Dampening spontaneous activity improves the light sensitivity and spatial acuity of optogenetic retinal prosthetic responses

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: John Martin Barrett from the InstitutNewcastle University have published the paper: Dampening Spontaneous Activity Improves the Light Sensitivity and Spatial Acuity of Optogenetic Retinal Prosthetic Responses, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
  • what: The authors used ChR2rd1 mice of both sexes aged P95-386 and, aside from the data presented in Fig 1, all mice were aged at least P209, well above the P168 cut-off for cone-mediated light responses previously reported in rd1 mice25. The authors have demonstrated for the first time that lowering spontaneous activity in dystrophic retinas decreases the . . .
