Outer hair cells (OHCs) from the mammalian cochlea act as both sensory cells and motor cells. We report here whole-cell tight seal recordings of OHC activity in their natural embedding tissue, the intact organ of Corti, using a temporal bone preparation. The mean cell resting potential, -76 + 4 mV (
Epithelial supporting cells can differentiate into outer hair cells and Deiters' cells in the cultured organ of Corti

We used the bromodeoxyuridine technique to study the proliferative activity in the basilar papilla of normal and Belgian Waterslager canaries with and without preceding sound trauma. Without sound trauma, there were, on average, six supporting cell divisions per day in the basilar papilla of Watersl
The ability of secretions from the bovine oviduct to maintain the viability and motility of bovine spermatozoa was investigated by incubating frozen-thawed spermatozoa with oviductal flushings, uterine flushings, or the medium from cultures of oviductal epithelial cells and endothelial cells. The fl
