- W2087886009 abstract "It is well known that in the mammalian visual cortex the neurons, sharing similar response properties, are grouped together into functional units, known as cortical columns. The orientation and ocular dominance columnar organization is a fundamental element for both the anatomical and physiological features of the visual cortex. Nonetheless, little is known about the functional restoration of matured columnar columns following injury. In the present study, the visual cortex of adult cats was studied electrophysiologically, whereas the primary goal of the study was to reveal the functional stability of the columns, disconnected from the main visual input. Experiments were performed on the primary visual cortex (area 17) of 13 anaesthetized and paralyzed adult cats. The columnar distortion was produced by surgical incision perpendicular to the cortical columns. The single unit activity was recorded from 1186 visual cells (experimental groups) in areas proximal and distal to the lesion and, compared to data, received from intact visual cortex (control group). The results indicate that most of the visually responsive cells were found to be selective to specific orientation in all experimental groups (75–100%) similar to the normal control group (78%). Moreover, the distribution of orientation-specific cells was very similar in all experimental and control groups (p > 0.05), as well as in both recording areas (p > 0.05). The percentage of binocular cells was significantly lower in all experimental groups (23–49%) in comparison to the control (80%). However, the distribution of the binocular cells revealed the significant similarity between the experimental and control groups (p > 0.05). An additional finding of the study is that the visual responsiveness of cells was significantly reduced in all experimental groups: only 28–49% of cells were found to be responsive following injury, as compared to 86% in normal control group (p < 0.001). The distribution of cells has also been analysed in accordance with their directional specificity and it has been found that the majority of cells in the experimental groups were found to be bias and non-specific to light stimuli (52–84%) as compared normal controls (21%) (p < 0.001). It has been concluded that, despite the fact that no improvement in visual function was found, the inherent structure of the disrupted cortical columns in the visual cortex was generally preserved. Therefore, the disruption of the columnar connection does not lead to remarkable distortion of the connectivity pattern on the whole, though it does reduce the responsiveness level there. It was concluded that the columnar structure for both orientation and ocular dominance is characterized by high stability, which enables visual processing with minimal brain connections." @default.
