Summary of experimental groups for peripheral innervation cocultures.

Whole explant control HC-only control AN/HC control SC/HC coculture
Preparation Whole cochlear explant where HCs and ANs are kept intact HC-only explant where ANs are dissected from HCs HC rows and ANs are separated and cocultured HCs and SC-derived neurons: hair cell rows are cocultured with SC-derived neural progenitors
Culture period 1 DIV 12-14 DIV 12-14 DIV 12-14 DIV

Controls for Positive control for synapses between HCs and endogenous ANs Negative control for synapses For comparison between SC-derived neurons and endogenous ANs in reinnervation Experimental group

HC: hair cell; AN: auditory neuron; SC: stem cell; DIV: days in vitro.
