Concerted Activities in Frog Retinal Ganglion Cells
In the present study, the spike discharges of frog retinal ganglion cells in response to repetitive full field white light flashes were recorded using multielectrode array. Cross-correlation analysis showed that two different types of concerted activities could be distinguished according to the peak width of the cross-correlation function. Further analysis revealed that the concerted activity pattern of ganglion cells was dependent on the distance between the neurons being examined: nearby cells often fired in precise synchrony, while correlated activities with distributed time lags were mainly observed from remote cell pairs.
