Evaluaton of a genetic marker within the organ of Corti of transgenic mice

This paper reviews a study to evaluate a genetic marker within the organ of Corti in transgenic mice for potential use in cell lineage studies.

Investigation of the effect of macrophages and other leukocytes on hair cell regeneration in the avian inner ear

This paper investigates the relationship between hair cell proliferation and immunosuppression in chicks.

Marginal cell density in young and old CBA/J and CBA/CAJ mice

The goal of the present study was to compare aging characteristics of the cochlear lateral wall in inbred mouse strains (CBA/J and CBA/CaJ) having very different endocochlear potential (EP)-versus-age profiles to see which anatomic differences might predict their EP differences.

Cisplatin ototoxicity and hair cell regeneration in the zebrafish lateral line

Hair cell death and regeneration on the zebrafish posterior lateral line was investigated after cisplatin administration. Hair cell regeneration was first observed by 24 hours of recovery and was further analyzed after specific recovery intervals. Disruption of the notch signaling pathways by the y-secretase inhibitor DAPT resulted in an increase in hair cells at three days of recovery.
