What do amacrine cells do?
The AII amacrine cells are the major carriers of rod signals to the ganglion cells in the retina. As such, they play a role in speeding up the slow potential rod messages for presentation to ganglion cells (18, 31). Their distribution in the retina suggests that they tile the complete retina (32).
What are amacrine cells and horizontal cells?
Amacrine cells and horizontal cells are two types of interneurons in the retina that are primarily responsible for lateral interactions within the retina. Amacrine cells receive inputs from bipolar cells while horizontal cells receive inputs from photoreceptors.
