Meanings of stria vascularis in English

The stria vascularis in the aged, null mice was thinner than in the heterozygous or wildtype mice.

Cells expressing Sox10 were present in the stria vascularis, outer sulcus and spiral prominence in mouse and human cochleas.

GR receptor mRNAs were demonstrated neither in cells of the stria vascularis nor in cells of the organ of Corti region.

Immunoreactivity for sPLA2 also was detected in cultured marginal cells of the stria vascularis and in fibrocytes of the spiral ligament.

We observed degeneration of stria vascularis intermediate cells, the cells that generate the endocochlear potential, but no other abnormalities within the cochlea.

In the primate stria vascularis, alpha B-crystallin was mainly seen in the basal cell layer and the adjacent cells of the connective tissue layer.

These results suggest that the stria vascularis may be a site of the inner ear damage that follows bacterial inoculation into the middle ear cavity.

Transmission electron microscopy of the temporal bone revealed ultrastructural changes in the outer hair cells, stria vascularis and cochlear ganglion at the cochlear basal turn.

We conclude that fluctuations of hearing result from fluctuations of the endocochlear potential and stria vascularis dysfunction in Slc26a4-insufficient mouse ears.
