The mechanoelectrical transducer channel is not required for regulation of cochlear blood flow during loud sound exposure in mice
Abstract The mammalian cochlea possesses unique acoustic sensitivity due to a mechanoelectrical ‘amplifier’, which requires the metabolic support of the cochlear lateral wall. Loud sound exposure sufficient to induce permanent hearing damage causes cochlear blood flow reduction, which may contribute...
