Viscoelastic relaxation in the membrane of the auditory outer hair cell

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1996
The outer hair cell (OHC) in the mammalian ear has a unique membrane potential-dependent motility, which is considered to be important for frequency discrimination (tuning). The OHC motile mechanism is located at the cell membrane and is strongly influenced by its passive mechanical properties.

Erythropoietin but not VEGF has a protective effect on auditory hair cells in the inner ear [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
It has recently been shown that the oxygen-regulated factors erythropoietin (Epo) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) confer protection on different cells, including neuronal-derived ones.

Selective deletion of cochlear hair cells causes rapid age-dependent changes in spiral ganglion and cochlear nucleus neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
During nervous system development, critical periods are usually defined as early periods during which manipulations dramatically change neuronal structure or function, whereas the same manipulations in mature animals have little or no effect on the same ...

RONIN/HCF1‐TFEB Axis Protects Against D‐Galactose‐Induced Cochlear Hair Cell Senescence Through Autophagy Activation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
D‐galactose (D‐gal) induced inner ear hair cell senescence by inhibiting TFEB transcription. RONIN/HCF1 promotes TFEB transcription to prevent cochlear HCs from D‐gal‐induced senescence through autophagy activation. Abstract Age‐related hearing loss is characterized by senescent inner ear hair cells (HCs) and reduced autophagy.

Inner-ear abnormalities and their functional consequences in Belgian Waterslager canaries (Serinus canarius) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Recent reports of elevated auditory thresholds in canaries of the Belgian Waterslager strain have shown that this strain has an inherited auditory deficit in which absolute auditory thresholds at high frequencies (i.e. above 2.0 kHz) are as much as 40 dB

Exploring AAV‐Mediated Gene Therapy for Inner Ear Diseases: from Preclinical Success to Clinical Potential

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Current preclinical studies of AAV‐mediated gene therapy explore different strategies based on the characteristics of inner ear diseases. For genetic hearing loss, approaches include the replacement of a “good gene,” removal of a “bad gene,” or direct correction of mutations through base editing.

Pinoresinol Diglucoside Attenuates Nuclear Receptor Coactivator 4‐Mediated Ferritinophagy Associated with Cisplatin‐Induced Hearing Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Pinoresinol diglucoside, a bioactive component extracted from traditional Chinese medicine, attenuates cisplatin‐induced ototoxicity in vivo and in vitro. The protective effect is achieved by downregulation of Socs1. The present study is the first to investigate the expression and function of Socs1 in inner ear, which is known to promote ferroptosis ...

Upregulated Expression and Shifted Distribution of Melatonin and Its Synthesizing Enzymes From Postnatal to Young Adult Rat Cochleae. [PDF]

open access: yesDev Neurobiol
ABSTRACT The cochlea's cellular architecture plays a critical role in auditory perception, yet is highly susceptible to degenerative factors. While melatonin is known for its antioxidative properties in the adult cochlea, its expression during early development remains understudied.

Gata3 is required for the functional maturation of inner hair cells and their innervation in the mouse cochlea

open access: yesJournal of Physiology, 2019
The physiological maturation of auditory hair cells and their innervation requires precise temporal and spatial control of cell differentiation. The transcription factor gata3 is essential for the earliest stages of auditory system development and for ...
