With daily electrophysiological recordings and neurochemical analysis, we uncovered a transient period of synaptic imbalance between enhanced inhibition and suppressed excitation in rat visual cortical neurons from the end of the fourth toward the end of the fifth postnatal weeks.
The expression of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which normally enhances excitation and suppresses...
Non‐technical summary Previously, our laboratory has reported that within a narrow window toward the end of the second postnatal week in a rat's life, many sudden neurochemical and functional changes occurred that rendered the animal less responsive to decreased oxygen supply. The present study extends these findings to the recordings of single nerve cells and documents that, during this critical...
