Saszik S, Smith C
Behav Pharmacol . 2017 Sep; 29(1):53-59. PMID: 28926343
Stress has adverse effects on social behavior that is mediated by dopamine circuits in the midbrain. The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of chronic stress and...

Abd-El-Barr M, Pennesi M, Saszik S, Barrow A, Lem J, Bramblett D, et al.
J Neurophysiol . 2009 Jul; 102(3):1945-55. PMID: 19587322
A monumental task of the mammalian retina is to encode an enormous range (>10(9)-fold) of light intensities experienced by the animal in natural environments. Retinal neurons carry out this task...

Kang Derwent J, Saszik S, Maeda H, Little D, Pardue M, Frishman L, et al.
Vis Neurosci . 2007 Jul; 24(2):141-9. PMID: 17640404
Previous studies of rod photoreceptors in vivo have employed a paired-flash electroretinographic (ERG) technique to determine rod response properties. To test whether absence versus presence of the ERG b-wave affects...

Ohtoshi A, Wang S, Maeda H, Saszik S, Frishman L, Klein W, et al.
Curr Biol . 2004 Mar; 14(6):530-6. PMID: 15043821
Cone bipolar cells of the vertebrate retina connect photoreceptors with ganglion cells to mediate photopic vision. Despite this important role, the mechanisms that regulate cone bipolar cell differentiation are poorly...

Robson J, Saszik S, Ahmed J, Frishman L
J Physiol . 2003 Feb; 547(Pt 2):509-30. PMID: 12562933
The electroretinogram (ERG) of anaesthetised dark-adapted macaque monkeys was recorded in response to ganzfeld stimulation and rod- and cone-driven receptoral and postreceptoral components were separated and modelled. The test stimuli...

Saszik S, Robson J, Frishman L
J Physiol . 2002 Sep; 543(Pt 3):899-916. PMID: 12231647
The most sensitive response in the dark-adapted electroretinogram (ERG), the scotopic threshold response (STR) which originates from the proximal retina, has been identified in several mammals including humans, but previously...
