cochlear part of vestibulocochlear nerve (medicine)


cochlear part of vestibulocochlear nerve -->
cochlear nerve
<anatomy, nerve> The cochlear part of the acoustic (8th cranial) nerve. The cochlear nerve fibres originate from neurons of the spiral ganglion and project peripherally to cochlear hair cells and centrally to the cochlear nuclei of the brainstem. They mediate the sense of hearing.


excitable cell (medicine)


excitable cell
<cell biology, physiology> A cell in which the membrane response to depolarisations is nonlinear, causing amplification and propagation of the depolarisation (an action potential). Apart from neurons and muscle cells, electrical excitability can be observed in fertilized eggs, some plants and glandular tissue. Excitable cells contain voltage gated ion channels.
