The Mechanism of the Cochlea [PDF]
Nature, 1922 IF I understand Dr. Perrett's letter in NATURE of November 11, p. 633, his objection to Yoshii's experiments (which would apply equally to those of Wittmaack and Siebenmann) is based on the assumption that the intensity of the stimulation of every part of the cochlea must be proportional to the amplitude of the vibration set up in that part.

Development of the cochlea [PDF]
Development, 2020 The cochlea, a coiled structure located in the ventral region of the inner ear, acts as the primary structure for the perception of sound. Along the length of the cochlear spiral is the organ of Corti, a highly derived and rigorously patterned sensory ...

Mechanics of the mammalian cochlea. [PDF]
Physiological Reviews, 2001 In mammals, environmental sounds stimulate the auditory receptor, the cochlea, via vibrations of the stapes, the innermost of the middle ear ossicles.

Age-Related Changes in Immune Cells of the Human Cochlea
Frontiers in Neurology, 2019 Age-related hearing loss is a chronic degenerative disorder affecting one in two individuals above the age of 75. Current population projections predict a steady climb in the number of older individuals making the search for interventions to prevent or ...

Meniere's disease: Structural considerations in early cochlea hydrops [PDF]
Laryngoscope Investigative OtolaryngologyObjective Structural features of the human cochlea may control early lesion formation in endolymphatic hydrops. This process may hinge on three structural features: the flattened spiral shape of the human cochlea, the toroidal configuration of the ...

Deafness gene expression patterns in the mouse cochlea found by microarray analysis.
PLoS ONE, 2014 BackgroundTonotopy is one of the most fundamental principles of auditory function. While gradients in various morphological and physiological characteristics of the cochlea have been reported, little information is available on gradient patterns of gene ...

Scientific Reports, 2021 The human cochlea transforms sound waves into electrical signals in the acoustic nerve fibers with high acuity. This transformation occurs via vibrating anisotropic membranes (basilar and tectorial membranes) and frequency-specific hair cell receptors ...

Macrophages in the cochlea; an immunological link between risk factors and progressive hearing loss
Glia, 2021 Macrophages are abundant in the cochlea; however, their role in hearing loss is not well understood. Insults to the cochlea, such as noise or insertion of a cochlear implant, cause an inflammatory response, which includes activation of tissue‐resident ...

Application of Curved MPR Algorithm to High Resolution 3 Dimensional T2 Weighted CISS Images for Virtual Uncoiling of Membranous Cochlea as an Aid for Cochlear Morphometry [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017 Introduction: With the use of various surgical techniques, types of implants, the preoperative assessment of cochlear dimensions is becoming increasingly relevant prior to cochlear implantation.
