Abstract
OBJECTIVE Verification that blind and excessive use of antioxidants leads to antioxidant stress which exacerbates cochlear cell damage. STUDY DESIGN Basic research. SETTING The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University. METHODS We compared and quantified hair cell-like house ear institute-organ of corti 1 (HEI-OC1) cell density, cell viability, and apoptosis caused by different concentrations of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) via Hoechst staining, Cell Counting Kit 8, Hoechst with propidium iodide staining, and Annexin V with propidium iodide (PI) staining. Apoptosis induced by high concentrations of M40403 and coenzyme Q10 in cochlear explants was analyzed and compared by cochlear dissection and activated caspase 3 labeling. RESULTS With the increase of NAC concentration (0-1000 μmol/L), cell density decreased consequently and reached the lowest at 1000 μmol/L (****P ≤ .0001). Cell viability is also declining (**P < .01). The number of Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled cells and PI-labeled cells increased with increasing NAC concentration after treatment of HEI-OC1 cells for 48 hours. The proportion of apoptotic cells also rose (*P < .05, **P < .01). Cochlear hair cells (HCs) treated with low concentrations of M40403 and coenzyme Q10 for 48 hours showed no damage. When the concentrations of M40403 and coenzyme Q10 were increased (concentrations>30 μmol/L), HC damage began, followed by a dose-dependent increase in HC loss (*P < .001, **P < .0001). Activated caspase-3 was clearly apparent in cochlear explants treated with 50 μmol/L M40403 and coenzyme Q10 compared with cochlear explants without added M40403 and coenzyme Q10. CONCLUSION These experimental results suggest that inappropriate application of antioxidants can cause severe damage to normal cochlear HCs.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a well-known platinum-based chemotherapy drug widely used to treat a variety of malignant tumors. However, cisplatin has serious side-effects include nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity, Cisplatin chemotherapy causes permanent hearing loss at least 40% of treated patients. Our results showed that 20 mM N-acetylcysteine (NAC) can completely protect 50 μM cisplatin-induced hair cell loss in rat cochlear culture and protects against cisplatin-induced hair cell loss in zebrafish in vivo. The fluorescence intensity of mitochondrial ROS significantly increased after the cultures were treated with 15 μM cisplatin for 48 h and was decreased in the group treated with 15 μM cisplatin add 20 mM NAC. In addition, the number of TUNEL positive hair cells was increased after the cultures were treated with 15 μM cisplatin for 48 h and there are null in cisplatin and NAC co-treated group.

Abstract
Significance: Oxidative stress contributes to vision, hearing and neurodegenerative disorders. Currently, no treatments prevent these disorders; therefore, there is an urgent need for redox modulators that can prevent these disorders. Recent Advances: Oxidative stress is associated with the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species, metal dyshomeostasis, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Here, we discuss the role that oxidative stress and metal dyshomeostasis play in hearing loss, visual impairments, and neurodegeneration and discuss the benefits of a new class of multifunctional redox modulators (MFRMs) that suppress sensory and neural degeneration. MFRMs not only reduce free radicals but also independently bind transition metals associated with the generation of hydroxyl radicals. The MFRMs redistribute zinc from neurotoxic amyloid beta zinc (Aβ:Zn) complexes to the cytoplasm, facilitating the degradation of Aβ plaques by matrix metalloprotease-2 (MMP-2). Although MFRMs bind copper (Cu1+, Cu2+), iron (Fe2+, Fe3+), zinc (Zn2+), and manganese (Mn2+), they do not deplete free cytoplasmic Zn+2 and they protect mitochondria from Mn+2-induced dysfunction. Oral administration of MFRMs reduce ROS-induced cataracts, protect the retina from light-induced degeneration, reduce neurotoxic Aβ:Zn plaque formation, and protect auditory hair cells from noise-induced hearing loss. Critical Issues: Regulation of redox balance is essential for clinical efficacy in maintaining sensory functions. Future Directions: Future use of these MFRMs requires additional pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamics, and toxicological data to bring them into widespread clinical use. Additional animal studies are also needed to determine whether MFRMs can prevent neurodegeneration, dementia, and other forms of vision and hearing loss.

