ON and OFF Signaling Pathways in the Retina and the Visual System

open access: yesFrontiers in Ophthalmology, 2022
Visual processing starts at the retina of the eye, and signals are then transferred primarily to the visual cortex and the tectum. In the retina, multiple neural networks encode different aspects of visual input, such as color and motion.

Visual pathways involvement in multiple sclerosis from pathological process to neuro-ophthalmologic assessment [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Neurology, 2014
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disease associated with a myriad of visual pathways pathology. These pathologies need to be assessed, even when asymptomatic, because they may represent an important index of disease course, severity and ...

The functional specialization of visual cortex emerges from training parallel pathways with self-supervised predictive learning

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2021
The visual system of mammals is comprised of parallel, hierarchical specialized pathways. Different pathways are specialized in so far as they use representations that are more suitable for supporting specific downstream behaviours.

Distribution of AMPA-type glutamate receptor subunits in the chick visual system

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1997
Several glutamate receptor (GluR) subunits have been characterized during the past few years. In the present study, subunit-specific antisera were used to determine the distribution of the AMPA-type glutamate receptor subunits GluR1-4 in retinorecipient ...

The Effects of the Müller-Lyer Goalkeepers’ Illusion on Perceptions and Location of Throws of Penalty Takers [PDF]

open access: yesرشد و یادگیری حرکتی ورزشی, 2019
The main aim of the present study was to investigate whether the goalkeepers’ postures that mimic the Müller–Lyer illusion can influence penalty-takers’ perceptions and the location of throws.

Visual and motor signatures of locomotion dynamically shape a population code for feature detection in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Natural vision is dynamic: as an animal moves, its visual input changes dramatically. How can the visual system reliably extract local features from an input dominated by self-generated signals?

Visual pathways of the secondary eyes in the brain of a jumping spider

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
Some animals have evolved task differentiation of individual structures within the same sensory modality (e.g. olfaction or vision). A particular example is spiders, where most species have eight eyes, of which two (the principle eyes) are used for ...

Spatio-temporal Contrast Sensitivity in the Cardinal Directions of the Colour Space. A Review

open access: yesJournal of Optometry, 2010
We review the psychophysics of the spatio-temporal contrast sensitivity in the cardinal directions of the colour space and their correlation with those neural characteristics of the visual system that limit the ability to perform contrast detection or ...

Compromised Integrity of Central Visual Pathways in Patients With Macular Degeneration.

open access: yesInvestigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2017
Purpose Macular degeneration (MD) affects the central retina and leads to gradual loss of foveal vision. Although, photoreceptors are primarily affected in MD, the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and central visual pathways may also be altered ...

Morphometric analyses of the visual pathways in macular degeneration. [PDF]

open access: yesCortex; a journal devoted to the study of the nervous system and behavior, 2014
INTRODUCTION Macular degeneration (MD) causes central visual field loss. When field defects occur in both eyes and overlap, parts of the visual pathways are no longer stimulated.
