Cross-Modal Recruitment of Primary Visual Cortex by Auditory Stimuli in the Nonhuman Primate Brain: A Molecular Mapping Study
Figure 3
Interaction plot of the ANOVA conducted on cell counts. The primary visual cortex (V1) shows high expression of Zif268 when exposed to conditions , AVE, and compared to baseline expression when exposed to condition . In contrast, the primary auditory cortex (A1) shows high protein expression only when exposed to conditions AVN and AVE and baseline expression when exposed to and . VA: visual stimulation followed by auditory stimulation; AV: auditory followed by visual stimulation; N: naïve group (no prior experience with the association of auditory and visual stimuli); E: experienced group (45 minutes of exposure to the association of auditory and visual stimuli, 24 hours prior to experiencing the stimulus sequence). Relative density measures are represented as Mean ± SEM.
