A Rare Case of Laryngocele in a Young Omani Male

open access: yesOman Medical Journal, 2010
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.

TMC function, dysfunction, and restoration in mouse vestibular organs

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
Tmc1 and Tmc2 are essential pore-forming subunits of mechanosensory transduction channels localized to the tips of stereovilli in auditory and vestibular hair cells of the inner ear.

Midline Head Tap to Image the Human Vestibular Cortex on fMRI

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
A simple head tap can stimulate inner ear otolith organ activation. In this pilot proof‐of‐concept study, midline forehead taps were delivered in the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner to elicit an observable response in the areas most suspected of representing a vestibular cortex.

Electrical Control of the Transduction Channels’ Gating Force in Mechanosensory Hair Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
The inner ear's hair cells rely on mechanosensitive ion channels to convert vibrations of their hair‐bundle into electrical signals. We show that varying the electrical potential (U) across the sensory epithelium modulates a key determinant of mechanosensitivity—the gating force (FG)—by modulating the gating swing (d), ranging from the size of the ...

open access: yesNeural Development, 2019
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.
