Possibilities of Inner Ear Barrier Models for Otologic Drug Development

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
This review examines innovative organ chip models that reconstruct critical inner ear barriers, addressing a fundamental challenge in otologic drug development: the limited understanding of pharmaceutical behavior across these complex barriers. By replicating these barriers, the advanced models offer promising alternatives to traditional testing ...

Hippocampal Chandelier Cells Modulate Seizure Susceptibility and Severity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The axon initial segment (AIS), crucial for action potential initiation, serves as a prime locus for controlling network activity. Chandelier Cells (ChCs), evolved in the mammals, intricately target AISs, acting as gatekeepers for neuronal firing. Diminishing ChC input makes animals more prone to developing seizures, whereas fortifying this connection ...

Spontaneous behavior in noise and silence: a possible new measure to assess tinnitus in guinea pigs

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2014
This study describes two experiments that were conducted in search for a behavioral paradigm to test for tinnitus in guinea pigs. Conditioning paradigms are available to determine the presence of tinnitus in animals and are based on the assumption that ...

Forelimb Motor Learning and Memory Consolidation Drives Distinct Oligodendrocyte Plasticity to Regulate Task‐related Neuronal Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Genetic and chemical tracking of oligodendrogenesis, combining fiber photometric neuronal activity recording, reveals that distinct oligodendrocyte plasticities are adopted during different phases of motor learning to fine‐tune task‐related neuronal activity, with a preferential involvement of oligodendrogenesis suppression and node lengthening (type 2
