Order-sensitive plasticity in adult primary auditory cortex.
The neural response to a stimulus presented as part of a rapid sequence is often quite different from the response to the same stimulus presented in isolation. In primary auditory cortex (A1), although the most common effect of preceding stimuli is inhibitory, most neurons can also exhibit response facilitation if the appropriate spectral and temporal separation of sequence elements is presente...
متن کاملPlasticity in the frequency representation of primary auditory cortex following discrimination training in adult owl monkeys.
Previous studies have shown that the tonotopic organization of primary auditory cortex is altered subsequent to restricted cochlear lesions (Robertson and Irvine, 1989) and that the topographic reorganization of the primary somatosensory cortex is correlated with changes in the perceptual acuity of the animal (Recanzone et al., 1992a-d). Here we report an increase in the cortical area of repres...
متن کاملNatural restoration of critical period plasticity in the juvenile and adult primary auditory cortex.
Since its first description >40 years ago, the neurological "critical period" has been predominantly described as an early, plastic postnatal brain development stage that rather abruptly advances to an aplastic or less plastic "adult" stage. Here, we show that chronic exposure of juvenile or adult rats to moderate-level acoustic noise results in a broad reversal of maturational changes that mar...
متن کاملLearning-Induced Receptive Field Plasticity in the Primary Auditory Cortex
Primary sensory cortex in the adult is modified by learning. The primary auditory cortex is retuned when a tone is paired with a behaviorally relevant reinforcer. Frequency receptive fields are shifted toward or to the frequency of the signal stimulus, yielding enhanced processing and representation of important frequencies. Receptive field plasticity constitutes ‘‘physiological memory’’ becaus...
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...
