Developmental changes of ENaC expression and function in the inner ear of pendrin knock-out mice as a perspective on the development of endolymphatic hydrops. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Pendrin mutations cause enlarged vestibular aqueducts and various degrees of sensorineural hearing loss. The selective abolition of pendrin causes dilation of the membranous labyrinth known as endolymphatic hydrops, loss of the endocochlear potential ...

Settlementality

open access: yesJournal of Empirical Legal Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Is settlement of civil litigation good or bad for the legal system? Should we have more or less of it? Should settlement have a private or public purpose? Legal scholars and lawyers have considered these questions for decades, but very little is known about the views of ordinary people.

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

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

Electrogenic transport and K(+) ion channel expression by the human endolymphatic sac epithelium. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The endolymphatic sac (ES) is a cystic organ that is a part of the inner ear and is connected to the cochlea and vestibule. The ES is thought to be involved in inner ear ion homeostasis and fluid volume regulation for the maintenance of hearing and ...

Morphometric study of the bony labyrinth of the inner ear in the European moles Talpa europaea, Talpa occidentalis, and Talpa aquitania

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The study investigates the shape of the semicircular canals in the inner ear of three sister mole species—Talpa europaea, Talpa aquitania, and Talpa occidentalis—using geometric morphometrics on 58 specimens. It finds both interspecific and intraspecific variability in canal morphology, but no evidence of sexual dimorphism.

NEUROSENSORY DIFFERENTIATION AND INNERVATION PATTERNING IN THE HUMAN FOETAL VESTIBULAR END ORGANS BETWEEN THE GESTATIONAL WEEKS 8 TO 12

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2016
Balance orientation depends on the precise operation of the vestibular end organs and the vestibular ganglion neurons. Previous research on the assemblage of the neuronal network in the developing foetal vestibular organ has been limited to data from ...

Comparison between ocular-evoked and cervical-evoked myogenic potentials in adults with unilateral sensorineural hearing loss

open access: yesAl-Azhar Assiut Medical Journal, 2020
Background The cochlea and the vestibule share the continuous membranous labyrinth of the inner ear. Moreover, there is great similarity between the cochlear and vestibular hair cell ultrastructures and the common arterial blood supply of the cochlea and
