Electron Microscopy Techniques for Investigating Structure and Composition of Hair-Cell Stereociliary Bundles
Hair cells—the sensory cells of the vertebrate inner ear—bear at their apical surfaces a bundle of actin-filled protrusions called stereocilia, which mediate the cells’ mechanosensitivity. Hereditary deafness is often associated with morphological disorganization of stereocilia bundles, with the abs...
