Host | Mouse |
Model | Immortalised Line |
Relevance |
Derived from E13 embryonic Immortomouse organs of Corti. The immortalizing gene was activated in organotypic cultures of auditory sensory epithelia at E13, the thirteenth day of embryonic development, before the hair cells had started to differentiate after their last mitoses. The cell line expresses characteristic hair cell markers: the transcription factor Brn3.1, the a9 subunit of the acetylcholine receptor, the stereociliary protein fimbrin and the myosins VI and VIIA. These hair cell precursors permit functional studies of cochlear genes and provide the means to explore therapeutic methods of stimulating auditory hair cell regeneration, substantially facilitate auditory research, drug development, and the isolation of critical molecules involved in hair cell biology. |
Conditional | Yes |
Conditional Description | Cells derived from C57 Bl6 mice carrying a stable insertion of the conditional immortalising gene H-2Kb-tsA58, which describes a temperature-sensitive variant of the SV40 immortalising gene that encodes the large tumour antigen under the control of the γ–interferon-sensitive MHC Class 1 promoter. The transgenic mouse is called the Immortomouse™ (Jat et al 1991 Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 88, 5096-5100). |
