Abstract
Using antisera against tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and purified β 2-adrenergic receptors ( β 2-AdR), we found that TH- and AdR-like immunoreactivities coexisted in large amacrine cells. These findings indicated an association between dopamine-containing amacrine cells and adrenergic amacrine cells. The present study also showed that amacrine cells with TH-like immunoreactivity have vitamin-D-dependent calcium-binding protein (calbindin, 27 000 kDa)-like immunoreactivity as well, suggesting that calbindin plays an important postsynaptic role in dopaminergic amacrine cells.
