Acoustic Trauma Increases Ribbon Number and Size in Outer Hair Cells of the Mouse Cochlea

Outer hair cells (OHCs) in the mouse cochlea are contacted by up to three type II afferent boutons. On average, only half of these are postsynaptic to presynaptic ribbons. Mice of both sexes were subjected to acoustic trauma that produced a threshold shift of 44.2 ± 9.1 dB 7 days after exposure. Rib...
