Atoh1 Directs Regeneration and Functional Recovery of the Mature Mouse Vestibular System

Summary: Utricular hair cells (HCs) are mechanoreceptors required for vestibular function. After damage, regeneration of mammalian utricular HCs is limited and regenerated HCs appear immature. Thus, loss of vestibular function is presumed irreversible. Here, we found partial HC replacement and funct...
