Relative contribution of feed-forward excitatory connections to expression of ocular dominance plasticity in layer 4 of visual cortex

Brief monocular deprivation (MD) shifts ocular dominance (OD) in primary visual cortex by causing depression of responses to the deprived eye. Here we address the extent to which the shift is expressed by a modification of excitatory synaptic transmission. An OD shift was first induced with 3 days o...
