Patient‐Derived Fibroblasts as a Clinically Relevant Model of Kearns–Sayre Syndrome
Objective Kearns–Sayre syndrome (KSS) is characterized by single large‐scale mitochondrial DNA deletions and by severe early‐onset clinical manifestations with neurological involvement. Reliable disease models, as well as validated biomarkers or effective treatments, are lacking.

Age-related hearing loss or presbycusis is hearing loss that progressively worsens with age. With the expected increase in the number of elderly in the United States, the problem is anticipated to be increasingly common, and the impact widely felt in coming years. This article discusses the causes and mechanisms of this type of hearing loss and current

The role of cochlea extracellular matrix in age related hearing loss
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is a common condition among the elderly. Extracellular matrix (ECM) is an important cell-free structure of the body consisting of proteins such as collagen, proteoglycans and glycoproteins.

Objective Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchored proteins play critical roles in nervous system function. Pathogenic variants in genes involved in GPI‐anchor biosynthesis cause early‐onset multisystem disorders known as inherited GPI deficiencies. We describe a novel neuromuscular phenotype associated with PIGB deficiency.

Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Loss of Cisd2 Exacerbates the Progression of Age-Related Hearing Loss
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is a disease that impacts human quality of life and contributes to the progression of other neuronal problems. Various stressors induce an increase in free radicals, destroy mitochondria to further contribute to cellular malfunction, and compromise cell viability, ultimately leading to functional decline. Cisd2, a master

Abstract Nineteenth century excavations of the Ciply‐Malogne Phosphatic Chalk Formation in Hainaut, Belgium, yielded over 50 partial mosasaur skeletons, the majority of which were referred to the species Mosasaurus lemonnieri Dollo, 1889. In the years since, this taxon has experienced a complicated taxonomic history, and its exceptional hypodigm has ...
