Inner hair cell stereocilia are embedded in the tectorial membrane

Mammalian hearing depends on sound-evoked displacements of the stereocilia of inner hair cells (IHCs), which cause the endogenous mechanoelectrical transducer channels to conduct inward currents of cations including Ca(2+). Due to their presumed lack of contacts with the overlaying tectorial membran...
