Audiogenic seizures are convulsions brought about by prolonged exposure to high frequency sound ^[1], particularly in small mammals such as rodents and rabbits.

Genetic factorsEdit

Audiogenic mice are knockout mice used in the study of seizures.

• Chromosome 5 (human)
• GIPC3
• GPR98

ManagementEdit

• Ethanolamine-O-sulfate^[2]
• DMT

See alsoEdit

• Auditory stimulation
• Noise effects
