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 ...

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

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).

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.

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.

Protocol for identifying sound-activated neurons in the inferior colliculus by cFos immunostaining [PDF]

STAR Protocols
Summary: cfos is an immediate early gene commonly used to identify neuronal activation. After loud sound stimulation, neurons in the inferior colliculus are activated and cFos is expressed in the nucleus.

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.

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.
