The LIM homeodomain transcription factor ISL1 is essential for the different aspects of neuronal development and maintenance. In order to study the role of ISL1 in the auditory system, we generated a transgenic mouse () expressing under the promoter control. We previously reported a progressive age-related decline in hearing and abnormalities in the inner ear, medial olivocochlear system, and auditory midbrain of these mice.

The ability to sense occasionally occurring sounds in an environment is critical for animals. To understand this ability, we studied responses to acoustic oddball paradigms in the rat's midbrain auditory neurons. An oddball paradigm is a random sequence of stimuli created using two tone bursts, with one presented at a high probability (standard stimulus) and the other at a low probability (oddball stimulus).

The perception of a sound can be influenced by another sound in a space-dependent manner. An understanding of this perceptual phenomenon depends on knowledge about how the spatial relationship between two sounds affects neural responses to the sounds. We used the rat as a model system and equal-probability two-tone sequences as stimuli to evaluate how spatial separation between two asynchronously recurring sounds affected responses to the sounds in midbrain auditory neurons.

Evoked local field potentials in response to contralaterally presented tone bursts were recorded from the rat's dorsal cortex of the inferior colliculus (ICd). An oddball stimulus paradigm was used to study the sensitivity of ensembles of neurons in the ICd to novel sounds. Our recordings indicate that neuron ensembles in the ICd display stimulus-specific adaptation when a large contrast in both frequency and probability of occurrence exists between the two tone bursts used for generating an oddball paradigm.
