In a rat model of reflex epilepsy, sound-induced or audiogenic seizures (AGS) are initiated by and propagated though excessive activity of inferior colliculus neurons. Because more auditory system neurons respond to onset of sound rather than a continuing sound, we examined the effect of sudden (SO)...
