Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The cell viability after treatment of Tunicamycin was decreased in dose- and time- dependent manner. We defined this condition as the model of ER stress-induced auditory cell death. The findings that injured mitochondria surrounded by autophagosomes were confirmed under TEM. The expression of LC3-II was time-dependently increased in Tunicamycin-treated cells. These results mean that autophagy was consistently induced in Tunicamycin-treated cells. The expression of IP3R and CHOP was decreased after peaking at 12 hours after the treatment of Tunicamycin. The expression of BDNF and CAPS2 was time-dependently decreased in Tunicamycin-treated cells. The expression of Bcl-2 and Beclin1 was decreased in Tunicamycin-treated cells. The expression of Atoh1 and Myosin VIIA after treatment of Tunicamycin was time-dependently decreased. Our results lead to the suggestion that there is a signaling cross talk between ER stress response, IP3R activity through BDNF and autophagy in auditory cells.
