deiters

the primary function of deiters cells is to support the sensory hair cells in the cochlea.

researchers examined the phalangeal processes of deiters cells under a high-powered microscope.

damage to deiters cells can lead to hearing loss due to the lack of structural support.

gap junctions between deiters cells are essential for maintaining ionic homeostasis in the inner ear.

deiters cells span from the basilar membrane to the reticular lamina in the organ of corti.

ototoxic drugs can cause significant damage to both hair cells and deiters cells.

the cytoskeleton of deiters cells provides the mechanical stability needed for auditory transduction.

scientists isolated deiters cells to study their role in cochlear repair mechanisms.

deiters cells are classified as supporting cells within the mammalian inner ear.

the cup-shaped terminal of deiters cells cradles the base of the outer hair cells.

pathological changes in deiters cells are often observed in cases of noise-induced hearing loss.
