Evidence of multisensory plasticity: Asymmetrical medial geniculate body in people with one eye [PDF]
The medial geniculate body (MGB) plays a central role in auditory processing with both efferent and afferent tracts to primary auditory cortex. People who have lost one eye early in life have enhanced sound localization, lack visual over auditory ...

ARC/Arg3.1 expression in the lateral geniculate body of monocular form deprivation amblyopic kittens [PDF]
Purpose The present study compared the expression of activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein (ARC/Arg3.1) in the lateral geniculate body between form deprivation amblyopia kittens and normal kittens to examine the significance of ARC/Arg3.1 in

The Effect of Noise Trauma and Deep Brain Stimulation of the Medial Geniculate Body on Tissue Activity in the Auditory Pathway [PDF]
Tinnitus is defined as the phantom perception of sound. To date, there is no curative treatment, and contemporary treatments have failed to show beneficial outcomes. Deep brain stimulation has been suggested as a potential therapy for refractory tinnitus.

Modulation of tonotopic ventral medial geniculate body is behaviorally relevant for speech recognition [PDF]
Sensory thalami are central sensory pathway stations for information processing. Their role for human cognition and perception, however, remains unclear. Recent evidence suggests an involvement of the sensory thalami in speech recognition. In particular,

Medial geniculate body and primary auditory cortex differentially contribute to striatal sound representations [PDF]
The precise role of auditory cortical and thalamic projections in the representation of sound in the auditory striatum is not known. Here, the authors show that silencing thalamic inputs lowers the gain of sound-evoked responses while cortical inputs ...

A computational model of cellular mechanisms of temporal coding in the medial geniculate body (MGB). [PDF]
Acoustic stimuli are often represented in the early auditory pathway as patterns of neural activity synchronized to time-varying features. This phase-locking predominates until the level of the medial geniculate body (MGB), where previous studies have ...

Projections from the dorsal and ventral cochlear nuclei to the medial geniculate body [PDF]
Direct projections from the cochlear nucleus (CN) to the medial geniculate body (MG) mediate a high-speed transfer of acoustic information to the auditory thalamus. Anderson et al., (2006, Eur. J. Neurosci.

Integrative action in the cat's lateral geniculate body
Abstract : Cells were recorded with tungsten electrodes in the dorsal lateral geniculate body of the cat. Receptive fields of these units were mapped out, in the light-adapted state, with small sports of light. In their general arrangement geniculate receptive fields resembled those of retinal ganglion cells, having an excitatory ('on') centre and ...

Category-specific neuronal activity in left and right auditory cortex and in medial geniculate body of monkeys. [PDF]
We address the question of whether the auditory cortex of the left and right hemisphere and the auditory thalamus are differently involved in the performance of cognitive tasks.
