Emerging Therapeutic Strategies for Hearing Loss

Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
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

Presbycusis: Pathology, Signal Pathways, and Therapeutic Strategy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
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 ...

Superelastic and Ultra‐Soft MXene/CNF Aerogel@PDMS‐Based Dual‐Modal Pressure Sensor for Complex Stimuli Monitoring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A triboelectric‐piezoresistive dual‐modal pressure sensor based on superelastic and ultrasoft MXene/cellulose nanofiber (CNF) aerogel@PDMS is fabricated. The sensor exhibits high sensitivity and stable sensing performance via a dual mechanism. Through the effective combination of these two mechanisms, comprehensive monitoring of complex stimuli can be ...

Kinetically Limited Growth of Dendritic Tin Oxide Thin Films: a Machine Learning Study beyond the Structure Zone Diagram

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a critical evaluation of the empirical Thornton's structure zone diagram, a cornerstone in predicting thin film microstructure. Through transmission electron microscopy, we observe that Sn─O thin films form nanosized dendrites, which are not expected according to the structure zone diagram.
