Long-term survival of LGR5 expressing supporting cells after severe ototoxic trauma in the adult mouse cochlea

IntroductionThe leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 5 (LGR5) is a tissue resident stem cell marker, which it is expressed in supporting cells (SCs) in the organ of Corti in the mammalian inner ear. These LGR5+ SCs can be used as an endogenous source of progenitor cells for rege...
