Effects of subchronic IDPN on canal- and otolithic- dependent VOR.

(A) Illustration of the angular horizontal vestibulo-ocular reflex (aVOR) set-up. All tests are performed in complete dark. (B) Examples of velocity aVOR traces in response to table rotations (1 Hz at 30°/s) recorded in the dark in an IDPN mouse before (W0, corresponding gain of 0.785; VAF of 0.98), after 6 weeks of treatment (W6, gain: 0.14; VAF: 0.61) and 6 weeks of washout (W12, gain:0.48; VAF: 0.92). Right movement is represented up. (C) Mean aVOR gain of SHAM (n=22) and IDPN (n=21) mice during the protocol (repeated measures ANOVA). (D) Illustration of the ocular- counter roll (OCR) set-up. (E) Examples of raw OCR traces at W0, W6 and W12 in a IDPN mouse recorded in the dark. Tilt to the right is represented up (positive values). (Left) eye elevation is represented up. (F) Mean OCR gain of SHAM (n=14) and IDPN (n=13) mice (mix-model ANOVA). We note that there was a significant difference between SHAM and IDPN during the initial measurements at W0. However, at this time point mice were not yet separated into different groups. This incidental difference completely disappeared on the measurement performed at W2. (*p<0.05; **p<0.01; ***p<0.001). Error bars represent ± SEM.

Comparison of the dynamics of canalar and otolithic loss of function.

(A) Evolution of the Mean Gain of the aVOR (1 Hz) and OCR responses of IDPN mice (n=13) during the treatment and washout periods. (B) Individual gains for 1 Hz aVOR (left) and OCR (right) of the 13 IDPN mice, identified with similar symbols. The grey symbols in the left panel correspond to aVOR gain values associated with VAF <0.5. (C, D) Individual ΔaVOR gains as a function of individual ΔOCR gains at W6 (C) and W12 (D) compared to W0, for SHAM (n=14) and IDPN (n=13) mice. The linear regression corresponds to IDPN values is represented, as well as the 50% confidence interval of each group (shaded areas). The symbols for each animal are the same in panels B, C, and D. (*p<0.05; **p<0.01; ***p<0.001). Error bars represent ± SEM.

Immuno-labelling of HC in the central regions of the horizontal SCC ampulla and striolar region of the utricule Macula.

(A, C) Immunolabelling of type I HC (Spp1 + and CASPR1+), type II HC (Calre +), or all HC (Myo7a) for the SHAM, IDPN W6 and IDPN W12 groups in the central ampulla of the horizontal canal (A1) and central utricular maculae (C1). Cell count at W6 and W12 in the central horizontal ampulla (A2 and A3) and central utricular maculae (C2 and C3) for individual mice (Kruskal Wallis test). (B1, D1) Individual number of central Spp1 + type I HC, CASPR1 + type I HC and Calre + type II HC, or all HC(Myo7a) as a function of the aVOR gain (B1) or OCR gain (D1) at W6 (circle) and W12 (squares) groups. The linear regressions correspond to all individuals (n=23 mice). (B2, D2) Comparison of the number of CASPR1 type I HC as a function of the aVOR (B2) gain or OCR gain (D2) at W6 (black and circle) and at W12 (pink and square) for each IDPN mice of the W12 group (n=8). Note that all points are shifted toward the regression line (redrawn from respectively B1 and D1), indicating that the number of cells at W12 better correlates with the recovered aVOR. (*p<0.05; **p<0.01; ***p<0.001). Error bars represent ± SEM.
