Figure 3.
Regional changes in the expression of excitatory receptor subunits (A) NR1, (B) NR2A, (C) NR2B, and (D) GluR2 in kittens monocularly deprived up to 6 weeks of age. The expression in the central (red), peripheral (green), and monocular (black) visual field representation was measured as a percent of age matched normal kittens for each region of visual cortex. Dashed lines represent the relative expression in normally reared kittens. Significant differences are indicated (*p < 0.05;**p < 0.01).
