Message definition (The Eye and Retina )
Bipolar cells connect photoreceptors and ganglion cells. Their function is to transmit signals from photoreceptors to ganglion cells, either directly or indirectly. Bipolar cells get their name from their shape — they have a central cell body from which two different sets of neurites ([[Axon | axons]] or [[Dendrite | dendrites]]) extend. They can make connections with either rods or cones (but not both simultaneously), and they also form connections with horizontal cells. Unlike most neurons, which communicate with one another using [[Axon#Action_Potential|action potentials]], bipolar cells “talk” with other cells using graded potentials.
