Of note, the DMSO treatment group, which reflects the effect of shHic1 induction alone at D20 on Atoh1-Enh-Prom-NLuc activity, showed a trend consistent with FACS-based results, yet did not achieve statistical significance (p = 0.064), which likely reflects the limitations of the luciferase-based assay, which quantifies bulk expression changes in unsorted organoid populations.
