Mining immune epitopes in the inner ear.
Etiologies for many inner ear disorders, including autoimmune inner ear disease, sudden sensorineural hearing loss, and Meniere's disease, remain unknown. Indirect evidence suggests an immune-mediated process involving an allergic or autoimmune mechanism. We examined whether known immunogenic proteins share sequence similarity with inner ear proteins, which may lead to cross-reactivity and detr...
متن کاملAutoimmune Inner Ear Disease- A Clinical Viewpoint
Recent developments in medicine have given us a better insight into a group of disorders known as autoimmune diseases. In particular, advances have occurred in our understanding of the Autoimmune Inner Ear Disease (AIED). In this article, the authors review the different postulated theories in the pathogenesis of this disease. The clinical presentation, the available para-clinical diagnostic to...
متن کاملInside the inner ear
There are dozens of different myosin isozymes, though it's not clear why cells require such a diversity. These images of fluorescently-labelled hair cells from the inner ears of frog, guinea pig and mouse show the localization of actin (red at top left and bottom right) and of four different forms of myosin (green, except at bottom left, where myosin VI is labelled in red). Hair cells are the r...
متن کاملConformity of the real-ear aided response with the target response from the DSL v5 formula
Objectives: Real ear measurement plays a critical role in children’s hearing aid fitting. This study aimed to evaluate the conformity of measured and predicted real-ear aided response (REAR) of prescribed formula desired sensation level (DSL) v5 Pediatric in children aged 4 to 7 years. Since there is limited information about the effect of the degree of hearing loss (DOHL), ethnicity, gender, a...
متن کاملBiomechanics in the Inner Ear
The elongation and contraction of outer hair cells (OHCs) greatly contribute to the high sensitivity and frequency selectivity of the mammalian inner ear. The motility of OHCs is believed to be based on the conformational changes of the motor protein prestin in the plasma membrane of OHCs. In the present study, four lines of research on the inner ear were conducted. First, the mechanism by whic...
