The geniculocortical pathways of albino ferrets have been studied by injecting lectin bound horseradish peroxidase into the visual cortex and then studying the geniculate distribution of retrogradely labelled cells in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus. It has been shown that in ferrets, as in Siamese cats, there are two quite distinct patterns of geniculocortical projection. One of the patterns seen in ferrets is comparable to the 'Midwestern' pattern previously described in Siamese cats, while the other is comparable to the 'Boston' pattern.
通过将结合辣根过氧化物酶的凝集素注入视觉皮层,然后研究背外侧膝状核中逆行标记细胞的膝状分布,对白化雪貂的膝状皮质通路进行了研究。结果表明,与暹罗猫一样,雪貂存在两种截然不同的膝状皮质投射模式。雪貂中观察到的一种模式与先前在暹罗猫中描述的“中西部”模式相当,而另一种则与“波士顿”模式相当。
