Degeneration of saccular hair cells caused by MITF gene mutation
Background Waardenburg syndrome (WS) is the consequence of an inherited autosomal dominant mutation which causes the early degeneration of intermediate cells of cochlear stria vascularis (SV) and profound hearing loss.

WHIS: Hearing impairment simulator based on the gammachirp auditory filterbank [PDF]
A new version of a hearing impairment simulator (WHIS) was implemented based on a revised version of the gammachirp filterbank (GCFB), which incorporates fast frame-based processing, absolute threshold (AT), an audiogram of a hearing-impaired (HI) listener, and a parameter to control the cochlear input-output (IO) function. The parameter referred to as

Key Genes and Pathways Associated With Inner Ear Malformation in SOX10 p.R109W Mutation Pigs
SRY-box 10 (SOX10) mutation may lead to inner ear deformities. However, its molecular mechanisms on inner ear development are not clear. In this work, the inner ear morphology was investigated at different embryonic stages of the SOX10 mutation miniature

A hypothesis study on bionic active noise reduction of auditory organs
Background Noise exposure can lead to hearing loss and multiple system dysfunctions. As various forms of noise exist in our living environments, and our auditory organs are very sensitive to acoustic stimuli, it is a challenge to protect our hearing ...

Cochlear morphology in the developing inner ear of the porcine model of spontaneous deafness
Background Auditory function and cochlear morphology have previously been described in a porcine model with spontaneous WS2-like phenotype. In the present study, cochlear histopathology was further investigated in the inner ear of the developing ...
