Delineation of a frequency-organized region isolated from the mouse primary auditory cortex
The primary auditory cortex (AI) is the representative recipient of information from the ears in the mammalian cortex. However, the delineation of the AI is still controversial in a mouse. Recently, it was reported, using optical imaging, that two distinct areas of the AI, located ventrally and dorsally, are activated by high-frequency tones, whereas only one area is activated by low-frequency ...
متن کاملIndependent tonotopy and thalamocortical projection patterns in two adjacent parts of the classical primary auditory cortex in mice
Amid recent amendment of delineation of a mouse auditory cortical map, a caudal auditory field, originally defined as the primary auditory cortex (AI), was divided into the AI and dorsomedial field (DM), based on distinct high frequency areas. A low frequency area was not previously established in the DM because responses to low frequency tones were weak in this area. This may lead to the misco...
متن کاملSpatial organization of excitatory synaptic inputs to layer 4 neurons in mouse primary auditory cortex
Layer 4 (L4) of primary auditory cortex (A1) receives a tonotopically organized projection from the medial geniculate nucleus of the thalamus. However, individual neurons in A1 respond to a wider range of sound frequencies than would be predicted by their thalamic input, which suggests the existence of cross-frequency intracortical networks. We used laser scanning photostimulation and uncaging ...
متن کاملEffect of neuregulin-1 on the auditory cortex in adult C57BL/6J mice
Objective(s): We sought to explore whether neuregulin-1(NRG1) would have a protective effect on the auditory cortices of adult C57BL/6J mice.Materials and Methods: We used RTPCR and Western blot (WB) to detect the expression of NRG1 and ERBB4 (the receptor of NRG1) in the auditory cortices of C57BL/6J mice of different ages (6–8 weeks an...
متن کاملGene expression identifies distinct ascending glutamatergic pathways to frequency-organized auditory cortex in the rat brain.
A conserved feature of sound processing across species is the presence of multiple auditory cortical fields with topographically organized responses to sound frequency. Current organizational schemes propose that the ventral division of the medial geniculate body (MGBv) is a single functionally homogenous structure that provides the primary source of input to all neighboring frequency-organized...
