Generation of inner ear sensory neurons using blastocyst complementation in a Neurog1 +/−−deficient mouse

Abstract This research is the first to produce induced pluripotent stem cell-derived inner ear sensory neurons in the Neurog1 +/− heterozygote mouse using blastocyst complementation. Additionally, this approach corrected non-sensory deficits associated with Neurog1 heterozygosity, indicating that co...
