Single cell RNA sequencing analysis of mouse cochlear supporting cell transcriptomes with activated ERBB2 receptor, a candidate mediator of hearing restoration mechanisms.
Abstract:Hearing loss caused by the death of cochlear hair cells (HCs) might be restored through regeneration from supporting cells (SCs) via dedifferentiation and proliferation, as observed in birds. We recently found that in mice, activation of ERBB2 in SCs promoted the differentiation of hair cell-like cells. Here we analyze transcriptomes of neonatal mouse cochlear SCs with activated ERBB2 using single-cell RNA sequencing. ERBB2 induction in vivo generated a new population of cells expressing de novo SIBLING (small… Show more
