Sensory processing at ribbon synapses in the retina and the cochlea.

open access: yesPhysiological Reviews, 2019
In recent years, sensory neuroscientists have made major efforts to dissect the structure and function of ribbon synapses which process sensory information in the eye and ear.

Regenerative Effect of a ROCK Inhibitor, Y-27632, on Excitotoxic Trauma in an Organotypic Culture of the Cochlea

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Mitochondrial Damage and Necroptosis in Aging Cochlea

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is an irreversible, progressive neurodegenerative disorder and is presently untreatable. Previous studies using animal models have suggested mitochondrial damage and programmed cell death to be involved with ARHL. Thus, we

An analog electronic cochlea [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 1988
An analog electronic cochlea has been built in CMOS VLSI technology using micropower techniques. The key point of the model and circuit is that a cascade of simple, nearly linear, second-order filter stages with controllable Q parameters suffices to capture the physics of the fluid-dynamic traveling-wave system in the cochlea, including the effects of ...

Analysis of Pharmacokinetics in the Cochlea of the Inner Ear

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Expression and localization of α2A-adrenergic receptor in the rat post-natal developing cochlea

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2023
Lots of adrenergic receptors (ARs) are widely present across the auditory pathways and are positioned to affect auditory and vestibular functions. However, noradrenergic regulation in the cochlea has not been well characterized.

The Active Traveling Wave in the Cochlea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A sound stimulus entering the inner ear excites a deformation of the basilar membrane which travels along the cochlea towards the apex. It is well established that this wave-like disturbance is amplified by an active system.

Hair Cell Transduction, Tuning, and Synaptic Transmission in the Mammalian Cochlea.

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, 2017
Sound pressure fluctuations striking the ear are conveyed to the cochlea, where they vibrate the basilar membrane on which sit hair cells, the mechanoreceptors of the inner ear.
