The intrinsic connections between and within these areas have not been well defined. Wickesberg et al.2 revealed that projections from DCN to AVCN in the mouse are frequency specific and tonotopic. In contrast Synder and Leake in the cat revealed projections from AVCN to PVCN and DCN but only modest projections from PVCN and DCN to AVCN with no frequency specificity observed. These previous studies utilized the retrograde tracer horseradish peroxidase. We investigated this apparent contradiction further, using neurobiotin, a retrograde and anterograde tracer, to examine connections within the cochlear nucleus of the rat, with emphasis on the AVCN subdivision.
