First evolutionary insights into the human otolithic system
Communications BiologyThe human otolithic system (utricle and saccule), housed within the bony vestibule of the inner ear, establishes our sense of balance in conjunction with the semicircular canals.

Frontiers in NeurologySpontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is characterized by decreased cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume due to leakage through the dural membrane. We present the case of a patient with SIH manifested by fluctuating low-frequency hearing loss, tinnitus,

, 2004 To investigate the maturation profile of AMPA receptor subunits (GluR1-4) and the glutamate transporter (EAAC1) in saccule-related neurons within the vestibular nucleus and its subgroups, immunohistochemcial experiments were performed in Sprague-Dawleys ...

Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials: studies in a portuguese population [PDF]
, 2015 Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (VEMPs) are inhibitory electrical responses from the saccule, produced by acoustic stimulation or vibration of high intensity.

The role of saccule as an auditory organ - perception of inaudible sound-
, 2017 研究成果の概要（和文）：球形嚢の機能評価として前庭誘発筋電図（VEMP）を用いて検討した。感音難聴の程度とVEMPの異常とに関連は認めなかった。しかし、耳の違和感を訴える場合にVEMPの異常を認めるものが多かった。このことからヒトにおいて球形嚢は聴力に影響をおよぼさないが、聴覚心理学的な異常感を誘発させる可能性が示唆された。 研究成果の概要（英文）：We evaluated the function of saccule using vestibular evoked myogenic ...

Acta Medica Iranica, 2014 Vestibular involvements have long been observed in otosclerotic patients. Among vestibular structures saccule has the closest anatomical proximity to the sclerotic foci, so it is the most prone vestibular structure to be affected during the otosclerosis ...
