giant ganglion cell | Bunt (Bunt) | Several examples have been found of giant cells similar to those described by Polyak in the primate retina as having large somata (20 micrometers or greater) and relatively thick dendritic branches which were smooth and spine-free, radiating outward from
the soma to extend throughout the inner plexiform layer. The diameter of the dendritic spread reached 260 micrometers. | synonym | Subgroup RGA1 cells (Figs. 2A, 3–5, Table 1) have a morphology similar to that of the ‘‘giant’’ cells of Bunt (1976). | Huxlin K.R & Goodchild A.K. | Mihail Bota |
