Extracellular pH dynamics of retinal horizontal cells examined using electrochemical and fluorometric methods.

Extracellular H(+) has been hypothesized to mediate feedback inhibition from horizontal cells onto vertebrate photoreceptors. According to this hypothesis, depolarization of horizontal cells should induce extracellular acidification adjacent to the cell membrane. Experiments testing this hypothesis have produced conflicting results. Studies examining carp and goldfish horizontal cells loaded wi...

an extracellular alkalization induced by 1 glutamatergic activation of isolated retinal horizontal cells

35 36 37 Extracellular acidification induced by retinal horizontal cells has been 38 hypothesized to underlie lateral feedback inhibition onto vertebrate 39 photoreceptors. To test this hypothesis, the H-sensitive fluorophore HAF (540 hexadecanoylaminofluorescein) was used to measure changes in H from 41 horizontal cells isolated from the retina of the catfish. HAF staining conditions 42 were m...

Fluorescent imaging reports an extracellular alkalinization induced by glutamatergic activation of isolated retinal horizontal cells.

Extracellular acidification induced by retinal horizontal cells has been hypothesized to underlie lateral feedback inhibition onto vertebrate photoreceptors. To test this hypothesis, the H(+)-sensitive fluorophore 5-hexadecanoylaminofluorescein (HAF) was used to measure changes in H(+) from horizontal cells isolated from the retina of the catfish. HAF staining conditions were modified to minimi...

Effects of pH buffering on horizontal and ganglion cell light responses in primate retina: evidence for the proton hypothesis of surround formation.

Negative feedback from horizontal cells to cone photoreceptors is regarded as the critical pathway for the formation of the antagonistic surround of retinal neurons, yet the mechanism by which horizontal cells accomplish negative feedback has been difficult to determine. Recent evidence suggests that feedback uses a novel, non-GABAergic pathway that directly modulates the calcium current in con...

The mechanisms of Zn2+ effects on Ca2+-permeable AMPA receptors on carp retinal horizontal cells.

It was demonstrated in our recent study that Zn(2+) had dual effects on Ca(2+)-permeable AMPA receptors on carp retinal horizontal cells. However, the possible mechanism(s) underlying the Zn(2+) effects is still unclear. In the present study, we examined the Zn(2+) effects in the presence of cyclothiazide (CTZ), an allosteric potentiator of AMPA receptors, which could attenuate the receptor des...
