What is Central Projections of Cat Retinal Ganglion Cells about?

## Abstract The central projections of different groups of cat retinal ganglion cells were studied following small iontophoretic injections of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) into physiologically characterized sites. Analysis was restricted to labeled cells in the upper periphery of the nasal retina, contralateral to the injection site. Injections were made to the A lamina and C lamina of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (LGNd‐A,C), the geniculate wing (LGNd‐W), the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus (LGNv), the pretectum (PT), and the superior colliculus (SC). The dendritic fields of alpha, beta, and epsilon cells were well labeled by the procedures we employed. A group, termed “g~1~,” had somal sizes within the range of the smaller beta and epsilon cells, but dendritic morphologies distinct from either class. The g~1~ group may consist of a number of types, but our material provided no basis for further distinguishing them. Many cells were observed that had smaller somas; all had thin axons, and few had dendritic fields that labeled to any significant extent. We were not able to further distinguish these cells, and refer to this group, which may include a number of types, as “g
