Abstract: | Neural interaction in the primary auditory cortex of guinea pigs anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital was studied using a single line multi-electrode (4 x 1) aligned across and along the isofrequency band. Under the spontaneous condition, the neural interaction was isotropic; the amplitude of cross-correlogram peaks decreased as the electrode separation increased both across and along the isofrequency band. Under tone stimulation, the neural interaction was anisotropic; the amplitude of peaks was decreased rapidly beyond 400 microm across the isofrequency band, while it decreased little up to 700 microm along the isofrequency band. This anisotropic interaction was dependent on the stimulus intensity. |
