Fig. 7. Effects of concurrent pERK blockade in both retinas and geniculate neurons. In treated animals (n=10) the contralateral fibers fill nearly the entire nucleus (A,C), whereas those coming from the ipsilateral eye are largely diffused in the dLGN (B,D), overlapping through 18.5% of the total area (E). This distribution of fibers is significantly different from that of control animals (n=6; Student's t-test, P<0.05 for contralateral and ipsilateral). Error bars depict the s.d. Dashed lines indicate the relative eye-specific areas in normal P9 rats. Scale bar: 200 µm.
