- When it comes to our hearing health, finding effective solutions that support and improve our auditory function is crucial. (techplanet.today)
- The proteins in the cell membrane function as pumps, receptors and transporters and regulate which substances find their way into and out of the cell. (lu.se)
- The current data support previous findings and recapitulate transcriptional regulatory alterations in genes involved in sleep, auditory function, and pain. (frontiersin.org)
Synaptic2
- Consistently, phase-locking of synaptic vesicle releases from hair cells was also significantly reduced by blocking PMCA, MCU, or SERCA, but not NCX. (jneurosci.org)
- Here we examine Ca 2+ clearance from hair cell synaptic ribbons in a fully mature preparation at physiological concentration of external Ca 2+ and at physiological temperature. (jneurosci.org)
Electrodes1
- In this episode, Rene Gifford, director of the Cochlear Implant Research Laboratory at Vanderbilt University, discusses how she and an interdisciplinary team developed methods to improve cochlear implants by fine-tuning how implanted electrodes stimulate nerve cells. (sciencefriday.com)
Regenerate2
- Wait, I thought hair cells don't regenerate? (nutritionfacts.org)
- This potent combination will remodel and regenerate every RingHush cell in your body. (besthealthsolution4u.com)
