Analysis of Gene Expression in the Chicken Otocyst


ABSTRACT: The inner ear arises from multipotent placodal precursors that are gradually committed to the otic fate and further differentiate into all inner ear cell types, with the exception of a few neural crest-derived cells. The otocyst has a pivotal role during inner ear development: otic progenitor cells sub-compartmentalize into non-sensory regions and regions giving rise to prosensory domains where subsequently also hair cells differentiate. The genes and pathways underlying this progressive subdivision and differentiation process are not entirely known. The goal of this study was to identify a comprehensive set of genes expressed in the chicken otocyst using the serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) method. Our analysis revealed several hundred transcriptional regulators, potential signaling proteins, and receptors. We identified a substantial collection of genes that were previously known in the context of inner ear development, but we also found many new candidate genes, such as Sox4, Sox5, Sox7, Sox8, Sox11, and Sox18, which previously were not known to be expressed in the developing inner ear. Despite its obvious limitation of not being all-inclusive, the generated otocyst SAGE library is a practical bioinformatics tool to study otocyst gene expression and to identify candidate genes for developmental studies.
