Research Progress on the Mechanism of Cochlear Hair Cell Regeneration
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021 Mammalian inner ear hair cells do not have the ability to spontaneously regenerate, so their irreversible damage is the main cause of sensorineural hearing loss.

Myosin light-chain kinase is necessary for membrane homeostasis in cochlear inner hair cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The structural homeostasis of the cochlear hair cell membrane is critical for all aspects of sensory transduction, but the regulation of its maintenance is not well understood.

Kölliker’s organ-supporting cells and cochlear auditory development
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022 The Kölliker’s organ is a transient cellular cluster structure in the development of the mammalian cochlea. It gradually degenerates from embryonic columnar cells to cuboidal cells in the internal sulcus at postnatal day 12 (P12)–P14, with the cochlea ...

Rat Auditory Inner Hair Cell Mechanotransduction and Stereociliary Membrane Diffusivity Are Similarly Modulated by Calcium [PDF]
iScience, 2020 The lipid bilayer plays a pivotal role in force transmission to many mechanically-gated channels. We developed the technology to monitor membrane diffusivity in order to test the hypothesis positing that Ca2+ regulates open probability (P o) of cochlear hair cell mechanotransduction (MET) channels via the plasma membrane. The stereociliary membrane was

Current Response in CaV1.3–/– Mouse Vestibular and Cochlear Hair Cells
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Signal transmission by sensory auditory and vestibular hair cells relies upon Ca2+-dependent exocytosis of glutamate. The Ca2+ current in mammalian inner ear hair cells is predominantly carried through CaV1.3 voltage-gated Ca2+ channels.

Age-related changes in auditory nerve–inner hair cell connections, hair cell numbers, auditory brain stem response and gap detection in UM-HET4 mice [PDF]
Neuroscience, 2015 This study compared the timing of appearance of three components of age-related hearing loss that determine the pattern and severity of presbycusis: the functional and structural pathologies of sensory cells and neurons and changes in gap detection (GD), the latter as an indicator of auditory temporal processing.

Development of otic organoids and their current status [PDF]
Organoid, 2023 The inner ear is responsible for both hearing and balance in the body, and since the initial development of otic (inner ear) organoids from mouse pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) in 2013, significant advances have been made in this field. Bone morphogenetic

Approaches of auditory hair cells induction from stem cells
Otorhinolaryngology and Facial Plastic Surgery, 2017 Hair cells are the sensory epithelial cells of both the auditory and the vestibular systems in the inner ear of all vertebrates. Auditory hair cells are located in the organ of corti on a thin layer of basement membrane in the cochlea of the inner ear ...

Parallel Distribution of an Inner Hair Cell and Auditory Nerve Model for Real-Time Application [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Circuits and Systems, 2017 This paper summarizes recent efforts in implementing a model of the ear's inner hair cell and auditory nerve on a neuromorphic hardware platform, the SpiNNaker machine. This exploits the massive parallelism of the target architecture to obtain real-time modeling of a biologically realistic number of human auditory nerve fibres.

eLife, 2019 The mammalian auditory sensory epithelium has one of the most stereotyped cellular patterns known in vertebrates. Mechano-sensory hair cells are arranged in precise rows, with one row of inner and three rows of outer hair cells spanning the length of the
