Localization of IE1-positive cells in the labyrinths in the MCMV-i.c.-infected mice. Newborn mice were i.c. infected with MCMV and killed 6 days after infection. (a) Low-power view of labyrinth, HE stain. SV, scala vestibuli; (b) IE1-positive cells in the adjacent section. Men, meninges; Po, pons. (c) IE1-positive cells in scala tympani (ST), and lack of infected cells in scala media (SM), including Corti organ (CO). (d) IE1-positive cells along the cochlear nerve (CN).
