Suppression without Inhibition in Visual Cortex
Neurons in primary visual cortex (V1) are thought to receive inhibition from other V1 neurons selective for a variety of orientations. Evidence for this inhibition is commonly found in cross-orientation suppression: responses of a V1 neuron to optimally oriented bars are suppressed by superimposed mask bars of different orientation. We show, however, that suppression is unlikely to result from ...
متن کاملVisual Cortex: Suppression by Depression?
The response of a neuron in the visual cortex to an oriented light bar is strongly reduced by concurrent presentation of a stimulus with a different orientation. New data suggest this 'cross-orientation suppression' is caused, not by intracortical inhibition, but by rapid depression of thalamocortical synapses.
متن کاملCross-orientation suppression in human visual cortex.
Cross-orientation suppression was measured in human primary visual cortex (V1) to test the normalization model. Subjects viewed vertical target gratings (of varying contrasts) with or without a superimposed horizontal mask grating (fixed contrast). We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to measure the activity in each of several hypothetical channels (corresponding to subpopulatio...
متن کاملVisual Cortex: Suppression by Depression? Dispatch
The images of the world are decomposed by our retinae and transmitted to the brain as neuronal spike trains. At each successive stage in the visual pathway, neurons display progressively more complex response properties and interactions, ultimately leading to the reconstruction of elaborate visual features in higher areas of the visual cortex. One such response property, which already emerges i...
متن کاملPrimed-burst potentiation in adult rat visual cortex in vitro
The effectiveness of θ pattern primed-bursts (PBs) on development of primed-burst (PB) potentiation was investigated in layer II/III of the adult rat visual cortex in vitro. Experiments were carried out in the visual cortical slices. Population excitatory post-synaptic potentials (pEPSPs) were evoked in layer II/III by stimulation of either white mater or layer IV. To induce long-term potenti...
