Two studies in mice use new technique to provide insight into cell development critical for hearing, balance
Bethesda, Maryland–(ENEWSPF)–October 15, 2015. Using a sensitive new technology called single-cell RNA-seq on cells from mice, scientists have created the first high-resolution gene expression map of the newborn mouse inner ear. The findings provide new insight into how epithelial cells in the inner ear develop and differentiate into specialized cells that serve critical functions for hearing and maintaining…
