Programmed cell death in the development of the mouse external auditory canal

Programmed cell death (PCD) is an essential event for development. The purpose of this work was to ascertain how PCD, in vivo designated apoptosis, is involved in the development of the external auditory canal. We performed a time sequence study of the distribution of apoptosis during the development of external auditory canal (EAC) of the mouse.
