Functional Connectivity Map of Retinal Ganglion Cells for Retinal Prosthesis

Abstract: Retinal prostheses are being developed to restore vision for the blind with retinal diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP) or age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Among the many issues for prosthesis development, stimulation encoding strategy is one of the most essential electrophysiological issues. The more we understand the retinal circuitry how it encodes and processes visual information, the greater it could help decide stimulation encoding strategy for retinal prosthesis. Therefore, we examined how… Show more

“…Thus, the sequence of subthreshold pulses can be considered to be a suprathreshold stimulus. We are not the first to make this observation that spreading stimulation out over extended time can reduce the stimulus amplitude necessary to elicit a response (Sekirnjak et al 2006;Boinagrov et al 2010;Johnson et al 2004;Eickenscheidt et al 2012;Ye et al 2008;Grumet et al 2000;Goo et al 2011;Samba et al 2015). In fact, this relationship underlies the classic strength-duration curve.…”

“…Due to the advantage of large number of recording and stimulation channels, multielectrode array (MEA) electrodes have been used to record from a wide variety of neuronal preparations including the isolated retina [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ].…”

“…The control of this process is thought to be the basis of cognition, and irregularities are thought to be at the core of many mental disorders, substance abuse, and seizures. Functional connectivity, an important component of this problem, has been studied at the cognitive level using fMRI (Logothetis, 2003 ; Zhou et al, 2009 ), MEG (Owen et al, 2009 ; Stam, 2009 ; Babajani-Feremi and Soltanian-Zadeh, 2010 ), and EEG (Cantero et al, 2009 ; Carbonell et al, 2009 ; de Haan et al, 2009 ), and at the microcircuit level using multi-electrode arrays (Chiu and Weliky, 2002 ; Pillow et al, 2008 ; Ye et al, 2008 ; Field et al, 2010 ) and optical imaging techniques (Cacciatore et al, 1999 ; Taylor et al, 2003 ). While these approaches have yielded important insights into brain function, they have typically either addressed global pathways or microcircuitry without linking the two together.…”
