Substance P in the Auditory Hair Cells in the Guinea Pig
ORL, 2010Previous immunohistochemical and electrophysiological studies on various neurotransmitters revealed the tachykinin substance P (SP) as a neuromodulator in the auditory system of mammals. This study was performed in order to determine the immunohistochemical expression and distribution pattern of SP in the organ of Corti, especially in the inner (IHC ...

Auditory Hair Cells and Sensory Transduction
2017Abstract The organs of the vertebrate inner ear respond to a variety of mechanical stimuli: semicircular canals are sensitive to angular velocity, the saccule and utricle respond to linear acceleration (including gravity), and the cochlea is sensitive to airborne vibration, or sound.

Auditory amplification: outer hair cells pres the issue
Trends in Neurosciences, 2003Active feedback mechanisms in the ears of mammals amplify and tune the auditory response to sound stimuli, allowing these organisms to enjoy both exquisite sensitivity and sharp frequency selectivity. A requisite component of this feedback pathway has recently been identified.

Auditory collusion and a coupled couple of outer hair cells
Nature, 1999The discrepancies between measured frequency responses of the basilar membrane in the inner ear and the frequency tuning found in psychophysical experiments led to Bekesy's idea of lateral inhibition in the auditory nervous system. We now know that basilar membrane tuning can account for neural tuning, and that sharpening of the passive travelling wave

Tonotopic Specialization of MYO7A Isoforms in Auditory Hair Cells
1. Abstract Mutations in Myo7a cause Usher syndrome type 1B and non-syndromic deafness, but the precise function of MYO7A in sensory hair cells remains unclear. We identify and characterize a novel isoform, MYO7A-N, expressed in auditory hair cells alongside the ...Sihan Li +5 more
