Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss: From Pathological Mechanisms to Therapeutic Interventions

Sensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
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.

Viral-mediated Ntf3 overexpression disrupts innervation and hearing in nondeafened guinea pig cochleae

Molecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2016
Synaptopathy in the cochlea occurs when the connection between inner hair cells and the auditory nerve is disrupted, leading to impaired hearing and nerve degeneration. Experiments using transgenic mice have shown that overexpression of NT3 by supporting

The presynaptic ribbon maintains vesicle populations at the hair cell afferent fiber synapse [PDF]

, 2018
The ribbon is the structural hallmark of cochlear inner hair cell (IHC) afferent synapses, yet its role in information transfer to spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) remains unclear.

Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies

VIEW, EarlyView.
We divided the overall aging stage into “pre‐aging”, “aging compensation”, and “aging disability”. For each stage, we delineate the clinical presentations, biological phenomena, theoretical underpinnings, and key management priorities. Abstract Aging, as a gradual and largely irreversible biological process, characterized by declining organismal ...

Specific Influences of Early Acoustic Environments on Cochlear Hair Cells in Postnatal Mice

Neural Plasticity, 2018
The auditory function develops and matures after birth in many mammalian species. After hearing onset, environmental sounds exert profound and long-term effects on auditory functions.

Comorbidity Patterns Between Hearing Loss and Symptomatic Dizziness in Middle‐Aged and Older Adults

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore the comorbidity patterns between hearing loss and symptomatic dizziness (HL‐SD) in middle‐aged and older adults. Methods This cross‐sectional study used data from the 1999 to 2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). After excluding incomplete data, 2961 participants aged 40–69 were analyzed. Logistic

Age-related changes in olivocochlear efferent innervation in gerbils

Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience
IntroductionAge-related hearing difficulties have a complex etiology that includes degenerative processes in the sensory cochlea. The cochlea comprises the start of the afferent, ascending auditory pathway, but also receives efferent feedback innervation

Transplantation and survival of mouse inner ear progenitor/stem cells in the organ of Corti after cochleostomy of hearing-impaired guinea pigs: preliminary results

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2016
In mammals, damage to sensory receptor cells (hair cells) of the inner ear results in permanent sensorineural hearing loss. Here, we investigated whether postnatal mouse inner ear progenitor/stem cells (mIESCs) are viable after transplantation into the ...

Audio-vestibular symptoms in systemic autoimmune diseases [PDF]

, 2018
Immune-mediated inner ear disease can be primary, when the autoimmune response is against the inner ear, or secondary. The latter is characterized by the involvement of the ear in the presence of systemic autoimmune conditions. Sensorineural hearing loss

Epac1 Alleviates Senescence in Auditory Hair Cells via the Ferroptosis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in Epac1 and ferroptosis‐related proteins in aged mice and the House Ear Institute‐Organ of Corti 1 (HEI‐OC1) cells, with the goal of elucidating their potential role in age‐related hearing loss. Methods The expression of Epac1 in the cochlea of C57BL/6J mice was examined by using
