Characterizing anisotropic, viscoelastic material properties of the tectorial membranes of wild-type and Tectb−/− mutant mice
The tectorial membrane (TM) is an extracellular matrix that is directly coupled with the mechanoelectrical receptors responsible for sensory transduction and amplification. As such, the TM is often hypothesized to play a key role in the remarkable sensory abilities of the mammalian cochlea. Genetic...
