Defective Tmprss3-Associated Hair Cell Degeneration in Inner Ear Organoids

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Mutations in the gene encoding the type II transmembrane protease 3 (TMPRSS3) cause human hearing loss, although the underlying mechanisms that result in TMPRSS3-related hearing loss are still unclear.

A Novel Missense Variant in LMX1A Leads to Autosomal Dominant Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 2, Page 531-534, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Hereditary nonsyndromic hearing loss (NSHL) is a prevalent entity associated with over 150 known causative genes, including LMX1A, which has fewer than 10 reported pathogenic variants. Here we present a novel missense variant in LMX1A in a family of European descent with hereditary hearing loss. Clinical and family histories were obtained, and

An efficient strategy for establishing a model of sensorineural deafness in rats

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
Ototoxic drugs can be used to produce a loss of cochlear hair cells to create animal models of deafness. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no report on the establishment of a rat deafness model through the combined application of ...

Distribution of Voltage‐Gated Sodium Channels and Scaffolding Proteins on Vestibular Calyx Ending Delineates the Axon Initial Segment

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 2, February 2026.
Various sodium channel isoforms and their scaffolding proteins are found in four different microdomains in vestibular calyx‐bearing afferents. These microdomains serve different purposes, analogous to the heminode, axon initial segment, and synaptic domains of other types of sensory afferents.

The Key Transcription Factor Expression in the Developing Vestibular and Auditory Sensory Organs: A Comprehensive Comparison of Spatial and Temporal Patterns

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2018
Inner ear formation requires that a series of cell fate decisions and morphogenetic events occur in a precise temporal and spatial pattern. Previous studies have shown that transcription factors, including Pax2, Sox2, and Prox1, play important roles ...

Therapeutic potential of stem cells in auditory hair cell repair

open access: yesJournal of Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine, 2009
The prevalence of acquired hearing loss is very high. About 10% of the total population and more than one third of the population over 65 years suffer from debilitating hearing loss.
