Expression of carbonic anhydrase isoenzymes in the developing endolymphatic sac of the human fetus and the mouse embryo.

The distribution of carbonic anhydrase isoenzymes ( CA) was analyzed in the developing endolymphatic sac (ES) of the mouse embryo and human fetus using immunohistochemical method. The primordial ES epithelium was labelled with CA I and CA II, but was weakly labelled with CA III and CA V. In the thirteenth and fifteenth gestational day (GD) mice, the ES epithelium was positive for CA I and CA II. After seventeenth GD, the ES epithelium was however weakly positive for CA I and CA II. In the 11 and 12 week old human fetus, the ES epithelium was strongly labelled with CA I and CA II. In the 16 week old human fetus, the ES epithelium was however weakly positive for CA I and CA II. These results suggest that the fetal ES has an activity of CA and plays a role in the otoconial formation especially in the early stage during evolution.[1]
