High accuracy decoding of dynamical motion from a large retinal population [PDF]
Motion tracking is a challenge the visual system has to solve by reading out the retinal population. Here we recorded a large population of ganglion cells in a dense patch of salamander and guinea pig retinas while displaying a bar moving diffusively.

Emerging Therapeutic Strategies for Hearing Loss
Challenges still exist in treating hearing loss in cases of severe damage to hair cells or spiral ganglion neurons. Here, a schematic diagram of cochlear sensory hair cells and auditory nerves is presented. It is found that in normal Corti organs, hair cells have upright stereocilia at the top and auditory neurons at the base. Ototoxic drugs, noise, or

Magnetocardiography on an isolated animal heart with a room-temperature optically pumped magnetometer [PDF]
Optically pumped magnetometers are becoming a promising alternative to cryogenically-cooled superconducting magnetometers for detecting and imaging biomagnetic fields. Magnetic field detection is a completely non-invasive method, which allows one to study the function of excitable human organs with a sensor placed outside the human body.

Guinea Pig and Rat as Carriers of Host-unique and Shared Haemophilus Phenotypes [PDF]
Infections by V- factor dependent Pasteurellaceae (commonly called Haemophilus spp) frequently occur in colonies of guinea pig and rat. We evaluated possible differences between 185 Haemophilus strains from guinea pig (n=97) and rat (n=88) by API NH ...

The Guinea Pig Club: Forces and factors that revolutionised burns plastic surgery
The ‘Guinea Pig Club’ has been described as the most exclusive club in the world, but the entrance fee is something most men would care not to pay, and the conditions of membership are arduous in the extreme.

In this study, saponin‐coated silica@gold nanocarriers responsive to NIR radiation is developed to enhance intratympanic drug delivery for cisplatin‐induced hearing loss (CIHL) treatment. The biocompatibility and oto‐protective properties are validated both in vitro and in vivo.

Karyotype of Hairless Guinea pig [PDF]
Chromosomal patterns of experimental animals are useful tools for cytogenetics research and animal breeding. Chromosome investigations of the hairless guinea pig are rare, therefore, karyotype of hairless guinea pigs (twelve male and female) was studied ...

Cysteinyl Leukotriene Receptor Type 1 (CysLT1) Mediates Contraction of the Guinea Pig Lower Esophageal Sphincter [PDF]
ObjectiveLeukotriene D4 (LTD4) causes contraction of the cat lower esophageal sphincter. The effects of leukotrienes in the guinea pig lower esophageal sphincter and the cysteinyl leukotriene receptor (CysLT) subtype that mediate this contraction are not

Noise‐induced synaptopathy (NIS) is largely reversible due to self‐repair. NIS and noise‐induced hidden hearing loss are two concepts with similarities and differences. The major hearing deficits in NIHHL are temporal processing disorders. The translation of animal data in NIS studies to humans is hindered by many factors.
