Time course of anoxia-induced K + concentration changes in the cochlea...
SummaryThe endocochlear potential (EP), potassium concentration in the endolymph (Ke+) and in the perilymph (Kp+) were measured in guinea-pigs during anoxia of different duration. Specific K+...

AbstractThe aim of this study was to gain information from anesthetized cats about the differential coding properties of neurons in the three major subdivisions of the inferior colliculus: the central...

AbstractAnimals vocalize for different reasons: to express their feeling and mood, to emit warning signals, to communicate with individuals of the same species. Vocalization plays a specific role in...

Abstract. The spontaneous and evoked activities of individual pairs of single units were recorded simultaneously with the same microelectrode in the medial geniculate body (MGB) of...

Abstract.The inferior colliculus (IC) represents a midbrain structure which integrates information from many ascending auditory pathways, descending corticotectal projections and intercollicular...

4. ConclusionsThe results of the present study document that a significant low-frequency hearing loss occurrs as early as in one-month-old F344 rats and results in a lack of recordable TEOAEs and in...

AbstractIndividual nuclei of the auditory pathway contribute in a specific way to the processing of complex acoustical signals. We investigated the responses of single neurons to typical guinea pig...

AbstractSMI-32 antibody recognizes a non-phosphorylated epitope of neurofilament proteins, which are thought to be necessary for the maintenance of large neurons with highly myelinated processes. We...

AbstractAging is accompanied by the deterioration of hearing that complicates our understanding of speech, especially in noisy environments. This deficit is partially caused by the loss of hair cells...
View ArticleFormation and disruption of tonotopy in a large-scale model of the auditory...
AbstractThere is ample experimental evidence describing changes of tonotopic organisation in the auditory cortex due to environmental factors. In order to uncover the underlying mechanisms, we designed...

AbstractFor all sensory organs, the establishment of spatial and temporal cortical resolution is assumed to be initiated by the first sensory experience and a BDNF-dependent increase in intracortical...

AbstractIn previous studies (Grécová et al., Eur J Neurosci 29:1921–1930, 2009; Bures et al., Eur J Neurosci 32:155–164, 2010), we demonstrated that after an early postnatal short noise exposure (8 min...

AbstractThe programming of cell fate by transcription factors requires precise regulation of their time and level of expression. The LIM-homeodomain transcription factor Islet1 (Isl1) is involved in...

AbstractThe development, maturation, and maintenance of the inner ear are governed by temporal and spatial expression cascades of transcription factors that form a gene regulatory network. ISLET1...
