A computational model for the modulation of the prepulseinhibition of the acoustic startle reflex
(Springer, 2012)
The acoustic startle reflex (ASR), a defensiveresponse, is a contraction of the skeletal and facial musclesin response to an abrupt, intense (>80 db) auditory stimu-lus, which has been extensively studied in rats and ...
Direct and indirect connections between cochlear root neurons and facial motor neurons: Pathways underlying the acoustic pinna reflex in the albino rat
(2008-04-10)
Cochlear root neurons (CRNs) are involved in the acoustic startle reflex, which is widely used in behavioral models of sensorimotor integration. A short-latency component of this reflex, the auricular reflex, promotes pinna ...

Selective involvement of GABAergic mechanisms of the dorsal periaqueductal gray and inferior colliculus on the memory of the contextual fear as assessed by the fear potentiated startle test
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2008)
The inferior colliculus (IC) together with the dorsal periaqueductal gray (dPAG), the amygdala and the medial hypothalamus make part of the brain aversion system, which has mainly been related to the organization of ...
A novel exaggerated "Spino-bulbo-spinal like" reflex of lower brainstem origin
(2019)
Background: Many different oligosynaptic reflexes are known to
originate in the lower brainstem which share phenomenological and
neurophysiological similarities.
Objective: To evaluate and discuss the differences and ...
The noradrenergic projection from the locus coeruleus to the cochlear root neurons in rats
(Springer, 2015-05-01)
The cochlear root neurons (CRNs) are key components of the primary acoustic startle circuit; mediating auditory alert and escape behaviors in rats. They receive a great variety of inputs which serve to elicit and modulate ...
Effects of microinjections of apomorphine and haloperidol into the inferior colliculus on prepulse inhibition of the acoustic startle reflex in rat
(Elsevier B.V., 2012-02-10)
Prepulse inhibition (PPI) is the reduction in the startle response caused by a low intensity non-startling stimulus (prepulse) which is presented shortly before the startle stimulus and is an operational measure of ...
