Intermediate filaments link glutamate-aspartate transporter deficiency to cochlear synaptopathy. [PDF]
In a healthy ear, GLAST transporters in supporting cells clear excess glutamate to protect auditory connections. When GLAST is missing, glutamate accumulates and leads to the destruction of structural scaffolding within the postsynaptic nerve endings. This internal collapse causes a loss of synapses that are essential for hearing, ultimately resulting ...

Macrophages Promote Repair of Inner Hair Cell Ribbon Synapses following Noise-Induced Cochlear Synaptopathy. [PDF]
Resident cochlear macrophages rapidly migrate into the inner hair cell synaptic region and directly contact the damaged synaptic connections after noise-induced synaptopathy.

Preventive Effects of Ginkgo-Extract EGb 761® on Noise Trauma-Induced Cochlear Synaptopathy. [PDF]
Noise trauma-induced loss of ribbon synapses at the inner hair cells (IHC) of the cochlea may lead to hearing loss (HL), resulting in tinnitus. We are convinced that a successful and sustainable therapy of tinnitus has to treat both symptom and cause ...

Looking for objective correlates between tinnitus and cochlear synaptopathy [PDF]
Tinnitus is the perception of a sound in the absence of acoustic stimulation. While usually connected to a hearing loss, there exists a subset of tinnitus sufferers with audiologically normal hearing, whose tinnitus was often initiated by a noise trauma.
