Summary schematic depicting effects of systemic nicotine on RFs in the auditory lemniscal pathway. Nicotine narrows RFs in ICc and MGv, increases gain in the thalamocortical (TC) pathway, and both narrows RFs and increases gain in A1. Nicotine effects integrate to produce the RF changes observed in A1.
