Physiological Mechanisms of Onset Adaptation and Contralateral Suppression of DPOAEs in the Rat
No full textOuter hair cell somatic, not hair bundle, motility is the basis of the cochlear amplifier
No full textSensitivity, dynamic range and frequency tuning of the cochlea are attributed to amplification involving outer hair cell stereocilia and/or somatic motility. We measured acoustically and electrically elicited basilar membrane displacements from the cochleae of wild-type and TectaDeltaENT/DeltaENT mice, in which stereocilia are unable to contribute to amplification near threshold. Electrically elicited responses from TectaDeltaENT/DeltaENT mice were markedly similar to acoustically and electrically elicited responses from wild-type mice. We conclude that somatic, and not stereocilia, motility is the basis of cochlear amplification
