Audiological Characteristics in Vestibular Schwannoma Patients

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Vestibular schwannoma (VS) is a benign tumor that originates from the Schwann cells of the vestibular nerve sheath in the internal auditory canal. This retrospective study collected data from patients with VS who underwent surgical treatment to identify their demographic characteristics and audiometric features.

Polarity sensitivity to symmetric, biphasic monopolar pulses is not a reliable indicator of peripheral axonal degeneration in human cochlear implant users

open access: yesFrontiers in Audiology and Otology
This study aimed to determine whether the effect of changing stimulus polarity on the electrically evoked compound action potential (eCAP) threshold—referred to as the polarity effect—could be used to assess the degeneration of the peripheral axon of the

Decoding Dual Regulatory Layers: Integrating Differential Expression and Alternative Splicing Dynamics in the Evolution of Laryngeal Echolocation Across Chiropteran Lineages

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We integrated short‐read and long‐read RNA‐seq data from cochlear tissues of echolocating and non‐echolocating bats to disentangle transcriptional and post‐transcriptional regulation. Echolocating bats showed neural‐function enrichment among differentially expressed genes, while alternatively spliced genes were linked to epigenetic regulation. Overlaps

Sensory hyperacusis as a predictor of anxiety in adolescence

open access: yesJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background An increasing number of children report anxiety in early to mid‐adolescence. Early identification of risk during the transition from primary to secondary schools (age 11) could enhance family‐ or school‐based interventions. While known predictors of adolescent anxiety provide some insight, there is a need to identify and understand ...

Molecular insights into electroreceptor ribbon synapses from differential gene expression in sturgeon lateral line organs

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The expression of various genes involved in synapse development, stability and/or function was studied in developing mechanosensory neuromasts and electrosensory ampullary organs in sterlet sturgeon. Most were shared, including Slc17a8, Slc1a3 and Nrxn3, but Cbln18 was neuromast‐restricted and Tulp1 was ampullary organ‐restricted.

Exercise prehabilitation for brain health and sensory–cognitive function: Mechanistic insights into brain–body interactions

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This mini review article presents a novel hypothesis for extending exercise prehabilitation into the domains of brain health and cognition. Whilst prehabilitation has been gaining popularity in cancer treatment, conferring significant positive benefits to numerous physiological indicators, including post‐operative infection and hospital length

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

The sympathoregulatory region of the mouse rostral brainstem relies on both GABA and glycine to generate inhibitory currents

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Our study demonstrates that both GABA and glycine mediate inhibitory postsynaptic currents in the ventrolateral/ventromedial medulla (VLM/VMM) and increasing the activity of inhibitory synapses facilitates glycine release. We found that presympathetic VLM/VMM neurons receive glycinergic inputs, which release both glycine and GABA,
