Revival of traditional agricultural systems – A multidisciplinary on‐farm survey of maize‐bean intercropping reveals unexpected competition effects on beans

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cereal‐legume intercropping is a promising strategy for sustainable agroecosystems, leveraging the biological complementarities between plant species to reduce the need for inputs while enhancing field biodiversity. Here, we focused on maize‐bean intercropping, which is experiencing a revival in conventional agricultural settings.

Expression of S100β during mouse cochlear development

European 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.

Static length changes of cochlear outer hair cells can tune low-frequency hearing.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2018
The cochlea not only transduces sound-induced vibration into neural spikes, it also amplifies weak sound to boost its detection. Actuators of this active process are sensory outer hair cells in the organ of Corti, whereas the inner hair cells transduce ...

Update on Gene Therapy in the Treatment of Hereditary Hearing Loss

Sensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
Gene therapy is a promising therapeutic approach for genetic disorders, including three major gene therapy strategies: gene replacement, gene suppression, and gene editing. After transmitting genes to the inner ear through appropriate pathways, repair the cochlea in order to achieve the goal of treating hereditary hearing loss.

Six1 is essential for differentiation and patterning of the mammalian auditory sensory epithelium.

PLoS Genetics, 2017
The organ of Corti in the cochlea is a two-cell layered epithelium: one cell layer of mechanosensory hair cells that align into one row of inner and three rows of outer hair cells interdigitated with one cell layer of underlying supporting cells along ...

A Multipotent Precursor Approach for the Preparation of High‐Molecular Weight Conjugated Polymers with Redox Active Units

Small Methods, EarlyView.
A versatile precursor approach enables the synthesis of high‐molecular‐weight conjugated polymers with tunable electronic properties from a single dihydroanthracene‐based scaffold. Post‐polymerization transformations afford distinct materials incorporating anthracene or anthraquinone units.

MiR-210 promotes sensory hair cell formation in the organ of corti

BMC Genomics, 2016
Hearing loss is the most common sensory defect afflicting several hundred million people worldwide. In most cases, regardless of the original cause, hearing loss is related to the degeneration and death of hair cells and their associated spiral ganglion ...

Chinese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Auditory Neuropathy (gCAN)

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Auditory neuropathy (AN) is an auditory disorder that affects the function of the auditory pathway. An increasing number of AN cases have been identified with the revelation of the underlying mechanisms, the advancements of diagnostic and detecting techniques.

Simvastatin protects auditory hair cells from gentamicin-induced toxicity and activates Akt signaling in vitro

BMC Neuroscience, 2011
Background Inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase, known as statins, are commonly used as cholesterol-lowering drugs. During the past decade, evidence has emerged that statins also have neuroprotective effects.

Dye coupling in the organ of Corti

Cell and Tissue Research, 1986
Dye-coupling in an in vitro preparation of the supporting cells of the guinea-pig organ of Corti was evaluated by use of the fluorescent dyes, Lucifer Yellow, fluorescein and 6 carboxyfluorescein. Despite the presence of good electrical coupling in Hensen cells (coupling ratios greater than 0.6) the spread of Lucifer yellow was inconsistent.
