GPR156 is required in sensory hair cells for proper auditory and vestibular function

open access: yesScientific Reports
Proper orientation of the apical cytoskeleton in auditory and vestibular hair cells is essential for their sensory function. A recently identified regulator of hair cell orientation is the G protein-coupled receptor GPR156, which signals through ...

Pvalb8, a Type of Oncomodulin, Regulates Neuromast Development and Auditory Function in Zebrafish

open access: yesCells
Congenital hearing loss, frequently resulting from defective hair cells, remains poorly understood due to the incomplete identification of key pathogenic genes. Oncomodulin (OCM) is a kind of calcium-binding protein (CaBP) that regulates diverse cellular

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.

Predicting cochlear structural alterations from auditory function in age‐related hearing loss mice based on optical coherence tomography

open access: yesJournal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract With global population aging, age‐related hearing loss has become a major public health concern. Understanding the relationship between auditory functional decline and cochlear structural degeneration is essential for early detection and precise intervention.

Beyond Skin and Eyes: The Medical and Social Burden of Oculocutaneous Albinism in Africa: A Narrative Review

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is a genetic disorder found worldwide, but its impact is particularly pronounced in the African continent. This results from both a higher prevalence and the persistent myths and superstitions surrounding the condition in many African communities.

Radiotherapy‐Induced Otitis Media With Effusion in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This meta‐analysis of eight studies comprising 582 NPC patients provides the first quantitative synthesis of radiotherapy‐induced otitis media with effusion (OME), demonstrating a significant overall risk difference of 0.18 (95% CI: −0.06 to 0.42, p < 0.0001) in OME naive ears.

Greater Cochlear Damage in Otogenic Versus Meningogenic Meningitis: Hearing Rehabilitation Implications

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Otogenic route of meningitis was associated with greater cochlear hair cell loss in comparison with the meningogenic one in this otopathology study. Neuronal depletion has been traditionally implicated in failed hearing rehabilitation of post‐meningitis deafness.
