Connexin36 Expression in the Mammalian Retina: A Multiple-Species Comparison

Connexin36 Expression in the Mammalian Retina: A Multiple-Species Comparison

Much knowledge about interconnection of human retinal neurons is inferred from results on animal models. Likewise, there is a lack of information on human retinal electrical synapses/gap junctions (GJ). Connexin36 (Cx36) forms GJs in both the inner and outer plexiform layers (IPL and OPL) in most sp...
