Prepulse-elicited startle in prepulse inhibition.
BACKGROUND Prepulse inhibition (PPI) has become a major experimental paradigm in the study of psychiatric disorders. In this study, a potential confound in measurement and interpretation of PPI, namely startle reactions to so-called "nonstartling" prepulses, was examined. METHODS Prepulses of 80, 85, and 90 dB(A) were presented on their own or followed by a pulse of 115 dB(A) (lead interval: ...
متن کاملA Cellular Mechanism for Prepulse Inhibition
In prepulse inhibition (PPI), startle responses to sudden, unexpected stimuli are markedly attenuated if immediately preceded by a weak stimulus of almost any modality. This experimental paradigm exposes a potent inhibitory process, present in nervous systems from invertebrates to humans, that is widely considered to play an important role in reducing distraction during the processing of sensor...
متن کاملReflex excitability regulates prepulse inhibition.
Presentation of a weak stimulus, a prepulse, before a reflex-evoking stimulus decreases the amplitude of the reflex response relative to reflex amplitude evoked without a preceding prepulse. For example, presenting a brief tone before a trigeminal blink-eliciting stimulus significantly reduces reflex blink amplitude. A common explanation of such data are that sensory processing of the prepulse ...
متن کاملPrepulse inhibition of the Tritonia escape swim.
Presenting a weak stimulus just before a strong, startle stimulus reduces the amplitude of the ensuing startle response in humans and other vertebrates. This phenomenon, termed "prepulse inhibition" (PPI), appears to function to reduce distraction while processing sensory input. To date, no detailed neural mechanism has been described for PPI. Here we demonstrate PPI in the marine mollusk Trito...
متن کاملA Neural Network Model of Prepulse Inhibition
The authors introduce a real-time model of acoustic prepulse inhibition (PPI) and facilitation (PPF) in animals and humans. The model incorporates excitatory and facilitatory pathways activated by the positive value of changes in noise level in the environment and an inhibitory pathway activated by the absolute value of changes in noise level. Whereas excitation and facilitation are exponential...
