Abstract We review our approach for undertaking microelectrode recordings from the posterior tibial nerve at the ankle, which has allowed us to identify, for the first time, the firing properties of muscle spindle endings in the intrinsic muscles of the foot and of cutaneous mechanoreceptors in the sole during unsupported standing.

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 ...

Seagrass can mitigate negative ocean acidification effects on calcifying algae [PDF]
The ultimate effect that ocean acidification (OA) and warming will have on the physiology of calcifying algae is still largely uncertain. Responses depend on the complex interactions between seawater chemistry, global/local stressors and species-specific

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.

Differentiation of mammalian vestibular hair cells from conditionally immortal, postnatal supporting cells [PDF]
We provide evidence from a newly established, conditionally immortal cell line (UB/UE-1) that vestibular supporting cells from the mammalian inner ear can differentiate postnatally into more than one variant of hair cell.

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.

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.

Investigations of the Microvasculature of the Human Macula Utricle in Meniere’s Disease
The integrity and permeability of the blood labyrinthine barrier (BLB) in the inner ear is important to maintain adequate blood supply, and to control the passage of fluids, molecules and ions.

Otolith responses to dynamical stimuli: results of a numerical investigation [PDF]
.: To investigate the dynamic effects of external forces on the displacement of the otolith membrane and subsequent neuronal responses of otoliths, we performed numerical analyses of otolith membrane displacements.
