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.

The study investigates noise-induced vulnerability of low spontaneous rate type 1C spiral ganglion neuron synapses in C57Bl/6J mice using an LYPD1 reporter model and finds increased vulnerability of LYPD1-positive synapses.

This paper develops a machine learning framework to detect sound-evoked pain in mice by analyzing facial grimace and body position from video recordings, demonstrating its ability to quantify pain responses.

This study shows that regenerated IHC synapses in vitro are functional and exhibit glutamatergic currents, with older cultures showing more mature release properties.

The paper analyzes multiphasic EPSCs in rat auditory nerve fibers to determine the nature of synaptic release, finding that charge is similar between monophasic and multiphasic events, amplitudes decline with release events, and serial release properties are not fully explained by existing models.

This study investigates how cholinergic inputs modulate membrane properties and firing patterns of calyx terminals in the vestibular system through KCNQ channel activity.

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