TLDR
An in vivo cochlear imaging method is developed that enables real-time tracking of ototoxic drug transport into the cochlea in hearing adult mice and provides a therapeutic target to eliminate drug-induced hearing loss.Abstract:
Significance Ototoxicity is a major side effect of aminoglycoside (AG) antibiotics; however, the mechanism by which this drug enters the cochlea and target hair cells (HCs) is not fully understood. Here, we developed an in vivo cochlear imaging method that enables real-time tracking of ototoxic drug transport into the cochlea in hearing adult mice. The time-lapse monitoring of drugs identified megalin as the major transporter of AG into the endolymph and the mechanotransducer channels as the portal into the HCs. Blocking megalin in vivo prevents AG-induced ototoxicity. Therefore, this study identifies an AG uptake pathway into the cochlea and provides a therapeutic target to eliminate drug-induced hearing loss.read more

Identifying targets to prevent aminoglycoside ototoxicity
TL;DR: Aminoglycosides are potent antibiotics that are commonly prescribed worldwide and carry significant risks of ototoxicity by directly causing inner ear hair cell degeneration as mentioned in this paper , however, despite their effectiveness, there are currently no approved antidotes.

The role of the stria vascularis in neglected otologic disease
TL;DR: The stria vascularis (SV) has been shown to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of many diseases associated with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), including age-related hearing loss, noise-induced hearing loss and drug-induced hearing loss as discussed by the authors .

Auditory-nerve response from cats raised in a low-noise chamber.
TL;DR: The data suggest that there is a significant amount of "normal pathology" in the high-CF units from routine animals, and the possible significance of a classification of auditory-nerve units according to spontaneous rate is discussed.

TL;DR: The results indicate that TMC1 and TMC2 are necessary for hair cell mechanotransduction and may be integral components of the mechanot Transmembrane channel-like 1 complex and suggest that persistent Tmc2 expression in vestibular hair cells may preserve Vestibular function in humans with hearing loss caused by Tmc1 mutations.
