Plasticity of the visual cortex and treatment of amblyopia. (2014, neutral): “No drug treatment of amblyopia is currently available, but a number of avenues are being explored based on present knowledge of critical period control (for a review see [23].”
Role of emergent neural activity in visual map development (2013, neutral): “Regulation of cellular anatomy and physiology by spontaneous activity Though visual experience has a clear role in directing the refinement of synaptic connectivity [7], much of the topography of neural circuits and the elaboration of cellular morphology are established early in development, before ”
Adolescence as a neurobiological critical period for the development of higher-order cognition (2018, positive): “CPs are thought to be triggered by a combination of experience and the reduction of the E/I balance that follows the maturation of neural inhibition (Toyoizumi et al., 2013).”
Plasticity during Sleep Is Linked to Specific Regulation of Cortical Circuit Activity (2017, background): “…excitability, but are likewise involved in regulating information processing and neuronal plasticity underlying the encoding and formation of specific memories (e.g., Hensch, 2005; Levelt and Hübener, 2012; Lovett-Barron et al., 2012; Liguz-Lecznar et al., 2016; Scheyltjens and Arckens, 2016).”
Firing Rate Homeostasis in Visual Cortex of Freely Behaving Rodents (2013, methodology): “…MD paradigm (lid suture) to perturb visual drive in juvenile rats during a developmental period (postnatal days 27–32 [P27–P32]), when this perturbation is known to induce both Hebbian and homeostatic forms of plasticity within V1 (Smith et al., 2009; Turrigiano, 2011; Levelt and Hübener, 2012).”
Functional connectivity of visual cortex in the blind follows retinotopic organization principles (2015, background): “…creation, maintenance and refinement of binocular ocular dominance organization or orientation selectivity (Lewis and Maurer, 2005; Espinosa and Stryker, 2012; Levelt and Hübener, 2012; Maurer and Hensch, 2012; Reid, 2012) are present or inducible in the congenitally blind (Renier et al., 2014).”
Variance and invariance of neuronal long-term representations (2017, neutral): “On the population level this shift is known to be fully reversible after a period of binocular vision following MD [8,79,80,83].”
Critical periods in speech perception: new directions. (2015, background): “Molecular tools have now begun to unravel the cellular mechanisms that control the onset and closure of such windows for cortical plasticity (for recent reviews, see Espinosa & Stryker 2012, Levelt & Hübener 2012, Takesian & Hensch 2013).”
