Postnatal maturation of auditory-nerve heterogeneity, as seen in spatial gradients of synapse morphology in the inner hair cell area [PDF]
Hearing Research, 2016 Auditory nerve fibers in the adult ear are divided into functional subgroups according to spontaneous rate (SR) and threshold sensitivity. The high-threshold, low-SR fibers are morphologically and spatially distinct from the low-threshold high-SR fibers at their synaptic contacts with inner hair cells.

Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Auditory hypersensitivity is a prominent symptom in Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most prevalent monogenic cause of autism and intellectual disability. FXS arises through the loss of the protein encoded by the FMR1 (Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein 1) gene, FMRP, required for normal neural circuit excitability.

Molecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2016 Synaptopathy in the cochlea occurs when the connection between inner hair cells and the auditory nerve is disrupted, leading to impaired hearing and nerve degeneration. Experiments using transgenic mice have shown that overexpression of NT3 by supporting

Audio-vestibular symptoms in systemic autoimmune diseases [PDF]
, 2018 Immune-mediated inner ear disease can be primary, when the autoimmune response is against the inner ear, or secondary. The latter is characterized by the involvement of the ear in the presence of systemic autoimmune conditions. Sensorineural hearing loss

Loss of auditory sensitivity from inner hair cell synaptopathy can be centrally compensated in the young but not old brain [PDF]
Neurobiology of Aging, 2016 A dramatic shift in societal demographics will lead to rapid growth in the number of older people with hearing deficits. Poorer performance in suprathreshold speech understanding and temporal processing with age has been previously linked with progressing inner hair cell (IHC) synaptopathy that precedes age-dependent elevation of auditory thresholds ...

ChemBioChem, EarlyView.At the intersection of chemical biology, plant imaging, and contemporary art, this review introduces the concept of chembioart. By tracing how chemical reporters illuminate plant biomolecules in vivo, their role not only in advancing scientific understanding but also in inspiring transdisciplinary collaborations and visual expression is highlighted ...

Type II spiral ganglion afferent neurons drive medial olivocochlear reflex suppression of the cochlear amplifier. [PDF]
, 2015 The dynamic adjustment of hearing sensitivity and frequency selectivity is mediated by the medial olivocochlear efferent reflex, which suppresses the gain of the 'cochlear amplifier' in each ear.

Navigating the Genetic Risk of Chemotherapy‐Induced Hearing Loss in the Stria Vascularis
Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.Cisplatin is a chemotherapy drug that causes permanent hearing loss by damaging a critical tissue lining the inner ear, called the stria vascularis (SV). Currently, the molecular mechanisms of SV damage are largely unknown and the incidence of ototoxicity in patients cannot be reliably predicted.

Specific Influences of Early Acoustic Environments on Cochlear Hair Cells in Postnatal Mice
Neural Plasticity, 2018 The auditory function develops and matures after birth in many mammalian species. After hearing onset, environmental sounds exert profound and long-term effects on auditory functions.
