Preventive/cure methods for Waardenburg-Shah syndrome with congenital hearing loss has not developed yet due to congenital loss of intermediate cells (melanocytes) in inner ears. The congenital hearing loss involving neurodegeneration of spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in Ednrb(-/-)-mice were significantly restored by introducing an Ednrb transgene under control of the dopamine beta-hydroxylase promoter (DBH-EdnrB-Tg). The results of this study suggest Ednrb expressed in SGNs can be a novel target for a drug development of hearing losses. Meanwhile, the preventive effect of DBH-EdnrB-Tg expressed in SGNs on age-related deafness has been affected by genetic backgrounds. Further study will be needed to investigate the effect of DBH-EdnrB-Tg on age-related deafness.
