Advanced Science, EarlyView.Comparative cochlear transcriptomics of noise‐exposed bats (Miniopterus fuliginosus) and mice reveals bat‐specific protection mechanisms for noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL), identifying Hras as a key hub regulator. Functional studies in mice show hair‐cell‐specific Hras overexpression significantly reduced hair‐cell damage and NIHL by activating the ...

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2019 Cochlear duct length (CDL) measurement or estimation is a hot topic for various research groups in the cochlear implant (CI) field as of today. Getting the CDL along the outer wall (LW) and organ of corti (OC) is possible but considering the clinical ...

Speech Recognition with Cochlea‐Inspired In‐Sensor Computing
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Traditional speech recognition methods rely on software‐based feature extraction that introduces latency and high energy costs, making them unsuitable for low‐power devices. A proof‐of‐concept demonstration is provided of a bioinspired tonotopic sensor for speech recognition that mimics the human cochlea, using a spiral‐shaped elastic metamaterial. The

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.Physical stimulation strategies have emerged as a therapeutic avenue for the regeneration of spiral ganglion neurons. This review explores diverse physical stimulation modalities—including topographical modulation, electrical stimulation, and photostimulation—each operating through distinct mechanisms to regulate SGN biological behavior. By elucidating

Organ of Corti and Stria Vascularis: Is there an Interdependence for Survival?
PLoS ONE, 2016 Cochlear hair cells and the stria vascularis are critical for normal hearing. Hair cells transduce mechanical stimuli into electrical signals, whereas the stria is responsible for generating the endocochlear potential (EP), which is the driving force for

Variability of jaw muscles in Tunisian street dogs and adaptation to skull shape
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The impact of artificial selection on the masticatory apparatus of dogs has been poorly studied, and comparative data with dogs subjected to more natural constraints are lacking. This study explores the jaw musculature of Tunisian street dogs, which are largely free from the influence of breed‐specific selection.

Deficiency of angulin-2/ILDR1, a tricellular tight junction-associated membrane protein, causes deafness with cochlear hair cell degeneration in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Tricellular tight junctions seal the extracellular spaces of tricellular contacts, where the vertices of three epithelial cells meet, and are required for the establishment of a strong barrier function of the epithelial cellular sheet.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Targeted deletion of Sox10 by Wnt1-cre defects neuronal migration and projection in the mouse inner ear. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Sensory nerves of the brainstem are mostly composed of placode-derived neurons, neural crest-derived neurons and neural crest-derived Schwann cells. This mixed origin of cells has made it difficult to dissect interdependence for fiber guidance. Inner ear-

Intraspecific variation of cochlear morphology in bowhead and beluga whales
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The bony labyrinth of the petrosal bone, a distinctive feature of mammal skulls, is often identified in micro‐computed tomography imaging to infer species' physiological and ecological traits. When done as part of a comparative study, one individual specimen is normally considered representative of a species, and intraspecific variation is ...
