Abstract

Intracochlear injections of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were used to map eighth nerve fiber projections from the cochlea to cochlear nucleus complex. Projection patterns revealed by HRP were identical to those previously demonstrated by intracochlear injections of tritiated amino acids known to be axoplasmic transport-dependent. These findings provide evidence in the auditory system for anterograde or transganglionic transport of HRP demonstrated for other sensory neurons.
