Auditory Plasticity: Vocal Output Shapes Auditory Cortex
Studies in humans and songbirds have revealed a close link between vocal output and hearing. Now experiments in marmosets have shown that self-generated vocalizations can modulate the activity of neurons in the auditory cortex and even remodel their response properties.
متن کاملManipulation of a Central Auditory Representation Shapes Learned Vocal Output
Learned vocalizations depend on the ear's ability to monitor and ultimately instruct the voice. Where is auditory feedback processed in the brain, and how does it modify motor networks for learned vocalizations? Here we addressed these questions using singing-triggered microstimulation and chronic recording methods in the singing zebra finch, a small songbird that relies on auditory feedback to...
متن کاملDynamics of auditory-vocal interaction in monkey auditory cortex.
Single neurons in the primate auditory cortex exhibit vocalization-related modulations (excitatory or inhibitory) during self-initiated vocal production. Previous studies have shown that these modulations of cortical activity are variable in individual neurons' responses to multiple instances of vocalization and diverse between different cortical neurons. The present study investigated dynamic ...
متن کاملInhibitory Plasticity in Auditory Cortex
Arguably the most important property of neuronal circuits in general, and of cortical circuits in particular, is plasticity--the ability to change in response to past experience. While many studies of plasticity emphasize changes in excitatory transmission, in this issue of Neuron, Galindo-Leon et al. demonstrate the important role that increased inhibition may play in shaping cortical response...
متن کاملHow Dopamine Shapes Representations in Auditory Cortex
The neural representation of sound in the auditory cortex is not invariably predetermined by its acoustical properties, but it is constantly reshaped while the listener acquires new experiences. Such plastic changes are a prerequisite for lifelong learning and allow some degree of rehabilitation after brain injuries. Several neurotransmitter systems modulate these plastic changes. In this paper...
