Journal ArticleDOI

Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) as a target of oxidative stress-mediated damage: cochlear and cortical responses after an increase in antioxidant defense.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that antioxidant treatment restores auditory cortical neuronal morphology and hearing function by reducing the noise-induced redox imbalance in the cochlea and the deafferentation effects upstream the acoustic pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vivo protective effect of ferulic acid against noise-induced hearing loss in the guinea-pig

TL;DR: Functional in vivo evidence that FA limits noise-induced hearing loss is provided and the antioxidant properties of FA as free-radical scavenger are confirmed and a role of HO-1 as an additional mediator against noise- induced ototoxicity is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular targets for anticancer redox chemotherapy and cisplatin-induced ototoxicity: the role of curcumin on pSTAT3 and Nrf-2 signalling.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates that curcumin attenuates all stages of tumour progression and, by targeting pSTAT3 and Nrf-2 signalling pathways, provides chemosensitisation to cisplatin in vitro and protection from its ototoxic adverse effects in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rosmarinic acid up-regulates the noise-activated Nrf2/HO-1 pathway and protects against noise-induced injury in rat cochlea.

TL;DR: The herb-derived phenol rosmarinic acid (RA) attenuates noise-induced hearing loss, reducing threshold shift, and promotes hair cell survival, and enhances the endogenous antioxidant defenses, as shown by decreased superoxide production, reduced expression of 4-HNE, and up-regulation of SODs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Curcuma longa (curcumin) decreases in vivo cisplatin-induced ototoxicity through heme oxygenase-1 induction.

TL;DR: This preclinical study demonstrates that systemic curcumin attenuates ototoxicity and provides molecular evidence for a role of HO-1 as an additional mediator in attenuating cisplatin-induced damage.
