Inner-Ear Disorders Presenting with Air–Bone Gaps: A Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Air–bone gaps (ABGs) are commonly found in patients with conductive or mixed hearing loss generally due to outer- and/or middle-ear diseases such as otitis externa, tympanic membrane perforation, interruption or fixation of the ossicular chain, and ...

Probing the Xenopus laevis inner ear transcriptome for biological function

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2012
Background The senses of hearing and balance depend upon mechanoreception, a process that originates in the inner ear and shares features across species.

Generation of inner ear organoids with functional hair cells from human pluripotent stem cells

open access: yesNature Biotechnology, 2017
The derivation of human inner ear tissue from pluripotent stem cells would enable in vitro screening of drug candidates for the treatment of hearing and balance dysfunction and may provide a source of cells for cell-based therapies of the inner ear. Here

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Exocytosis at mammalian vestibular ribbon synapses shows a high-order Ca2+ dependence and does not require synaptotagmin-4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Inner ear sensory synapses faithfully transduce information over a wide range of stimulus intensities for prolonged periods of time. The efficiency of such demanding and stringent exocytotic activity depends on the presence of specialised presynaptic ...

A Whole‐Head Finite Element Model for Electrical Neuromodulation via Visual Brain‐Machine Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A multimodal, personalized head model is presented that integrates the entire visual pathway with surrounding tissues to simulate electrical stimulation of the optic nerve. In vivo validation in humans and goats, plus systematic component‐elimination analysis, demonstrates the high accuracy of the comprehensive model.

Autoimmune inner ear disease (AIED): A diagnostic challenge

open access: yesInternational Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2018
Autoimmune inner ear disease (AIED) has been defined as a condition of bilateral sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), caused by an ‘uncontrolled’ immune system response.

Mitochondria and Neuromast Tagging With Fluorescent Gallium‐Triapine Analogues: In Cellulo MP FLIM and Zebrafish Live Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Fluorescent BODIPY‐conjugated thiosemicarbazone ligands and their Ga(III), In(III), and Fe(III) complexes, inspired by Triapine, are developed as theranostic agents. Multiphoton FLIM and confocal microscopy in cancer cells and zebrafish reveal real‐time uptake, mitochondrial localisation, and whilst spectroscopic assays indicated preserved complex ...

Genomic analysis of the function of the transcription factor gata3 during development of the Mammalian inner ear [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We have studied the function of the zinc finger transcription factor gata3 in auditory system development by analysing temporal profiles of gene expression during differentiation of conditionally immortal cell lines derived to model specific auditory ...

Inner ear pathologies impair sodium-regulated ion transport in Meniere’s disease

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica, 2018
Meniere’s disease (MD), a syndromal inner ear disease, is commonly associated with a pathological accumulation of endolymphatic fluid in the inner ear, termed “idiopathic” endolymphatic hydrops (iEH).
