Striatin Is Required for Hearing and Affects Inner Hair Cells and Ribbon Synapses

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Striatin, a subunit of the serine/threonine phosphatase PP2A, is a core member of the conserved striatin-interacting phosphatase and kinase (STRIPAK) complexes. The protein is expressed in the cell junctions between epithelial cells, which play a role in

Dynamic assembly of ribbon synapses and circuit maintenance in a vertebrate sensory system [PDF]

open access: yes
Ribbon synapses transmit information in sensory systems, but their development is not well understood. To test the hypothesis that ribbon assembly stabilizes nascent synapses, we performed simultaneous time-lapse imaging of fluorescently-tagged ribbons ...

Relating structure and function of inner hair cell ribbon synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the mammalian cochlea, sound is encoded at synapses between inner hair cells (IHCs) and type I spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs). Each SGN receives input from a single IHC ribbon-type active zone (AZ) and yet SGNs indefatigably spike up to hundreds of Hz

Modes of Vesicle Retrieval at Ribbon Synapses, Calyx-Type Synapses, and Small Central Synapses [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2007
### Introduction Endocytosis is essential for the maintenance of synaptic transmission because it recycles and thus prevents complete depletion of synaptic vesicles in the nerve terminal. The goal of understanding synaptic vesicle recycling mechanisms was launched in earnest in 1973 when ...

Continuous and Transient Vesicle Cycling at a Ribbon Synapse [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 1998
Optical methods were used to study the Ca2+dependence of vesicle cycling in bipolar cells isolated from goldfish retinas. Uniformly raising the Ca2+concentration to between 0.8 and 20 μmproduced a continuous vesicle cycle of balanced exocytosis and endocytosis with a maximum rate equivalent to the turnover of the entire surface membrane of a terminal ...

Axonal synapses utilize multiple synaptic ribbons in the mammalian retina. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In the mammalian retina, bipolar cells and ganglion cells which stratify in sublamina a of the inner plexiform layer (IPL) show OFF responses to light stimuli while those that stratify in sublamina b show ON responses.

Remote Monitoring in Myasthenia Gravis: Exploring Symptom Variability

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare, autoimmune disorder characterized by fluctuating muscle weakness and potential life‐threatening crises. While continuous specialized care is essential, access barriers often delay timely interventions. To address this, we developed MyaLink, a telemedical platform for MG patients.

Association of intracellular and synaptic organization in cochlear inner hair cells revealed by 3D electron microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The ways in which cell architecture is modelled to meet cell function is a poorly understood facet of cell biology. To address this question, we have studied the cytoarchitecture of a cell with highly specialised organisation, the cochlear inner hair ...

Multi‐Scale Interface Engineering of MXenes for Multifunctional Sensory Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
MXenes, as two‐dimensional transition metal carbides and nitrides, demonstrate remarkable capabilities for multifunctional sensing applications. This review systematically examines multi‐scale interface engineering approaches that enhance sensing performance, enable diverse detection functionalities, and improve system‐level compatibility in MXene ...
