Morphological and functional correlates of vestibular synaptic deafferentation and repair in a mouse model of acute-onset vertigo

Damage to cochlear primary afferent synapses has been shown to be a key factor in various auditory pathologies. Similarly, the selective lesioning of primary vestibular synapses might be an underlying cause of peripheral vestibulopathies that cause vertigo and dizziness, for which the pathophysiolog...
