Hair cells transduce mechanical information into electrical signal and, via afferent synapse, transmit it to the central nervous system (CNS). Hair cells receive cholinergic efferent innervation from the CNS, and a long-lasting membrane hyperpolarization is produced by activation of Ca2+-activated K+ channels. Acetylcholine may facilitate afferent synaptic transmission by suppressing K+ channels on the afferent nerve terminal.

Opioid peptides exhibit a wide-ranging tissue distribution and control multiple tissue functions not only through reflex mechanisms involving the central nervous system or the modulation of neurotransmitter release, but also by acting directly at the cellular level by targeting selected receptor subtypes (μ, δ, and κ are among the most frequently expressed) [...]
