丘脑外侧膝状体背侧核(DLGN)是视觉信息从视网膜到视皮层的主要通道。最初被视为一个简单的继电器，最近在小鼠身上的研究揭示了来自视网膜的输入在dLGN中组合、传输和处理的方式要复杂得多。在这里，我们通过研究视网膜向dLGN的投射模式以及它们如何汇聚到丘脑皮质神经元来塑造视觉信息流到视觉皮质，来考虑小鼠视网膜生成途径的结构和功能组织。
The dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of the thalamus is the principal conduit for visual information from retina to visual cortex. Viewed initially as a simple relay, recent studies in the mouse reveal far greater complexity in the way input from the retina is combined, transmitted, and processed in dLGN. Here we consider the structural and functional organization of the mouse retinogeniculate pathway by examining the patterns of retinal projections to dLGN and how they converge onto thalamocortical neurons to shape the flow of visual information to visual cortex.
