Enriched acoustic environment after noise trauma reduces hearing loss and prevents cortical map reorganization.
Exposure to sound of sufficient duration and level causes permanent damage to the peripheral auditory system, which results in the reorganization of the cortical tonotopic map. The changes are such that neurons with pre-exposure tuning to frequencies in the hearing loss range now become tuned to frequencies near the near-normal lower boundary of the hearing loss range, which thus becomes over r...
متن کاملLeupeptin reduces impulse noise induced hearing loss
BACKGROUND Exposure to continuous and impulse noise can induce a hearing loss. Leupeptin is an inhibitor of the calpains, a family of calcium-activated proteases which promote cell death. The objective of this study is to assess whether Leupeptin could reduce the hearing loss resulting from rifle impulse noise. METHODS A polyethelene tube was implanted into middle ear cavities of eight fat sa...
متن کاملHearing loss after noise exposure.
The higher field strength magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) such as 3 Tesla (T) and above generates noise that has potential detrimental effects on the hearing. Temporary threshold shifts following MRI examination have been reported for MRI with lower field strength. Such effect, however, have not been reported so far for a 3T MRI. We report a case that exemplifies the possible detrimental effec...
متن کاملDynamics and specificity of cortical map reorganization after retinal lesions.
Neurons in the mature visual cortex deprived of their normal retinotopic inputs by matched binocular retinal lesions are initially silenced but become reactivated with time when the "blind" cortical lesion projection zone (LPZ) is filled in by new suprathreshold visual responses. In an attempt to gain further insight into the dynamics of this process, we investigated in detail the spatiotempora...
متن کاملReorganization of the chick basilar papilla after acoustic trauma.
The auditory epithelium in birds and mammals consists of a postmitotic population of hair cells and supporting cells. Unlike mammals, birds can regenerate their auditory epithelia after trauma. Recent evidence indicates that supporting cells undergo mitosis after acoustic trauma, suggesting that supporting cells may transdifferentiate into hair cells. The goals of this study were to 1) characte...
