Mechanisms of hair cell tuning.

Annual review of physiology - 1 Jan 1999

Fettiplace R, Fuchs P A

Abstract excerpt

Mechanosensory hair cells of the vertebrate inner ear contribute to acoustic tuning through feedback processes involving voltage-gated channels in the basolateral membrane and mechanotransduction channels in the apical hair bundle. The specific number and kinetics of calcium-activated (BK) potassium channels determine the resonant frequency of electrically tuned hair cells. Kinetic variation among BK channels may...
