摘要: The synapse between the inner hair cells (IHCs) and spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in mammalian cochleae is characterized as having presynaptic ribbons therefore called ribbon synapse. special molecular organization reviewed this chapter association with functional feature of signal processing. This followed by review on noise-induced damage to a focus recent reports animal models which effect brief noise exposures observed without causing significant permanent threshold shift (PTS). In regard, potential mechanism synaptic impact hearing are summarized clarify concept hidden loss, defined deficits elevation. A controversial issue addressed whether disrupted synapses can be regenerated. Moreover, summarizes work therapeutic research protect or promote regeneration after initial disruption. Lastly, several unresolved issues raised for investigation future.
