Directional sensitivity of hair cells (HCs) is conferred by the aymmetric apical hair bundle, comprised of a kinocilium and stereocilia staircase. The mother centriole (MC) forms the base of the kinocilium and the stereocilia develop adjacent to it ...

Genetic Hearing Loss Associated With Autoinflammation
Sensorineural hearing loss can result from dysfunction of the inner ear, auditory nerve, or auditory pathways in the central nervous system. Sensorineural hearing loss can be associated with age, exposure to ototoxic drugs or noise, or mutations in ...

Synaptic mitochondria regulate hair-cell synapse size and function
Sensory hair cells in the ear utilize specialized ribbon synapses. These synapses are defined by electron-dense presynaptic structures called ribbons, composed primarily of the structural protein Ribeye.

Function of bidirectional sensitivity in the otolith organs established by transcription factor Emx2
The inner ear is highly organized, with distinct domains being located across the Line of Polarity Reversal (LPR). Here they show that Emx2 establishes the LPR and bidirectional selectivity of otolith organs, and that loss of the LPR in mice affects ...

Cisplatin is retained in the cochlea indefinitely following chemotherapy
Permanent hearing loss occurs in many cancer patients treated with cisplatin. In this study, the authors examine cisplatin pharmacokinetics in the cochleae of mice and humans showing that cisplatin is retained for months to years after treatment.
