Adaptation in auditory hair cells
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2003The narrow stimulus limits of hair cell transduction, equivalent to a total excursion of about 100nm at the tip of the hair bundle, demand tight regulation of the mechanical input to ensure that the mechanoelectrical transducer (MET) channels operate in their linear range.

Bifurcation and Chaos of Spontaneous Oscillations of Hair Bundles in Auditory Hair Cells
International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, 2021Various spontaneous oscillations and Hopf bifurcation have been observed in hair bundles of auditory hair cells, which play very important roles in the auditory function. In the present paper, the bifurcations and chaos of spontaneous oscillations of hair bundles are investigated in a theoretical model to explain the experimental observations. Firstly,

Auditory hair cell innervational patterns in lizards
Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1988AbstractThe pattern of afferent and efferent innervation of two to four unidirectional (UHC) and two to nine bidirectional (BHC) hair cells of five different types of lizard auditory papillae was determined by reconstruction of serial TEM sections. The species studies were Crotaphytus wislizeni (iguanid), Podarcis (Lacerta) sicula and P.

Replacement of mammalian auditory hair cells
NeuroReport, 1998We investigated the potential for hair cell regeneration in neonatal rat organs of Corti grown in culture following destruction of hair cells by neomycin toxicity. Replacement hair cells were observed by light and scanning electron microscopy in lesion sites in the cultures treated with transforming growth factor-alpha, epidermal growth factor or a ...

Auditory illusions and the single hair cell
Nature, 1993Like our other senses, the auditory system can produce illusions. Prominent among these are distortion products: when listening to two tones, one of frequency f1 and the second of a higher frequency f2, an individual may hear not only these primary tones, but also a difference tone of frequency f2 - f1, a sum tone of frequency f2 + f1, and combination ...

Quantitative studies of auditory hair cells and nerves in lizards
Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1985AbstractBecause the lizard cochlear duct is anatomically accessible as well as relatively simple in structure it is an excellent model in which to study auditory hair cells, nerve fibers, and innervational patterns. The objectives of this study were to determine the intra‐ and interspecific variations of auditory hair cell and nerve fiber numbers ...

Neurofilament proteins in avian auditory hair cells
The Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1997The distribution of middle-weight neurofilament protein (NF-M), an intermediate filament of neurons, was examined in the developing and mature avian inner ear by using immunocytochemical techniques. NF-M was detected in auditory hair cells and VIIIth cranial nerve neurons.

Apical phosphatidylserine externalization in auditory hair cells
Molecular Membrane Biology, 2007In hair cells of the inner ear, phosphatidylserine (PS), detected with fluorescent annexin V labeling, was rapidly exposed on the external leaflet of apical plasma membranes upon dissection of the organ of Corti. PS externalization was unchanged by caspase inhibition, suggesting that externalization did not portend apoptosis or necrosis.
