    Retinal microvascular and neuronal pathologies probed in vivo by adaptive optical two-photon fluorescence microscopy

    Qinrong Zhang, Yuhan Yang ... Na Ji
    A properly designed two-photon fluorescence microscope allows high-resolution visualization of neurons and capillaries in healthy and diseased mouse retinas in vivo, while to visualize subcellular structures, adaptive optics is required to correct the eye-induced optical aberrations.

    A transcriptome atlas of the mouse iris at single-cell resolution defines cell types and the genomic response to pupil dilation

    Jie Wang, Amir Rattner, Jeremy Nathans
    Using single nucleus RNA sequencing, a complete catalogue of cell types was determined for the mouse iris, and this information was used as a starting point to define the effects of pupil dilation on gene expression and on nuclear morphology.

    Retinoic acid signaling mediates peripheral cone photoreceptor survival in a mouse model of retina degeneration

    Ryoji Amamoto, Grace K Wallick, Constance L Cepko
    Retinoic acid signaling from Muller glia is necessary for cone photoreceptor survival in the peripheral retina and is sufficient to promote cone survival in the central retina during retinal degeneration.

    Neuron-glia signaling in developing retina mediated by neurotransmitter spillover

    Juliana M Rosa, Rémi Bos ... Marla B Feller
    Retinal waves are correlated with calcium transients in Müller cells, demonstrating that spontaneous activity encompasses both neuronal and glial networks during a crucial period of retinal development.

    Selectivity to approaching motion in retinal inputs to the dorsal visual pathway

    Todd R Appleby, Michael B Manookin
    Cells in the primate retina show unexpected sensitivity to approaching motion and optical flow.

    Circuit mechanisms underlying embryonic retinal waves

    Christiane Voufo, Andy Quaen Chen ... Alexandre Tiriac
    Calcium imaging reveals spatiotemporal properties of correlated spontaneous activity in the embryonic retina and implicates a role for electrical and chemical synapses in generating the activity.

    Excitatory neurotransmission activates compartmentalized calcium transients in Müller glia without affecting lateral process motility

    Joshua M Tworig, Chandler J Coate, Marla B Feller
    During development, lateral processes of retinal Müller glia are highly motile, and this motility persists when retinal waves and calcium transients are blocked, suggesting that Müller glial morphology is established independent of neuronal activity.

    Retinal direction selectivity in the absence of asymmetric starburst amacrine cell responses

    Laura Hanson, Santhosh Sethuramanujam ... Gautam B Awatramani
    Experimental and computational models reveal how parallel 'core' mechanisms shape direction selectivity at the dendrites of starburst amacrine cells and ganglion cells in the mouse retina.

    An NMDA receptor-dependent mechanism for subcellular segregation of sensory inputs in the tadpole optic tectum

    Ali S Hamodi, Zhenyu Liu, Kara G Pratt
    An activity-dependent mechanism sculpts subcellular segregation of sensory inputs.

    Sensitivity to image recurrence across eye-movement-like image transitions through local serial inhibition in the retina

    Vidhyasankar Krishnamoorthy, Michael Weick, Tim Gollisch
    The encoding of visual images by certain retinal ganglion cells is fundamentally altered in the context of eye-movement-like image transitions; the transitions trigger inhibitory interactions, which make these cells particularly sensitive to recurring images.
