Transcriptomic characterization of dying hair cells in the avian cochlea
Cell Reports, 2021 Summary: Sensory hair cells are prone to apoptosis caused by various drugs including aminoglycoside antibiotics. In mammals, this vulnerability results in permanent hearing loss because lost hair cells are not regenerated.

Hair follicle germs containing vascular endothelial cells for hair regenerative medicine
Scientific Reports, 2021 Hair regenerative medicine has emerged as a promising approach for the treatment of severe hair loss. Recent advances in three-dimensional tissue engineering, such as formation of hair follicle germs (HFGs), have considerably improved hair regeneration ...

Hair Cell Generator Potentials [PDF]
The Journal of General Physiology, 1973 A technique is introduced using a piezoelectric device to stimulate hair cells of a molluscan statocyst while recording their responses intracellularly. Statocyst displacements produced with the technique are calibrated with stroboscopic photography. Properties of the hair cells' response to currents and mechanical stimulation are studied.

Cellular glutathione content in the organ of Corti and its role during ototoxicity. [PDF]
, 2015 Glutathione (GSH) is the major scavenger of reactive oxygen species (ROS) inside cells. We used live confocal imaging in order to clarify the role of GSH in the biology of the organ of Corti, the sensory epithelium of the cochlea, before, during and ...

Hair Graying Regulators Beyond Hair Follicle
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Hair graying is an interesting physiological alteration associated with aging and certain diseases. The occurrence is due to depigmentation of the hair caused by depletion and dysfunction of melanocyte stem cells (MeSCs).

Magnetic actuation of hair cells [PDF]
Applied Physics Letters, 2011 The bullfrog sacculus contains mechanically sensitive hair cells whose stereociliary bundles oscillate spontaneously when decoupled from the overlying membrane. Steady-state offsets on the resting position of a hair bundle can suppress or modulate this native motility.

Myosin VIIA is required for aminoglycoside accumulation in cochlear hair cells. [PDF]
, 1997 Myosin VIIA is expressed by sensory hair cells and has a primary structure predicting a role in membrane trafficking and turnover, processes that may underlie the susceptibility of hair cells to aminoglycoside antibiotics. [3H]Gentamicin accumulation and

Effects of DAPT and Atoh1 overexpression on hair cell production and hair bundle orientation in cultured Organ of Corti from neonatal rats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BACKGROUND: In mammals, hair cells do not undergo spontaneous regeneration when they are damaged and result in permanent hearing loss. Previous studies in cultured Organ of Corti dissected from neonatal animals have shown that both DAPT (r-secretase ...

Mechanosensory hair cells express two molecularly distinct mechanotransduction channels
Nature Neuroscience, 2016 Auditory hair cells contain mechanotransduction channels that rapidly open in response to sound-induced vibrations. We report here that auditory hair cells contain two molecularly distinct mechanotransduction channels.
