Inner Ear Immunity and Audio‐Vestibular Dysfunction

open access: yesSensory Neuroscience, Volume 1, Issue 1, April 2025.
Diagram of the immune response of the inner ear and associated damage. ABSTRACT The inner ear is a critical sensory organ regulated by the immune system to maintain balance and respond to external stimuli. Immune cells like macrophages, lymphocytes, neutrophils, and natural killer cells play important roles in inner ear immunity. Inflammatory mediators,

Tomography of the vestibular aqueduct in ear disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
A controversy exists concerning whether or not roentgenographic narrowing or nonvisualization of the vestibular aqueduct is a specific sign for Meniere's disease. Of 190 ears that were evaluated, abnormal aqueducts were seen in 42.9% of ears with Meniere'

Comparative Histopathologic Analysis of Inner Ear Damage in Meningitis: Otogenic Versus Meningogenic Routes

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 135, Issue 2, Page 864-872, February 2025.
A comparative study distinguishing histopathologic patterns of inner ear changes between meningogenic and otogenic routes in meningitis cases. Otogenic cases displayed a higher prevalence of changes in the spiral ligament and signs of early ossification, whereas meningogenic cases associated with a higher degree of vestibular damage.

Fluid–Structure Interaction Analysis of Trapezoidal and Arc‐Shaped Membranes Mimicking the Organ of Corti

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2025.
In the numerical analysis, solving a three‐dimensional fluid–structure interaction problem, resonant frequencies of the trapezoidal membrane are evaluated. Using the modified elastic modulus for the membrane, the vibration modes and resonant frequencies in liquids are in good agreement with experimental results.

Strial capillary permeability studied with fluorescent tracers in inbred mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The stria vascularis generates the endocochlear potential (EP), which relies on the maintenance of ionic boundaries. Strial and spiral ligament capillary permeability to FITC-conjugated dextrans and other tracers was assessed in mice of different strains,
