Abstract Type I spiral ganglion neurons are peripheral neurons essential for hearing perception. While they can be subdivided in mice based on characteristic gene expression patterns, detailed examinations of these subtypes in primates and humans are lacking. In this study, we investigated the developmental subtypes of spiral ganglion neurons in the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus). We confirmed that Type I spiral ganglion can be divided based on the characteristic gene expression patterns of several marker genes. However, some combinations of these genes differ from those in rodents, suggesting common marmoset's suitability for advancing our understanding of human cochlear development. Additionally, identifying the essential time points for subtype specifications and subsequent maturation will aid in studying the primate-specific developmental biology of the inner ear. This could lead to new treatment strategies for hearing loss in humans and be valuable for studying age-related hearing loss, as well as designing regenerative therapies. |
