The overall objectives of this proposal are to improve the prevention and treatment of SNHL in Veterans. Research Design: We previously used in vitro screening to identify novel compounds that can protect hair cells (HCs) from ototoxic damage. We tested them in vivo against noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) and found partial protection. We also used high-resolution p... |
