Generation of inner ear organoids with functional hair cells from human pluripotent stem cells
Nature Biotechnology, 2017 The derivation of human inner ear tissue from pluripotent stem cells would enable in vitro screening of drug candidates for the treatment of hearing and balance dysfunction and may provide a source of cells for cell-based therapies of the inner ear. Here

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.Objective A leading cause of death among scleroderma (SSc) patients, interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains challenging to prognosticate. The discovery of biomarkers that accurately determine which patients would benefit from close monitoring and aggressive therapy would be an essential clinical tool.

Application of Nanomedicine in Inner Ear Diseases
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022 The treatment of inner ear disorders always remains a challenge for researchers. The presence of various physiological barriers, primarily the blood–labyrinth barrier (BLB), limits the accessibility of the inner ear and hinders the efficacy of various ...

Determining the Location of GABA Receptor mRNA Transcripts in \u3cem\u3eDanio rerio\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
, 2018 -aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a neurotransmitter that has been shown to be present in the inner ear. GABA binds to two classes of GABA receptors (GABARs): GABAARs are pentameric ion channels (isoforms include: 1-6, β 1-3, 1-3, 1-3, , , and ); GABABRs ...

Electrogenic transport and K(+) ion channel expression by the human endolymphatic sac epithelium. [PDF]
, 2015 The endolymphatic sac (ES) is a cystic organ that is a part of the inner ear and is connected to the cochlea and vestibule. The ES is thought to be involved in inner ear ion homeostasis and fluid volume regulation for the maintenance of hearing and ...

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.The glomerular filtration barrier (GFB) is the first step of blood filtration by the kidneys. The concerning increase of kidney diseases makes the development of new models essential. In this context, microphysiological glomerular filtration barriers focus on closely reproducing the physiological architecture of the in vivo GFB: podocytes, glomerular ...

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.A detailed workflow for recombinant GALC production and characterization is presented to support enzyme replacement therapy for Krabbe disease. In vitro assays demonstrate that physiological GALC doses restore enzymatic activity and autophagic flux without affecting cell viability, whereas higher doses impair autophagy and reduce viability.

Inner ear pathologies impair sodium-regulated ion transport in Meniere’s disease
Acta Neuropathologica, 2018 Meniere’s disease (MD), a syndromal inner ear disease, is commonly associated with a pathological accumulation of endolymphatic fluid in the inner ear, termed “idiopathic” endolymphatic hydrops (iEH).
