Abstract
PURPOSE Cisplatin is a low-cost clinical anti-tumor drug widely used to treat solid tumors. However, its use could damage cochlear hair cells, leading to irreversible hearing loss. Currently, there appears one drug approved in clinic only used for reducing ototoxicity associated with cisplatin in pediatric patients, which needs to further explore other candidate drugs. METHODS Here, by screening 1967 FDA-approved drugs to protect cochlear hair cell line (HEI-OC1) from cisplatin damage, we found that Tedizolid Phosphate (Ted), a drug indicated for the treatment of acute infections, had the best protective effect. Further, we evaluated the protective effect of Ted against ototoxicity in mouse cochlear explants, zebrafish, and adult mice. The mechanism of action of Ted was further explored using RNA sequencing analysis and verified. Meanwhile, we also observed the effect of Ted on the anti-tumor effect of cisplatin. RESULTS Ted had a strong protective effect on hair cell (HC) loss induced by cisplatin in zebrafish and mouse cochlear explants. In addition, when administered systemically, it protected mice from cisplatin-induced hearing loss. Moreover, antitumor studies showed that Ted had no effect on the antitumor activity of cisplatin both in vitro and in vivo. RNA sequencing analysis showed that the otoprotective effect of Ted was mainly achieved by inhibiting phosphorylation of ERK. Consistently, ERK activator aggravated the damage of cisplatin to HCs. CONCLUSION Collectively, these results showed that FDA-approved Ted protected HCs from cisplatin-induced HC loss by inhibiting ERK phosphorylation, indicating its potential as a candidate for preventing cisplatin ototoxicity in clinical settings.

Abstract
The disruption of ribbon synapses in the cochlea impairs the transmission of auditory signals from the cochlear sensory receptor cells to the auditory cortex. Although cisplatin-induced loss of ribbon synapses is well-documented, and studies have reported nitration of cochlear proteins after cisplatin treatment, yet the underlying mechanism of cochlear synaptopathy is not fully understood. This study tests the hypothesis that cisplatin treatment alters the abundance of cochlear synaptosomal proteins, and selective targeting of nitrative stress prevents the associated synaptic dysfunction. Auditory brainstem responses of mice treated with cisplatin showed a reduction in amplitude and an increase in latency of wave I, indicating cisplatin-induced synaptic dysfunction. The mass spectrometry analysis of cochlear synaptosomal proteins identified 102 proteins that decreased in abundance and 249 that increased in abundance after cisplatin treatment. Pathway analysis suggested that the dysregulated proteins were involved in calcium binding, calcium ion regulation, synapses, and endocytosis pathways. Inhibition of nitrative stress by co-treatment with MnTBAP, a peroxynitrite scavenger, attenuated cisplatin-induced changes in the abundance of 27 proteins. Furthermore, MnTBAP co-treatment prevented the cisplatin-induced decrease in the amplitude and increase in the latency of wave I. Together, these findings suggest a potential role of oxidative/nitrative stress in cisplatin-induced cochlear synaptic dysfunction.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the impact of rapamycin on the differentiation of hair cells. METHODS Murine cochlear organoids were derived from cochlear progenitor cells. Different concentrations of rapamycin were added into the culture medium at different proliferation and differentiation stages. RESULTS Rapamycin exhibited a concentration-dependent reduction in the proliferation of these inner ear organoids. Nevertheless, organoids subjected to a 10-nM dose of rapamycin demonstrated a markedly increased proportion of hair cells. Furthermore, rapamycin significantly upregulated the expression of markers associated with both hair cells and supporting cells, including ATOH1, MYO7A, and SOX2. Mechanistic studies revealed that rapamycin preferentially suppressed cells without Sox2 expression during the initial proliferation stage, thereby augmenting and refining the population of SOX2+ progenitors. These enriched progenitors were predisposed to differentiate into hair cells during the later stages of organoid development. Conversely, the use of the mTOR activator MHY 1485 demonstrated opposing effects. CONCLUSION Our findings underscore a practical strategy for enhancing the generation of inner ear organoids with a low dose of rapamycin, achieved by enriching SOX2+ progenitors in an in vitro setting.

