Effect of Electromagnetic Fields from Mobile Phones on the Hearing System: A Narrative Review [PDF]

open access: yesṬibb-i Tavānbakhshī, 2021
Background and Aims: Mobile phone use has increased in recent years and there is more than 1.6 billion users worldwide. This has increased speculations about the potential dangers of high-frequency Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) on health.

Age-Related Deficits in Electrophysiological and Behavioral Measures of Binaural Temporal Processing

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Binaural processing, particularly the processing of interaural phase differences, is important for sound localization and speech understanding in background noise. Age has been shown to impact the neural encoding and perception of these binaural temporal

Functional changes in the auditory cortex and associated regions caused by different acoustic stimuli in patients with presbycusis and tinnitus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Presbycusis and tinnitus are the two most common hearing related pathologies. Although both of these conditions presumably originate in the inner ear, there are several reports concerning their central components.

Adenosine and the Auditory System [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Neuropharmacology, 2009
Adenosine is a signalling molecule that modulates cellular activity in the central nervous system and peripheral organs via four G protein-coupled receptors designated A(1), A(2A), A(2B), and A(3). This review surveys the literature on the role of adenosine in auditory function, particularly cochlear function and its protection from oxidative stress ...

Dopamine in Auditory Nuclei and Lemniscal Projections is Poised to Influence Acoustic Integration in the Inferior Colliculus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021
Dopamine (DA) modulates the activity of nuclei within the ascending and descending auditory pathway. Previous studies have identified neurons and fibers in the inferior colliculus (IC) which are positively labeled for tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), a key ...

The Cl--channel TMEM16A is involved in the generation of cochlear Ca2+ waves and promotes the refinement of auditory brainstem networks in mice

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Before hearing onset (postnatal day 12 in mice), inner hair cells (IHCs) spontaneously fire action potentials, thereby driving pre-sensory activity in the ascending auditory pathway.

Bilirubin and the Auditory System [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Perinatology, 2001
The auditory system is highly sensitive to bilirubin toxicity. Damage to the auditory nervous system includes auditory neuropathy or auditory dyssynchrony and auditory processing problems which may occur with or without deafness, hearing loss. Auditory dysfunction may occur in children with or without other signs of classical kernicterus.

Cochlear Inflammaging in Relation to Ion Channels and Mitochondrial Functions

open access: yesCells, 2021
The slow accumulation of inflammatory biomarker levels in the body—also known as inflammaging—has been linked to a myriad of age-related diseases. Some of these include neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, obesity, type II diabetes ...

Early Deletion of Neurod1 Alters Neuronal Lineage Potential and Diminishes Neurogenesis in the Inner Ear

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Neuronal development in the inner ear is initiated by expression of the proneural basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) transcription factor Neurogenin1 that specifies neuronal precursors in the otocyst.

The Kinocilia of Cochlear Hair Cells: Structures, Functions, and Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Primary cilia are evolutionarily conserved and highly specialized organelles that protrude from cell membranes. Mutations in genes encoding ciliary proteins can cause structural and functional ciliary defects and consequently multiple diseases ...
