Kif1a and intact microtubules maintain synaptic-vesicle populations at ribbon synapses in zebrafish hair cells

Sandeep David, Katherine L. Pinter, Keziah‐Khue Nguyen, David S. Lee, Zhengchang Lei, Yuliya Sokolova, Lavinia Sheets, Katie S. Kindt

The paper shows that Kif1a and microtubules are essential for maintaining synaptic-vesicle populations at ribbon synapses in zebrafish hair cells, affecting neurotransmission and behavior.

Cisplatin drives mitochondrial dysregulation in sensory hair cells

David S. Lee, Angela D. Schrader, Jiaoxia Zou, Wee Han Ang, Mark E. Warchol, Lavinia Sheets

This study shows cisplatin accumulates in hair cell mitochondria and causes dysregulation, linking mitochondrial dysfunction to cisplatin-induced hearing loss.
