Inactivation of horizontal cells in turtle retina by glutamate and aspartate

Inactivation of horizontal cells in turtle retina by glutamate and aspartate

L Cervetto et al. Science. .

Abstract

Glutamate and aspartate completely suppress the activity of horizontal cells but only partially affect the response of receptor cells to light. The changes observed in the receptor responses are consistent with the interruption of a synaptically mediated process rather than with a direct action on the receptor membrane.
