Butterfly Mimicry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Butterfly mimicry is a form of protective coloration where a given species, commonly referred to as the mimic, increases its chance of survival by visually resembling a harmful species, the model, such that the receiver of the signal, the predator (e.g., birds, reptiles, or predatory insects who attack and consume butterflies), gets confused between ...

Can We Use Speaker Recognition Technology to Attack Itself? Enhancing Mimicry Attacks Using Automatic Target Speaker Selection [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
We consider technology-assisted mimicry attacks in the context of automatic speaker verification (ASV). We use ASV itself to select targeted speakers to be attacked by human-based mimicry. We recorded 6 naive mimics for whom we select target celebrities from VoxCeleb1 and VoxCeleb2 corpora (7,365 potential targets) using an i-vector system.

Lycium barbarum Glycopeptide Alleviates Neomycin‐Induced Ototoxicity by Inhibiting Tryptophan Hydroxylase‐Mediated Serotonin Biosynthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lycium barbarum glycopeptide (LBGP), which is further extracted from Lycium barbarum polysaccharides, exhibits significant protective effects against neomycin‐induced hearing dysfunction including oxidative stress in cochlea and loss of key cells in cochlea.

Inducing Mimicry Through Auditory Icons [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
This study aims to find out if periodic auditory icon loop and non-periodic auditory icon loop can induce mimicry in humans. Auditory icons are snippet of everyday sounds used to represent information or processes. A within-subject, Oz-of-Wizard experiment was conducted among forty participants.

Viral‐Mediated Connexin 26 Expression Combined with Dexamethasone Rescues Hearing in a Conditional Gjb2 Null Mice Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
AAV2.7m8 serotype combined with the gfaABC1D promoter targets infection of supporting cells (SCs). AAV2.7m8‐gfaABC1D‐Gjb2 administration to mice results in excessive immune responses. The combination of AAV2.7m8‐gfaABC1D‐Gjb2 with dexamethasone (DEX) shows a synergistic effect and enhances the gene therapy effect in a conditional Cx26 null mice model ...

Programmable NIR Responsive Nanocomposite Enables Noninvasive Intratympanic Delivery of Dexamethasone to Reverse Cisplatin Induced Hearing Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, saponin‐coated silica@gold nanocarriers responsive to NIR radiation is developed to enhance intratympanic drug delivery for cisplatin‐induced hearing loss (CIHL) treatment. The biocompatibility and oto‐protective properties are validated both in vitro and in vivo.

Two SOX11 variants cause Coffin–Siris syndrome with a new feature of sensorineural hearing loss

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 191, Issue 1, Page 183-189, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Coffin‐Siris syndrome (CSS, OMIM#135900) is a rare congenital disorder associated with neurodevelopmental and dysmorphic features. The primary cause of CSS is pathogenic variants in any of 9 BAF chromatin‐remodeling complex encoding genes or the genes SOX11 and PHF6. Herein, we performed whole‐exome sequencing (WES) and a series of analyses of
