Hearing Research, 1990
This study assessed the contribution of the apical hair cells to hearing. Guinea pigs, chinchillas and monkeys were behaviorally trained using positive reinforcement to respond to pure-tone stimuli. When a stable audiogram had been determined, each subject received one of three experimental treatments: ototoxic drug administration, low-frequency noise ...

Vesicle Targeting in Hair Cells
Audiology and Neurotology, 2002The mammalian hair cell has two distinct plasma membrane domains separated by tight junctions, the apical domain which contains the stereocilia and the basolateral domain which contains the presynaptic region. Little is known concerning the mechanisms that regulate vesicle trafficking to these two domains.

MECHANISMS OF HAIR CELL TUNING
Annual Review of Physiology, 1999▪ Abstract Mechanosensory hair cells of the vertebrate inner ear contribute to acoustic tuning through feedback processes involving voltage-gated channels in the basolateral membrane and mechanotransduction channels in the apical hair bundle. The specific number and kinetics of calcium-activated (BK) potassium channels determine the resonant ...

Hair Cells – Beyond the Transducer
Journal of Membrane Biology, 2006This review considers the "tween twixt and twain" of hair cell physiology, specifically the signaling elements and membrane conductances which underpin forward and reverse transduction at the input stage of hair cell function and neurotransmitter release at the output stage. Other sections of this review series outline the advances which have been made

Functional Development of Hair Cells
2003Abstract Embryonic hair cells in chicks and mammals have functional transduction channels and voltage-gated outwardly rectifying potassium (K + ) channels, fast inwardly rectifying channels, and voltage-gated sodium (Na + ) and calcium (Ca 2+ ) channels.

Cochlear Outer Hair Cell Motility
Physiological Reviews, 2008Normal hearing depends on sound amplification within the mammalian cochlea. The amplification, without which the auditory system is effectively deaf, can be traced to the correct functioning of a group of motile sensory hair cells, the outer hair cells of the cochlea.
