Equalization and decorrelation in primary visual cortex.

abstract：:1. High-voltage-activated Ca2+ currents [ICa(HVA)] were studied in immunolabeled mouse retinal ganglion neurons (RGNs) to elucidate channel-specific components and their developmental changes in vitro. 2. Neurons were dissociated at postnatal day 5. RGNs were selected for electrophysiological measurements by vital lab...
