zhao, Megan L. Leyrer, Daniel Schreck, David M. Berson

The paper identifies VGluT3 amacrine cells as a source of inhibition that limits the range of retinal slip speeds driving optokinetic responses in mice.

Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells evade temporal filtering to encode environmental light intensity

Shai Sabbah, Carin M. Papendorp, Inbar Behrendt, Hala Rasras, Jesse Cann, Megan L. Leyrer, Elizabeth Koplas, Marjo Beltoja, Cameron Etebari, Ali Noel Gunesch, Luis Carrete, Min Tae Kim, Gabrielle Manoff, Ananya Bhatia-Lin, Tiffany Zhao, , David M. Berson

The paper investigates how intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) encode environmental light intensity by showing their unique synaptic drive and resistance to postsynaptic filtering.

Synaptic circuits for irradiance coding by intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells

Shai Sabbah, Carin M. Papendorp, Elizabeth Koplas, Marjo Beltoja, Cameron Etebari, Ali Noel Gunesch, Luis Carrete, Min Tae Kim, Gabrielle Manoff, Ananya Bhatia-Lin, Tiffany Zhao, Daniel Schreck, Henry Dowling, Kevin L. Briggman, David M. Berson

The paper investigates the synaptic circuits in intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) that encode light intensity, showing that Type 6 ON cone bipolar cells provide the strongest luminance signal.
