By oneway Anova test, it was found that there was significant difference in degeneration grades of all parameters (
organ of corti, spiral ganglion, and stria vascularis) among the three groups (p<0.05).
The dissected segments of the
organ of Corti were digested using collagenase IV for 5min (2mg/ml, Sigma, St.
A cochlear duct dissected from the modiolus, containing (A) the
organ of Corti, spiral ligament/stria vascularis, and Reissner's membrane.
Exposure to noise at high levels causes certain changes in the inner ear, particularly, the
organ of corti. It has been indicated that the most affected cells are the outer hair cells.
The
organ of Corti was dissected in 70 percent ethanol and mounted in glycerin to allow counting of the hair cells.
KEY WORDS: auditory cells, cadmium, caspase-3, caspase-9, ERK, extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase,
organ of Corti, reactive oxygen species.
Called the cochlea, the inner ear is roughly an inch in length, and it contains the magical
Organ of Corti, or the true organ of hearing.
Since there was no way to distinguish between any Math1-induced hair cells and preexisting ones, Raphael's team couldn't prove that new hair cells had grown within the part of the inner ear that usually holds them, the
organ of Corti. Still, there were immature hair cells within this area in the treated guinea pigs but not in the untreated animals, the scientists report in the June 1 Journal of Neuroscience.
Evidently, physical changes that occur in the body during exercise, such as chemical and temperature changes, blood pressure and increased heart rate, can affect the
Organ of Corti (the hearing organ within the inner ear).
What's made the difference is the patronage of Gary Todd's
Organ of Corti label, in Malibu, California, which has also brought out the work of various minimalists and maximalists like Terry Riley, Derek Bailey, and the Los Angeles Free Music Society.
The ontogeny of auditory system function has been correlated with many events, for example, the differentiation of the outer hair cells (OHCs), maturation of the synapses, development of tissue space in the
organ of Corti (OC), and degradation of Kolliker's organ [13].
