ABSTRACT Background Mixed gonadal dysgenesis (MGD) is a rare form of differences in sex development (DSD) typically associated with 45,X/46,XY mosaicism. The phenotypic presentation of MGD varies from atypical genitalia to typical male or female appearances often associated with Turner stigmata.

Dysfunctions in hearing and balance are largely connected with hair cell (HC) loss. Although regeneration of HCs in the adult cochlea does not occur, there is still limited capacity for HC regeneration in the mammalian utricle from a distinct population ...

Auditory neuroscience: Development, transduction and integration [PDF]
Hearing underlies our ability to locate sound sources in the environment, our appreciation of music, and our ability to communicate. Participants in the National Academy of Sciences colloquium on Auditory Neuroscience: Development, Transduction, and ...

An RNA interference-based screen of transcription factor genes identifies pathways necessary for sensory regeneration in the avian inner ear [PDF]
Sensory hair cells of the inner ear are the mechano-electric transducers of sound and head motion. In mammals, damage to sensory hair cells leads to hearing or balance deficits.

Conditional and constitutive expression of a Tbx1-GFP fusion protein in mice. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Velo-cardio-facial syndrome/DiGeorge syndrome (VCFS/DGS) is caused by a 1.5-3 Mb microdeletion of chromosome 22q11.2, frequently referred to as 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS).

Canal switch after canalith repositioning procedure for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo [PDF]
Canal switch is a complication following canalith repositioning procedure (CRP) for posterior canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Instead of being returned to the utricle, the loose otoconia migrate into the superior or horizontal ...

TMC function, dysfunction, and restoration in mouse vestibular organs
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.

Micromotional studies of utricular and canal afferents [PDF]
The long-range goal of this research was to refine our understanding of the sensitivity of the vestibular components of the ear to very-low-amplitude motion, especially, the role of gravity in this sensitivity.

Stereociliary Myosin-1c Receptors Are Sensitive to Calcium Chelation and Absent from Cadherin 23 Mutant Mice [PDF]
The identities of some of the constituents of the hair-cell transduction apparatus have been elucidated only recently. The molecular motor myosin-1c (Myo1c) functions in adaptation of the hair-cell response to sustained mechanical stimuli and is ...

PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS FROM THE ADULT MOUSE UTRICLE
Researchers discovered that cochlear epithelia in mice especially the vestibular one, contains stem cells that have the capacity to differentiate in sensorial auditory hair cell progenitors specific to the organ.
