Autoimmune 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 کاملWhat's new in otology--the inner ear.
IN Part I Mr. Gordon Smyth has paid tribute to those who have gone before us and pioneered the advances which he has just described for the middle ear and which I am going to describe for the inner ear, and I would like to add my tribute to his. SYMPTOMS These are tinnitus, vertigoi and deafness, occuring either singly, in pairs, or all together. 1. Tinnitus This is always associated with some ...
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 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...
متن کاملHigh-resolution in utero 3D MR imaging of inner ear microstructures in fetal sheep.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Developmental inner ear abnormalities can occur due to embryopathies as well as in the context of syndromal diseases like the CHARGE association. In severe cases, an early and definite in utero diagnosis is important for decision-making; here, fetal MR imaging can be a helpful tool. We present results of performing high-resolution MR imaging of the inner ear structures of...
