Acoustic Sensitivity of the Saccule and Daf Music [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2014 Introduction: The daf is a large Persian frame drum used as a musical instrument in both popular and classical music which can induce a percussive sound at low frequencies (146–290 Hz) with peaks of up to 130 dBspl.

Identification of new signaling components in the sensory epithelium of human saccule
Frontiers in Neurology, 2011 Objective: To locate components and target proteins of relevance for the cAMP and cGMP signaling networks including cAMP and cGMP phosphodiesterases (PDEs), salt-inducible kinases (SIKs), subunits of N+, K+-ATPases and aquaporins (AQPs) in the human ...

The laryngeal saccule: Clinical significance
Clinical Anatomy, 2011 AbstractThe association between the laryngeal saccule and a laryngocele is an important clinical relationship. Here, we describe this and other clinical correlations of the saccule including infection and carcinoma and suggest that these should be discussed in medical gross anatomy courses.

Hair Cell Heterogeneity in the Goldfish Saccule [PDF]
Brain, Behavior and Evolution, 1995 A set of cytological studies performed in the utricle and saccule of Astronotus ocellatus (Teleostei, Percomorphi, Cichlidae) identified two basic types of hair cells and others with some intermediate characteristics. This paper reports on applying the same techniques to the saccule of Carassius auratus (Teleostei, Otophysi, Cyprinidae) and ...

Multifunctional redox modulator prevents blast-induced loss of cochlear and vestibular hair cells and auditory spiral ganglion neurons [PDF]
Scientific ReportsBlast wave exposure, a leading cause of hearing loss and balance dysfunction among military personnel, arises primarily from direct mechanical damage to the mechanosensory hair cells and supporting structures or indirectly through excessive oxidative ...
