Time-dependent gene expression analysis of the developing superior olivary complex
Abstract
Background: The superior olivary complex (SOC) is an essential center for spatial hearing. Results: Generation of a comprehensive qualitative and quantitative catalogue of the developmental changes in the SOC-related gene repertoire. Conclusion: Postnatal maturation of the SOC is shaped by extensive molecular changes. Significance: This work identifies strong candidate genes for normal and impaired hearing and genetic evidence for retrocochlear functions of deafness genes.
