Biocompatibility of Liposome Nanocarriers in the Rat Inner Ear After Intratympanic Administration

Nanoscale Research Letters, 2017
Liposome nanocarriers (LPNs) are potentially the future of inner ear therapy due to their high drug loading capacity and efficient uptake in the inner ear after a minimally invasive intratympanic administration.

Manufacturing and in vivo inner ear visualization of MRI traceable liposome nanoparticles encapsulating gadolinium

Journal of Nanobiotechnology, 2010
Background Treatment of inner ear diseases remains a problem because of limited passage through the blood-inner ear barriers and lack of control with the delivery of treatment agents by intravenous or oral administration. As a minimally-invasive approach,

Functional anatomy of the middle and inner ears of the red fox, in comparison to domestic dogs and cats

, 2020
Anatomical middle and inner ear parameters are often used to predict hearing sensitivities of mammalian species. Given that ear morphology is substantially affected both by phylogeny and body size, it is interesting to consider whether the relatively ...

Development of a dynamic virtual reality model of the inner ear sensory system as a learning and demonstrating tool [PDF]

, 2009
In order to keep track of the position and motion of our body in space, nature has given us a fascinating and very ingenious organ, the inner ear. Each inner ear includes five biological sensors - three angular and two linear accelerometers - which ...

Multimodal Atlas of the Murine Inner Ear: From Embryo to Adult

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
The inner ear is a complex organ housed within the petrous bone of the skull. Its intimate relationship with the brain enables the transmission of auditory and vestibular signals via cranial nerves.

Plastin 1 widens stereocilia by transforming actin filament packing from hexagonal to liquid [PDF]

, 2016
With their essential role in inner-ear function, stereocilia of sensory hair cells demonstrate the importance of cellular actin protrusions. Actin packing in stereocilia is mediated by crosslinkers of the plastin, fascin, and espin families.

Precision medicine: a new era for inner ear diseases

Frontiers in Pharmacology
The inner ear is the organ responsible for hearing and balance. Inner ear dysfunction can be the result of infection, trauma, ototoxic drugs, genetic mutation or predisposition. Often, like for Ménière disease, the cause is unknown.
