Hair Cells in Mammalian Utricles

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1998
Two morphological classes of mechanosensory cells have been described in the vestibular organs of mammals, birds, and reptiles: type I and type II hair cells. Type II hair cells resemble hair cells in other organs in that they receive bouton terminals from primary afferent neurons.

Using the term utricle

Journal of Paleontology, 1992
Certain groups of living Chlorophyta (green algae) have thalli made up of long, tubular cells with many nuclei and many plastids (Tappan, 1980; Bold and Wynne, 1985). The only cross walls in these coenocytes are those that isolate the gamete-producing structures. As the coenocytes approach the edges of the thallus, they branch, generally dichotomously,

Action Potential of Isolated Frog Utricle

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1983
The action potential of an isolated frog utricle was recorded using a suction electrode. The utricle was stimulated with iron sand which were spread evenly on the macula. A magnetic force was employed to induce the iron sand to depress the macula lightly.

Surgical management of enlarged prostatic utricle

Pediatric Surgery International, 2000
The prostatic utricle (PU), or prostatic pouch, is a rudimentary structure present in the male prostatic urethra, and is derived from both the müllerian and wolffian ducts. As the PU is of mixed origin, a patient with an enlarged utricle should be carefully examined to ascertain whether it is associated with female internal organs.

Endometrial Carcinoma of the Prostatic Utricle

Prostatic Utricle: An Unusual Case Report

European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1994
A 3-year-old white patient was hospitalized for the second recurrence of an epididymitis but this time with a left scrotal abscess. He was known to have a perineoscrotal hypospadias associated with bilateral undescended testis. Cystoscopy with cytourethrography releaved the presence of a "prostatic utricle".

Prostatic Utricle Cysts (Müllerian Duct Cysts)

Journal of Urology, 1978
A series of 88 male patients with prostatic utricle cysts (müllerian duct) has been compiled by adding our 3 patients to 85 cases reported. Irritative lower urinary tract symptoms were the most common presenting complaint (42 per cent), while lower obstructive symptoms were noted in 29 per cent.

Excision of Prostatic Utricle

2013
A prostatic utricle is a congenital outpouching of the prostatic urethra. Signs, symptoms, and indications for surgical intervention include hematuria, pseudo-incontinence from urine trapping within the utricle, lower urinary tract symptoms, recurrent urinary tract infections, and stone formation within the pouch.

Transepithelial cation movements in gerbil utricles

American Journal of Otolaryngology, 1985
The inner ear epithelium secretes potassium (K+) and absorbs sodium (Na+). The authors' experiments utilized, for the first time, isolation of the nonsensory from the sensory regions of the utricle in the vestibular labyrinth of the gerbil by means of injecting insulating seals. It was found that the isolated nonsensory region accumulated rubidium (Rb+)

Endometrial carcinoma of prostatic utricle

Urology, 1977
Abstract We present the case history of an eighty-year-old man with endometrial carcinoma of the prostatic utricle and review the literature on this neoplasm, paying particular attention to the histopathologic controversy it has generated.
