Research conducted in the past 4 years has shown that the avian vestibular system retains the capacity to generate hair cells postnatally. In the present paper we review information on postnatal proliferation and differentiation of hair cells in the avian vestibular system. In addition, we present preliminary accounts of recent experiments regarding regeneration of vestibular hair cells following aminoglycoside toxicity. The overall consensus is that the avian vestibular system is able to regenerate hair cells, both on an ongoing basis and after damage.
过去4年进行的研究表明，鸟类前庭系统在出生后仍保留产生毛细胞的能力。在本文中，我们回顾了有关鸟类前庭系统中毛细胞出生后增殖和分化的信息。此外，我们还介绍了近期关于氨基糖苷类毒性后前庭毛细胞再生实验的初步情况。总体共识是，鸟类前庭系统能够持续再生毛细胞，并且在受损后也能再生。
