Abstract excerpt
Neuro-anatomical studies in the mammalian cochlea have previously identified a subpopulation of approximately 5 % of primary auditory neurones, designated type II spiral ganglion neurones (sgnII). These neurones project to outer hair cells and their supporting cells, within the 'cochlear amplifier' region. Physiological characterization of sgnII has proven elusive. Whole-cell patch clamp of spiral ganglion...
