Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels play key roles in sensory biology as transducers of various stimuli. Although these ion channels are expressed in the cochlea, their functions remain poorly understood. Recent studies by Vélez-Ortega and colleagues indicate that their expression by non-sensory supporting cells helps limit damage from acoustic trauma.
期刊介绍:
JARO is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes research findings from disciplines related to otolaryngology and communications sciences, including hearing, balance, speech and voice. JARO welcomes submissions describing experimental research that investigates the mechanisms underlying problems of basic and/or clinical significance.
Authors are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the kinds of papers carried by JARO by looking at past issues. Clinical case studies and pharmaceutical screens are not likely to be considered unless they reveal underlying mechanisms. Methods papers are not encouraged unless they include significant new findings as well. Reviews will be published at the discretion of the editorial board; consult the editor-in-chief before submitting.
