A Dendrite-Autonomous Mechanism for Direction Selectivity in Retinal Starburst Amacrine Cells

Detection of image motion direction begins in the retina, with starburst amacrine cells (SACs) playing a major role. SACs generate larger dendritic Ca(2+) signals when motion is from their somata towards their dendritic tips than for motion in the opposite direction. To study the mechanisms underlyi...
