Conserved circuits for direction selectivity in the primate retina

Sara S. Patterson et al.

Summary: This study reveals that the primate retina has the ability to compute motion direction, which is earlier in the visual system than previously thought, through a connectomic reconstruction of the primate ON-starburst amacrine cell (SAC) circuit.

Distinct inhibitory pathways control velocity and directional tuning in the mouse retina

Mathew T. Summers et al.

Summary: This study investigates two circuits in the retina responsible for encoding different aspects of image motion. The research shows that distinct inhibitory pathways independently control tuning for motion velocity and motion direction in these two cell types.

A biophysical account of multiplication by a single neuron

Lukas N. Groschner et al.

Summary: Nonlinear, multiplication-like operations carried out by individual nerve cells greatly enhance the computational power of a neural system. This study focuses on the Drosophila melanogaster ON motion vision circuit, where the researchers investigate the biophysical implementation of these operations. The findings reveal a passive supralinear interaction between two distinct types of synapse on T4 dendrites, which results in a multiplication-like nonlinearity.

Origins of direction selectivity in the primate retina

Yeon Jin Kim et al.

Summary: The neural coding of motion direction has been extensively studied in the visual cortex of non-human primates. In this study, the authors identified various direction-selective cell types in the retina of macaque monkeys, providing insights into the precortical circuitry responsible for computing motion direction in the primate visual system.

Parallel processing in active dendrites during periods of intense spiking activity

Benjamin L. Murphy-Baum et al.

Summary: The ability of neurons to perform parallel computations in their dendritic arbor improves their computational capacity. Direction-selective ganglion cells in the mouse retina are able to compute the direction of moving objects multiple times as they traverse their receptive fields, allowing them to rapidly detect changes in motion direction. The parallel processing capacity of neurons can be maintained even during intense synaptic activity.

Gain control by sparse ultra-slow glycinergic synapses

Varsha Jain et al.

Summary: Glycinergic inhibition plays a crucial role in shaping the response properties of SACs in the retina, and is predominantly derived from specific amacrine cells in both the ON and OFF retinal pathways. Glycinergic inputs effectively control the output gain of SACs by summing and expanding their range of direction computation.

Classical center-surround receptive fields facilitate novel object detection in retinal bipolar cells

John A. Gaynes et al.

Summary: Antagonistic interactions between center and surround receptive field components are crucial in visual computations. We found that bipolar cells enhance responses to objects in their receptive field and show altered dynamics during continuous motion.

Center-surround interactions underlie bipolar cell motion sensitivity in the mouse retina

Sarah Strauss et al.

Summary: Motion sensing is a crucial aspect of vision. Research on mouse retinal bipolar cells has revealed the presence of radial direction selectivity, with some cells preferring the origin of small object motion trajectories. This selectivity relies on the properties of the center-surround receptive field. By studying these cells and using connectomics, biophysical models were developed to understand how their selectivity contributes to downstream cells. It was found that bipolar cells pass radial direction selective excitation to starburst amacrine cells, contributing to their directional tuning and potentially impacting motion processing throughout the visual system.

Realistic retinal modeling unravels the differential role of excitation and inhibition to starburst amacrine cells in direction selectivity

Elishai Ezra-Tsur et al.

Summary: Retinal direction selectivity, mediated by starburst amacrine cells (SACs), originates from their centrifugal preference in response to stimuli. Utilizing the Retinal Stimulation Modeling Environment (RSME), detailed simulations revealed that precise organization of input kinetics along SAC processes and reciprocal inhibition between SACs contribute to this centrifugal preference. Additionally, the contribution of SAC-SAC inhibitory connections and SAC centrifugal preference to direction selectivity in direction selective ganglion cells (DSGCs) was explored, enhancing our understanding of SACs' role in visual processing.

Properties of multivesicular release from mouse rod photoreceptors support transmission of single-photon responses

Cassandra L. Hays et al.

Summary: Rods achieve the transmission of single-photon responses by enhancing release regularity and sensitivity to small voltage changes. The regularly timed, multivesicular release promotes efficient transmission to post-synaptic rod-bipolar cells, requiring lower overall release rates than uniquantal release governed by Poisson statistics.

Direction selectivity in retinal bipolar cell axon terminals

Akihiro Matsumoto et al.

Summary: Through two-photon glutamate imaging, it was discovered that direction selectivity arises early at bipolar cell outputs, with individual bipolar cells containing distinct populations of axon terminal boutons with different preferred directions. Tuning at these boutons relies on cholinergic excitation and GABAergic inhibition, contributing to the incremental refinement of directional tuning in the excitatory visual pathway.
