Hyperpolarization-activated cation channels confer tonotopic specialization for temporal encoding of sound frequency in the cochlear nucleus

Kwame Owusu-Nyantakyi, Lashaka Sierra Hamlette, Go Ashida, Sonia R. Weimann, Stefan N. Oline, R. Michael Burger

The paper identifies a tonotopic gradient of hyperpolarization-activated cation channels (IH) in the nucleus magnocellularis that enhances temporal encoding of sound frequency.
