A computer model of auditory efferent suppression: Implications for the recognition of speech in noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The neural mechanisms underlying the ability of human listeners to recognize speech in the presence of background noise are still imperfectly understood.

Looking into ‘hair tonics’ for cotton fiber initiation [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
SummaryCotton fiber is the most important source of cellulose for the global textile industry. These hair‐like single‐celled trichomes develop from ovule epidermis. They are classified into long spinnable lint and short fuzz. A key objective in the cotton industry is to breed elite cultivars with fuzzless seeds carrying high lint yield. Molecular basis

Why do axons differ in caliber? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
CNS axons differ in diameter (d) by nearly 100-fold (∼0.1-10 μm); therefore, they differ in cross-sectional area (d(2)) and volume by nearly 10,000-fold.

USAGE OF HORSE HAIR AS A TEXTILE FIBER AND EVALUATION OF COLOR PROPERTIES [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the University of Oradea: Fascicle of Textiles, Leatherwork, 2019
The usage of horse hair as a textile material can be traced to the old ages. Although many animal hair fibers have lost their importance due to the introduction of synthetic fibers into our lives, special fibers such as horsehair have been able to ...

Modeling the production of belly button lint

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
We show that respiratory cycle provides a periodic traction force for the production of belly button lint or navel fluff. The relative motion induced between clothing and skin, during breathing, transports the clothing fibers over the abdominal skin via ...

Short-term plasticity and modulation of synaptic transmission at mammalian inhibitory cholinergic olivocochlear synapses

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2014
The organ of Corti, the mammalian sensory epithelium of the inner ear, has two types of mechanoreceptor cells, inner hair cells (IHCs) and outer hair cells (OHCs).

Assembly of the Auditory Circuitry by a Hox Genetic Network in the Mouse Brainstem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Rhombomeres (r) contribute to brainstem auditory nuclei during development. Hox genes are determinants of rhombomere-derived fate and neuronal connectivity.

Effect of Human Hair on Mechanical Properties of Jute and BNH Fiber Reinforced Hybrid Polyester Composites

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2023
Natural fiber-reinforced two hybrid composites: “Jute and betel nut husk (BNH)” and “Human hair, Jute and BNH,” are fabricated by the hand lay-up method using 50:50 and 33.33:33.33:33.33 fiber ratio by weight, respectively.

Transcriptomic analysis reveals critical genes for the hair follicle of Inner Mongolia cashmere goat from catagen to telogen. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
There are two main types of hair follicle in Inner Mongolia Cashmere goats, the primary hair follicle (PHF) producing hair fibers and the secondary hair follicle (SHF) producing cashmere fibers.

Transmitter release from cochlear hair cells is phase locked to cyclic stimuli of different intensities and frequencies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The auditory system processes time and intensity through separate brainstem pathways to derive spatial location as well as other salient features of sound.
