Small Extracellular Vesicles Orchestrate Cisplatin‐Induced Ototoxicity: Potential Biomarker and Targets Discovery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cisplatin causes reactive oxygen species accumulation, leading to apoptosis and inflammation in cochlear hair cells. Small extracellular vesicles primarily derived from the damaged hair cells likely contribute to cisplatin‐induced ototoxicity, carrying a variety of microRNAs and proteins.

Early synapsids neurosensory diversity revealed by CT and synchrotron scanning

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Non‐mammaliaform synapsids (NMS) represent the closest relatives of today's mammals among the early amniotes. Exploring their brain and nervous system is key to understanding how mammals evolved. Here, using CT and Synchrotron scanning, we document for the first time three extreme cases of neurosensory and behavioral adaptations that probe ...

Acoustic schwannoma of traumatic origin? A temporal bone study [PDF]

, 2017
A tumour of the singular nerve was found on examination of the temporal bones of a child who died 13 months after meningitis. The tumour consisted of a main mass with the appearance of an acoustic neuroma but close by and not connected were some nests of

Predicting ecology and hearing sensitivities in Parapontoporia—An extinct long‐snouted dolphin

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Analyses of the cetacean (whale and dolphin) inner ear provide glimpses into the ecology and evolution of extinct and extant groups. The paleoecology of the long‐snouted odontocete (toothed whale) group, Parapontoporia, is primarily marine with its depositional context also suggesting freshwater tolerance.

Physical and geometric constraints explain the labyrinth-like shape of the nasal cavity

, 2017
The nasal cavity is a vital component of the respiratory system that heats and humidifies inhaled air in all vertebrates. Despite this common function, the shapes of nasal cavities vary widely across animals.

Vestibular evoked myogenic potential: we propose a new instrument

International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2010
Introduction: Currently, there is still no specific instrument for assessment of vestibular evoked myogenic potentials, with the same performed by a device designed to capture auditory evoked potentials available in the market.

Rapid adaptation of multisensory integration in vestibular pathways

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015
Sensing gravity is vital for our perception of spatial orientation, the control of upright posture, and generation of our every day activities. When an astronaut transitions to microgravity or returns to earth, the vestibular input arising from self ...

Ipsilateral cochlear implantation in cases with vestibular schwannoma

Eye &ENT Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Vestibular schwannomas (VS) are the most common tumors in the cerebellopontine angle, which can lead to hearing loss, particularly following tumor resection. For patients with bilateral VS associated with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2), hearing loss significantly undermines their quality of life.

Imaging profile of the ear in hearing loss patients in Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia [PDF]

, 2015
Introduction: Hearing impairment is a major disability. The otologic assessments together with high-resolution CT images were able to obtain precise diagnostic profile of ear malformations.

Role of Alpha-band Oscillations in Spatial Updating across Whole Body Motion

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016
When moving around in the world, we have to keep track of important locations in our surroundings. In this process, called spatial updating, we must estimate our body motion and correct representations of memorized spatial locations in accordance with ...
