First turn of a mouse cochlea labeled to show all cell nuclei (green) and calretinin (red) which occurs in neurons and in Inner Hair Cells (IHC). The single row of Inner Hair Cells arcs across the middle of the image. The 3 rows of Outer Hair Cell nuclei are observed in their characteristic arrangement paralleling the arc of IHC. Whole mount label embedded in epoxy resin, imaged with Bio-Rad MRC-1024 confocal microscope, 10x objective (Nikon). Glen MacDonald.
