Cone contributions to cat retinal ganglion cell receptive fields
Extracellular microelectrode recordings were made from ganglion cells of the intact, in situ eyes of adult common domestic cats. Three different photopic systems, with peak spectral sensitivities at 450, 500, and 556 nm, were observed. All ganglion cells received input from a cone system with a peak spectral sensitivity of 556 nm. The blue-sensitive cone system was observed in about one-half of...
متن کاملSpecificity of M and L cone inputs to receptive fields in the parvocellular pathway: random wiring with functional bias.
Many of the parvocellular pathway (PC) cells in primates show red-green spectral selectivity (cone opponency), but PC ganglion cells in the retina show no anatomical signs of cone selectivity. Here we asked whether responses of PC cells are compatible with "random wiring" of cone inputs. We measured long-wavelength-sensitive (L) and medium-wavelength-sensitive (M) cone inputs to PC receptive fi...
متن کاملFunctional elimination of excitatory feedforward inputs underlies developmental refinement of visual receptive fields in zebrafish.
In many sensory systems, receptive fields (RFs) measured by spike responses undergo progressive refinement during development. It has been proposed that elimination of excitatory synaptic inputs underlies such functional refinement. However, despite many extracellular recording and anatomical studies, direct in vivo intracellular evidence has remained limited. In this study, by cell-attached re...
متن کاملActivity-Dependent Matching of Excitatory and Inhibitory Inputs during Refinement of Visual Receptive Fields
The receptive field (RF) of single visual neurons undergoes progressive refinement during development. It remains largely unknown how the excitatory and inhibitory inputs on single developing neurons are refined in a coordinated manner to allow the formation of functionally correct circuits. Using whole-cell voltage-clamp recording from Xenopus tectal neurons, we found that RFs determined by ex...
متن کاملCone inputs in macaque primary visual cortex.
To understand the role of primary visual cortex (V1) in color vision, we measured directly the input from the 3 cone types in macaque V1 neurons. Cells were classified as luminance-preferring, color-luminance, or color-preferring from the ratio of the peak amplitudes of spatial frequency responses to red/green equiluminant and to black/white (luminance) grating patterns, respectively. In this s...
