Modeling cochlear micromechanics: hypotheses and models
Journal of Bio-X Research, 2019 . The cochlea plays an important role in the mammalian auditory system. Sound-induced cell motion in the cochlea is transformed into electrical signals that are then sent to primary auditory neurons.

Microstructural interactions contribute to the hotspot in the living cochlea
Current Research in Neurobiology, 2022 The mechanism of the active cochlea relies on a complex interaction between microstructures in the organ of Corti. A significant longitudinal vibration “hotspot” was recently observed in the high-frequency region of the living gerbil cochlea between the ...

Drug Delivery, 2021 The cochlea’s inaccessibility and complex nature provide significant challenges to delivering drugs and other agents uniformly, safely and efficiently, along the entire cochlear spiral. Large drug concentration gradients are formed along the cochlea when

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021 Optogenetic stimulation of type I spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) promises an alternative to the electrical stimulation by current cochlear implants (CIs) for improved hearing restoration by future optical CIs (oCIs).

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020 In the past, most inner ear diseases were thought to start with the impairment of the sensory epithelium of the cochlea before subsequently progressing to secondary neural degeneration.

Analysis of a Dynamic Response of the Cochlea Using Fluid-Structure Interaction Model
Engineering Transactions, 2016 A one-dimensional (1D) model of the cochlea of the inner ear has been built and validated against the previously built three-dimensional (3D) fluid-structure interaction (FSI) model of the cochlea.

Analysis of Pharmacokinetics in the Cochlea of the Inner Ear
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 Hearing loss affects >5% of the global population and therefore, has a great social and clinical impact. Sensorineural hearing loss, which can be caused by different factors, such as acoustic trauma, aging, and administration of certain classes of ...

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.