Abstract
Hearing or balance loss are disabling conditions that have a serious impact in those suffering them, especially when they appear in children. Their ultimate cause is frequently the loss of function of mechanosensory hair cells in the inner ear. Hair cells can be damaged by environmental insults, like noise or chemical agents, known as ototoxins. Two of the most common ototoxins are life-saving medications: cisplatin against solid tumors, and aminoglycoside antibiotics to treat infections. However, due to their localization inside the temporal bone, hair cells are difficult to study in mammals. As an alternative animal model, zebrafish larvae have hair cells similar to those in mammals, some of which are located in a fish specific organ on the surface of the skin, the lateral line. This makes them easy to observe in vivo and readily accessible for ototoxins or otoprotective substances. These features have made possible advances in the study of the mechanisms mediating ototoxicity or identifying new potential ototoxins. Most importantly, the small size of the zebrafish larvae has allowed screening thousands of molecules searching for otoprotective agents in a scale that would be highly impractical in rodent models. The positive hits found can then start the long road to reach clinical settings to prevent hearing or balance loss.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11101932. [PMID: 36290653 PMCID: PMC9599043 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11101932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 09/20/2022] [Accepted: 09/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Nitrobindins (Nbs) are all-β-barrel heme proteins and are present in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Although their function(s) is still obscure, Nbs trap NO and inactivate peroxynitrite. Here, the kinetics of peroxynitrite scavenging by ferric Danio rerio Nb (Dr-Nb(III)) in the absence and presence of CO2 is reported. The Dr-Nb(III)-catalyzed scavenging of peroxynitrite is facilitated by a low pH, indicating that the heme protein interacts preferentially with peroxynitrous acid, leading to the formation of nitrate (~91%) and nitrite (~9%). The physiological levels of CO2 dramatically facilitate the spontaneous decay of peroxynitrite, overwhelming the scavenging activity of Dr-Nb(III). The effect of Dr-Nb(III) on the peroxynitrite-induced nitration of L-tyrosine was also investigated. Dr-Nb(III) inhibits the peroxynitrite-mediated nitration of free L-tyrosine, while, in the presence of CO2, Dr-Nb(III) does not impair nitro-L-tyrosine formation. The comparative analysis of the present results with data reported in the literature indicates that, to act as efficient peroxynitrite scavengers in vivo, i.e., in the presence of physiological levels of CO2, the ferric heme protein concentration must be higher than 10−4 M. Thus, only the circulating ferric hemoglobin levels appear to be high enough to efficiently compete with CO2/HCO3− in peroxynitrite inactivation. The present results are of the utmost importance for tissues, like the eye retina in fish, where blood circulation is critical for adaptation to diving conditions.

Abstract
Cisplatin (CDDP) is a well-known chemotherapeutic drug approved for various cancers. However, CDDP accumulates in the inner ear cochlea via organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) and causes ototoxicity, which is a major clinical limitation. Since lansoprazole (LPZ), a proton pump inhibitor, is known to inhibit OCT2-mediated transport of CDDP, we hypothesized that LPZ might ameliorate CDDP-induced ototoxicity (CIO). To test this hypothesis, we utilized in vivo fluorescence imaging of zebrafish sensory hair cells. The fluorescence signals in hair cells in zebrafish treated with CDDP dose-dependently decreased. Co-treatment with LPZ significantly suppressed the decrease of fluorescence signals in zebrafish treated with CDDP. Knockout of a zebrafish homolog of OCT2 also ameliorated the reduction of fluorescence signals in hair cells in zebrafish treated with CDDP. These in vivo studies suggest that CDDP damages the hair cells of zebrafish through oct2-mediated accumulation and that LPZ protects against CIO, possibly inhibiting the entry of CDDP into the hair cells via oct2. We also evaluated the otoprotective effect of LPZ using a public database containing adverse event reports. The analysis revealed that the incidence rate of CIO was significantly decreased in patients treated with LPZ. We then retrospectively analyzed the medical records of Mie University Hospital to examine the otoprotective effect of LPZ. The incidence rate of ototoxicity was significantly lower in patients co-treated with LPZ compared to those without LPZ. These retrospective findings suggest that LPZ is also protective against CIO in humans. Taken together, co-treatment with LPZ may reduce the risk of CIO.

Abstract
Nitrative stress is increasingly recognized as a critical mediator of apoptotic cell death in many pathological conditions. The accumulation of nitric oxide along with superoxide radicals leads to the generation of peroxynitrite that can eventually result in the nitration of susceptible proteins. Nitrotyrosine is widely used as a biomarker of nitrative stress and indicates oxidative damage to proteins. Ototoxic insults, such as exposure to noise and ototoxic drugs, enhance the generation of 3-nitrotyrosine in different cell types in the cochlea. Nitrated proteins can disrupt critical signaling pathways and eventually lead to apoptosis and loss of sensory receptor cells in the cochlea. Accumulating evidence shows that selective targeting of nitrative stress attenuates cellular damage. Anti-nitrative compounds, such as peroxynitrite decomposition catalysts and inducible nitric oxide synthase inhibitors, prevent nitrative stress-mediated auditory damage. However, the role of nitrative stress in acquired hearing loss and its potential significance as a promising interventional target is yet to be fully characterized. This review provides an overview of nitrative stress mechanisms, the induction of nitrative stress in the auditory tissue after ototoxic insults, and the therapeutic value of targeting nitrative stress for mitigating auditory dysfunction.
