Classification of frequency response areas in the inferior colliculus reveals continua not discrete classes

open access: yesJournal of Physiology, 2013
•  Neurons in the auditory midbrain, the inferior colliculus, are selectively sensitive to combinations of sound frequency and level as illustrated by their frequency/level receptive fields. Different receptive field shapes have been described, but we do

Inhibitory effects of prepulse stimuli on the electrophysiological responses to startle stimuli in the deep layers of the superior colliculus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
BackgroundPrepulse inhibition (PPI) is a phenomenon where a weak prepulse stimulus inhibits the startle reflex to a subsequent stronger stimulus, which can be induced by various sensory stimulus modalities such as visual, tactile, and auditory stimuli ...

Age-related neurochemical changes in the rhesus macaque inferior colliculus.

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is marked by audiometric hearing deficits that propagate along the auditory pathway. Neurochemical changes as a function of aging have also been identified in neurons along the auditory pathway in both rodents and ...

Complete structure of topographic maps in ephrin-A deficient mice [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2005
Axons of retinal ganglion cells establish orderly projections to the superior colliculus of the midbrain. Axons of neighboring cells terminate proximally in the superior colliculus thus forming a topographically precise representation of the visual world.

Quantitative assessment of computational models for retinotopic map formation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
Molecular and activity-based cues acting together are thought to guide retinal axons to their terminal sites in vertebrate optic tectum or superior colliculus to form an ordered map of connections. The details of mechanisms involved, and the degree to which they might interact, are still not well understood.

The Evolution of the Pulvinar Complex in Primates and Its Role in the Dorsal and Ventral Streams of Cortical Processing

open access: yesVision, 2019
Current evidence supports the view that the visual pulvinar of primates consists of at least five nuclei, with two large nuclei, lateral pulvinar ventrolateral (PLvl) and central lateral nucleus of the inferior pulvinar (PIcl), contributing mainly to the

Inhibition shapes selectivity to vocalizations in the inferior colliculus of awake mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2012
The inferior colliculus (IC) is a major center for integration of auditory information as itreceives ascending projections from a variety of brainstem nuclei as well as descending projectionsfrom the thalamus and auditory cortex.
