Tetrodotoxin-resistant sodium channels contribute to directional responses in starburst amacrine cells.
The biophysical mechanisms that give rise to direction selectivity in the retina remain uncertain. Current evidence suggests that the directional signal first arises within the dendrites of starburst amacrine cells (SBACs). Two models have been proposed to explain this phenomenon, one based on mutua...
