小鼠下丘神经元对不同调制范围的调频声的扫频方向选择性
Effect of frequency-modulated sound with different modulation ranges on sweep-directional selectivity of inferior collicular neurons in mouse
摘要
Abstract
Under free field sound stimulation condition, frequency-modulated (FM) sound of fixed amplitude and duration with 5 modulation ranges (MR), 2,4,8,16, and 32 kHz, were used in this experiment. The sweep-directional selectivity of the neurons to FM sounds and effect of MR on the sweep-directional selectivity were examined. 45 (44. 1%) neurons had sweep-directional selectivity to FM sound and remaining 57 (55.9 %) neurons did not have sweep-directional selectivity among 102 neurons obtained in this experiment. The number of neurons with sweep-directional selectivity increased with MR increasing from 2 to 16 kHz, but number of neurons with sweep-directional selectivity decreased at MR of 32 kHz, and their half-band widths at 10 dB above minimum threshold (MT) appeared an asymmetry between high and low frequency sides.Half-band widths of these neurons at MR of 32 kHz were more asymmetrical and their sweep-directional selectivity was more remarkable. The result demonstrated that asymmetry of half-band width could affect sweep-directional selectivity of the neurons to FM sound and perhaps explain why neurons still had sweep-directional selectivity when they were stimulated by MR of FM sound within band width at 10 dB above MT.关键词
