Transcription factor Emx2 controls stereociliary bundle orientation of sensory hair cells

open access: yeseLife, 2017
The asymmetric location of stereociliary bundle (hair bundle) on the apical surface of mechanosensory hair cells (HCs) dictates the direction in which a given HC can respond to cues such as sound, head movements, and water pressure.

Inner ear morphology in the Atlantic molly Poecilia mexicana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fishes show an amazing diversity in hearing abilities, inner ear structures, and otolith morphology. Inner ear morphology, however, has not yet been investigated in detail in any member of the diverse order Cyprinodontiformes.

Otopathologic Patterns of Cellular Degeneration in the Peripheral Vestibular Organ Secondary to Head Trauma. [PDF]

open access: yesLaryngoscope
This study examines vestibular degeneration following head trauma, comparing cases with and without fractures. Histopathological analysis of 26 temporal bones showed more severe damage in nonfracture cases, particularly in Scarpa's ganglion cells and vestibular hair cells.

HSV-1 not only in human vestibular ganglia but also in the vestibular labyrinth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Reactivation of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in the vestibular ganglion (VG) is the suspected cause of vestibular neuritis (VN). Recent studies reported the presence of HSV-1 DNA not only in human VGs but also in vestibular nuclei, a finding that ...

Morphological analysis of the vestibular system of guinea pigs poisoned by organophosphate

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2016
INTRODUCTION: The vestibular system is responsible for body balance. There are substances that damage it, causing dizziness; these are termed vestibulotoxic substances.

Matrix recruitment and calcium sequestration for spatial specific otoconia development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Otoconia are bio-crystals anchored to the macular sensory epithelium of the utricle and saccule in the inner ear for motion sensing and bodily balance. Otoconia dislocation, degeneration and ectopic calcification can have detrimental effects on balance ...

Recent and Frequent Vertigo Attacks Produce Negative Findings on Furosemide-Loading Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potential Testing in Meniere's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Objective: The peak-to-peak amplitude of the p13-n23 wave in cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential can increase after furosemide administration in patients with Meniere's disease [furosemide-loading VEMP (FVEMP) testing].
