Gestational Week GA

  • Week 10 (W10) - SOX2 identifies the prosensory domain within the SOX9/SOX10+ cochlear duct epithelium. Neurites from the adjoining TUBB3+/PRPH + SGNs do not yet penetrate into the epithelium.
  • Week 11 (W11) - Penetration starts prior to hair cell differentiation.
  • Week 12 (W12) - The first MYO7A+/SOX9-/SOX10-/SOX2+ (inner) hair cell can be seen, and is contacted by multiple TUBB3+ and PRPH + neurites. Penetrating neurites are also found at the location of the future OHCs.
  • Week 14 (W14) - Both the IHCs and OHCs have differentiated, and neurites underneath the OHCs start to run in a spiral direction. At this stage, hair cells still express SOX2.
  • Week 20 (W20) - SOX2 is downregulated in all hair cells, as opposed to the other cells in the organ of Corti. PRPH expression distinguishes between type I (PRPH-) and type II (PRPH+) neurites.
Abbreviations
  • SGN - spiral ganglion neuron
  • IHC - inner hair cell
  • O1 - first row of outer hair cells
  • O2 - second row of outer hair cells
  • O3 - third row of outer hair cells
  • OHC - outer hair cell.
