Competition and convergence between auditory and cross - modal visual inputs to 12 primary auditory cortical areas
42 Sensory neocortex is capable of considerable plasticity after sensory deprivation or damage to 43 input pathways, especially early in development. Although plasticity can often be restorative, 44 sometimes novel, ectopic inputs invade the affected cortical area. Invading inputs from other 45 sensory modalities may compromise the original function or even take over, imposing a new 46 function...

Although plasticity can often be restorative, sometimes novel, ectopic inputs invade the affected cortical area.

متن کاملCross-Modal Plasticity Results in Increased Inhibition in Primary Auditory Cortical Areas
Loss of sensory input from peripheral organ damage, sensory deprivation, or brain damage can result in adaptive or maladaptive changes in sensory cortex. In previous research, we found that auditory cortical tuning and tonotopy were impaired by cross-modal invasion of visual inputs. Sensory deprivation is typically associated with a loss of inhibition. To determine whether inhibitory plasticity...

Mammalian cerebral cortex is composed of a multitude of different areas that are each specialized for a unique purpose. It is unclear whether the activity pattern and modality of sensory inputs to cortex play an important role in the development of cortical regionalization. The modality of sensory inputs to cerebral cortex can be altered experimentally. Neonatal diversion of retinal axons to th...
متن کاملCompromise of auditory cortical tuning and topography after cross-modal invasion by visual inputs.
Brain damage resulting in loss of sensory stimulation can induce reorganization of sensory maps in cerebral cortex. Previous research on recovery from brain damage has focused primarily on adaptive plasticity within the affected modality. Less attention has been paid to maladaptive plasticity that may arise as a result of ectopic innervation from other modalities. Using ferrets in which neonata...
