The development of functional glutamatergic and GABAergic synaptic connections between vestibulo-ocular projection neurons and oculomotor motoneurons in the chicken embryo by Hiraku Mochida, Joel C. Glover

“…GABAergic responses involved the activation of voltage-gated calcium channels and were therefore likely to be depolarizing, but nevertheless had an inhibitory effect on glutamatergic responses. Paired pulse and train stimulation at d9-d11 demonstrated substantial facilitation of the aggregate response.DiscussionThese data provide new information about the functional development of vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) circuitry and set the stage for testing the role of specific receptors and downstream signaling in establishing the specific synaptic connections that characterize the VOR.…”
