Degeneration of saccular hair cells caused by MITF gene mutation
Background Waardenburg syndrome (WS) is the consequence of an inherited autosomal dominant mutation which causes the early degeneration of intermediate cells of cochlear stria vascularis (SV) and profound hearing loss.

Abstract An ultrastructural morphometric analysis of the postnatal development of the lung in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica) has been conducted to evaluate the morphofunctional status of this poorly developed marsupial lung immediately following parturition.

Fulminant brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome in a 3‐month‐old French bulldog
Abstract A 3‐month‐old, entire, female French bulldog (6.4 kg) presented in severe respiratory distress with hyperthermia and cyanosis. Laryngeal examination revealed severe obstruction by oedematous tissue, later confirmed as bilaterally everted laryngeal saccules; the airway was stabilised by tracheal intubation.

Molecular and Cellular Hallmarks of Age‐Related Vestibular Hair Cell Degeneration
This study utilizes single‐cell RNA‐seq transcriptomes, advanced imaging, and electrophysiology to examine universal and cell‐type‐specific aging signatures of vestibular hair cells. The study shows that impaired hair bundle function is a key driver of age‐related vestibular dysfunction.

Background The aqeductus vestibuli (aqueduct) is believed to connect to the saccule in embryos and adults. However, in embryos, the saccule and utricle are known to communicate widely to provide a common endolymph space “atrium”.

Expression of insulin signalling components in the sensory epithelium of the human saccule.
Several studies have demonstrated a link between diabetes and the dysfunction of the inner ear. Few studies, however, have reported the signalling mechanisms involved in metabolic control in human inner ear cells.

A Rare Case of Laryngocele in a Young Omani Male
Laryngocele is a cystic dilatation of the laryngeal saccule. The saccule presents as a diverticulum from the anterior end of the ventricle and extends upwards between the vestibular fold and the inner aspect of the thyroid cartilage.

Gentamicin treatment increases the numbers of TUNEL-labeled cells in the adult saccule.
Adult wildtype zebrafish received either a single intraperitoneal injection of (A, C, D, E) buffer or (B, F, G, H) 250 mg/kg gentamicin and allowed to recover for either 4 or 24 hours (4 hour data is shown).

Quantification of hair cell number, ribeye b and nuclei in the zebrafish inner ear endorgans
<p>The three otolithic endorgans of the inner ear are known to be involved in sound detection in different teleost fishes, yet their relative roles for auditory-vestibular functions within the same species remain unclear.
