Effects of sound-induced hearing loss and hearing AIDS on the perception of music [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This is the final version of the article. It first appeared from the Audio Engineering Society via https://doi.org/10.17743/jaes.2015.0081Exposure to high-level music produces several physiological changes in the auditory system that lead to a variety of

Speech Recognition with Cochlea‐Inspired In‐Sensor Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Traditional speech recognition methods rely on software‐based feature extraction that introduces latency and high energy costs, making them unsuitable for low‐power devices. A proof‐of‐concept demonstration is provided of a bioinspired tonotopic sensor for speech recognition that mimics the human cochlea, using a spiral‐shaped elastic metamaterial. The

Tsukushi is essential for the development of the inner ear

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2020
Tsukushi (TSK)—a small, secreted, leucine-rich-repeat proteoglycan—interacts with and regulates essential cellular signaling cascades. However, its functions in the mouse inner ear are unknown.

NF-κB is Required for Survival of Immature Auditory Hair Cells In Vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Damage to auditory hair cells in the inner ear as a consequence of aging, disease, acoustic trauma, or exposure to ototoxins underlies most cases of hearing impairment.

Regeneration of the auditory nerve - a cell transplantation study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Since in mammals, the hair cells or the spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in the inner ear do not regenerate, damage to these cells is an irreversible process.

A synaptic F-actin network controls otoferlin-dependent exocytosis in auditory inner hair cells

open access: yeseLife, 2015
We show that a cage-shaped F-actin network is essential for maintaining a tight spatial organization of Cav1.3 Ca2+ channels at the synaptic ribbons of auditory inner hair cells. This F-actin network is also found to provide mechanosensitivity to the Cav1.3 channels when varying intracellular hydrostatic pressure. Furthermore, this F-actin mesh network

A Novel Missense Variant in LMX1A Leads to Autosomal Dominant Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hereditary nonsyndromic hearing loss (NSHL) is a prevalent entity associated with over 150 known causative genes, including LMX1A, which has fewer than 10 reported pathogenic variants. Here we present a novel missense variant in LMX1A in a family of European descent with hereditary hearing loss. Clinical and family histories were obtained, and

Mechanisms of synaptic depression at the hair cell ribbon synapse that support auditory nerve function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Inner hair cells (IHCs) in the cochlea are the mammalian phono-receptors, transducing sound energy into graded changes in membrane potentials, the so called “receptor potentials.” Ribbon synapses between IHCs and auditory nerve neurons are responsible ...

Early synapsids neurosensory diversity revealed by CT and synchrotron scanning

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Non‐mammaliaform synapsids (NMS) represent the closest relatives of today's mammals among the early amniotes. Exploring their brain and nervous system is key to understanding how mammals evolved. Here, using CT and Synchrotron scanning, we document for the first time three extreme cases of neurosensory and behavioral adaptations that probe ...

Intraspecific variation of cochlear morphology in bowhead and beluga whales

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The bony labyrinth of the petrosal bone, a distinctive feature of mammal skulls, is often identified in micro‐computed tomography imaging to infer species' physiological and ecological traits. When done as part of a comparative study, one individual specimen is normally considered representative of a species, and intraspecific variation is ...
