Connexin 26 Functions as a Direct Transcriptional Regulator During the Cochlea Development

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Connexin26 can not only form intercellular channels that mediate rapid communication on the cell membrane, but also enter the nucleus as a transcription factor to directly regulate the transcription of nuclear genes. In the developing cochlea, Cx26 can control the maturation of the molecular scissor ADAM10 by regulating the transcription of TspanC8 ...

Cidea Targeting Protects Cochlear Hair Cells and Hearing Function From Drug‐ and Noise‐Induced Damage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Acquired sensorineural hearing loss is primarily caused by the damage or loss of cochlear hair cells, induced by factors such as noise exposure and ototoxic drugs. The deficiency of apoptosis‐inducing gene Cidea in Cidea KO mice or by delivering CRISPR/SlugCas9‐HF via AAV to edit Cidea effectively alleviated hair cell damage and hearing loss caused by ...

Compensatory Interplay Between Clarin‐1 and Clarin‐2 Deafness‐Associated Proteins Governs Phenotypic Variability in Hearing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Functional compensation between clarin‐1 and clarin‐2 in cochlear hair cells. Hearing loss associated with CLRN1 mutations shows striking phenotypic variability; however, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study reveals that clarin‐1 and clarin‐2 function cooperatively in cochlear hair cells to sustain mechanoelectrical ...

Construction of pathogenic Sec16a mutation mouse model using CRISPR/Cas9

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Yaqiang Hu et al. engineered a pathogenic Sec16a mutant mouse model using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. They observed that the Sec16a mutant mice displayed diminished learning and memory capabilities, along with a limb‐clasping phenotype upon tail suspension.

Regeneration of stereocilia of hair cells by forced Atoh1 expression in the adult mammalian cochlea. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The hallmark of mechanosensory hair cells is the stereocilia, where mechanical stimuli are converted into electrical signals. These delicate stereocilia are susceptible to acoustic trauma and ototoxic drugs.

Altered Auditory Maturation in Fragile X Syndrome and Its Involvement in Audiogenic Seizure Susceptibility

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Auditory hypersensitivity is a prominent symptom in Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most prevalent monogenic cause of autism and intellectual disability. FXS arises through the loss of the protein encoded by the FMR1 (Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein 1) gene, FMRP, required for normal neural circuit excitability.

Transforming Brain Health With Neurotechnology Convergence (Part II): Intelligent Neurointervention Systems for Neurological Disorders

open access: yesBrain Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurological disorders represent a critical domain within global health, necessitating advanced interventions to address complex pathologies such as tumors, functional disorders, and cerebrovascular diseases. Despite the proven benefits of early intervention, current treatment paradigms face significant challenges: (1) limited precision in ...

Cochlear implant-evoked electrical auditory brainstem responses during surgery in patients with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder [PDF]

open access: yesCochlear Implants International, 2011
During recent years, cochlear implantation has become an established treatment option for some patients with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD). In a study from Berlin et al.

Scalp‐negative medial temporal interictal epileptic discharges alter large‐scale brain networks: A simultaneous high‐density electroencephalographic and intracranial electroencephalographic study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) observed on scalp electroencephalography (EEG) serve as a diagnostic hallmark of epilepsy. However, only a small fraction of IEDs recorded by intracranial EEG (iEEG) are detectable on the scalp; the vast majority remain invisible on scalp recordings.

Reducing artifacts in electrically evoked auditory potentials (eAEP)

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering
Introduction: In auditory evoked potentials (= AEP), auditory brainstem response (= ABR) is the gold standard for objective analysis of the auditory pathway using acoustical stimulators like headphones during hearing screening and patient assessment ...
