Repeated Inertial Stimulation Reveals Divergent Plasticity in Peripheral and Central Vestibular Pathways

Syed Danial Naqvi, Mamiko Niwa, Rod D. Braun, Mirabela Hali, Aaron K. Apawu, Avril Genene Holt

This study investigates how different jerk characteristics affect peripheral and central vestibular pathways in rats, revealing distinct plasticity patterns in their responses to mechanical vestibular load.

Stimulation of otolith irregular fibers produces a rostro-caudal gradient in activity in the vestibular nuclear complex (VNC), but not the vestibulocerebellum (VeCb)

Avril Genene Holt, Shana King, Syed Danial Naqvi, Rod D. Braun, David S. Bauer, Marie D. Anderson, William Michael King

This study maps neuronal activity in the vestibular nuclear complex and vestibulocerebellum after otolith irregular fiber stimulation, showing a rostro-caudal gradient in the VNC but not the VeCb.

L-type calcium channel blockade with verapamil prevents noise induced neuronal dyssynchrony

Selin Yalcinoglu, Rod D. Braun, Ammaar Wattoo, Aaron K. Apawu, Rasheed Alrayashi, Avril Genene Holt

This study shows that verapamil prevents noise-induced decreases in auditory brainstem response amplitudes but does not block noise-induced hyperactivity in the inferior colliculus.

Using Manganese Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MEMRI) to Assess Calcium Dependent Activity in Vestibular Pathways Following Linear Acceleration

Danial Naqvi, Rod D. Braun, Antonela Muca, Mirabela Hali, Avril Genene Holt

This study uses MEMRI to assess calcium-dependent activity in vestibular pathways of rats after linear acceleration, showing differential Mn2+ uptake in specific brain regions.
