H. Personal communication. April 6, 2012.</ref>  A particular class of amacrine cells—the [[Starburst Amacrine Cell|starburst amacrine cell]]—has been found to be both cholinergic ''and'' GABAergic.<ref name="Masland 1992">D. M. O'Malley, J. H. Sandell & R. H. Masland (1992) [http://www.jneurosci.org/content/12/4/1394.full.pdf Co-release of Acetylcholine and GABA by the Starburst Amacrine Cells] J. Neurosci. <strong>12</strong> (4): 1394–1408</ref> According to retinal neuron expert Richard Masland, it appears that every amacrine cell is GABA- or glycinergic, with those amacrine cells that secrete other neurotransmitters secreting them concurrently with GABA or glycine.<ref name="Masland 2012"></ref>