Abstract
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) becomes an inevitable worldwide public health issue, and deafness treatment is urgently imperative; yet their current curative therapy is limited. Auditory neuropathies (AN) were proved to play a substantial role in SNHL recently, and spiral ganglion neuron (SGN) dysfunction is a dominant pathogenesis of AN. Auditory pathway is a high energy consumption system, and SGNs required sufficient mitochondria. Mitochondria are known treatment target of SNHL, but mitochondrion mechanism and pathology in SGNs are not valued. Mitochondrial dysfunction and pharmacological therapy were studied in neurodegeneration, providing new insights in mitochondrion-targeted treatment of AN. In this review, we summarized mitochondrial biological functions related to SGNs and discussed interaction between mitochondrial dysfunction and AN, as well as existing mitochondrion treatment for SNHL. Pharmaceutical exploration to protect mitochondrion dysfunction is a feasible and effective therapeutics for AN.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn) is an essential cofactor for many enzymes and thus plays an important role in normal growth and development. However, persistent exposure to high Mn concentrations can result in deleterious effects on not only the central nervous system but also peripheral nerves, including nerves associated with the auditory system. Our initial research on cochlear organotypic cultures in vitro showed that N-acetylcysteine (NAC) clearly decreases Mn-induced losses in hair cells (HCs), auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) and spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in a concentration-dependent manner. Salidroside (SAL) (p-hydroxyphenethyl-b-d-glucoside; C14H20O7), which is extracted from Rhodiola rosea L, has many pharmacological actions and antioxidative, antiaging, neuroprotective and anticancer effects. We hypothesized that SAL could also protect HCs, ANFs and SGNs from Mn injury. Cochlear organotypic cultures were treated with 1 mM Mn alone or combined with SAL (1-1000 μM). The neurofilament staining results showed that HCs, ANFs and SGNs were seriously damaged at high concentrations (100-1000 μM) but less damaged at low concentrations (1-10 μM). SAL may protect against 1 mM Mn-induced HC loss and axonal degeneration, suggesting that SAL could be a promising drug for clinical applications.

Abstract
Exposure to high levels of bilirubin in hyperbilirubinemia patients and animal models can result in sensorineural deafness. However, the mechanisms underlying bilirubin-induced damage to the inner ear, including the cochlear and vestibular organs, remain unknown. The present analyses of cochlear and vestibular organotypic cultures obtained from postnatal day 3 rats exposed to bilirubin at varying concentrations (0, 10, 50, 100, or 250 μM) for 24 h revealed that auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) and vestibular nerve endings were destroyed even at low doses (10 and 50 μM). Additionally, as the bilirubin dose increased, spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) and vestibular ganglion neurons (VGNs) exhibited gradual shrinkage in conjunction with nuclei condensation or fragmentation in a dose-dependent manner. The loss of cochlear and vestibular hair cells (HCs) was only evident in explants treated with the highest concentration of bilirubin (250 μM), and bilirubin-induced major apoptosis most likely occurred via the extrinsic apoptotic pathway. Thus, the present results indicate that inner ear neurons and fibers were more sensitive to, and exhibited more severe damage following, bilirubin-induced neurotoxicity than sensory HCs, which illustrates the underlying causes of auditory neuropathy and vestibulopathy in hyperbilirubinemia patients.

