Neurosci. 2021, 41 (37) 7742-7767 Abstract Rab-interacting molecule (RIM)-binding protein 2 (BP2) is a multidomain protein of the presynaptic active zone (AZ). By binding to RIM, bassoon

Authors Oestreicher D, Picher MM, Rankovic V, Moser T, Pangrsic T Journal Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience Citation Front. Mol. Neurosci. 2021, 14:689415. Abstract Clinical management of auditory synaptopathies like other genetic hearing disorders is currently limited to the use of hearing aids or cochlear implants. However, future gene therapy promises restoration of

Authors Krinner S, Predoehl F, Burfeind D, Vogl C, Moser T Journal Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience Citation Front. Mol. Neurosci. 14:651935. Abstract The afferent synapses between inner hair cells (IHC) and spiral ganglion neurons are specialized to faithfully encode sound with sub-millisecond precision over prolonged periods of time. Here, we

Abstract Optogenetic stimulation of type I spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) promises an alternative to the electrical stimulation by current cochlear implants (CIs) for improved hearing restoration by future optical

Authors Wrobel C, Zafeiriou MP, Moser T Journal EBioMedicine Citation EBioMedicine. 2021 Jan 7;63:103171. Abstract Sensorineural hearing impairment is the most frequent form of hearing impairment affecting 1–2 in 1000 newborns and another 1 in 1000 adolescents. More than 50% of congenital hearing impairment is of genetic origin and some

Authors Hua Y, Ding X, Wang H, Wang F, Lu Y, Neef J, Gao Y, Moser T, Wu H Journal Cell Reports Citation Cell Rep. 2021 Jan 5;34(1):108551. Abstract Recent studies reveal great diversity in the structure, function, and efferent innervation of afferent synaptic connections between the cochlear inner hair

Authors Özcete Ö, Moser T Journal EMBO Journal Citation EMBO J (2020)e106010. Abstract The cochlea encodes sound pressures varying over six orders of magnitude by collective operation of functionally diverse spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs). The mechanisms enabling this functional diversity remain elusive. Here, we asked whether the sound intensity information,
