Biophysical properties of the IHCs recorded in whole-cell experiments under room and physiological temperature

22.8 ± 0.4°C 37.3 ± 0.3°C
Cm (pF) 9.7 ± 0.2 9.0 ± 0.2
Iss(pA) −12.8 ± 3.1 −8.3 ± 1.2
Rs (MΩ) 6.0 ± 0.1 5.4 ± 0.2
Vh(mV) −37.2 ± 0.6 −35.8 ± 0.4
k (mV) 6.4 ± 0.1 6.5 ± 0.1

Iss is the steady-state current recorded at the holding potential (−87 mV). Vh and k are from fits using a first order Boltzmann equation times the driving force. n= 10, values are means ±s.e.m.
