1. Mechanosensitive hair cell-like cells from embryon... [Cell. 2010] - PubMed result
Mechanosensitive sensory hair cells are the linchpin of our senses of hearing and balance. The inability of the mammalian inner ear to regenerate lost hair cells is the major reason for the permanence of hearing loss and certain...

10. Zuo: Hair cell regeneration
HC loss is a major cause of deafness in children and the aging population. However, unlike fish and chickens, humans and other mammals cannot spontaneously regenerate damaged HCs. To restore hearing in deaf children and adults, we first developed ...
