In rodents, CGRP is also immunocolocalized in the myelinated medial OC system, which contacts cochlear outer hair cells (OHCs). To understand the role(s) of this neuropeptide in the OC system, we characterized the auditory phenotype of \u03b1CGRP-null mice. Cochlear threshold sensitivity was normal in mutant mice, both via a neural metric, the auditory brain stem response (ABR), and an OHC-based metric, distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs). Medial OC function and resistance to acoustic injury were also unaffected by \u03b1CGRP deletion: the former was assessed by measuring cochlear response suppression with electrical stimulation of the OC bundle, the latter by measuring temporary threshold shifts after exposure to high level sound. However, significant abnormality in \u03b1CGRP-null mice was seen in the growth of cochlear neural responses with increasing stimulus level. This observation, contrasted with normal amplitude-versus-level functions for DPOAEs, is consistent with a selective, postsynaptic effect on cochlear neurons via \u03b1CGRP release from lateral OC terminals. This constitutes the most direct evidence to date for a functional role of the lateral OC system in the auditory periphery. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1152\/jn.00596.2003","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,5,31]],"date-time":"2006-05-31T06:01:10Z","timestamp":1149055270000},"page":"2941-2949","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":64,"title":["Loss of \u03b1CGRP Reduces Sound-Evoked Activity in the Cochlear Nerve"],"prefix":"10.1152","volume":"90","author":[{"given":"St\u00e9phane F.","family":"Maison","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otology and Laryngology, Harvard Medical School and Eaton-Peabody Laboratory, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Boston, Massachusetts 02114"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ronald B.","family":"Emeson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacology and Department of Molecular Physiology and Biophysics, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, Tennessee 37232"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joe C.","family":"Adams","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otology and Laryngology, Harvard Medical School and Eaton-Peabody Laboratory, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Boston, Massachusetts 02114"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anne E.","family":"Luebke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology and Neuroscience Program, University of Miami School of Medicine, Miami, Florida 33136"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.
