This study shows that lack of oncomodulin in adult mice increases ATP-dependent calcium signaling and susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss.

This study identifies ESRRG as essential for normal auditory innervation and hearing by showing that its loss causes early-onset hearing loss and synaptic defects in mice.

This study shows that Oncomodulin modulates spontaneous calcium signaling and afferent innervation maturation in cochlear outer hair cells during development.

Kaitlin E. Murtha, Yang Yang, Federico Ceriani, Jing‐Yi Jeng, Leslie K. Climer, Forrest Jones, Jack Charles, Sai K. Devana, Aubrey J. Hornak, Walter Marcotti, Dwayne D. Simmons
This study shows that OCM uniquely regulates intracellular Ca2+ signaling in neonatal cochlear outer hair cells by slowing Ca2+ kinetics and reducing free [Ca2+]i.

Sherylanne Newton, Fanbo Kong, Adam J. Carlton, Carlos Aguilar, Andrew J. Parker, Gemma F. Codner, Lydia Teboul, Sara E. Wells, Steve D. M. Brown, Walter Marcotti, Michael R. Bowl
This study investigates the role of Neuroplastin in mammalian hearing, showing that only the Np55 isoform is essential for cochlear hair cell function and that its absence interacts genetically with Cdh23 mutations to cause hearing loss.

The paper shows that immature inner hair cells in the cochlea have intrinsic Ca2+ action potentials that are bidirectionally coupled to ATP-dependent Ca2+ signaling in non-sensory cells.

Federico Ceriani, Aenea Hendry, Jing‐Yi Jeng, Stuart L. Johnson, Friederike Stephani, Jennifer Olt, Matthew C. Holley, Fabio Mammano, Jutta Engel, Corné J. Kros, Dwayne D. Simmons, Walter Marcotti
The paper shows that spontaneous Ca2+ signals from OHCs and non-sensory cells coordinate to refine OHC afferent innervation during development.
