Winegrowers' Perceptions and Adoption of Sustainable Soil Management Practices and Technologies: A Case Study in Piedmont, Italy

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is crucial for human survival but is threatened by erosion and contamination. Farmers play a pivotal role in soil conservation, thus, understanding what influences their decisions is crucial. The IN‐GEST SOIL project aimed to mitigate soil erosion and improve soil and vine quality in Piedmont vineyards, NW Italy.

Functional anatomy of the middle and inner ears of the red fox, in comparison to domestic dogs and cats

open access: yes, 2020
Anatomical middle and inner ear parameters are often used to predict hearing sensitivities of mammalian species. Given that ear morphology is substantially affected both by phylogeny and body size, it is interesting to consider whether the relatively ...

Ultrastructure of the organ of Corti in harbor seals (Phoca vitulina)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Ultrastructural descriptions of the inner ear of highly sound-dependent mammalian species are lacking and needed to gain a better understanding of the hearing sense.

Advances in GPCRs Associated With Wnt Signaling Within the Auditory System

open access: yesMedicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) that interact with the Wnt signaling pathway are pivotal for auditory system homeostasis, as they orchestrate inner ear development, hair cell (HC) regeneration, and hearing preservation. Frizzled (FZD) receptors, the core Wnt‐related GPCRs, bind Wnt ligands and co‐receptors (e.g., LRP5/6) to activate both ...

Efficacy of three drugs for protecting against gentamicin-induced hair cell and hearing losses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSEExposure to an ototoxic level of an aminoglycoside can result in hearing loss. In this we study investigated the otoprotective efficacy of dexamethasone (DXM), melatonin (MLT) and tacrolimus (TCR) in gentamicin (GM)-treated animals ...

Retention of progenitor cell phenotype in otospheres from guinea pig and mouse cochlea

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2010
Background Culturing otospheres from dissociated organ of Corti is an appropriate starting point aiming at the development of cell therapy for hair cell loss.

Angular Insertion Depth for Cochlear Implantation: A Comparative Analysis on Precision of CT, MRI, and x‐Ray

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Personalized medicine in cochlear implantation has advanced significantly with the advent of software tools that allow for detailed analysis of cochlear anatomy. This facilitates the selection of electrode arrays tailored to the individual cochlear duct length (CDL) and supports anatomy‐based fitting strategies. Concurrently, various

A Comprehensive Three-Dimensional Model of the Cochlea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The human cochlea is a remarkable device, able to discern extremely small amplitude sound pressure waves, and discriminate between very close frequencies.

Expression of S100β during mouse cochlear development

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry
In the present study, the expression of S100β was examined in the mouse cochlea from embryonic day 17 (E17) to postnatal day 32 (P32) using immunofluorescence, aiming to explore its possible role in auditory system.

Modelling motions within the organ of Corti [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2015
Most cochlear models used to describe the basilar membrane vibration along the cochlea are concerned with macromechanics, and often assume that the organ of Corti moves as a single unit, ignoring the individual motion of different components. New experimental technologies provide the opportunity to measure the dynamic behaviour of different components ...
