An anatomical and physiological study of regeneration of the eighth nerve in the leopard frog

Abstract

The ability of auditory fibers in the anuran's VIIIth nerve to regenerate back into the central nervous system after their axons have been served was studied electrophysiologically and anatomically. Single unit recordings in the regenerated portion of the nerve indicate that: (1) fibers from both the amphibian and basilar papillae regenerate; (2) tuning curves of regenerated fibers, as in normal fibers, are 'V' shaped and retain their sharp frequency selectivity; (3) latency and threshold measurements of regenerated fibers are similar to values obtained in intact nerves. Filling the posterior branch of the regenerated VIIIth nerve with horseradish peroxidase indicates that fibers in this branch remain together within the nerve during regeneration and succeed in terminating in their correct target nuclei and no others.
