1.
Casanova C, Chalupa L
Front Neurosci . 2023 Sep; 17:1258393. PMID: 37712093
In most neuroscience textbooks, the thalamus is presented as a structure that relays sensory signals from visual, auditory, somatosensory, and gustatory receptors to the cerebral cortex. But the function of...

Rubin C, van der List D, Ballesteros J, Goloshchapov A, Chalupa L, Chapman B
PLoS One . 2011 May; 6(4):e18626. PMID: 21547082
Mice lacking expression of the ß2 subunit of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (CHRNB2) display abnormal retinal waves and a dispersed projection of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons to their...

Chalupa L
Neural Dev . 2009 Jul; 4:25. PMID: 19580684
In all mammalian species the projections of the two eyes to the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus are initially overlapping before gradually forming the eye-specific domains evident at maturity. It is...

Ballesteros J, van der List D, Chalupa L
Thalamus Relat Syst . 2009 Apr; 3(2):157-163. PMID: 19367340
We compared the developmental periods in the mouse when projections from the two eyes become segregated in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus with the time when this nucleus becomes innervated...

Murray K, Rubin C, Jones E, Chalupa L
J Neurosci . 2008 Nov; 28(46):12010-22. PMID: 19005066
In anthropoid primates, cells in the magnocellular and parvocellular layers of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) are distinguished by unique retinal inputs, receptive field properties, and laminar terminations of...

Sun C, Speer C, Wang G, Chapman B, Chalupa L
J Neurophysiol . 2008 Oct; 100(6):3253-63. PMID: 18922954
Epibatidine (EPI), a potent cholinergic agonist, disrupts acetylcholine-dependent spontaneous retinal activity. Early patch-clamp recordings in juvenile ferrets suggested that EPI blocks all retinal ganglion cell (RGC) action potentials when applied...

Sun C, Warland D, Ballesteros J, van der List D, Chalupa L
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2008 Sep; 105(36):13638-43. PMID: 18757739
The structural and functional properties of the visual system are disrupted in mutant animals lacking the beta2 subunit of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. In particular, eye-specific retinogeniculate projections do not...

Wang G, van der List D, Nemargut J, Coombs J, Chalupa L
J Vis . 2008 Jan; 7(14):7.1-13. PMID: 18217802
We have shown previously that increasing the production of nitric oxide (NO) results in a dampening of visual responses of retinal ganglion cells (G. Y. Wang, L. C. Liets, &...

Gunhan E, Swe M, Palazoglu M, Voss J, Chalupa L
Protein Expr Purif . 2008 Jan; 58(2):203-9. PMID: 18164211
Saporin, a ribosome inactivating protein is widely used for immunotoxin construction. Here we describe a mutation of saporin (sap)-3 DNA by introducing a cysteine residue, followed by protein expression and...

Coombs J, van der List D, Chalupa L
J Comp Neurol . 2007 Jun; 503(6):803-14. PMID: 17570502
Quantitative methods were used to assess dendritic stratification and other structural features of developing mouse retinal ganglion cells from birth to after eye opening. Cells were labeled by transgenic expression...
