Deletion of the Notch ligand Jagged1 during cochlear maturation leads to inner hair cell defects and hearing loss
Abstract The mammalian cochlea is an exceptionally well-organized epithelium composed of hair cells, supporting cells, and innervating neurons. Loss or defects in any of these cell types, particularly the specialized sensory hair cells, leads to deafness. The Notch pathway is known to play a critica...
