Effects of lesions of the organ of corti on hearing [PDF]
Lesions causing changes in the microstructure of the organ of Corti may lead to hearing impairment.The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of various structural lesions on the organ of Corti and the auditory function.A finite element method of the cochlea and the organ of Corti were established based on computed tomography scanning and ...

The signals that induce the organ of Corti and define its boundaries in the cochlea are poorly understood. We show that two Notch modifiers, Lfng and Mfng, are transiently expressed precisely at the neural boundary of the organ of Corti.

Microstructural interactions contribute to the hotspot in the living cochlea
The mechanism of the active cochlea relies on a complex interaction between microstructures in the organ of Corti. A significant longitudinal vibration “hotspot” was recently observed in the high-frequency region of the living gerbil cochlea between the ...

Tonotopically arranged traveling waves in the miniature hearing organ of bushcrickets
Place based frequency discrimination (tonotopy) is a fundamental property of the coiled mammalian cochlea. Sound vibrations mechanically conducted to the hearing organ manifest themselves into slow moving waves that travel along the length of the organ ...

Molecular and Cellular Hallmarks of Age‐Related Vestibular Hair Cell Degeneration
This study utilizes single‐cell RNA‐seq transcriptomes, advanced imaging, and electrophysiology to examine universal and cell‐type‐specific aging signatures of vestibular hair cells. The study shows that impaired hair bundle function is a key driver of age‐related vestibular dysfunction.

Inner ear hair cells deteriorate in mice engineered to have no or diminished innervation.
The innervation of the inner ear critically depends on the two neurotrophins Ntf3 and Bdnf. In contrast to this molecularly well established dependency, evidence regarding the need of innervation for long-term maintenance of inner ear hair cells is ...
