Active cochlear amplification is dependent on supporting cell gap junctions
Mammalian hearing relies upon active cochlear mechanics, which arises from outer hair cell (OHC) electromotility and hair bundle movement, to amplify acoustic stimulations increasing hearing sensitivity and frequency selectivity. Here we describe the novel finding that gap junctions between cochlear...
