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

Progressive auditory neuropathy in patients with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy [PDF]
, 2004 Objective: To investigate auditory neural involvement in patients with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON).Methods: Auditory assessment was undertaken in two patients with LHON.

Journal of Neuroscience, 2017 The mechanisms orchestrating transient and sustained exocytosis in auditory inner hair cells (IHCs) remain largely unknown. These exocytotic responses are believed to mobilize sequentially a readily releasable pool of vesicles (RRP) underneath the ...

Citicoline Protects Auditory Hair Cells Against Neomycin-Induced Damage
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Aminoglycoside-induced hair cell (HC) loss is one of the most important causes of hearing loss. After entering the inner ear, aminoglycosides induce the production of high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that subsequently activate apoptosis in ...

Sound-Evoked Radial Strain in the Hearing Organ [PDF]
, 2007 The hearing organ contains sensory hair cells, which convert sound-evoked vibration into action potentials in the auditory nerve. This process is greatly enhanced by molecular motors that reside within the outer hair cells, but the performance also ...

A Biophysical Model of the Inner Hair Cell: The Contribution of Potassium Currents to Peripheral Auditory Compression [PDF]
Journal of the Association for Research in Otolaryngology, 2006 The term peripheral auditory compression refers to the fact that the whole range of audible sound pressure levels is mapped into a narrower range of auditory nerve responses. Peripheral compression is the by-product of independent compressive processes occurring at the level of the basilar membrane, the inner hair cell (IHC), and the auditory nerve ...

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

Compartmentalized and signal-selective gap junctional coupling in the hearing cochlea [PDF]
, 2006 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 ...

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

Perspectives on Auditory Neuropathy: Disorders of Inner Hair Cell, Auditory Nerve, and Their Synapse [PDF]
, 2008 The term auditory neuropathy (Starr, A. et al., 1996) was first used to describe a hearing disorder due to altered function of the auditory nerve in the presence of preserved functions of cochlear outer hair cells (OHCs; Starr, A. et al., 1991). The hearing loss has specific features reflecting impairment of auditory temporal processes that are ...
