Development of an Optogenetic Tool for Targeted Sensory Hair Cell Ablation in Zebrafish
Mechanosensory hair cells convert mechanical information into neuronal signals. Mutations in the genes required for hair cell function cause deafness and lead to the degeneration of sensory hair cells. Mammals are unable to regenerate these cells, leading to the permanent loss of hair cells. …

Regeneration of Hair Cell Epithelia in the Chick and Salamander
The acousticolateralis sensory system is characterized by a specific receptor cell type called the sensory hair cell and is found in all vertebrates. There are two types of hair cell sensory epithelia based on location: those of the inner ear, such as the organs for hearing and balance, and the …

Hearing Sensitivity and the Effect of Sound Exposure on the Axolotl (Ambystoma Mexicanum)
… genetics, and regeneration. Although the sensory hair cells of the lateral line of this species have been shown to be able to regenerate, it is not known whether this also occurs in the inner ear. In fact, little is known about the hearing capabilities of the axolotl or other salamander …

Early onset of age related hearing loss in LDHB knock out mouse
… of mammalian aging and is the most common sensory dysfunction in the elderly. AHL is associated with an age depended loss of sensory hair cell, spiral ganglion neurons, and stria vascularis cell in the inner ear(Gates and Mills,2005 and Yamasoba et al., 2007). The progressive loss of these …
