Brain and Behavior, 2023 Introduction The efferent vestibular system (EVS) is a feedback circuit thought to modulate vestibular afferent activity by inhibiting type II hair cells and exciting calyx‐bearing afferents in the peripheral vestibular organs.

Characterizing the Access of Cholinergic Antagonists to Efferent Synapses in the Inner Ear
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Stimulation of cholinergic efferent neurons innervating the inner ear has profound, well-characterized effects on vestibular and auditory physiology, after activating distinct ACh receptors (AChRs) on afferents and hair cells in peripheral endorgans ...

Olivocochlear Changes Associated With Aging Predominantly Affect the Medial Olivocochlear System
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is a public health problem that has been associated with negative health outcomes ranging from increased frailty to an elevated risk of developing dementia.

Cholinergic efferent synaptic transmission regulates the maturation of auditory hair cell ribbon synapses [PDF]
Open Biology, 2013 Spontaneous electrical activity generated by developing sensory cells and neurons is crucial for the maturation of neural circuits. The full maturation of mammalian auditory inner hair cells (IHCs) depends on patterns of spontaneous action potentials ...

Neurons with stereotyped and rapid responses provide a reference frame for relative temporal coding in primate auditory cortex [PDF]
, 2012 The precise timing of spikes of cortical neurons relative to stimulus onset carries substantial sensory information. To access this information the sensory systems would need to maintain an internal temporal reference that reflects the precise stimulus ...

Visual and Electrosensory Circuits of the Diencephalon in Mormyrids [PDF]
, 1990 Mormyrids are one of two groups of teleost fishes known to have evolved electroreception, and the concomitant neuroanatomical changes have confounded the interpretation of many of their brain areas in a comparative context, e.g., the diencephalon, where ...

Evolutionary convergence of a neural mechanism in the cavefish lateral line system
eLife, 2022 Animals can evolve dramatic sensory functions in response to environmental constraints, but little is known about the neural mechanisms underlying these changes.

Biology Open, 2015 During development, HOX genes play critical roles in the establishment of segmental differences. In the Drosophila central nervous system, these differences are manifested in the number and type of neurons generated by each neuroblast in each segment ...
