Insights into the Biology of Hearing and Deafness Revealed by Single-Cell RNA Sequencing
Summary: Single-cell RNA sequencing is a powerful tool by which to characterize the transcriptional profile of low-abundance cell types, but its application to the inner ear has been hampered by the bony labyrinth, tissue sparsity, and difficulty ...

Therapeutic potential of stem cells in auditory hair cell repair
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.

Investigating the expression profiles of cysteine string proteins (CSPs) in cochlear tissue
Objective: This study aims to explore the expression patterns of cysteine string protein alpha (CSPα) and cysteine string protein beta (CSPβ) in the mammalian inner ear, with an emphasis on their temporal dynamics during the developmental stages of C57BL/

Defective Tmprss3-Associated Hair Cell Degeneration in Inner Ear Organoids
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.