Abstract
A multielemental determination methodology in conjunction with an organic acid analysis that were supplemented with other stress parameters and an ultrastructural analysis used herein to study Verbascum olympicum Boiss. (Scrophulariaceae) under Mn stress. Uptake and accumulation characteristics of B, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, and Zn were evaluated in 8-week-old seedlings grown in Hoagland's nutrient solution and exposed to 5 (CK), 50, and 200 μM MnSO4 for 7 days. Hydrogen peroxide levels were determined to evaluate oxidative stress, and changes in compatible substance levels (total phenolic contents, glutathione and glutathione disulfide levels) were determined to assess antioxidant defense mechanisms. The distribution of manganese on the root surface was characterized by scanning electron microscopy images and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis. The levels of nicotinic acid, which is involved in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide biosynthesis, were determined in roots and leaves to assess tolerance mechanisms. V. olympicum exhibited the ability to cope with oxidative stress originating from excessive Mn, while increased Mn concentrations were observed in both roots and leaves. The translocation factor of B was the most affected among other studied elements under the experimental conditions. Total nicotinic acid levels exhibited a trend of reduction in the roots and leaves, which could be attributed to the appropriate metabolic progress associated with oxidative stress based on the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide cycle that may reach glutathione in response to manganese stress during plant growth.

Abstract
Mitochondria are essential organelles for many aspects of cellular homeostasis, including energy harvesting through oxidative phosphorylation. Alterations of mitochondrial function not only impact on cellular metabolism but also critically influence whole-body metabolism, health, and life span. Diseases defined by mitochondrial dysfunction have expanded from rare monogenic disorders in a strict sense to now also include many common polygenic diseases, including metabolic, cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, and neuromuscular diseases. This has led to an intensive search for new therapeutic and preventive strategies aimed at invigorating mitochondrial function by exploiting key components of mitochondrial biogenesis, redox metabolism, dynamics, mitophagy, and the mitochondrial unfolded protein response. As such, new findings linking mitochondrial function to the progression or outcome of this ever-increasing list of diseases has stimulated the discovery and development of the first true mitochondrial drugs, which are now entering the clinic and are discussed in this review.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn) is an indispensable cofactor for many enzymes and a basic factor for many reproductive and metabolic pathways. However, exposure to high concentrations of Mn can result in deleterious effects on the central nervous system and peripheral nerves, including nerves associated with the auditory system. Based on our studies of cochlear organotypic cultures, Mn exposure induces a significant loss of hair cells (HCs), auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) and spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in a concentration-dependent manner. Additionally, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a glutathione (GSH) provider and a direct scavenger of reactive oxygen species (ROS), clearly decreases Mn-induced ROS accumulation, caspase-3 activation and TUNEL staining, which indicate increased cell survival. Based on these results, Mn exposure exerts ototoxic and neurotoxic effects on the auditory system. Furthermore, 20mM NAC may prevent 1mM Mn-induced hair cell loss and axonal degeneration, indicating that NAC could be a promising drug for clinical applications.

Abstract
Carbaryl, a widely used carbamate-based insecticide, is a potent anticholinesterase known to induce delayed neurotoxicity following chronic exposure. However, its potential toxic effects on the cochlea, the sensory organ for hearing that contains cholinergic efferent neurons and acetylcholine receptors on the hair cells (HC) and spiral ganglion neurons has heretofore not been evaluated. To assess ototoxic potential of carbaryl, cochlear organotypic cultures from postnatal day 3 rats were treated with doses of carbaryl ranging from 50 to 500 μM for 48 h up to 96 h. Carbaryl damaged both the sensory HC and spiral ganglion neurons in a dose- and duration-dependent manner. HC and neuronal damage was observed at carbaryl concentrations as low as 50 μM after 96-h treatment and 100 μM after 48-h treatment. Hair cell was greatest in the high frequency basal region of the cochlea and progressively decreased towards the apex consistent with the majority of ototoxic drugs. In contrast, damage to the spiral ganglion neurons was of similar magnitude in the basal and apical regions of the cochlea. Carbaryl damage was characterized by soma shrinkage, nuclear condensation and fragmentation, and blebbing, morphological features of programmed cell death. Carbaryl upregulated the expression of executioner caspase-3 in HC and spiral ganglion neurons indicating that cellular damage occurred primarily by caspase-mediated apoptosis. These results suggest that chronic exposure to carbaryl and other carbamate anticholinesterases may be ototoxic. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Environ Toxicol 32: 956-969, 2017.

