Spiral ligament fibrocytes of the cochlea play homoeostatic roles in hearing and their degeneration contributes to hearing loss. Culturing fibrocytes in vitro provides a way to evaluate their functional characteristics and study possible therapies for hearing loss. We investigated whether in vivo characteristics of fibrocytes could be recapitulated in vitro by modifying the culture substrates and carried out proof of concept studies for potential transplantation of culture cells into the inner ear. Fibrocytes cultured from 4 to 5-we
