Otosclerosis under microCT: New insights into the disease and its anatomy
PurposeOtospongiotic plaques can be seen on conventional computed tomography (CT) as focal lesions around the cochlea. However, the resolution remains insufficient to enable evaluation of intracochlear damage.

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

Insertion Guidance Based on Impedance Measurements of a Cochlear Electrode Array
The cochlear implantable neuromodulator provides substantial auditory perception to those with severe or profound impaired hearing. Correct electrode array positioning in the cochlea is one of the important factors for quality hearing, and misplacement ...

Patterning of the mammalian cochlea [PDF]
The mammalian cochlea is sophisticated in its function and highly organized in its structure. Although the anatomy of this sense organ has been well documented, the molecular mechanisms underlying its development have remained elusive. Information generated from mutant and knockout mice in recent years has increased our understanding ...

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

Vibration hotspots reveal longitudinal funneling of sound-evoked motion in the mammalian cochlea
The micromechanical mechanisms that underpin tuning and dynamic range compression in the mammalian inner ear are fundamental to hearing, but poorly understood.

Alternative splicing in shaping the molecular landscape of the cochlea
The cochlea is a complex organ comprising diverse cell types with highly specialized morphology and function. Until now, the molecular underpinnings of its specializations have mostly been studied from a transcriptional perspective, but accumulating ...
