In mammals, gap junctions between retinal bipolar cells are generally small and tracer coupling has not been previously demonstrated. In this study, Neurobiotin was injected into the Ba3-type cone bipolar cell, a medium-field cone bipolar cell that ramifies in sublamina a of the rabbit retina. Tracer spread to many other Ba3 bipolar cells, presumably through gap junctions. It also spread to a smaller field bipolar cell called the Ba1 that ramifies at the same depth of the inner plexiform layer. Injection of Neurobiotin into Ba1 bipolar cells did not produce staining beyond the injected cell. Tracer coupling from the Ba3 was therefore both heterologous, in that different cell types were stained, and asymmetric. The unusual properties of this bipolar cell suggest that its function may differ from that of most cone bipolar cells, which are narrow-field, do not overlap, and are poorly coupled to one another.
