| Research Abstract |
We investigated the association of oxidative stress and age-related hearing loss (AHL) using several transgenic mice in which the oxidative stress is enhanced or suppressed. We first examined whether reduction in manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) accelerated AHL. At 16 months, immunoreactivity of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine was significantly greater in Mn-SOD heterozygous knockout (HET) mice compared to WT mice, but that of 4-hydroxynonenal did not differ between them. Age-related ABR threshold shifts and the extent of cochlear degeneration did not differ between WT and HET mice, suggesting that decrease of Mn-SOD by half increases oxidative stress in the cochlea to some extent but does not accelerate AHL. In contrast, glutathion reductase knockout mice exhibited acceleration of ABR threshold shifts at high frequencies, suggesting that oxidization of glutathione is crucial in the development of AHL.
