Tinnitus-Related Changes in the Inferior Colliculus

Frontiers in Neurology, 2015
Tinnitus is highly complex, diverse, and difficult to treat, in part due to the fact that the underlying causes and mechanisms remain elusive. Tinnitus is generated within the auditory brain, however, consolidating our understanding of tinnitus ...

Cholinergic Projections From the Pedunculopontine Tegmental Nucleus Contact Excitatory and Inhibitory Neurons in the Inferior Colliculus

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2020
The inferior colliculus processes nearly all ascending auditory information. Most collicular cells respond to sound, and for a majority of these cells, the responses can be modulated by acetylcholine (ACh). The cholinergic effects are varied and, for the

Inferior colliculus syndrome: Clinical magnetic resonance microscopy anatomic analysis on a 7 T system

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2017
We performed detailed structural analysis of a case of a unilateral lesion of the inferior colliculus using magnetic resonance microscopy on a 7 T system.

Patterns of Unilateral and Bilateral Projections From Layers 5 and 6 of the Auditory Cortex to the Inferior Colliculus in Mouse

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2021
The auditory cortex sends massive projections to the inferior colliculus, but the organization of this pathway is not yet well understood. Previous work has shown that the corticocollicular projection emanates from both layers 5 and 6 of the auditory ...

Dopamine in Auditory Nuclei and Lemniscal Projections is Poised to Influence Acoustic Integration in the Inferior Colliculus

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021
Dopamine (DA) modulates the activity of nuclei within the ascending and descending auditory pathway. Previous studies have identified neurons and fibers in the inferior colliculus (IC) which are positively labeled for tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), a key ...

Auditory cortex shapes sound responses in the inferior colliculus

eLife, 2020
The extensive feedback from the auditory cortex (AC) to the inferior colliculus (IC) supports critical aspects of auditory behavior but has not been extensively characterized.

Measurement of inferior colliculus volume based on MRI image stacks and its relationship with age and hearing status. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
The inferior colliculus is a key nucleus in the central auditory pathway, integrating acoustic stimuli from both cochleae and playing a crucial role in sound localization.

Spatial-dependent suppressive aftereffect produced by a sound in the rat’s inferior colliculus is partially dependent on local inhibition [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
In a natural acoustic environment, a preceding sound can suppress the perception of a succeeding sound which can lead to auditory phenomena such as forward masking and the precedence effect.

Dopaminergic Input to the Inferior Colliculus in Mice

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2016
The response of sensory neurons to stimuli can be modulated by a variety of factors including attention, emotion, behavioral context, and disorders involving neuromodulatory systems.

Inferior Colliculus Microcircuits

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
A unique aspect of the auditory system is the inferior colliculus (IC). This large midbrain structure serves as an obligatory synaptic station in both the ascending and descending auditory pathways.
