Providing a current overview of the mechanosensory receptor cells of the vertebrate inner ear, this text describes experimental approaches such as molecular, genetic, ultrastructural, biophysical and computational.
Vertebrate Hair Cells: Modern and Historic Perspectives.- The Development of Hair Cells in the Inner Ear.- The Structure and Composition of the Stereociliary Bundle of Vertebrate Hair Cells.- Mechanoelectrical Transduction in Auditory Hair Cells.- Contribution of Ionic Currents to Tuning in Auditory Hair Cells.- The Synaptic Physiology of Hair Cells.- The Piezoelectric Outer Hair Cell.- Mammalian Vestibular Hair Cells.
'Vertebrate Hair Cells' provides a current overview of the mechanosensory receptor cells of the vertebrate inner ear. Each chapter is written by experimentalists active in exploring a particular aspect of hair cell function, including development, mechanoelectrical transduction, and synaptic transmission. Hair cell research has entered an exciting phase in which the convergence of molecular/genetic and biophysical methods is stimulating a rapid expansion in our understanding of function. The intended audience ranges from senior undergraduates to scientists in the field of hair cell research.
