Characterization of 3,3′-iminodipropionitrile (IDPN) damaged utricle transcriptome in the adult mouse utricle

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience
Utricle is an important vestibular sensory organ for maintaining balance. 3,3′-iminodipropionitrile (IDPN), a prototype nitrile toxin, has been reported to be neurotoxic and vestibulotoxic, and can be used to establish an in vivo damage model of ...

An abnormally large prostatic utricle cyst associated with unilateral renal agenesis

Urology Annals, 2013
Prostatic utricle cyst is an uncommon congenital disorder associated with urogenital anomalies. We present a case of an abnormally large prostatic utricle cyst filling the whole of the abdominal cavity with unilateral renal agenesis in an 8-year-old male

Unveiling Otolith Mystery: Contemporary Testing Approaches and Their Clinical Significance. [PDF]

World J Otorhinolaryngol Head Neck Surg
ABSTRACT Objective Otolith is a critical component of the peripheral vestibular system responsible for detecting linear acceleration. Dysfunction of the otolith organs can lead to vertigo, balance disturbances, and gaze instability. By elucidating the physiological foundations and evaluating both current and emerging methods for assessing otolith ...

Molecular and Cellular Hallmarks of Age-Related Vestibular Hair Cell Degeneration. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
This study utilizes single‐cell RNA‐seq transcriptomes, advanced imaging, and electrophysiology to examine universal and cell‐type‐specific aging signatures of vestibular hair cells. The study shows that impaired hair bundle function is a key driver of age‐related vestibular dysfunction.

Cell-Specific Transcriptional Responses to Heat Shock in the Mouse Utricle Epithelium

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Sensory epithelia of the inner ear contain mechanosensory hair cells (HCs) and glia-like supporting cells (SCs), both of which are required for hearing and balance functions.

Stiffening of Circumferential F-Actin Bands Correlates With Regenerative Failure and May Act as a Biomechanical Brake in the Mammalian Inner Ear

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
The loss of inner ear hair cells causes permanent hearing and balance deficits in humans and other mammals, but non-mammals recover after supporting cells (SCs) divide and replace hair cells.

Large prostatic utricle cyst [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2013
A 16-year-old boy was referred to us for management of recurrent urinary tract infection. He presented to the clinic with scrotal pain, low-grade fever and complaints of urinary frequency. Physical examination revealed a retrovesical mass. No other abnormality was found on physical examination.

Canonical Wnt Signaling Pathway on Polarity Formation of Utricle Hair Cells

Neural Plasticity, 2021
As part of the inner ear, the vestibular system is responsible for sense of balance, which consists of three semicircular canals, the utricle, and the saccule.

Urothelial carcinoma within the prostatic utricle of an adult with hypospadias and Fanconi anemia

Urology Case Reports, 2020
Prostatic utricles are rare in the general population and are often otherwise unremarkable anatomic variants. These structures are contiguous with the prostatic urethra and are nevertheless susceptible to urothelial carcinoma.
