Figure 3

The distribution of cholinergic efferent terminals under the inner and outer hair cells is seen in these high-power views of the organ of Corti, triple-immunostained for a general neuronal marker (neurofilament – green), a cholinergic neuronal marker (choline acetyltransferase – red) and a hair cell marker (myosin VIIa – blue). The image in A is a maximum projection from confocal z-stack through the 5.6 kHz region of a 54 yr old male. The image in B is a zy re-projection of the same z-stack. The red-filled arrowhead in A points to one ChAT-positive efferent terminal on a first-row outer hair cell.
