Advanced Materials for Biologics Delivery to Brain Tumors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Material innovation is central to unlocking the therapeutic potential of biologics against many central nervous system diseases, including brain cancer. By engineering carriers with controlled transport, targeting, and release properties, advanced materials can overcome the blood–brain barrier and tumor microenvironment, improving the delivery of ...

Deaf mute or Deaf

Asian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2017
Hearing loss is a common disorder and can be conductive, sensorineural or mixed types. It can be congenital or acquired. In pediatric population more than 50% of deafness is genetic in origin. The patients may present as Deaf, mute or hard of hearing.

Early Gap Detection Threshold Predicts Late Speech Perception in Cochlear Implant Users

Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery
Objective To study whether the ability to detect frequency changes or temporal gaps at the early phase postactivation can predict speech perception performance at the late phase postactivation in postlingually deafened cochlear implant (CI) users. Method

Whole Exome Sequencing Identified a Novel Mutation in the LOXHD1 Gene in Consanguineous Iranian Families With Hearing Loss. [PDF]

J Clin Lab Anal
Whole exome sequencing in a consanguineous Iranian family with autosomal recessive non‐syndromic hearing loss revealed a novel homozygous frameshift mutation, c.3713dupA (p.Asp1238Glufs*10), in the LOXHD1 gene. This mutation, located in exon 24, results in a premature stop codon and a truncated protein. Sanger sequencing confirmed co‐segregation of the

Deafness, discourse and identity:: critical issues in deaf education [PDF]

, 2004
It has long been acknowledged that the main problem associated with deaf education is one of language. To remedy this issue, education polices and methods have focused on the children's inability to communicate effectively in the majority language and ...

Molecular and Cellular Hallmarks of Age‐Related Vestibular Hair Cell Degeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study utilizes single‐cell RNA‐seq transcriptomes, advanced imaging, and electrophysiology to examine universal and cell‐type‐specific aging signatures of vestibular hair cells. The study shows that impaired hair bundle function is a key driver of age‐related vestibular dysfunction.

Load-induced inattentional deafness

Attention, perception & psychophysics, 2014
High perceptual load in a task is known to reduce the visual perception of unattended items (e.g., Lavie, Beck, & Konstantinou, 2014). However, it remains an open question whether perceptual load in one modality (e.g., vision) can affect the detection of

TECTB Variants Reveal Tectorial Membrane Vulnerability in Dominant Non‐Syndromic Hearing Loss

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TECTB is a non‐collagenous protein of the tectorial membrane – an extracellular matrix of the cochlea. This study identifies dominant missense variants in TECTB linked to human hereditary deafness in two unrelated families. Genetically engineered mice homozygous for one of the variants are profoundly deaf, whereas heterozygous mice have normal hearing ...

CRISPR and Gene Augmentation Rescue Trabecular Meshwork Dysfunction in iPSC Models of Lowe Syndrome

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By modeling Lowe syndrome using patient‐derived iPSCs, this study establishes a human disease model that faithfully recapitulates OCRL deficiency‐associated ciliary and cytoskeletal defects. The model enables evaluation of both mutation‐agnostic DNA augmentation and CRISPR‐mediated mutation correction strategies, both of which restore OCRL function and
