- 基因组完整性和DNA修复机制.
- 听觉神经科学和内耳功能.
背景情况:
- 核酸切除修复 (NER) 通过特定的内核酶维持基因组完整性.
- 色素群G (XPG) 和色素群F (XPF) 是NER中关键的结构特异性内核酶.
- 环境压力因素对耳DNA修复的影响尚不清楚.
研究的目的:
- 调查环境噪声对哺乳动物尾虫中XPG和XPF的表达的影响.
- 为了确定噪声引起的内核酶表达变化是否会影响耳信号处理.
主要方法:
- 哺乳动物的尾虫暴露于无处不在的背景噪音作为环境压力因素.
- 在耳神经感官表皮中量化了XPG和XPF的基因表达水平.

Anatomy of the Ear
8.4K
Auditory sensation, commonly called hearing, involves the transformation of sonic waves into neural impulses facilitated by the structures of the auditory organ. The prominent, flesh-like structure on the side of the head, called the auricle, directs sound waves towards the auditory canal. The auricle is often mislabeled as the pinna, a term more aligned with mobile structures like a feline's external ear. The auditory canal penetrates the cranium via the external auditory meatus of the...

The Cochlea
44.9K
The cochlea is a coiled structure in the inner ear that contains hair cells—the sensory receptors of the auditory system. Sound waves are transmitted to the cochlea by small bones attached to the eardrum called the ossicles, which vibrate the oval window that leads to the inner ear. This causes fluid in the chambers of the cochlea to move, vibrating the basilar membrane.
