Navigating the Genetic Risk of Chemotherapy‐Induced Hearing Loss in the Stria Vascularis
Cisplatin is a chemotherapy drug that causes permanent hearing loss by damaging a critical tissue lining the inner ear, called the stria vascularis (SV). Currently, the molecular mechanisms of SV damage are largely unknown and the incidence of ototoxicity in patients cannot be reliably predicted.

Hereditary hearing loss is challenging to diagnose because of the heterogeneity of the causative genes. Further, some genes involved in hereditary hearing loss have yet to be identified.

ABSTRACT We investigated whether statolith microchemistry analysis could classify ommastrephid and loliginid squid species into fishery stocks. Statolith nucleus (early life stage) and edge (life stage at time before catch) of Illex coindetii (Verany, 1839) and Loligo forbesii (Steenstrup, 1856) from various areas of the North East Atlantic Ocean and ...

Electrical Control of the Transduction Channels’ Gating Force in Mechanosensory Hair Cells
The inner ear's hair cells rely on mechanosensitive ion channels to convert vibrations of their hair‐bundle into electrical signals. We show that varying the electrical potential (U) across the sensory epithelium modulates a key determinant of mechanosensitivity—the gating force (FG)—by modulating the gating swing (d), ranging from the size of the ...

Abstract The pre‐hearing mouse cochlea undergoes critical periods of spontaneous Ca2+‐dependent activity that spreads across non‐sensory supporting cells and inner hair cells (IHCs). These signals have been shown to regulate not only the refinement of neural circuits along the auditory pathway towards functional maturity, but also the maturation of the

Quantifying physiological influences on otolith microchemistry [PDF]
Trace element concentrations in fish earstones (‘otoliths’) are widely used to discriminate spatially discrete populations or individuals of marine fish, based on a commonly held assumption that physiological influences on otolith composition are minor ...

Personalized Models of Biological Barriers and Their Diseases: Recent Progress with Organs‐On‐Chips
Buck and Bugter et al. explore the architectural diversity and physiological functions of human barrier systems and reveal how organ‐on‐chip platforms, particularly those integrating patient‐derived cells, are advancing barrier disease modeling. They highlight how emerging biological and technological advances can be used to bridge the gap between ...

The pressure difference between the perilymph and the endolymph following infusion of artificial endolymph into the endolymphatic space was studied in guinea pigs. The perilymphatic and the endolymphatic pressures were measured simultaneously with two sets of a servo-pulling system.
