Opa1 knockdown or overexpression respectively aggravates or partially rescues cisplatin induced hair cell damage in organotypic cochlear cultures. (A) Representative confocal images of the apical, middle, and basal regions of organotypic cochlear cultures transfected with siOpa1 or Opa1 and treated with 60 μM cisplatin. Hair cells are indicated by MYO7A staining (red) and nuclei are indicated by DAPI staining (blue). (B,C) Quantification of IHCs (B) and OHCs (C) in the apical, middle, and basal turns. N = 3–5 per groups. p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001 (two-way ANOVA).
