1990年10月15日 · Monoclonal antibody Cat-301 recognizes a neuronal surface-associated proteoglycan in many areas of the mammalian central nervous system. In the cat LGN Cat-301 immunoreactivity is restricted to a subset of neurons.

2017年2月22日 · We performed targeted single-cell-initiated transsynaptic tracing to label the retinal ganglion cells that provide input to individual principal cells in the mouse lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN). We identified three modes of sensory integration by single LGN cells.

normal and lid-sutured animals suggest that the cat LGN offers a unique model system in which the cytoskeleton of one class of cells can be manipulated by altering neuronal activity. Key words: SMI-32; electron microscopy; monocular depri-vation; immunocytochemistry; thalamus; cytoskeleton The SMI-32 antibody stains the nonphosphorylated form ...

We investigated the time domain transformation that thalamocortical relay cells of the cat lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) perform on their retinal input, and used computational modeling to explore the biophysical properties that determine the dynamics of the LGN relay cells in vivo.

We examined the effects of early visual deprivation on Cat-304 immunoreactivity in the LGN and visual cortex of cats. In LGN from normal cats, Cat-304 labels neurons in layers A, A1, and C, in interlaminar zones, and in the medial interlaminar nucleus.

2001年5月1日 · In cats, monocular deprivation produces a selective loss of Y cells and a reduction in spatial resolution among X cells in LGN laminae driven by the deprived eye (Lehmkuhle et al. 1980; Sherman and Spear 1982; Sherman et al. 1972). Studying the monocularly deprived monkey LGN might similarly indicate whether a …

2018年5月1日 · As to the relay cells in cats’ lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), they also have weak but significant orientation bias (OB). It is thus of interest to investigate the fine spatiotemporal receptive field (STRF) properties in LGN, compare them with the dynamics of orientation tuning, and examine the dynamic relationship between STRF and ...

2013年9月3日 · Orientation sensitivity was tested, using moving bars as stimuli, in 136 LGN cells in normal cats and 82 LGN cells in cats with areas 17 and 18 lesioned. The responses of most neurones showed some dependence on the orientation of the line stimulus. The orientation bias was more pronounced for long, narrow bars moving at rather slow velocities.

We recorded simultaneously from 141 pairs of layer IV simple cells and layer II and III complex cells in vertical alignment within cat visual cortex (misalignment, < 200 μm). This precise...
