Renewed proliferation in adult mouse cochlea and regeneration of hair cells
The adult mammalian inner ear cells cannot regenerate nor proliferate. Here, the authors show that co-activation of Myc and NOTCH pathways can stimulate proliferation of inner ear sensory epithelial cells, which can be induced to become hair cell-like cells in vitro and in vivo.
