Non-Centered Spike-Triggered Covariance Analysis Reveals Neurotrophin-3 as a Developmental Regulator of Receptive Field Properties of ON-OFF Retinal Ganglion Cells
Figure 3
STC-NC Bias correlates well with the Spot Response Bias.
(A) ON-center RGC response to spot stimulation. Time-course of stimulus above the histogram. The dark horizontal line indicates a dark spot stimulus. The cell spikes at the offset of the dark spot. (B) ON-center RGC 1D STE projection onto the STC-NC direction and resulting static nonlinearity. (C) ON-OFF RGC response to spot stimulation. The cell spikes following both the onset and offset of the dark spot. This cell also gave a delayed ON response to the offset of the dark spot. (D) ON-OFF RGC 1D STE projection onto the STC-NC direction and the resulting static nonlinearity. (E) Scatter plot of the Spot Response Bias against the STC-NC Bias showed that they were well correlated (R = 0.84).
