Barrels are discrete cytoarchitectonic neurons cluster located in the layer IV of the somatosensory¦cortex in mice brain. Each barrel is related to a specific whisker located on the mouse snout. The¦whisker-to-barrel pathway is a part of the somatosensory system that i...
Here authors show cortical layer 5 provides translaminar inputs to layer 2/3 during development, strengthening layer 4-layer 2/3 connections and supporting the formation of the canonical cortical organization in mouse barrel cortex. John Vargas-Ortiz Lin Lin Alicia Che ResearchOpen Access03 Feb ...
To test whether AIS plasticity occurs in a behaviorally relevant context, we utilized the mouse whisker-to-barrel system33. This pathway conveys tactile information from vibrissae on the rodent whisker pad to the barrel field in primary somatosensory cortex (S1BF) in a strictly organized hierarchy ...

Previous work has identified a number of cellular, synaptic and circuit changes in Fmr1-KO mouse barrel cortex9,24,40. However, these experiments were conducted 5 days after the end of the delayed critical period for long-term potentiation (LTP) in Fmr1-KO mice. Therefore, it is unclear whe...
Cortical maps, consisting of orderly arrangements of functional columns, are a hallmark of the organization of the cerebral cortex. However, the microorganization of cortical maps at the level of single neurons is not known, mainly because of the limitat
The mouse head was shaved and the skull surface was exposed with a midline scalp incision. The region (0.2 mm in diameter) to be imaged was identi?ed over the barrel cortex based on stereotaxic coordinates (1.1 mm posterior to the bregma and 3.4 mm lateral from the midline). After ...
Increasing evidence suggests that synaptic zinc, found within the axon terminals of a subset of glutamatergic neurons in the cerebral cortex, is intricately involved in cortical plasticity. Using the vibrissae/barrel cortex model of cortical plasticity, we have previously shown manipulations of sensory ...
