• at E16.0, 62% of homozygotes show a severely abnormal membranous labyrinth; the remaining 38% show a less severe but highly dysmorphic phenotype with identifiable semicircular canals of abnormal planes lumen and size and inner ear structures that resemble an inflated sac
(J:71547)
• 27% of 5RA-8.25-8.75-treated homozygotes exhibit a morphologically improved membranous labyrinth, with a similar degree of rescue to that of the cartilaginous capsules: the endolyphatic duct, semicircular canals, utricle, saccule, cochlear duct are present while recovery of cochlear turning is evident in all but one
(J:71547)
• in 5RA-8-treated homozygotes, the degree of rescue of semicircular canals, utricle, and saccule correlate with the recovery of normal numebr/distribution of cristae and macule
