Experience-dependent changes in NMDA and AMPA receptor subunit expression Comparison of excitatory receptor subunits NR1 (A–C), NR2A (D–F), NR2B (G–I) and GluR2 (J–L) in normal (open symbols, dashed lines) and monocularly deprived (filled symbols, solid lines) kittens from the central (red circles), peripheral (green squares) and monocular (black diamonds) visual field representations during postnatal development. For each subunit, the plots were normalized relative to the average normal adult expression in the central visual field. Error bars indicate the s.e.m. Representative Western blot bands are shown above each plot.
