[Convergent properties of 3 types of visual cortex neurons recorded with various action potential amplitudes].
Responses of visual cortex neurones recorded with large (N1), mean (N2) and small (N3) amplitudes of action potentials to photic, acoustic and electro-cutaneous stimuli were studied. It was shown that N1 neurones as differing from N3 were predominantly polymodal, often reacted with inhibitory responses and their background activity was characterized by random distribution of interstimuli intervals. Inputs for heteromodal stimuli were found to differ in N1 and N3 neurones. The results suggest existence of functional heterogeneity of neurones, recorded with different action potential amplitudes.
