Nelson's notch in the rate-level functions of auditory-nerve fibers might be caused by PIEZO2-mediated reverse-polarity currents in hair cells
{{output}}
Half a century ago, Nelson Kiang and colleagues observed that some spike rate versus stimulus level functions of auditory-nerve-fiber responses to tones are nonmonotonic, exhibiting a sharp notch ("Nelson's notch") at high stimulus levels. The notch is associa... ...
