Inferior Colliculus Microcircuits [PDF]
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.

Dopaminergic Input to the Inferior Colliculus in Mice [PDF]
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.

Tinnitus-related changes in the inferior colliculus [PDF]
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 ...

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

The Inferior Colliculus in Alcoholism and Beyond [PDF]
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2020 Post-mortem neuropathological and in vivo neuroimaging methods have demonstrated the vulnerability of the inferior colliculus to the sequelae of thiamine deficiency as occurs in Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome (WKS).

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.

Subtypes of GABAergic cells in the inferior colliculus [PDF]
Hearing Research, 2019 The inferior colliculus occupies a central position in ascending and descending auditory pathways. A substantial proportion of its neurons are GABAergic, and these neurons contribute to intracollicular circuits as well as to extrinsic projections to numerous targets.

Periodotopy in the gerbil inferior colliculus: local clustering rather than a gradient map
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2015 Periodicities in sound waveforms are widespread, and shape important perceptual attributes of sound including rhythm and pitch. Previous studies have indicated that, in the inferior colliculus, a key processing stage in the auditory midbrain, neurons ...

Dopamine D2-like receptors modulate unconditioned fear: role of the inferior colliculus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 BACKGROUND: A reduction of dopamine release or D2 receptor blockade in the terminal fields of the mesolimbic system clearly reduces conditioned fear.

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013 Frequency modulations occur in many natural sounds, including vocalizations. The neuronal response to frequency modulated (FM) stimuli has been studied extensively in different brain areas, with an emphasis on the auditory cortex and the central nucleus ...