Abstract
Trimethyltin (TMT) is an occupational and environmental health hazard behaving as a potent neurotoxin known to affect the central nervous system as well as the peripheral auditory system. However, the mechanisms underlying TMT-induced ototoxicity are poorly understood. To elucidate the effects of TMT on the cochlea, a single injection of 4 or 8 mg/kg TMT was administered intraperitoneally to adult rats. The compound action potential (CAP) threshold was used to assess the functional status of the cochlea and histological techniques were used to assess the condition of the hair cells and auditory nerve fibers. TMT at 4 mg/kg produced a temporary CAP threshold elevation of 25–60 dB that recovered by 28 d post-treatment. Although there was no hair cell loss with the 4 mg/kg dose, there was a noticeable loss of auditory nerve fibers particularly beneath the inner hair cells. TMT at 8 mg/kg produced a large permanent CAP threshold shift that was greatest at the high frequencies. The CAP threshold shift was associated with the loss of outer hair cells and inner hair cells in the basal, high-frequency region of the cochlea, considerable loss of auditory nerve fibers and a significant loss of spiral ganglion neurons in the basal turn. Spiral ganglion neurons showed evidence of soma shrinkage and nuclear condensation and fragmentation, morphological features of apoptotic cell death. TMT-induced damage was greatest in the high-frequency, basal region of the cochlea and the nerve fibers beneath the inner hair cells were the most vulnerable structures.

Abstract
Methylmercury (MeHg) is a neurotoxic contaminant of our fish supply that has been linked to dopaminergic (DAergic) dysfunction that characterizes Parkinson's disease. We have previously shown that MeHg causes both morphological and behavioral changes in the Caenorhabditis elegans DAergic neurons that are associated with oxidative stress. We were therefore interested in whether the redox sensitive cofactor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) may be affected by MeHg and whether supplementation of NAD( + )may prevent MeHg-induced toxicities. Worms treated with MeHg showed depletion in cellular NAD( + )levels, which was prevented by NAD( + )supplementation prior to MeHg treatment. NAD( + )supplementation also prevented DAergic neurodegeneration and deficits in DAergic-dependent behavior upon MeHg exposure. In a mutant worm line that cannot synthesize NAD( + )from nicotinamide, MeHg lethality and DAergic behavioral deficits were more sensitive to MeHg than wildtype worms, demonstrating the importance of NAD( + )in MeHg toxicity. In wildtype worms, NAD( + )supplementation provided protection from MeHg-induced oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. These data show the importance of NAD( + )levels in the response to MeHg exposure. NAD( + )supplementation may be beneficial for MeHg-induced toxicities and preventing cellular damage involved in Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
Cobalt (Co) is a required divalent metal used in the production of metal alloys, batteries, and pigments and is a component of vitamin B12. Excessive uptake of Co is neurotoxic causing temporary or permanent hearing loss; however, its ototoxic effects on the sensory hair cells, neurons, and support cells in the cochlea are poorly understood. Accordingly, we treated postnatal day 3 rat cochlear organotypic cultures with various doses and durations of CoCl2 and quantified the damage to the hair cells, peripheral auditory nerve fibers, and spiral ganglion neurons (SGN). Five-day treatment with 250 μM CoCl2 caused extensive damage to hair cells and neurons which increased with dose and treatment duration. CoCl2 caused greater damage to outer hair cells than inner hair cells; damage was greatest in the base of the cochlea and decreased towards the base. CoCl2 increased expression of superoxide radical in hair cells and SGNs and SGN loss was characterized by nuclear condensation and fragmentation, morphological features of apoptosis. CoCl2 treatment increased the expression of caspase-3 indicative of caspase-mediated programmed cell death. These results identify hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons as the main targets of Co ototoxicity in vitro and implicate the superoxide radical as a trigger of caspase-mediated ototoxicity.

