Idgenes are required for morphogenesis and cellular patterning in the developing mammalian cochlea.

Abstract：

:Inhibitor of differentiation and DNA-binding (Id) proteins, Id1 to Id4, function in the regulation of cellular proliferation and differentiation. Id proteins have been shown to interact with bHLH proteins and other proteins involved in regulating cellular proliferation and differentiation, suggesting a widespread regulatory function. Id1-3 are known to be expressed in the prosensory domain of developing cochlea. However, the roles of Id genes in cochlear development are not fully elucidated. The deficiency of any of the Id1-3 genes individually has little effect on the cochlear development, and therefore the functional redundancy among these genes have been presumed to explain the absence of phenotype. Here, we show that conditional knockout of Id1/2/3 genes (Id TKO) causes major defects in morphogenesis and cellular patterning in the development of mammalian cochlea. Id TKO cochlea was 82% shorter than control, and both decreased proliferation and increased cell death caused the hypomorph. Sox2-positive prosensory domain was formed in Id TKO cochlea, but the formation of the medial-lateral (central-peripheral) axis was disturbed; the boundary between the medial and lateral compartments in the prosensory domain was partially doubled; the number of inner hair cells per unit length increased, and the number of outer hair cells decreased. Furthermore, the lateral non-sensory compartment expressing Bmp4 and Lmo3 was missing. Thus, the patterning of the lateral epithelium was more affected than the medial epithelium. These results suggested that Id genes are crucial for morphogenesis of the cochlea duct and patterning of the lateral epithelium in the developing cochlea. Further analyses by quantitative RT-PCR and immunostaining using cochlear explants with a Bmp pathway inhibitor revealed that the Bmp-Id pathway originates from the lateral non-sensory compartment and promotes outer hair cell differentiation.
