State dependent effects on the frequency response of prestin real and imaginary components of nonlinear capacitance
Joseph Santos-Sacchi, Dhasakumar Navaratnam, Winston Tan
The outer hair cell (OHC) membrane harbors a voltage-dependent protein, prestin (SLC26a5), in high density, whose charge movement is evidenced as a nonlinear capacitance (NLC). NLC…
Complex nonlinear capacitance in outer hair cell macro-patches: effects of membrane tension
Joseph Santos-Sacchi, Winston Tan
Outer hair cell (OHC) nonlinear capacitance (NLC) represents voltage sensor charge movements of prestin (SLC26a5), the protein responsible for OHC electromotility. Previous measure…
The outer hair cell of the organ of Corti possesses a voltage-dependent motile frequency response: evidence for the frequency-dependent compliance of prestin
Joseph Santos-Sacchi, Kuni Iwasa, Winston Tan
The outer hair cell (OHC) of the organ of Corti underlies a mechanically based process that enhances hearing, termed cochlear amplification. The cell possesses a unique motor prote…
