The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the inner ear over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a mechanoreceptor, a cell specialized to transduce mechanical stimuli and relay that information centrally in the nervous system. The process whereby relatively unspecialized cells, acquire specialized structural and/or functional features of inner ear receptor cells. Inner ear receptor cells are mechanorecptors found in the inner ear responsible for transducing signals involved in balance and sensory perception of sound. Differentiation of new inner ear sensory hair cells to replace those lost or destroyed by injury. The regrowth of lost or destroyed mechanosensory epithelia. Differentiation of new mechanoreceptors to replace those lost or destroyed by injury. The regrowth of lost or destroyed inner ear sensory epithelia.
