Electrically evoked auditory brainstem response in peripherally myelin-deficient mice

R Zhou, PJ Abbas, JG Assouline - Hearing research, 1995 - Elsevier
The integrity of the myelin sheath is important for normal electrophysiological function and
survival of neurons that make up the auditory nerve. It is hypothesized that myelin deficiency
of the auditory nerve may change the electrophysiologic characteristics of the auditory
system, especially the temporal properties. In this study, the electrically evoked auditory
brainstem response (EABR) was systematically evaluated in TrJ and Po-DT-A mice. Both of
these mice have a deficit of their peripheral myelin. Correlation between the EABR and …
