Sanzhaeva U, Boyd-Pratt H, Bender P, Saravanan T, Rhodes S, Guan T, et al.
Commun Biol . 2024 Sep; 7(1):1146. PMID: 39277687
Microtubules are essential for various cellular processes. The functional diversity of microtubules is attributed to the incorporation of various α- and β-tubulin isotypes encoded by different genes. In this work,...

Wang P, Miller K, He E, Dhawan S, Cunningham C, Grillet N
Nat Commun . 2024 Sep; 15(1):7865. PMID: 39256406
Hair cell bundles consist of stereocilia arranged in rows of increasing heights, connected by tip links that transmit sound-induced forces to shorter stereocilia tips. Auditory mechanotransduction channel complexes, composed of...

Bizup B, Brutsaert S, Cunningham C, Thathiah A, Tzounopoulos T
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2024 Feb; 121(8):e2310561121. PMID: 38354264
Exposure to loud noise triggers sensory organ damage and degeneration that, in turn, leads to hearing loss. Despite the troublesome impact of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) in individuals and societies,...

Wang P, Miller K, He E, Dhawan S, Cunningham C, Grillet N
Res Sq . 2024 Jan; PMID: 38260480
Hearing is initiated in hair cells by the mechanical activation of ion channels in the hair bundle. The hair bundle is formed by stereocilia organized into rows of increasing heights...

Krey J, Chatterjee P, Halford J, Cunningham C, Perrin B, Barr-Gillespie P
PLoS Biol . 2023 Apr; 21(4):e3001964. PMID: 37011103
Assembly of the hair bundle, the sensory organelle of the inner ear, depends on differential growth of actin-based stereocilia. Separate rows of stereocilia, labeled 1 through 3 from tallest to...

Penna E, Cunningham C, Saylor S, Kreutz A, Tarantal A, Martinez-Cerdeno V, et al.
Cereb Cortex Commun . 2021 Oct; 2(4):tgab053. PMID: 34647030
Microglial cells, the innate immune cells of the brain, are derived from yolk sac precursor cells, begin to colonize the telencephalon at the onset of cortical neurogenesis, and occupy specific...

Liang X, Qiu X, Dionne G, Cunningham C, Pucak M, Peng G, et al.
Neuron . 2021 Jun; 109(13):2131-2149.e15. PMID: 34089643
CIB2 is a Ca- and Mg-binding protein essential for mechanoelectrical transduction (MET) by cochlear hair cells, but not by vestibular hair cells that co-express CIB2 and CIB3. Here, we show...

Cunningham C, Bakner L, Schuette L, Young E
Psychopharmacology (Berl) . 2020 Sep; 238(1):55-66. PMID: 32980910
Rationale: Opioid receptor antagonists reliably alter the expression or extinction of ethanol's conditioned motivational effects as indexed by the place conditioning procedure, suggesting endogenous opioids are normally involved. These studies...

Cunningham C, Qiu X, Wu Z, Zhao B, Peng G, Kim Y, et al.
Neuron . 2020 Apr; 107(1):126-143.e8. PMID: 32343945
TMC1 and TMC2 (TMC1/2) have been proposed to form the pore of the mechanotransduction channel of cochlear hair cells. Here, we show that TMC1/2 cannot form mechanotransduction channels in cochlear...
