Presbycusis: Pathology, Signal Pathways, and Therapeutic Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In ARHL, the stria vascularis, acting as a cochlear battery, gradually loses its ability to maintain the endocochlear potential, leading to impaired hair cell function and progressive hearing loss. Single‐cell sequencing reveals age‐related cellular changes in the cochlea, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of aging and potential ...

Renal handling of potassium in dogs with chronic renal insufficiency

open access: yesKidney International, 1981
The dynamics of potassium excretion were examined in normal dogs and dogs with chronic renal insufficiency of at least 4 weeks' duration (remnant model). All animals, in balance on diets providing 15, 50, or 100 mEq of potassium and 100 mEq of sodium, were challenged with 50 mEq of potassium chloride.
