Making sense of Wnt signaling—linking hair cell regeneration to development [PDF]
, 2015 Wnt signaling is a highly conserved pathway crucial for development and homeostasis of multicellular organisms. Secreted Wnt ligands bind Frizzled receptors to regulate diverse processes such as axis patterning, cell division, and cell fate specification.

Congenital CMV and Hearing Loss—How Does it Happen and How to Prevent it
Reviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 3, May 2026.ABSTRACT Congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) is found worldwide and significantly contributes to permanent childhood hearing loss. CMV has been known to cause sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) for more than half a century, and CMV‐related hearing loss has consistently been present in all childhood populations where infants with cCMV have been identified ...

Calcium functional imaging with high-resolution CT in the inner ear
Scientific Reports, 2021 Although the otolith and otolith organs correlate with vertigo and instability, there is no method to investigate them without harmful procedures. We will create the technique for 3D microanatomical images of them, and investigate the in vivo internal ...

Early synapsids neurosensory diversity revealed by CT and synchrotron scanning
The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 912-929, April 2026.Abstract Non‐mammaliaform synapsids (NMS) represent the closest relatives of today's mammals among the early amniotes. Exploring their brain and nervous system is key to understanding how mammals evolved. Here, using CT and Synchrotron scanning, we document for the first time three extreme cases of neurosensory and behavioral adaptations that probe ...

Plastin 1 widens stereocilia by transforming actin filament packing from hexagonal to liquid [PDF]
, 2016 With their essential role in inner-ear function, stereocilia of sensory hair cells demonstrate the importance of cellular actin protrusions. Actin packing in stereocilia is mediated by crosslinkers of the plastin, fascin, and espin families.

Midline Head Tap to Image the Human Vestibular Cortex on fMRI
Journal 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.

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 5, Page 1773-1787, 1 March 2026.Abstract figure legend Recent work has shown transcranial electrical stimulation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) to mitigate vestibular perceptions. Though definitive pathways require further elucidation, this interaction may be modulated by dlPFC inhibitory action on vestibular signalling in the insular cortex, thalamus and/or the ...

Efficient reconfigurable architectures for 3-D medical image compression [PDF]
, 2010 Recently, the more widespread use of three-dimensional (3-D) imaging modalities, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET), and ultrasound (US) have generated a massive amount of volumetric ...