Abstract
NAD(+) has emerged as a vital cofactor that can rewire metabolism, activate sirtuins, and maintain mitochondrial fitness through mechanisms such as the mitochondrial unfolded protein response. This improved understanding of NAD(+) metabolism revived interest in NAD(+)-boosting strategies to manage a wide spectrum of diseases, ranging from diabetes to cancer. In this review, we summarize how NAD(+) metabolism links energy status with adaptive cellular and organismal responses and how this knowledge can be therapeutically exploited.

Abstract
Trimethyltin (TMT), which has a variety of applications in industry and agricultural, is a neurotoxin that is known to affect the auditory system as well as central nervous system of humans and experimental animals. However, the mechanisms underlying TMT-induced auditory dysfunction are poorly understood. To gain insights into the neurotoxic effect of TMT on the peripheral auditory system, we treated cochlear organotypic cultures with concentrations of TMT ranging from 5 to 100 μM for 24 h. Interestingly, TMT preferentially damaged auditory nerve fibers and spiral ganglion neurons in a dose-dependent manner, but had no noticeable effects on the sensory hair cells at the doses employed. TMT-induced damage to auditory neurons was associated with significant soma shrinkage, nuclear condensation, and activation of caspase-3, biomarkers indicative of apoptotic cell death. Our findings show that TMT is exclusively neurotoxicity in rat cochlear organotypic culture and that TMT-induced auditory neuron death occurs through a caspase-mediated apoptotic pathway.

Abstract
Mammalian forkhead transcription factors of the O class (FoxO) are exciting targets under consideration for the development of new clinical entities to treat metabolic disorders and diabetes mellitus (DM). DM, a disorder that currently affects greater than 350 million individuals globally, can become a devastating disease that leads to cellular injury through oxidative stress pathways and affects multiple systems of the body. FoxO proteins can regulate insulin signaling, gluconeogenesis, insulin resistance, immune cell migration, and cell senescence. FoxO proteins also control cell fate through oxidative stress and pathways of autophagy and apoptosis that either lead to tissue regeneration or cell demise. Furthermore, FoxO signaling can be dependent upon signal transduction pathways that include silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (S. cerevisiae) (SIRT1), Wnt, and Wnt1 inducible signaling pathway protein 1 (WISP1). Cellular metabolic pathways driven by FoxO proteins are complex, can lead to variable clinical outcomes, and require in-depth analysis of the epigenetic and post-translation protein modifications that drive FoxO protein activation and degradation.

Endogenous concentrations of biologically relevant metals in rat brain and cochlea determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Biometals 2014; 28:187-96. [PMID: 25537479 DOI: 10.1007/s10534-014-9814-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2014] [Accepted: 12/13/2014] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn) are essential nutrients which aid in the proper functioning of cells, but high concentrations of these metals can be toxic to various organs. Little is known about the endogenous concentrations of these metals in the cochlea, the auditory portion of the inner ear which is extremely small and difficult to access. To fill this gap, a trace quantitative digestion and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry method was developed to determine the concentrations of these metals in the stria vascularis, organ of Corti, and spiral ganglion, three critically important parts of the cochlea (≤ 1.5 mg); these values were compared to those in specific brain regions (≤ 20 mg) of rats. Rats were sacrificed and the cochlea and brain regions were carefully isolated, digested, and analyzed to determine baseline concentrations of Mn, Fe, Cu, and Zn. In the cochlea, Mn, Fe, Cu, and Zn concentrations ranged from 3.2-6, 73-300, non-detect, and 13-200 µg/g respectively. In the brain, Mn, Fe, Cu, and Zn concentrations ranged from 1.3-2.72, 21-120, 5.0-10.6, and 33-47 µg/g respectively. Significant differences (p < 0.05) were observed between the tissue types within the cochlea, and between the cochlea and brain. This validated method provides the first quantitative assessment of these metals in the three key subdivisions of the cochlea compared to the levels in the brain; Mn, Fe, and Zn levels were considerably higher in the cochlea than brain.
