We have investigated the expression of chloride channels by examining the cochlea of mice
harboring the enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP) gene driven by an 11 kbp
human CLC-KB gene promoter. CLC-KB was seen not only on the stria vascularis but on
spiral ligament and limbal fibrocytes, interdental cells and satellite cells of spiral ganglion
neurons that are known to possess both Na, K-ATPase and the Na-K-Cl co-transporter
(NKCC). These results suggest that some fibrocytes possessing both the CLC-KB and the …
