Molecular layer inhibitory interneurons provide feedforward and lateral inhibition in the dorsal cochlear nucleus.
In the outer layers of the dorsal cochlear nucleus, a cerebellum-like structure in the auditory brain stem, multimodal sensory inputs drive parallel fibers to excite both principal (fusiform) cells and inhibitory cartwheel cells. Cartwheel cells, in turn, inhibit fusiform cells and other cartwheel cells. At the microcircuit level, it is unknown how these circuit components interact to modulate ...

متن کاملRevealing the molecular layer of the primate dorsal cochlear nucleus.
In nonprimate mammals, the dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN) is thought to play a role in the orientation of the head toward sounds of interest by integrating acoustic and somatosensory information. Humans and higher primates might not use this system because of reported phylogenetic changes in DCN cytoarchitecture [Moskowitz N (1969) Comparative aspects of some features of the central auditory sys...
متن کاملSpectral integration by type II interneurons in dorsal cochlear nucleus.
The type II unit is a prominent inhibitory interneuron in the dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN), most likely recorded from vertical cells. Type II units are characterized by low rates of spontaneous activity, weak responses to broadband noise, and vigorous, narrowly tuned responses to tones. The weak responses of type II units to broadband stimuli are unusual for neurons in the lower auditory syste...
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...
