Abstract
During behavior, the motor cortex sends copies of motor-related signals to sensory cortices. It remains unclear whether these corollary discharge signals strictly encode movement or whether they also encode sensory experience and expectation. Here, we combine closed-loop behavior with large-scale physiology, projection-pattern specific recordings, and circuit perturbations to show that neurons in mouse secondary motor cortex (M2) encode sensation and are influenced by expectation. When a movement unexpectedly produces a sound, M2 becomes dominated by sound-evoked activity. Sound responses in M2 are inherited partially from the auditory cortex and are routed back to the auditory cortex, providing a path for the dynamic exchange of sensory-motor information during behavior. When the acoustic consequences of a movement become predictable, M2 responses to self-generated sounds are selectively gated off. These changes in single-cell responses are reflected in population dynamics, which are influenced by both sensation and expectation. Together, these findings reveal the rich embedding of sensory and expectation signals in motor cortical activity.

Abstract
The anterior auditory field (AAF) is a core region of the auditory cortex and plays a vital role in discrimination tasks. However, the role of the AAF corticostriatal neurons in frequency discrimination remains unclear. Here, we used c-Fos staining, fiber photometry recording, and pharmacogenetic manipulation to investigate the function of the AAF corticostriatal neurons in a frequency discrimination task. c-Fos staining and fiber photometry recording revealed that the activity of AAF pyramidal neurons was significantly elevated during the frequency discrimination task. Pharmacogenetic inhibition of AAF pyramidal neurons significantly impaired frequency discrimination. In addition, histological results revealed that AAF pyramidal neurons send strong projections to the striatum. Moreover, pharmacogenetic suppression of the striatal projections from pyramidal neurons in the AAF significantly disrupted the frequency discrimination. Collectively, our findings show that AAF pyramidal neurons, particularly the AAF-striatum projections, play a crucial role in frequency discrimination behavior.

Abstract
How the auditory system processes temporal information of sound has been investigated extensively using repeated stimuli. Recent studies on how the response of neurons in the primary auditory cortex (A1) changes with the progression of stimulus repetition, have reported response temporal profiles of two categories: "adaptation", i.e., gradual decrease, and "facilitation", i.e., gradual increase. To explore the existence of profiles of other categories and to examine the tone-frequency-dependence of the profile category in single neurons, here we studied the response of mouse A1 neurons to four or five tone-trains; each train comprised 10 identical tone pips, with 0.5-s inter-tone-intervals, and the four or five trains differed only in tone frequency. The response to each tone in a train was evaluated using the peak of the ON response, and how the peak response changed with the tone number in the train, i.e., the response temporal profile, was examined. We confirmed the existence of profiles of both "adaptation" and "facilitation" categories; "adaptation" could be further subcategorized into "slow adaptation" and "fast adaptation" profiles, with the latter being encountered more frequently. Moreover, two new categories of non-monotonic profiles were identified: an "adaptation with recovery" profile and a "facilitation followed by adaptation" profile. Examination of single neurons with trains of different tone frequencies revealed that some A1 neurons exhibited profiles of the same category to tone trains of different tone frequencies, whereas others exhibited profiles of different categories, depending on the tone frequency. These results demonstrate the variety in the response temporal profiles of mouse A1 neurons, which may benefit the encoding of individual tones in a train.

Abstract
The medial geniculate body (MGB) exhibits anatomical and physiological properties that underlie its role in the auditory system. Anatomical properties, including myelo- and cyto-architecture, are used to identify MGB subdivisions. Recently, neurochemical properties, including calcium-binding proteins, have also been employed to define the MGB subdivisions. Because these properties do not show clear boundaries in the MGB and do not involve anatomical connectivity, whether the MGB subdivisions can be defined based on anatomical and neurochemical properties remains unclear. In this study, 11 different neurochemical markers were employed for defining the MGB subdivisions. In terms of anatomical connectivity, immunoreactivities for vesicular transporter demonstrated glutamatergic, GABAergic and glycinergic afferents and provided clues about the boundaries of the MGB subdivisions. On the other hand, the distribution of novel neurochemical markers of the MGB demonstrated distinct boundaries of the MGB subdivisions and resulted in the discovery of a putative homolog of the rabbit internal division of the MGB. Additionally, corticotropin-releasing factor was expressed in the larger neurons in the medial division of the MGB (MGm), particularly in the caudal MGm. Lastly, the analysis of anatomical details by measuring the size and density of vesicular transporters revealed heterogeneity among the MGB subdivisions. Our results demonstrate that the MGB is composed of five subdivisions based on their anatomical and neurochemical properties.

Abstract
Auditory gating (AG) is an adaptive mechanism for filtering out redundant acoustic stimuli to protect the brain against information overload. AG deficits have been found in many mental illnesses, including schizophrenia (SZ). However, the neural correlates of AG remain poorly understood. Here, we found that the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) shows an intermediate level of AG in auditory thalamocortical circuits, with a laminar profile in which the strongest AG is in the granular layer. Furthermore, AG of the PPC was decreased and increased by optogenetic inactivation of the medial dorsal thalamic nucleus (MD) and auditory cortex (AC), respectively. Optogenetically activating the axons from the MD and AC drove neural activities in the PPC without an obvious AG. These results indicated that AG in the PPC is determined by the integrated signal streams from the MD and AC in a bottom-up manner. We also found that a mouse model of SZ (postnatal administration of noncompetitive N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor antagonist) presented an AG deficit in the PPC, which may be inherited from the dysfunction of MD. Together, our findings reveal a neural circuit underlying the generation of AG in the PPC and its involvement in the AG deficit of SZ.

