2020, iScienceCitation Excerpt :Following the early loss of vision, cortical areas associated with both the lost sense as well as spared sensory systems are profoundly affected. In EB mice, rats, and cats, the connections of primary visual cortex are drastically altered, such that cortico-cortical projections from somatosensory and auditory areas densely project to what would have been visual cortex (Berman, 1991; Dye et al., 2012; Laemle et al., 2006; Negyessy et al., 2000). Studies in our laboratory demonstrate that, in enucleated opossums, V1 receives input from somatosensory areas of the cortex and thalamus and that cortical connections of S1 are altered as well (Dooley and Krubitzer, 2019; Karlen et al., 2006).
White matter connectivity between occipital and temporal regions involved in face and voice processing in hearing and early deaf individuals
2018, NeuroImageCitation Excerpt :Accordingly, it has been suggested that the emergence of functional cross-modal plasticity might be, at least in part, supported by a combination of both preserved heteromodal structural connections and minor reorganization of cortico-cortical connectivity in early deafness (Barone et al., 2013; Butler et al., 2017b). This notion is also supported by the evidence, provided by animal models of blindness, that a near-normal pattern of connections is maintained in the occipital cortex in the absence, or following early lack, of visual inputs (Berman, 1991; Karlen et al., 2006). In addition, a similar dichotomy between near-normal patterns of anatomical connectivity and substantial functional reorganization has also been reported in visually deprived cats (Mower et al., 1985) and early blind humans (Shimony et al., 2006).
Long-Lasting Crossmodal Cortical Reorganization Triggered by Brief Postnatal Visual Deprivation
2015, Current BiologyCitation Excerpt :Histological studies demonstrate that exuberant projections from the auditory to the visual cortex existing in newborn kittens and macaque monkeys are gradually eliminated during the synaptic pruning phase [33–36], with only a small fraction of these projections being maintained into adulthood [37, 38]. Importantly, extrinsic connections to the occipital cortex remain in kittens deprived of vision at birth [39–41]. It is therefore possible that even a short transient period of visual deprivation early in life is sufficient to trigger the reinforcement of a significant number of direct auditory connections to the occipital cortex [8, 42].
