Placode and neural crest origins of congenital deafness in mouse models of Waardenburg-Shah syndrome

Summary: Mutations in the human genes encoding the endothelin ligand-receptor pair EDN3 and EDNRB cause Waardenburg-Shah syndrome (WS4), which includes congenital hearing impairment. The current explanation for auditory dysfunction is defective migration of neural crest-derived melanocytes to the in...
