Representation of species-specific vocalizations in the medial geniculate body of the guinea pig

Original language description

Individual nuclei of the auditory pathway contribute in a specific way to the processing of complex acoustical signals. We investigated the responses of single neurons to typical guinea pig vocalizations (purr, chutter, chirp and whistle) in the ventralpart of the medial geniculate body (MGB) of anesthetized guinea pigs. The neuronal and population peristimulus time histograms (PSTHs) reflected the repetition frequency of individual phrases in the calls. The patterns of PSTHs correlated well with the sound temporal envelope in calls with short phrases (purr, chirp). The dominant onset character of the neuronal responses resulted in a lower correlation between the sound envelope and the PSTH pattern in the case of longer calls (chutter and whistle). Atime-reversed version of whistle elicited on average a 13% weaker response than did the natural whistle. The rate-characteristic frequency (CF) profile provided only a coarse representation of the sound frequency spectrum without detailed
