Inner Ear Injected with AAV8 Virus Producing GFP and the SANS Protein

Caption

The cochlear sensory epithelium (organ of Corti), and the vestibular sensory epithelia, ampullar cristas (inset) of the inner ear injected with the AAV8 virus producing GFP and the SANS protein. The cochlear and vestibular sensory cells were immunostained for GFP and myosin VI and analyzed with a confocal microscope. The green and orange cells produce the protein of the therapeutic gene.
