Constantine-Paton M
Brain Res
. 2011 Feb;
158(1):31-43.
PMID: 21348350
To identify parameters of optic tract growth that may be independent of the region of the CNS in which the tract develops, eye primordia of embryonic Rana pipiens were transplanted...

J Neurosci
. 2001 Aug;
21(16):6233-44.
PMID: 11487646
Slabs of slow-release plastic (Elvax) containing NMDA or solvent were implanted over the rat colliculus beginning on postnatal day 8 (P8). Whole-cell patch clamping in the superficial superior collicular layers...

Colonnese M, Constantine-Paton M
J Neurosci
. 2001 Feb;
21(5):1557-68.
PMID: 11222646
We have investigated the role of the NMDA glutamate receptor (NMDAR) in the genesis and regulation of structural plasticity during synaptogenesis in the visual layers of the rat superior colliculus...

Neuron
. 2000 Nov;
28(1):103-14.
PMID: 11086987
Whole-cell recording in the superficial layers of the developing superior colliculus (sSC) reveals a large drop in NMDA receptor (NMDAR) current decay time synchronized across all neurons and occurring consistently...

Aamodt S, Shi J, Colonnese M, Veras W, Constantine-Paton M
J Neurophysiol
. 2000 Mar;
83(3):1580-91.
PMID: 10712481
Maturation of excitatory synaptic connections depends on the amount and pattern of their activity, and activity can affect development of inhibitory synapses as well. In the superficial visual layers of...

Scheetz A, Nairn A, Constantine-Paton M
Nat Neurosci
. 2000 Mar;
3(3):211-6.
PMID: 10700251
We demonstrate a rapid and complex effect of N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) activation on synaptic protein synthesis in the superior colliculi of young rats. Within minutes of receptor activation, translation of...

Aamodt S, Constantine-Paton M
Adv Neurol
. 1999 Oct;
79:133-44.
PMID: 10514810
In much of the developing nervous system, electrical activity guides the formation of neural connections, with lasting effects on adult brain function. Epilepsy, a defect in neuronal excitability, might result...

Renteria R, Constantine-Paton M
J Neurosci
. 1999 Aug;
19(16):7066-76.
PMID: 10436061
The role of nitric oxide (NO) as a mediator of synaptic plasticity is controversial in both the adult and developing brain. NO generation appears to be necessary for some types...

Lin S, Constantine-Paton M
J Neurosci
. 1998 Jun;
18(10):3725-37.
PMID: 9570803
Electrophysiological studies have documented the existence of synapses showing only NMDA ionotropic glutamate receptor function that are therefore presumably "silent" at resting membrane potentials. Silent synapses are more prevalent in...
