Off-center Pathway

The OFF-Center Pathway is a retinal neural circuit that belongs to the class of visual signal processing pathways and is distinguished by its selective response to decreases in light intensity in the center of the receptive field, mediated by OFF-bipolar cells that depolarize in response to light offset, thereby transmitting signals through OFF-ganglion cells to the visual cortex.
