Immortalized Organ of Corti Cell Line OC-k3 Description of Technology

    Available for nonexclusive licensing as a research material is a 
conditionally immortalized Organ of Corti cell line called OC-k3. 
Sensory cells from the auditory organ, the Organ of Corti, are 
terminally differentiated and cannot be cultured. Moreover, few of them 
can be isolated per cochlea and survive only few hours after isolation 
making impossible to use on them many biochemical and molecular biology 
techniques. OC-k3, expresses many markers of sensory cells and it has 
already been used as an in vitro model for a variety of studies.
