Viral vector-mediated selective and reversible blockade of the pathway for visual orienting in mice

Viral vector-mediated selective and reversible blockade of the pathway for visual orienting in mice

Recently, by using a combination of two viral vectors, we developed a technique for pathway-selective and reversible synaptic transmission blockade, and successfully induced a behavioral deficit of dexterous hand movements in macaque monkeys by affecting a population of spinal interneurons. To explo...
