Epithelial cell stretching and luminal acidification lead to a retarded development of stria vascularis and deafness in mice lacking pendrin. [PDF]
Loss-of-function mutations of SLC26A4/pendrin are among the most prevalent causes of deafness. Deafness and vestibular dysfunction in the corresponding mouse model, Slc26a4(-/-), are associated with an enlargement and acidification of the membranous ...

Tmc Reliance Is Biased by the Hair Cell Subtype and Position Within the Ear
Hair cells are heterogenous, enabling varied roles in sensory systems. An emerging hypothesis is that the transmembrane channel-like (Tmc) proteins of the hair cell’s mechanotransduction apparatus vary within and between organs to permit encoding of ...

Rapid Postmortem Temporal Bone Extraction and Dissection of Human Inner Ear Organs From Organ Donors
We developed a postmortem protocol for temporal bone extraction and dissection in organ donors, enabling atraumatic bilateral temporal bone retrieval within 1–2 h of ischemia, followed by stepwise microsurgical dissection of neurosensory organs. Combining rapid extraction, abbreviated decalcification, and atraumatic microsurgical dissection, this ...

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

Molecular Biomarkers in Meniere's Disease: A Scoping Review of Current Evidence
Abstract Objective Meniere's disease is a complex chronic inner ear condition that is characterized by vertigo, tinnitus, aural fullness, and progressive hearing loss. Currently, diagnostic strategies remain symptom‐driven, and treatments focus on management of discrete episodes rather than targeting underlying pathophysiology.

There is little information available on the susceptibility of reptilian saccule hair cells to ototoxin-induced sensory damage. In this study, we report morphological evidence of hair cell recovery and regeneration after damage induced by gentamicin in ...

Inner ear morphology in the Atlantic molly Poecilia mexicana - first detailed microanatomical study of the inner ear of a cyprinodontiform species [PDF]
Background: 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.

Primary Aspergillosis of Bilateral Laryngoceles
Laryngocele is an abnormal dilatation of the saccule of laryngeal ventricle, which is usually unilateral and filled with air or fluid. We present a case of bilateral laryngoceles colonized by Aspergillus species.
