The Augmentation of Retinogeniculate Communication during Thalamic Burst Mode

Retinal signals are transmitted to cortex via neurons in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), where they are processed in burst or tonic response mode. Burst mode occurs when LGN neurons are sufficiently hyperpolarized for T-type Ca channels to deinactivate, allowing them to open in response to dep...
