MeSH Review:

Ear Ossicles

Welcome! If you are familiar with the subject of this article, you can contribute to this open access knowledge base by deleting incorrect information, restructuring or completely rewriting any text. Read more.

Disease relevance of Ear Ossicles

Our data indicated that cadmium-induced ototoxicity seems to be partially zinc preventable and zinc addition to diet without altering cadmium content in ear ossicles may help to prevent cadmium-induced hearing loss [1].

High impact information on Ear Ossicles

To investigate the long-term surface microstructure of a synthetic auditory ossicle (Apaceram) composed of dense hydroxyapatite (HA), thin HA disks were implanted subcutaneously into the interscapular regions of 12 rats [2].
Regeneration of rat auditory ossicles using recombinant human BMP-2/collagen composites [3].
Cellular response and inflammatory reaction to synthetic auditory ossicle (Bioceram) made from aluminium oxide are investigated [4].
The purpose of the present experiment was to look at the dissolution time in physiological sodium chloride (0.9% NaCl) and sodium sulfide (Na2S) of any mercury (Hg) contained in human auditory ossicles and cartilage after preservation in Cialit and Merthiolate [5].
Cyclic nucleotide and prostaglandin F2 alpha contents of otosclerotic auditory ossicles [6].

Associations of Ear Ossicles with chemical compounds

In this study, increased blood and renal cortical cadmium levels were associated with high cadmium accumulation in ear ossicles and labyrinth in rats exposed to cadmium [7].
We studied the effect of 7-isopropoxy-isoflavone (Ipriflavone) on the collagen synthesizing activity in human otosclerotic auditory ossicle samples from whole organ cultures during incubation for 96 h, and compared this effect with that found in normal meatal cortical bone [8].
