research Follistatin promotes LIN28B-mediated supporting cell reprogramming and hair cell regeneration in the murine cochlea 16 citations , February 2022 in “Science Advances” Follistatin and LIN28B together improve the ability of inner ear cells in mice to regenerate into hearing cells.
research Rps14 upregulation promotes inner ear progenitor proliferation and hair cell regeneration in the neonatal mouse cochlea September 2022 in “Research Square (Research Square)” Increasing Rps14 helps grow more inner ear cells and repair hearing cells in baby mice.
research Defining the Cellular Environment in the Organ of Corti following Extensive Hair Cell Loss: A Basis for Future Sensory Cell Replacement in the Cochlea 71 citations , January 2012 in “PloS one” The conclusion is that genetic differences affect how the cochlea heals after hair cell loss, which may challenge the creation of hearing loss treatments.
research EGFR signaling is required for regenerative proliferation in the cochlea: Conservation in birds and mammals 53 citations , January 2012 in “Developmental Biology” EGFR signaling is essential for ear cell regeneration in both birds and mammals.
research The structural and functional aspects of hair cell regeneration in the chick as a result of exposure to intense sound 63 citations , January 1992 in “Experimental Neurology” Chickens exposed to loud noise can quickly regain hearing mostly due to repair of the tectorial membrane, not just hair cell regeneration.
