متن کاملThe cochlear amplifier as a standing wave: "squirting" waves between rows of outer hair cells?
This paper draws attention to symmetric Lloyd-Redwood (SLR) waves-known in ultrasonics as "squirting" waves-and points out that their distinctive properties make them well-suited for carrying positive feedback between rows of outer hair cells. This could result in standing-wave resonance-in essence a narrow-band cochlear amplifier. Based on known physical properties of the cochlea, such an ampl...

Outer hair cell electromotility is crucial for the amplification, sharp frequency selectivity, and nonlinearities of the mammalian cochlea. Current modeling efforts based on morphological, physiological, and biophysical observations reveal transmembrane potential gradients and membrane tension as key independent variables controlling the passive and active mechanics of the cell. The cell's mech...
متن کاملStatic length changes of cochlear outer hair cells can tune low-frequency hearing
The cochlea not only transduces sound-induced vibration into neural spikes, it also amplifies weak sound to boost its detection. Actuators of this active process are sensory outer hair cells in the organ of Corti, whereas the inner hair cells transduce the resulting motion into electric signals that propagate via the auditory nerve to the brain. However, how the outer hair cells modulate the st...
متن کاملMicrostructures in the organ of Corti help outer hair cells form traveling waves along the cochlear coil.
According to the generally accepted theory of mammalian cochlear mechanics, the fluid in the cochlear scalae interacts with the elastic cochlear partition to generate transversely oscillating displacement waves that propagate along the cochlear coil. Using a computational model of cochlear segments, a different type of propagating wave is reported, an elastic propagating wave that is independen...
