Cells accumulating 3h-glycine in the goldfish retina

Albrecht Von Graefes Arch Klin Exp Ophthalmol. 1981;217(1):1-7. doi: 10.1007/BF00410875.

Abstract

Glycine accumulating neurons occur among amacrine cells of the goldfish retina with processes distributed in the inner plexiform layer. Similar cells also occur, although much more rarely, among the horizontal cells and in the outer plexiform layer. The latter cells are readily observable only after heavy labelling. They may emit processes ending close to the photoreceptor terminals.
