FIGURE 1

Anatomy of the organ of Corti in normal-hearing wild type (WT) and Lgr5GFP adult mice. Representative images of immunofluorescence microscopy of apex, middle and base in whole mount dissections of the cochlea of WT and Lgr5GFP adult (p30 and p100) mice stained with myosin VII A (MYO7A) in red, GFP (LGR5) in green and DAPI in blue. GFP (LGR5) was detected particularly in the 3rd row of Deiters’ cells (DC3s) and, to a lesser extent, in the inner pillar cells (IPCs). No changes in GFP (LGR5) expression were found between p30 and p100 mice. Bar = 10 μm. nWT = 3; nLgr5GFP(p30) = 7; nLgr5GFP(p100) = 3 (representative images of 1 cochlea per group).
