TABLE 1.

Regional differences in lateral mobility in OHCs

	Lateral (n = 17)	Basal (n = 13)	Apical (n = 15)
M_f (%)	94 ± 5^a	85 ± 9^b	76 ± 11^b,a
D (μm²/s)	1.67 ± 0.89	1.29 ± 0.47	5.26 ± 3.95^b,a
R²	0.83 ± 0.09	0.81 ± 0.11	0.56 ± 0.17

Average values ± SD for M_f and D. R² values for fits used to determine D are provided. D was similar between the lateral and basal regions but was statistically significantly higher in the apical region (p < 0.0005).

^aM_f values were statistically different between all regions (p < 0.05) for comparison to basal

^bM_f values were statistically different between all regions (p < 0.05) for comparison to lateral
