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.

Role of alpha synuclein in noise induced hearing loss

The recent discovery of the contribution of alpha synuclein in the auditory system prompted further investigation of its functional role. Auditory brainstem response (ABR) and gap detection testing were completed on wild-type and transgenic M83 mice to assess the role of alpha synuclein in noise-induced hearing loss and central auditory function.
