Abstract

Intercellular electrical coupling was assessed in an in vitro organ of Corti preparation using separate electrodes to inject current and record voltage drops in Hensen's cells. The results demonstrate much better coupling among these supporting cells than previously thought. Coupling ratios between adjacent Hensen's cells are greater than 0.6.
