Xenopus laevis Retinal Ganglion Cell Dendritic Arbors Develop Independently of Visual Stimulation
Newly formed neurons must locate their appropriate target cells and then form synaptic connections with these targets in order to establish a functional nervous system. In the vertebrate retina, retinal ganglion cell (RGC) dendrites extend from the cell body and form synapses with nearby amacrine an...
