The collicular termination of J-RGCs (of which JAM-B cells are a majority) is intriguing in light of a study in which Drager and Hubel mapped the receptive fields of neurons in the superior colliculus of the mouse. Nearly all of the direction-selective neurons they studied (35 out of 38) preferred upward motion in the visual field. This preference corresponds to that of J-RGCs.[1] Kim et al. have proposed that the receptive fields of direction-selective collicular cells are built from J-RGCs. Research remains to be done on this topic.
