Hair Cell Generator Potentials [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of General Physiology, 1973
A technique is introduced using a piezoelectric device to stimulate hair cells of a molluscan statocyst while recording their responses intracellularly. Statocyst displacements produced with the technique are calibrated with stroboscopic photography. Properties of the hair cells' response to currents and mechanical stimulation are studied.

Regenerated hair cells in the neonatal cochlea are innervated and the majority co-express markers of both inner and outer hair cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
After a damaging insult, hair cells can spontaneously regenerate from cochlear supporting cells within the first week of life. While the regenerated cells express several markers of immature hair cells and have stereocilia bundles, their capacity to ...

Human hair follicles operate an internal Cori cycle and modulate their growth via glycogen phosphorylase

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Hair follicles (HFs) are unique, multi-compartment, mini-organs that cycle through phases of active hair growth and pigmentation (anagen), apoptosis-driven regression (catagen) and relative quiescence (telogen).

Hair Follicle Stem Cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings, 2003
The workshop on Hair Follicle Stem Cells brought together investigators who have used a variety of approaches to try to understand the biology of follicular epithelial stem cells, and the role that these cells play in regulating the hair cycle.

Hair cell afferent synapses [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 2008
This review will cover advances in the study of hair cell afferent synaptic function occurring between 2005 and 2008. During this time, capacitance measurements of vesicular fusion have continued to be refined, optical methods have added insights regarding vesicle trafficking, and paired intracellular recordings have established the transfer function ...

Aminoglycoside-Induced Phosphatidylserine Externalization in Sensory Hair Cells Is Regionally Restricted, Rapid, and Reversible [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The aminophospholipid phosphatidylserine (PS) is normally restricted to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. During certain cellular processes, including apoptosis, PS translocates to the outer leaflet and can be labeled with externally applied ...

Beyond generalized hair cells: Molecular cues for hair cell types [PDF]

open access: yesHearing Research, 2013
Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors (TFs) are crucial for inner ear neurosensory development. The proneural TF Atoh1 regulates the differentiation of hair cells (HCs) whereas Neurog1 and Neurod1 regulate specification and differentiation of neurons, respectively, but also affect HC development.

Stereociliary Myosin-1c Receptors Are Sensitive to Calcium Chelation and Absent from Cadherin 23 Mutant Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The identities of some of the constituents of the hair-cell transduction apparatus have been elucidated only recently. The molecular motor myosin-1c (Myo1c) functions in adaptation of the hair-cell response to sustained mechanical stimuli and is ...

GFI1 regulates hair cell differentiation by acting as an off-DNA transcriptional co-activator of ATOH1, and a DNA-binding repressor

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
GFI1 is a zinc finger transcription factor that is necessary for the differentiation and survival of hair cells in the cochlea. Deletion of Gfi1 in mice significantly reduces the expression of hundreds of hair cell genes: this is a surprising result, as ...

Hybrid in vitro diffusion cell for simultaneous evaluation of hair and skin decontamination: temporal distribution of chemical contaminants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Most casualty or personnel decontamination studies have focused on removing contaminants from the skin. However, scalp hair and underlying skin are the most likely areas of contamination following airborne exposure to chemicals. The aim of this study was
