hearing/vestibular/ear
• stereocilia reduced to one row and several hair cells are missing at P11
• loss of the third row of stereocilia prior the onset of hearing at P245
|
• at P245
|
• a few missing stereocilia in the shorter third row of outer hair cell cilia at P11, which are almost completely lost by P49
• at P245
|
• highly reduced maximal current at P11, but not P8-P9, when the membrane is depolarized to +96 mV
• reduced current at P11
• however, mice exhibit normal resting current at positive and negative membrane potentials and basolateral membrane property development
|
• reduced for clicks at 2 months to levels observed in P14 mice
• absent for clicks at 5-8 months of age
• reduced pure-tone evoked ABRs
• increased wave 1 amplitude that parallels the increase in ABR threshold suggesting loss of cochlear compression with increasing stimulus levels
|
• increased threshold for distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DOPAE)
|
• early and progressive
|
