Functional contributions of quantal and non-quantal hair cell synaptic transmission in the vestibular periphery

Dyllan Zhou, Yu Zhou, Takashi Kodama, Wesley W. Schoo, S du Lac, Elisabeth Glowatzki, Soroush G. Sadeghi

This study investigates the functional roles of quantal and non-quantal synaptic transmission from type I and II hair cells in mice, showing that non-quantal transmission can drive vestibular responses across a wide range of frequencies, while quantal transmission is essential for gravity detection.

Efferent Synaptic Transmission at the Vestibular Type II Hair Cell Synapse

Yu Zhou, J. Michael McIntosh, Soroush G. Sadeghi, Elisabeth Glowatzki

This study investigates efferent synaptic inputs to type II vestibular hair cells using optogenetic and electrical stimulation, revealing hyperpolarization and facilitation during repetitive stimulation.
