Blockade of N-cadherin or N-acetyl-galactosamine-terminated glycoconjugates, both of which are concentrated in the retinorecipient laminae of tectum, disrupts laminar targeting of retinal axons, both in co-cultures and in vivo. Exogenous neurotrophins affect the density of the retinal arbors but not their position.

Intraocular blockade of spontaneous activity provides evidence that such activity drives segregation of retinal afferents into eye-specific geniculate laminae. Together, this paper [38] and [39] show that complex patterns of spontaneous activity can exert complicated and subtle effects on patterns of connectivity.

Neuron. 19:1997;503-517. NT-3 is required for the survival of proprioceptive neurons and was also suspected to serve as a tropic factor for their central processes. By using transgene-supplied peripheral NT-3 to support survival of such neurons in otherwise NT-3-deficient mice, the authors were able to test and disprove this hypothesis.

Lamina-specific arborization of cortical neurons has long been thought to be activity-independent, in marked contrast to the activity dependence seen in the geniculate. This study blurs this contrast by showing that selectivity is degraded in the presence of the action potential blocker tetrodotoxin.

J Neurosci. 18:1998;4663-4672. Ephrin-A5 mRNA is expressed selectively by layer 4 cells in the cortex, and recombinant ephrin-A5 exerts distinct effects on cortical subpopulations in vitro. The results raise the possibility that ephrins may promote lamina-specific arborization of some neurons and inhibit arborization of others.
