  • Title: Comparison of monaural acoustic and electric stimulation: unit types in the cat inferior colliculus.
    Author: Lithgow BJ, Clark GM.
    Journal: Ann Otol Rhinol Laryngol Suppl; 1995 Sep; 166():118-21. PubMed ID: 7668599.
    Abstract:
    This study has shown that 1) the ratio of excitatory and inhibitory inputs to units in the central nucleus of the inferior colliculus is altered when one cochlea is neomycin-deafened and/or electrically stimulated; 2) prestimulus threshold shift and lateral inhibition mechanisms can be used to explain these results; and 3) at high current levels a leakage current into the modiolus can evoke unit population responses.
