Presbycusis: Pathology, Signal Pathways, and Therapeutic Strategy
Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 29, August 7, 2025.In ARHL, the stria vascularis, acting as a cochlear battery, gradually loses its ability to maintain the endocochlear potential, leading to impaired hair cell function and progressive hearing loss. Single‐cell sequencing reveals age‐related cellular changes in the cochlea, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of aging and potential ...

Operant conditioning in the Mongolian gerbil [PDF]
Psychonomic Science, 1969 Mongolian gerbils learned to press a response button to obtain food reward. Responding under three reinforcement schedules was then observed: first, reinforcement occurred after every response; responding was then reinforced on a 15-sec variable-interval schedule; finally, responding was reinforced on a 1-min variable interval.

Aggressive Behavior, Volume 51, Issue 4, July 2025.ABSTRACT Neural bases of aggression have been analysed mainly in rodent males, finding that the medial preoptic area (mPOA), bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH), anterior hypothalamus (AHN), and medial amygdala (MeA) integrate the core aggression circuit.

Density of dopaminergic fibres in the prefrontal cortex of gerbils is sensitive to aging
Behavioral and Brain Functions, 2007 Mesencephalic dopamine (DA) projections are essential for cognitive and behavioral functions and believed to play a critical role during development and aging.

Emerging Therapeutic Strategies for Hearing Loss
Advanced Therapeutics, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2025.Challenges still exist in treating hearing loss in cases of severe damage to hair cells or spiral ganglion neurons. Here, a schematic diagram of cochlear sensory hair cells and auditory nerves is presented. It is found that in normal Corti organs, hair cells have upright stereocilia at the top and auditory neurons at the base. Ototoxic drugs, noise, or

Micro‐CT Analysis of Rodent Temporal Bones: Identifying Optimal Species for Otological Research
Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 10, Issue 3, June 2025.ABSTRACT Objectives Rodents are used in most otological research studies and the choice of the most appropriate animal model may be crucial in studies of ear diseases and in the development of effective treatments. Here, we used micro‐CT to compare temporal bone anatomy between four rodent model animals (guinea pigs, gerbils, rats, and mice) and humans,
