Interplay between traveling wave propagation and amplification at the apex of the mouse cochlea
Sounds entering the mammalian ear produce waves that travel from the base to the apex of
the cochlea. An electromechanical active process amplifies traveling wave motions and …

A role for tectorial membrane mechanics in activating the cochlear amplifier
The mechanical and electrical responses of the mammalian cochlea to acoustic stimuli are
nonlinear and highly tuned in frequency. This is due to the electromechanical properties of …

Cochlear impulse responses resolved into sets of gammatones: the case for beating of closely spaced local resonances
A Bell, HP Wit - PeerJ, 2018 - peerj.com
Gammatones have had a long history in auditory studies, and recent theoretical work
suggests they may play an important role in cochlear mechanics as well. Following this lead …

[HTML][HTML] Prediction and interpretation of rare missense variant in OTOG associated with hearing loss
OTOG encodes for otogelin, a component of the tectorial membrane. This gene is associated
with nonprogressive mild-to-moderate hearing loss. However, no studies have yet identified …
