背景情况:
- 年龄相关听力损失严重影响老年人.
- 尽管它在耳离子平衡中起作用,但血管退化是听力损失的一个未被充分研究的原因.
- 这三种细胞层 (边缘,中间,基底) 对于维持内耳潜能至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 系统地绘制老鼠血管的结构和细胞退化.
- 在新陈代谢中,将条形变性与耳功能下降相关联.
- 提供细微的了解状病理对与年龄有关的听力损失的贡献.
主要方法:

In humans, the photoreceptor cells of the eye and sensory hair cells of the ear lack stem cells. These cells are thus unrenewable and cannot be replaced when they are damaged or destroyed.
Photoreceptors
The retina is composed of several layers and contains specialized cells called photoreceptors. The photoreceptors (rods and cones) change their membrane potential when stimulated by light energy. There are two types of photoreceptors—rods and cones—which differ in the shape of...

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.
