A gain-of-function mutation in the α9 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor alters medial olivocochlear efferent short-term synaptic plasticity
Gain control of the auditory system operates at multiple levels. Cholinergic medial olivocochlear (MOC) fibers originate in the brainstem and make synaptic contacts at the base of the outer hair cells (OHCs), the final targets of several feedback loops from the periphery and higher-processing center...

Gain control of the auditory system operates at multiple levels. Cholinergic medial olivocochlear (MOC) fibers originate in the brainstem and make synaptic contacts at the base of the outer hair cells (OHCs), the final targets of several feedback loops from the periphery and higher-processing centers. Efferent activation inhibitsOHCactive amplification within the mammalian cochlea, through the activation of a calcium-permeable α 9 α 10 ionotropic cholinergic nicotinic receptor (nAChR), functionally coupled to calcium activated SK2 potassium channels. Correct operation of this feedback requires careful matching of acoustic input with the strength of cochlear inhibition (Galambos, 1956; Wiederhold and Kiang, 1970; Gifford and Guinan, 1987), which is driven by the rate of MOCactivity and short-term facilitation at theMOC-OHCsynapse (Ballestero et al., 2011; Katz and Elgoyhen, 2014).
