Design and Modelling of MEMS Resonators for an Artificial Basilar Membrane [PDF]
Engineering Proceedings, 2023 The human cochlea is undeniably one of the most amazing organs in the body. One of its most intriguing features is its unique capability to convert sound waves into electrical nerve impulses. Humans can generally perceive frequencies between 20 Hz and 20

Emilin 2 promotes the mechanical gradient of the cochlear basilar membrane and resolution of frequencies in sound. [PDF]
Sci Adv, 2020 A protein in the cochlear basilar membrane promotes frequency-specific mechanical responses and auditory frequency resolution. The detection of different frequencies in sound is accomplished with remarkable precision by the basilar membrane (BM), an ...

Development and Characterization of a Biomimetic Totally Implantable Artificial Basilar Membrane System [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 Cochlear implants (CIs) have become the standard treatment for severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss. Conventional CIs have some challenges, such as the use of extracorporeal devices, and high power consumption for frequency analysis. To overcome

MiR-29a-deficiency causes thickening of the basilar membrane and age-related hearing loss by upregulating collagen IV and laminin [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023 Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is the most common sensory degenerative disease and can significantly impact the quality of life in elderly people. A previous study using GeneChip miRNA microarray assays showed that the expression of miR-29a changes with

Longitudinal Coupling in the Basilar Membrane [PDF]
Journal of the Association for Research in Otolaryngology, 2001 A systematic and detailed study of the longitudinal coupling exhibited by the basilar membrane (BM) was performed in the excised gerbil cochlea. Contrary to the notion that the adjacent regions of the BM are decoupled from each other, the data indicate that: (a) the BM exhibits longitudinal coupling; (b) the length of the coupled region increases from ...

Models for Approximating Basilar Membrane Displacement [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1960 Three analytical models are developed for estimating the displacement of the basilar membrane in the human ear when the sound pressure at the eardrum is known. Frequency-domain data, derived experimentally by Bekesy, are Fourier transformed to examine the impulse response of the membrane.
