Cochlear Neurotrophin-3 overexpression at mid-life prevents age-related inner hair cell synaptopathy and slows age-related hearing loss [PDF]
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is the most prevalent sensory deficit in the elderly. This progressive pathology often has psychological and medical comorbidities, including social isolation, depression, and cognitive decline.

Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss: From Pathological Mechanisms to Therapeutic Interventions
ABSTRACT Noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL), a significant non‐genetic form of hearing impairment, is primarily managed through the use of hearing aids and cochlear implants. However, the fundamental pathological mechanisms underlying NIHL remain inadequately addressed.

AMPKα Silencing Prevents Kanamycin‐Induced Ototoxicity in an Acute Mouse Model
Kanamycin plus furosemide (KM + FU) treatment (acute ototoxic model) causes AMPKα activation and rapidly induces cochlear outer hair cell (OHC) loss. Silencing AMPKα1 via posterior semicircular canal injection 48 h before KM + FU treatment reduces this damage, preserving OHCs and hearing.

Perceptual Consequences of Cochlear Deafferentation in Humans
Cochlear synaptopathy, a form of cochlear deafferentation, has been demonstrated in a number of animal species, including non-human primates. Both age and noise exposure contribute to synaptopathy in animal models, indicating that it may be a common type

Luteolin attenuates noise‐induced auditory hair cell loss, as well as TBHP‐induced oxidative stress and apoptosis. EGR1 modulates the transcription of SPRY4; the expression levels of both factors are upregulated following TBHP exposure, and this inductive effect is abrogated by luteolin treatment.

Synaptic ribbon dynamics after noise exposure in the hearing cochlea
Moderate noise exposure induces cochlear synaptopathy, the loss of afferent ribbon synapses between cochlear hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons, which is associated with functional hearing decline.

Immediate and delayed cochlear neuropathy after noise exposure in pubescent mice.
Moderate acoustic overexposure in adult rodents is known to cause acute loss of synapses on sensory inner hair cells (IHCs) and delayed degeneration of the auditory nerve, despite the completely reversible temporary threshold shift (TTS) and ...

Erratum to: Dynamics of cochlear synaptopathy after acoustic overexposure [PDF]
Erratum to: JARO DOI 10.1007/s10162-015-0510-3 Due to a publishing error during post-acceptance production, the second author (Jun Suzuki) was omitted from the manuscript. The correct author list is as displayed above.

Functional compensation between clarin‐1 and clarin‐2 in cochlear hair cells. Hearing loss associated with CLRN1 mutations shows striking phenotypic variability; however, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study reveals that clarin‐1 and clarin‐2 function cooperatively in cochlear hair cells to sustain mechanoelectrical ...

Comparisons of auditory brainstem response and sound level tolerance in tinnitus ears and non-tinnitus ears in unilateral tinnitus patients with normal audiograms. [PDF]
Recently, "hidden hearing loss" with cochlear synaptopathy has been suggested as a potential pathophysiology of tinnitus in individuals with a normal hearing threshold.
