Semicircular canal system in early primates

open access: yesJournal of Human Evolution, 2009
Mammals with more rapid and agile locomotion have larger semicircular canals relative to body mass than species that move more slowly. Measurements of semicircular canals in extant mammals with known locomotor behaviours can provide a basis for testing hypotheses about locomotion in fossil primates that is independent of postcranial remains, and a ...

Size, not phylogeny, explains the morphology of the endosseous labyrinth in the crown clade Crocodylia

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 558-574, April 2025.
Here, we present the most complete dataset to date on the endosseous labyrinths of extant crocodylians. Using 3D geometric morphometrics, we show that allometry constitutes a major contributor of the shape variation of the crocodylian endosseous labyrinths and that the development of this structure is likely linked to the braincase conformation, in all

A late role for bmp2b in the morphogenesis of semicircular canal ducts in the zebrafish inner ear.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BackgroundThe Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP) genes bmp2 and bmp4 are expressed in highly conserved patterns in the developing vertebrate inner ear. It has, however, proved difficult to elucidate the function of BMPs during ear development as mutations ...

Osteohistology of the unusually fast‐growing theropod dinosaur Ceratosaurus

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We report the histology of multiple elements attributed to four individuals of Ceratosaurus. We find that the histology and growth models corroborate previous reports of rapid tissue growth in the genus. Abstract Ceratosaurus is a large‐bodied non‐avian theropod dinosaur known from the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation of North America and is ...

Vestibular implantation and longitudinal electrical stimulation of the semicircular canal afferents in human subjects.

open access: yesJournal of Neurophysiology, 2015
Animal experiments and limited data in humans suggest that electrical stimulation of the vestibular end organs could be used to treat loss of vestibular function.

Síndrome da deiscência do canal semicircular superior: A propósito de dois casos clínicos.

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa Otorrinolaringologia e Cirurgia de Cabeça e Pescoço, 2011
A Síndrome da Deiscência do Canal Semicircular Superior (SDCSS) caracteriza-se por sintomas vestibulares induzidos por estímulos sonoros intensos (Fenómeno de Tullio) ou por variações da pressão intracraniana ou ouvido médio, e por hipoacusia de ...

Semicircular canal morphology in Rodentia and its relationship to locomotion

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Here, we present a selection of rodent inner ear 3D models in the lateral view, with rodents from seven locomotor categories (left to right: fossorial, semifossorial, semiaquatic, terrestrial, ricochetal, arboreal, and gliding). Semicircular canal (SCC) morphology, including radius of curvature and shape, can be differentiated between specialized forms
