Galvanic Stimulation of the Vestibular Periphery in Guinea Pigs During
23 Irregular vestibular afferents exhibit significant phase leads with respect to angular velocity of 24 the head in space. This characteristic and their connectivity with vestibulospinal neurons 25 suggest a functionally important role for these afferents in producing the vestibulo-collic 26 reflex (VCR). A goal of these experiments was to test this hypothesis using weak galvanic 27 stimulatio...
متن کاملComparative morphology of rodent vestibular periphery. II. Cristae ampullares.
We made flattened neuroepithelial preparations of horizontal and vertical (anterior and posterior) cristae from mouse, rat, gerbil, guinea pig, chinchilla, and tree squirrel. Calretinin immunohistochemistry was used to label the calyx class of afferents. Because these afferents are restricted to the central zone of the crista, their distribution allowed us to delineate this zone. In addition to...
متن کاملExpression of prestin, a membrane motor protein, in the mammalian auditory and vestibular periphery.
Hair cells are specialized mechanoreceptors common to auditory and vestibular sensory organs of mammalian and non-mammalian species. Different hair cells are believed to share common features related to their mechanosensory function. It has been shown that hair cells possess various forms of motile properties that enhance their receptor function. Membrane-based electromotility is a form of hair...
متن کاملThe Center and Periphery of Composite Graphs
The center (periphery) of a graph is the set of vertices with minimum (maximum) eccentricity. In this paper, the structure of centers and peripheries of some classes of composite graphs are determined. The relations between eccentricity, radius and diameter of such composite graphs are also investigated. As an application we determine the center and periphery of some chemical graphs such as nan...
متن کاملA ROTATORY MANEUVER TO REDUCE IMBALANCE OF THE VESTIBULAR SYSTEM IN PATIENTS WITH VESTIBULAR VERTIGO
In an attempt to diminish the intensity of vertigo, this study was designed to reduce the imbalance between the vestibular system on the two sides. By rotating the subjects with a string-activated rotating chair in opposite direction of the dominant side, the dominant side would be inhibited and simultaneously the subordinate ide would be stimulated. Eight patients with vestibular vertigo c...
