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

Periodotopy in the gerbil inferior colliculus: local clustering rather than a gradient map
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]
BACKGROUND: A reduction of dopamine release or D2 receptor blockade in the terminal fields of the mesolimbic system clearly reduces conditioned fear.

Headplate Installation and Craniotomy for Awake In Vivo Electrophysiological Recordings or Two-Photon Imaging of the Mouse Inferior Colliculus [PDF]
The inferior colliculus (IC) is an important processing center in the auditory system, which also receives non-auditory sensory input. The IC consists of several subnuclei whose functional role in (non-) auditory processing and plastic response ...

Responses to dichotic tone-in-noise stimuli in the inferior colliculus [PDF]
Human listeners are more sensitive to tones embedded in diotic noise when the tones are out-of-phase at the two ears (N0Sπ) than when they are in-phase (N0S0).

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 ...

Tonotopic organization in the depth of human inferior colliculus
Experiments in animal models indicate that inferior colliculus (IC), the primary auditory midbrain structure, represents sound frequency in a particular spatial organization, a tonotopy, that proceeds from dorsal and superficial to ventral and deeper ...

Modulation of Auditory Cortex Activity in Salicylate-Induced Tinnitus Rats via Deep Brain Stimulation of the Inferior Colliculus. [PDF]
Deep brain stimulation of the inferior colliculus (ICx) significantly reduces auditory cortex hyperactivity in a rat model of tinnitus. This study highlights ICx stimulation as a promising therapeutic approach for tinnitus‐related neural dysregulation.

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 ...

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 ...
