The ribbon synapses of inner hair cells (IHCs) play an important role in sound encoding and neurotransmitter release. However, it remains unclear whether IHC ribbon synapse plasticity can be interrupted by ototoxic aminoglycoside stimuli. Here, we report that quantitative changes in the number of IHC ribbon synapses and hearing loss occur in respon...
