Abstract excerpt
The otocyst, an anlage of the inner ear, presents an attractive target to study treatment strategies for genetic hearing loss and inner ear development. We have previously reported that electroporation-mediated transuterine gene transfer of Connexin30, utilizing a monophasic pulse into Connexin30-/- mouse otocysts at embryonic day 11.5, is able to prevent putative hearing deterioration. However, it is not clear...
