We made small injections of horseradish peroxidase into the medial superior olivary nucleus (MSO) of gerbils in order to examine the sources of input into that nucleus. As previously described, the MSO receives inputs from neurons in the rostral part of both anteroventral cochlear nuclei. In addition, we found evidence for a projection from the ipsilateral lateral nucleus of the trapezoid body (LNTB). Our results are also compatible with previous reports that the medical nucleus of the trapezoid body (NMTB) projects to the MSO. It is likely that these projections into the MSO from the LNTB and MNTB are sources of inhibitory synaptic inputs.
为了研究沙鼠内侧上橄榄核（MSO）的输入来源，我们向其注射了微量辣根过氧化物酶。如先前所述，MSO接收来自双侧前腹侧耳蜗核头部神经元的输入。此外，我们发现了来自同侧梯形体外侧核（LNTB）投射的证据。我们的结果也与先前关于梯形体内侧核（NMTB）投射到MSO的报道一致。很可能来自LNTB和MNTB向MSO的这些投射是抑制性突触输入的来源。
