A role for tectorial membrane mechanics in activating the cochlear amplifier
The mechanical and electrical responses of the mammalian cochlea to acoustic stimuli are nonlinear and highly tuned in frequency. This is due to the electromechanical properties of cochlear outer hair cells (OHCs). At each location along the cochlear spiral, the OHCs mediate an active process in whi...
