Hair-cell mechanotransduction and cochlear amplification

M LeMasurier, PG Gillespie - Neuron, 2005 - cell.com
In the inner ear, sensory hair cells not only detect but also amplify the softest sounds,
allowing us to hear over an extraordinarily wide intensity range. This amplification is …

Adaptive shift in the domain of negative stiffness during spontaneous oscillation by hair bundles from the internal ear

L Le Goff, D Bozovic… - Proceedings of the …, 2005 - National Acad Sciences
When a hair cell of the bullfrog's sacculus is maintained in vitro under native ionic
conditions, its mechanosensitive hair bundle may oscillate spontaneously. This movement …
