The present study was designed to investigate the role and mechanism of the Apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC) in protecting the neomycin-induced hair cell damage. HEI-OC1 cells and basilar membrane culture were applied to determine the effect of ARC. Plasmid transfection was used to regulate the ARC or Ras expression. We have found the ARC overexpression in HEI-OC1 cells can increase the cell viability and decrease cell apoptosis after neomycin injury. The cleaved caspase 3 was reduced in ARC overexpression group after neomycin treatment. The p-CREB expression was increased in ARC overexpression group, while the p-c-Jun expression was decreased after neomycin incubation. In HEI-OC1 cells and basilar membranes, JNK and Ras inhibitions both can reduce ARC expression, and Ras overexpression can increase the ARC expression. This study indicates that ARC can protect the hair cells from neomycin-induced apoptosis through Ras/JNK signaling pathway. Our findings provide new insights in preventing cochlear HC death after drug-induced ototoxicity.

Objectives: Deletion of gene in mice has been linked to progressive hearing loss and degeneration of cochlear cells. Cisplatin, an antitumor drug, can cause various side effects, including ototoxicity. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of on cisplatin-induced hearing impairment in mice and to explore the possible mechanism.

Hearing loss is caused by many factors including ototoxic drug-induced hair cell damage. Ombuoside, an antioxidant isolated from , has been suggested to serve as a new neuroprotective drug. However, the role of ombuoside in protecting inner ear hair cells from ototoxic drug-induced damage has not been investigated.

Hidden hearing loss (HHL) is characterized by normal audiometric thresholds but impaired auditory function, particularly in noisy environments. In vivo, we employed auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing and ribbon synapses counting to assess changes in mouse hearing function, and observed the morphology of hair cells through scanning electron microscopy. SRT1720 was administered to the cochlea via round window injection.

Cisplatin is widely used in anti-tumor therapy, but the ototoxicity caused by high-dose cisplatin often limits its efficacy, and the specific mechanism of cisplatin-induced cochlear damage is still not perfect. The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is closely related to aging, embryonic development, and apoptosis. Meanwhile, B lymphoma Moloney murine leukemia virus insertion region 1 (BMI1) plays a certain role in the evolution and development of the inner ear and the occurrence and development of inner ear-related diseases.
