The chromatin remodelling factor Chd7 protects auditory neurons and sensory hair cells from stress-induced degeneration
2021-01-06
Abstract excerpt
Neurons and sensory cells are particularly vulnerable to oxidative stress due to their high oxygen demand during stimulus perception and transmission 1-4 . The mechanisms that protect them from stress-induced death and degeneration remain elusive. Here we show that embryonic deletion of the chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein 7 (CHD7) in auditory neurons or hair cells leads to sensorineural hearing loss due...
