Spike Discharge Patterns of Spontaneous and Continuously Stimulated Activity in the Cochlear Nucleus of Anesthetized Cats

Spike Discharge Patterns of Spontaneous and Continuously Stimulated Activity in the Cochlear Nucleus of Anesthetized Cats

R R Pfeiffer et al. Biophys J. 1965 May.

Abstract

Interspike interval histograms of spontaneous and stimulated activity were computed from spike discharges of single units in the cochlear nucleus. These histograms indicate that a number of different types of spontaneous discharge patterns exist in the nucleus. The type of spontaneous activity of a given unit is related to its activity in response to continuous tones. Correlations were found between the discharge patterns of units and their anatomical locations within the nucleus.
