Steady-state centrifugal input via the lateral olfactory tract modulates spontaneous activity in the rat main olfactory bulb

Highlights • Topical lidocaine application selectively inhibits tonic action potential conduction in the lateral olfactory tract (LOT). • The rate of spontaneous activity of glomerular layer units and mitral cell units was significantly dampened by LOT block. • Tonic inhibitory and excitatory drive...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Topical lidocaine application selectively inhibits tonic action potential conduction in the lateral olfactory tract (LOT). • The rate of spontaneous activity of glomerular layer units and mitral cell units was significantly dampened by LOT block. • Tonic inhibitory and excitatory drive to the MOB via the LOT dynamically shape the spontaneous activity of MOB neurons.
