Corrigendum: Ih Equalizes Membrane Input Resistance in a Heterogeneous Population of Fusiform Neurons in the Dorsal Cochlear Nucleus
In a neuronal population, several combinations of its ionic conductances are used to attain a specific firing phenotype. Some neurons present heterogeneity in their firing, generally produced by expression of a specific conductance, but how additional conductances vary along in order to homeostatically regulate membrane excitability is less known. Dorsal cochlear nucleus principal neurons, fusi...
متن کاملHeterogeneous biophysical properties of frog dorsal medullary nucleus (cochlear nucleus) neurons.
The cochlear nucleus (CN) in mammals, or its counterpart in birds, has multiple subdivisions each containing distinct morphological and functional (i.e., temporal discharge patterns and biophysical properties) cell types that project to different auditory nuclei in the brain stem in parallel. The analogous structure in frogs, the dorsal medullary nucleus (DMN), is a single phylogenetically olde...
متن کاملElevated fusiform cell activity in the dorsal cochlear nucleus of chinchillas with psychophysical evidence of tinnitus.
Chinchillas with psychophysical evidence of chronic tinnitus were shown to have significantly elevated spontaneous activity and stimulus-evoked responses in putative fusiform cells of the dorsal cochlear nuclei (DCN). Chinchillas were psychophysically trained and tested before and after exposure to a traumatic unilateral 80 dB (sound pressure level) 4 kHz tone. Before exposure, two groups were ...
متن کاملMembrane properties and discharge characteristics of guinea pig dorsal cochlear nucleus neurons studied in vitro.
Intracellular recordings were made from neurons of the guinea pig dorsal cochlear nucleus in an in vitro brain slice preparation. The membrane properties of the cells were studied, and the membrane potentials were manipulated by current injection to determine how intrinsic conductances might alter the cell discharge patterns. Eleven cells were marked with Lucifer yellow. Ten of these cells were...
متن کاملMapping and morphometric analysis of synapses and spines on fusiform cells in the dorsal cochlear nucleus
Fusiform cells are the main integrative units of the mammalian dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN), collecting and processing inputs from auditory and other sources before transmitting information to higher levels of the auditory system. Despite much previous work describing these cells and the sources and pharmacological identity of their synaptic inputs, information on the three-dimensional organiz...
