Synaptic connection patterns between frog retinal ganglion cells and tectal neurons revealed by whole-cell recordings in vivo.

Abstract:

:The synaptic connections between frog retinal ganglion cells and tectal neurons were examined by whole-cell recordings in vivo combined with nystatin perforated patch-clamp technique and pulse-triggered averaging analysis. In five tectal neurons, monosynaptic EPSPs from seven R3 retinal ganglion cells were observed. One tectal neuron was found to receive EPSPs from both R1/2 and R3 retinal ganglion cell simultaneously. Thus we could provide the first evidence for convergence of multiple types of retinal axons upon a single tectal neuron.
