“…Most importantly, in these animals, the cochlea has been completely removed, so there is no contribution from the cochlear microphonic. The recent paper ( 57 ) gives the evidence that the vestibular microphonic is a field potential due to otolithic receptor hair cell activation—reporting all the correct controls—such as chemically silencing afferent neurons and showing that the vestibular microphonic remains, and conversely chemically silencing the receptors and showing that the vestibular microphonic disappears, leading to the conclusion that the vestibular microphonic is a field potential generated by otolithic hair cells (utricular hair cells in this case) (Figure 5 ). The vestibular microphonic (strictly the utricular microphonic) has been recorded up to frequencies of 3,000 Hz.…”

“…How can such an apparently sluggish system as the otoliths with such dense otoconia exhibit phase locking to stimulus frequencies of thousands of Hertz? One answer comes from recording the vestibular microphonic, which shows that mammalian utricular receptors are activated at such high frequencies ( 57 , 58 ). The vestibular microphonic is a field potential to sound or vibration and is a direct electrophysiological indicator of otolithic receptor hair cell function.…”

“…Experimental evidence for the "seismometer" mode of otolith organs derives from a sophisticated guinea pig model showing that application of sound or vibration to the guinea pig's skull resulted in periodic oscillations of the utricular macula and de-/repolarizations of the utricular hair cells in sync with the stimulus frequency up to several kHz (for details see S3 [online supplementary material] and [65,66]).…”
