Hyperactivity in the ventral cochlear nucleus after cochlear trauma.
The emergence of hyperactivity in the form of elevated spontaneous firing rates after cochlear trauma has been well documented in a number of central auditory structures, including the auditory cortex, inferior colliculus, and dorsal subdivision of the cochlear nucleus. This hyperactivity is of interest as a possible neural substrate of tinnitus. Whether the ventral subdivision of the cochlear ...
متن کاملResponses of ventral cochlear nucleus units in the chinchilla to amplitude modulation by low-frequency, two-tone complexes.
For a tone that is amplitude modulated by two tones (fmod1 and fmod2), neither the stimulus waveform nor the half-wave rectified waveform has spectral energy at the envelope beat frequency (fmod2-fmod1). The response of ventral cochlear nucleus units in the chinchilla were recorded for best frequency tones that were amplitude modulated by low-frequency, two-tone complexes. Fourier analysis of p...
متن کاملProjections from the ventral cochlear nucleus to the dorsal cochlear nucleus in rats.
Local circuit interactions between the dorsal and ventral divisions of the cochlear nucleus are known to influence the evoked responses of the resident neurons to sound. In the present study, we examined the projections of neurons in the ventral cochlear nucleus to the dorsal cochlear nucleus by using retrograde transport of biotinylated dextran amine injected into restricted but different regi...
متن کاملCholinergic modulation of stellate cells in the mammalian ventral cochlear nucleus.
The main source of excitation to the ventral cochlear nucleus (VCN) is from glutamatergic auditory nerve afferents, but the VCN is also innervated by two groups of cholinergic efferents from the ventral nucleus of the trapezoid body. One arises from collaterals of medial olivocochlear efferents, and the other arises from neurons that project solely to the VCN. This study examines the action of ...
متن کاملEnhancement of forward suppression begins in the ventral cochlear nucleus
A neuron׳s response to a sound can be suppressed by the presentation of a preceding sound. It has been suggested that this suppression is a direct correlate of the psychophysical phenomenon of forward masking, however, forward suppression, as measured in the responses of the auditory nerve, was insufficient to account for behavioural performance. In contrast the neural suppression seen in the i...
