Ontogenetic development of inner ear hair cell organization in the New Zealand carpet shark Cephaloscyllium isabellum

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
IntroductionThe inner ear hair cells of fishes can provide insight into the early evolution of vertebrate inner ear structure. Fishes represent some of the first vertebrates to evolve auditory capacity, and the same basic structure, the sensory hair cell,

Noise-induced and age-related hearing loss:  new perspectives and potential therapies [version 1; referees: 4 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2017
The classic view of sensorineural hearing loss has been that the primary damage targets are hair cells and that auditory nerve loss is typically secondary to hair cell degeneration. Recent work has challenged that view.

The CD2 isoform of protocadherin-15 is an essential component of the tip-link complex in mature auditory hair cells

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2014
Protocadherin‐15 (Pcdh15) is a component of the tip‐links, the extracellular filaments that gate hair cell mechano‐electrical transduction channels in the inner ear.

GFI1 functions to repress neuronal gene expression in the developing inner ear hair cells

open access: yesDevelopment, 2020
Despite the known importance of the transcription factors ATOH1, POU4F3 and GFI1 in hair cell development and regeneration, their downstream transcriptional cascades in the inner ear remain largely unknown.

Aminoglycoside-induced hair cell death of inner ear organs causes functional deficits in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Aminoglycoside antibiotics, like gentamicin, kill inner ear sensory hair cells in a variety of species including chickens, mice, and humans. The zebrafish (Danio rerio) has been used to study hair cell cytotoxicity in the lateral line organs of larval ...

Auditory Hair Cell-Specific Deletion of p27Kip1 in Postnatal Mice Promotes Cell-Autonomous Generation of New Hair Cells and Normal Hearing

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2014
Hearing in mammals relies upon the transduction of sound by hair cells (HCs) in the organ of Corti within the cochlea of the inner ear. Sensorineural hearing loss is a widespread and permanent disability due largely to a lack of HC regeneration in ...

Deletion of the Notch ligand Jagged1 during cochlear maturation leads to inner hair cell defects and hearing loss

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2022
The mammalian cochlea is an exceptionally well-organized epithelium composed of hair cells, supporting cells, and innervating neurons. Loss or defects in any of these cell types, particularly the specialized sensory hair cells, leads to deafness.

Modes and Regulation of Endocytic Membrane Retrieval in Mouse Auditory Hair Cells

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2014
Synaptic vesicle recycling sustains high rates of neurotransmission at the ribbon-type active zones (AZs) of mouse auditory inner hair cells (IHCs), but its modes and molecular regulation are poorly understood.

Regeneration in the Auditory Organ in Cuban and African Dwarf Crocodiles (Crocodylus rhombifer and Osteolaemus tetraspis) Can We Learn From the Crocodile How to Restore Our Hearing?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Background: In several non-mammalian species, auditory receptors undergo cell renewal after damage. This has raised hope of finding new options to treat human sensorineural deafness.

Static length changes of cochlear outer hair cells can tune low-frequency hearing.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2018
The cochlea not only transduces sound-induced vibration into neural spikes, it also amplifies weak sound to boost its detection. Actuators of this active process are sensory outer hair cells in the organ of Corti, whereas the inner hair cells transduce ...
