- W2131170352 abstract "The role of action potentials in the development of proper synaptic connections in the mammalian CNS was studied in the kitten retinogeniculate pathway. Our basic finding is that there is improper segregation of retinal inputs onto LGN cells after prolonged retinal action-potential blockade. Retinal ganglion cell firing was silenced from birth by repeated monocular injections of TTX. The resulting ganglion cell connections in the LGN were studied electrophysiologically after the action-potential blockade was ended. Most cells in the deprived LGN layers received excitatory input from both ON-center and OFF-center type ganglion cells, whereas LGN cells normally receive inputs only from ON-center or OFF-center ganglion cells, but not from both types. Improper segregation of ON and OFF inputs has never been reported after other types of visual deprivation that do not block ganglion cell activity. Control experiments showed that receptive fields in the nondeprived LGN layers were normal, that ganglion cell responses remained normal, and that there was no obvious ganglion cell loss. We also showed that individual LGN cells with ON and OFF excitatory inputs were not present in normal neonatal kittens. Two other types of improper input segregation in response to action-potential blockade were also found in the deprived LGN layers. (1) A greater than normal number of LGN cells received both X- and Y-type ganglion cell input. (2) Almost half of the cells at LGN layer borders were excited binocularly. Recovery of LGN normality was rapid and complete after blockade that lasted for only 3 weeks from birth, but little recovery was seen after about 11 weeks of blockade. The susceptibility to action-potential blockade decreased during the first 3 postnatal weeks. These findings may result from axon-terminal sprouting or from the failure of axon terminals to retract. The results are consistent with the idea that normally synchronous activity of neighboring ganglion cells of like center-type may be used in the refinement of retinogeniculate synaptic connections." @default.
