The laryngeal saccule: Clinical significance [PDF]
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.

Structural and functional effects of acoustic exposure in goldfish: evidence for tonotopy in the teleost saccule [PDF]
BMC Neuroscience, 2011 Background Mammalian and avian auditory hair cells display tonotopic mapping of frequency along the length of the cochlea and basilar papilla. It is not known whether the auditory hair cells of fishes possess a similar tonotopic organization in the ...

Identification of new signaling components in the sensory epithelium of human saccule [PDF]
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 ...

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 ...

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.

Hair cell recovery in mitotically blocked cultures of the bullfrog saccule [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2000 Hair cells in many nonmammalian vertebrates are regenerated by the mitotic division of supporting cell progenitors and the differentiation of the resulting progeny into new hair cells and supporting cells.

Sound Sensitivity of the Saccule for Low Frequencies in Healthy Adults [PDF]
ISRN Otolaryngology, 2013 Approximately 80 years ago John Tait speculated about a possible auditory role for the otolith organs in humans those days, there was no direct evidence for that idea. This time is for us to review and research.

Binocular 3D otolith-ocular reflexes: responses of chinchillas to prosthetic electrical stimulation targeting the utricle and saccule [PDF]
Journal of Neurophysiology, 2019 From animal experiments by Cohen, Suzuki et al. in the 1960's to first-in-human clinical trials now in progress, prosthetic electrical stimulation targeting semicircular canal branches of the vestibular nerve has proven effective at driving directionally
