Immunocytochemistry and distribution of parabrachial terminals in the lateral geniculate nucleus of the cat: A comparison with corticogeniculate terminals
- A. Erisir, S. C. Van Horn, M. E. Bickford, S. Sherman
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of comparative neurology
- 27 January 1997
We used immunohistochemistry in cats to demonstrate the presence of brain nitric oxide synthase (BNOS) in cholinergic fibers within the A‐laminae of the lateral geniculate nucleus. We used a double… Expand
Neurofilament Proteins in Y-Cells of the Cat Lateral Geniculate Nucleus: Normal Expression and Alteration with Visual Deprivation
- M. E. Bickford, W. Guido, D. Godwin
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of Neuroscience
- 15 August 1998
We examined neurofilament staining in the normal and visually deprived lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), using the SMI-32 antibody. This antibody preferentially stains LGN cells that display the… Expand

Visually guided movement is possible in the absence of conscious visual perception, a phenomenon referred to as “blindsight.” Similarly, fearful images can elicit emotional responses in the absence… Expand
Synaptic development of the mouse dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus
- M. E. Bickford, A. Slusarczyk, Emily K. Dilger, T. Krahe, C. Kűcűk, W. Guido
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of comparative neurology
- 1 March 2010
The dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of the mouse has emerged as a model system in the study of thalamic circuit development. However, there is still a lack of information regarding how and… Expand
Two distinct types of corticothalamic EPSPs and their contribution to short-term synaptic plasticity.
- J. Li, W. Guido, M. E. Bickford
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of neurophysiology
- 30 July 2003
The lateral posterior nucleus (LPN) is innervated by two different morphological types of cortical terminals that originate from cortical layers V and VI. Here we describe two distinct types of… Expand
A GABAergic projection from the pretectum to the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus in the cat
- J. Cucchiaro, M. E. Bickford, S. Sherman
- Biology, Medicine
- Neuroscience
- 31 December 1991
To study the projection from the pretectum to the lateral geniculate nucleus, we placed wheat-germ agglutinin conjugated to horseradish peroxidase into the lateral geniculate nuclei of six cats,… Expand
Synaptic targets of thalamic reticular nucleus terminals in the visual thalamus of the cat
- S. Wang, M. E. Bickford, S. C. Van Horn, A. Erisir, D. Godwin, S. Sherman
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of comparative neurology
- 26 November 2001
A major inhibitory input to the dorsal thalamus arises from neurons in the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), which use gamma‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) as a neurotransmitter. We examined the synaptic… Expand
Retinal and Tectal “Driver-Like” Inputs Converge in the Shell of the Mouse Dorsal Lateral Geniculate Nucleus
- M. E. Bickford, Na Zhou, T. Krahe, G. Govindaiah, W. Guido
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of Neuroscience
- 22 July 2015
The dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) is a model system for understanding thalamic organization and the classification of inputs as “drivers” or “modulators.” Retinogeniculate terminals… Expand
Collateral projections of predorsal bundle cells of the superior colliculus in the rat
- M. E. Bickford, W. C. Hall
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of comparative neurology
- 1 May 1989
The deep layers of the superior colliculus contain cells which are premotor in the sense that they respond prior to the onset of shifts in gaze and send axons, by way of a pathway called the… Expand
Neurotransmitters contained in the subcortical extraretinal inputs to the monkey lateral geniculate nucleus
- M. E. Bickford, E. Ramcharan, D. Godwin, A. Erisir, J. Gnadt, S. Sherman
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of comparative neurology
- 4 September 2000
The lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) is the thalamic relay of retinal information to cortex. An extensive complement of nonretinal inputs to the LGN combine to modulate the responsiveness of relay… Expand
