Approaches of auditory hair cells induction from stem cells
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 ...

Development of otic organoids and their current status [PDF]
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

Compartmentalized and signal-selective gap junctional coupling in the hearing cochlea [PDF]
Gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) plays a major role in cochlear function. Recent evidence suggests that connexin 26 (Cx26) and Cx30 are the major constituent proteins of cochlear gap junction channels, possibly in a unique heteromeric ...

Hair cell maturation is differentially regulated along the tonotopic axis of the mammalian cochlea [PDF]
Sound amplification within the mammalian cochlea depends upon specialized hair cells, the outer hair cells (OHCs), which possess both sensory and motile capabilities.

Mutations in ap1b1 Cause Mistargeting of the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase Pump in Sensory Hair Cells. [PDF]
The hair cells of the inner ear are polarized epithelial cells with a specialized structure at the apical surface, the mechanosensitive hair bundle.

Parallel Distribution of an Inner Hair Cell and Auditory Nerve Model for Real-Time Application [PDF]
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.

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

Retardation of cochlear maturation and impaired hair cell function caused by deletion of all known thyroid hormone receptors [PDF]
The deafness caused by early onset hypothyroidism indicates that thyroid hormone is essential for the development of hearing. We investigated the underlying roles of the TRa1 and TRß thyroid hormone receptors in the auditory system using receptor ...

Inner-Hair Cells Parameterized-Hardware Implementation for Personalized Auditory Nerve Stimulation [PDF]
In this paper the hardware implementation of an inner hair cell model is presented. Main features of the design are the use of Meddis’ transduction structure and the methodology for Design with Reusability. Which allows future migration to new hardware and design refinements for speech processing and custom-made hearing ...

Evaluation of inner hair cell and nerve fiber loss as sufficient pathologies underlying auditory neuropathy [PDF]
Auditory neuropathy is a hearing disorder characterized by normal function of outer hair cells, evidenced by intact cochlear microphonic (CM) potentials and otoacoustic emissions (OAEs), with absent or severely dys-synchronized auditory brainstem responses (ABRs).
