Temporal Expression of Wnt1 Defines the Competency State and Terminal Identity of Progenitors in the Developing Cochlear Nucleus and Inferior Colliculus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2017
The auditory system contains a diverse array of interconnected anatomical structures that mediate the perception of sound. The cochlear nucleus of the hindbrain serves as the initial site of convergence for auditory stimuli, while the inferior colliculus

Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation for Disorders of Consciousness: A Narrative Review of Potential Mechanisms, Clinical Evidence, and Future Perspectives

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.
Preclinical studies indicate that Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation (TNS) treats Disorders of Consciousness (DoC) by activating neural pathways that promote the release of orexin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. Additionally, TNS modulates cerebral hemodynamics and immunoregulation to enhance consciousness in experimental animals.

Cytology of large neurons in the guinea pig dorsal cochlear nucleus contacting the inferior colliculus

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2009
Large neurons in the dorsal cochlear nucleus of the guinea pig which project to the inferior colliculus were identified after injections of the neural tracer WGA-HRP.

Developmental Trajectory of Auditory Brainstem Deficits in a Mouse Model of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders

open access: yesDevelopmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Individuals with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders exhibit impaired auditory processing and atypical auditory behaviors across the disorder's spectrum. Although low to moderate prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) is a prevalent type of exposure, the developmental trajectory of auditory processing deficits resulting from this level of exposure ...

Adaptation of Binaural Processing in the Adult Brainstem Induced by Ambient Noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Interaural differences in stimulus intensity and timing are major cues for sound localization. In mammals, these cues are first processed in the lateral and medial superior olive by interaction of excitatory and inhibitory synaptic inputs from ipsi- and ...

Dopaminergic Input to the Inferior Colliculus in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Muscarinic agonists for schizophrenia: Bridging preclinical evidence and clinical enthusiasm

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 19, Page 5701-5731, October 2026.
Abstract Antipsychotic drugs targeting dopamine receptors have been used to treat schizophrenia for decades, primarily alleviating positive symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions. However, they provide limited benefit for cognitive and negative symptoms—major contributors to poor outcomes—and are frequently associated with significant side ...

Noise reduction of coincidence detector output by the inferior colliculus of the barn owl [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A recurring theme in theoretical work is that integration over populations of similarly tuned neurons can reduce neural noise. However, there are relatively few demonstrations of an explicit noise reduction mechanism in a neural network.

Emergence of Deviance Detection in Cortical Cultures Through Maturation, Criticality, and Early Experience

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 64, Issue 7, October 2026.
Deviance detection (DD) emerges in dissociated cortical cultures around DIV15 and remains detectable through maturation. Near‐critical network dynamics are associated with stronger DD responses. Early structured stimulation was associated with descriptive differences in response timing and DD strength, although mature‐stage group differences were not ...

Psychophysical and physiological evidence for fast binaural processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The mammalian auditory system is the temporally most precise sensory modality: To localize low-frequency sounds in space, the binaural system can resolve time differences between the ears with microsecond precision.
