Betahistine exerts a dose-dependent effect on cochlear stria vascularis blood flow in guinea pigs in vivo. [PDF]
Betahistine is a histamine H(1)-receptor agonist and H(3)-receptor antagonist that is administered to treat Menière's disease. Despite widespread use, its pharmacological mode of action has not been entirely elucidated. This study investigated the effect

PTEN inhibitor bisperoxovanadium protects against noise-induced hearing loss
Studies have shown that phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) participates in the regulation of cochlear hair cell survival. Bisperoxovanadium protects against neurodegeneration by inhibiting PTEN expression.

The distribution of N-acetylgalactosamine in the cochlear nucleus of the gerbil revealed by lectin binding with soybean agglutinin [PDF]
A horseradish peroxidase conjugated lectin from Glycine max (soy bean agglutinin; SBA) was used to characterise the distribution of N-acetylgalactosamine in the cochlear nucleus of the mongolian gerbil. SBA bound differentially to a variety of structures

Promotion of Noise-Induced Cochlear Injury by Toluene and Ethylbenzene in the Rat [PDF]
Ethylbenzene + toluene are known individually to have ototoxic potential at high exposure levels and with prolonged exposure times generally of 4-16 weeks. Both ethylbenzene + toluene are minor constituents of JP-8 jet fuel; this fuel has recently been determined to promote susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss.

Acoustic models of consonant recognition in cochlear implant users [PDF]
Normal-hearing adults have no difficulty in recognising consonants accurately, even in moderately adverse listening conditions. By contrast, users of multichannel cochlear implants have difficulty with the accurate perception of consonants, even in good ...

Nicotine induced ototoxicity in rat cochlear organotypic cultures
Epidemiological evidence has shown that smoking is associated with an increased risk of hearing loss. However, the underlying mechanisms regarding the impact of nicotine on the cochlea remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the cytotoxic effects

Recent findings and emerging questions in cochlear noise injury [PDF]
The lives of an estimated 10 million people in the United States are impacted by debilitating cochlear noise injury acquired in leisure or occupational settings (Kopke et al., 2007). Although noise injury has been intensively studied for decades, the only clinically successful preventive measure against noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) remains a ...
