LRRC8A Regulates Outer Hair Cell Volume and Electromotility and is Required for Hearing
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identifies LRRC8A‐dependent volume‐regulated anion channels (VRACs) as essential for cochlear outer hair cells' electromotility and auditory signal amplification. LRRC8A deficiency disrupts cell volume control, impairs auditory sensitivity, and causes deafness, while targeted LRRC8A re‐expression restores auditory function.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Lynch et al., identified novel targets on the wake‐promoting pathways that can effectively treat pain‐induced sleep disturbances. The authors demonstrated that Calcitonin gene‐related peptide‐expressing neurons (CGRP) in the external lateral parabrachial nucleus (PBelCGRP) serve as the primary relay node for pain stimuli that cause sleep disruption ...
