ILDR1 deficiency causes degeneration of cochlear outer hair cells
... We observed expression of ILDR1 in hair cells in the organ of Corti of P2, P5, and P10 mice (Fig. 2) and found that ILDR1 was highly expressed in auditory sensory cells and regions indicating that ILDR1 might have a functional role in hearing. Compared with Ildr1+/2 mice, no significant differences ...

Auditory system
The auditory system is the sensory system for the sense of hearing. It includes both the sensory organs (the ears) and the auditory parts of the sensory system.
