To observe the cross-links between stereocilia on guinea pig utricle hair cells.
Twenty-four utricles from pigmented guinea pigs were examined using high resolution scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
An extensive network of cross-links occurs between stereocilia of utricle hair cells. These links fall into three categories. Upward-pointing links: from the tips of shorter stereocilia to the side of the adjacent taller stereocilia; Side-to-side links: between stereocilia of the same row; Row-to-row links: between adjacent rows.
The existence of the stereociliary cross-links binds the hair bundles together and may be associated with the transduction process.
观察豚鼠椭圆囊毛细胞静纤毛之间的交联结构。
采用高分辨率扫描电子显微镜（SEM）和透射电子显微镜（TEM）对24个有色豚鼠的椭圆囊进行检查。
椭圆囊毛细胞的静纤毛之间存在广泛的交联网络。这些连接可分为三类。向上指向的连接：从较短静纤毛的尖端到相邻较高静纤毛的侧面；侧向连接：同一排静纤毛之间；排间连接：相邻排之间。
静纤毛交联结构的存在将毛束结合在一起，可能与转导过程有关。
