Calcium signaling in the cochlea – Molecular mechanisms and physiopathological implications

Calcium ions (Ca(2+)) regulate numerous and diverse aspects of cochlear and vestibular physiology. This review focuses on the Ca(2+) control of mechanotransduction and synaptic transmission in sensory hair cells, as well as on Ca(2+) signalling in non-sensory cells of the developing cochlea.
