  1. 1. The functional role of the lateral olivocochlear system and mechanisms underlying sound condtioning

    Sammanfattning : Sound conditioning is a process induced by a low-level, non-damaging acoustic stimulus that provides protection against subsequent detrimental forms of acoustic trauma. Many hypotheses have been advanced to explain the effect of sound conditioning, but the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon are still not yet known. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Cellular correlates of sensory processing in the mammalian audio-vestibular brainstem

    Författare :Sara Leijon; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Efferent projections to the vestibular inner ear organs have remained elusive. To shed light on their physiological role, a first investigation of the vestibular efferent (VE) neurons in the brainstem was undertaken by using a transgenic mouse which expresses a fluorescent marker in the VE neurons.
