Tectorial Membrane Material Properties in Tecta[superscript Y1870C+] Heterozygous Mice
The solid component of the tectorial membrane (TM) is a porous matrix made up of the radial collagen fibers and the striated sheet matrix. The striated sheet matrix is believed to contribute to shear impedance in both the radial and longitudinal directions, but the molecular mechanisms involved have...