Abstract
Offset responses in auditory processing appear after a sound terminates. They arise in neuronal circuits within the peripheral auditory system, but their role in the central auditory system remains unknown. Here, we ask what the behavioral relevance of cortical offset responses is and what circuit mechanisms drive them. At the perceptual level, our results reveal that experimentally minimizing auditory cortical offset responses decreases the mouse performance to detect sound termination, assigning a behavioral role to offset responses. By combining in vivo electrophysiology in the auditory cortex and thalamus of awake mice, we also demonstrate that cortical offset responses are not only inherited from the periphery but also amplified and generated de novo. Finally, we show that offset responses code more than silence, including relevant changes in sound trajectories. Together, our results reveal the importance of cortical offset responses in encoding sound termination and detecting changes within temporally discontinuous sounds crucial for speech and vocalization.

Abstract
Sensory cortices are defined by responses to physical stimulation in specific modalities. Recently, additional associatively induced responses have been reported for stimuli other than the main specific modality for each cortex in the human and mammalian brain. In this study, to investigate a type of consolidation, associative responses in the guinea pig cortices (auditory, visual, and somatosensory) were simultaneously measured using optical imaging after first- or second-order conditioning comprising foot shock as an aversive stimulus and tone and light as sensory stimuli. Our findings indicated that (1) after the first- and second-order conditioning, associative responses in each cortical area were additionally induced to stimulate the other specific modality; (2) an associative response to sensory conditioning with tone and light was also seen as a change in the response at the neuronal level without behavioral phenomena; and (3) when fear conditioning with light and foot shock was applied before sensory conditioning with tone and light, the associative response to foot shock in the primary visual cortex (V1) was decreased (extinction) compared with the response after the first-order fear conditioning, whereas the associative response was increased (facilitation) for fear conditioning after sensory conditioning. Our results suggest that various types of bottom-up information are consolidated as associative responses induced in the cortices, which are traced repetitively or alternatively by a change in plasticity involving facilitation and extinction in the cortical network. This information-combining process of cortical responses may play a crucial role in the dynamic linking of memory in the brain.

Abstract
Tinnitus can be described as the conscious perception of sound without external stimulation, and it is often accompanied by anxiety, depression, and insomnia. Current clinical treatments for tinnitus are ineffective. Although recent studies have indicated that the caudate-putamen nucleus may be a sensory gating area involved in noise elimination in tinnitus, the underlying mechanisms of this disorder are yet to be determined. To investigate the potential role of the caudate-putamen nucleus in experimentally induced tinnitus, we created a rat model of tinnitus induced by intraperitoneal administration of 350 mg/kg sodium salicylate. Our results revealed that the mean spontaneous firing rate of the caudate-putamen nucleus was increased by sodium salicylate treatment, while dopamine levels were decreased. In addition, electrical stimulation of the caudate-putamen nucleus markedly reduced the spontaneous firing rate of neurons in the primary auditory cortex. These findings suggest that the caudate-putamen nucleus plays a sensory gating role in sodium salicylate-induced tinnitus. This study was approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of Peking University Health Science Center (approval No. A2010031) on December 6, 2017.

Abstract
Medial secondary motor cortex (MOs or M2) constitutes the dorsal aspect of the rodent medial frontal cortex. We previously proposed that the function of MOs is to link antecedent conditions, including sensory stimuli and prior choices, to impending actions. In this review, we focus on the long-range pathways between MOs and other cortical and subcortical regions. We highlight three circuits: (1) connections with visual and auditory cortices that are essential for predictive coding of perceptual inputs; (2) connections with motor cortex and brainstem that are responsible for top-down, context-dependent modulation of movements; (3) connections with retrosplenial cortex, orbitofrontal cortex, and basal ganglia that facilitate reward-based learning. Together, these long-range circuits allow MOs to broadcast choice signals for feedback and to bias decision-making processes.

Abstract
The core region of the rodent auditory cortex has two subfields: the primary auditory area (A1) and the anterior auditory field (AAF). Although the postnatal development of A1 has been studied in several mammalian species, few studies have been conducted on the postnatal development of AAF. Using a voltage-sensitive-dye-based imaging method, we examined and compared the postnatal development of AAF and A1 in mice from postnatal day 11 (P11) to P40. We focused on the postnatal development of tonotopy, the relative position between A1 and AAF, and the properties of tone-evoked responses in the subfields. Tone-evoked responses in the mouse auditory cortex were first observed at P12, and tonotopy was found in both A1 and AAF at this age. Quantification of tonotopy using the cortical magnification factor (CMF; octave difference per unit cortical distance) revealed a rapid change from P12 to P14 in both A1 and AAF, and a stable level from P14. A similar time course of postnatal development was found for the distance between the 4 kHz site in A1 and AAF, the distance between the 16 kHz site in A1 and AAF, and the angle between the frequency axis of A1 and AAF. The maximum amplitude and rise time of tone-evoked signals in both A1 and AAF showed no significant change from P12 to P40, but the latency of the responses to both the 4 kHz and 16 kHz tones decreased during this period, with a more rapid decrease in the latency to 16 kHz tones in both subfields. The duration of responses evoked by 4 kHz tones in both A1 and AAF showed no significant postnatal change, but the duration of responses to 16 kHz tones decreased exponentially in both subfields. The cortical area activated by 4 kHz tones in AAF was always larger than that in A1 at all ages (P12-P40). Our results demonstrated that A1 and AAF developed in parallel postnatally, showing a rapid maturation of tonotopy, slow maturation of response latency and response duration, and a dorsal-to-ventral order (high-frequency site to low-frequency site) of functional maturation.
