All studies on primary neural degeneration in the cochlea have evaluated the end stages of degeneration or the indiscriminate destruction of both sensory cells and cochlear neurons. We have developed a model which selectively simulates the dystrophic changes denoting cochlear neural degeneration while sparing the cochlear hair cells. Such a model can be used to define more precisely the mechanism of presbycusis or the hearing loss in aging man.Twenty-two pigmented guinea pigs (200-250 gm) were perfused by the perilymphatic route as live preparations using fluorocitrate in various concentrations (15-250 ug/cc) and at different incubation times (5-150 minutes). The barium salt of DL fluorocitrate, (C6H4O7F)2Ba3, was reacted with 1.0N sulfuric acid to precipitate the barium as a sulfate. The perfusion medium was prepared, just prior to use, as follows: sodium phosphate buffer 0.2M, pH 7.4 = 9cc; fluorocitrate = 15-200 mg/cc; and sucrose = 0.2M.

Background: Chemotherapy is worldwide used nowadays, and its toxicity still remain a problemespecially toxicity to the ear (ototoxicity). Cisplatin (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum) is one of themost commonly used chemotherapy and highly potent in treating epithelial malignancies. Ototoxicitycaused by cisplatin is irreversible, progressive, bilateral, sensorineural hearing loss especially on highfrequency (4-8 KHz) accompanied by tinnitus. Purpose: To observe the cochlear outer hair cells damagein malignancies patients treated with cisplatin. Methods: This study is an observational analytic studywith prospective design to determine the influence of high dose cisplatin on cochlear outer hair cellsfunction. The research was carried out at the ENT-HNS Department, Hasan Sadikin General HospitalBandung, from November 2007 until June 2008. Audiometry, tympanometry, and distortion productotoacoustic emission (DPOAE) examinations were conducted before chemotherapy and DPOAE, andtimpanometry was again measured three days after first and second cycles of cisplatin administration. McNemar test was performed to calculate the effects of high-dose cisplatin to the cochlear outer haircells function. To compare pre and post-cisplatin on alteration of cochlear hair cells function, Wilcoxontest was used. Results: In this study 60 ears from 30 subjects that meet the inclusion criteria, consistedof 25 man (83.3%) and 5 women (16.7%). The prevalence of damaged cochlear outer hair cells were63% at first cycle and 70% at second cycle of cisplatin administration. The decline of cochlear outerhair cells function was significant (p<0.001). Conclusion: High-dose cisplatin decreases cochlear outerhair cells function in patients with malignant neoplasm. Abstrak : Latar belakang: Kemoterapi sekarang rutin digunakan secara klinis di seluruh dunia. Sejalan denganhal tersebut toksisitas kemoterapi, khususnya terhadap telinga saat ini menjadi perhatian. Sisplatin(cis-diamminedichloroplatinum) adalah salah satu obat kemoterapi yang paling banyak digunakandan paling manjur untuk terapi keganasan epitelial. Efek ototoksik sisplatin yaitu terjadi gangguandengar sensorineural yang irreversible, progresif, bilateral pada frekuensi tinggi (4-8 kHz), dan disertaidengan tinitus. Tujuan: Untuk menilai penurunan fungsi sel rambut luar koklea pada penderita tumorganas sesudah pemberian sisplatin dosis tinggi dengan menggunakan DPOAE. Metode: Studi analitikobservasional dengan rancangan prospektif di Bagian IK. THT-KL RS. Hasan Sadikin Bandung mulaibulan November 2007 sampai dengan Juni 2008. Pada penelitian ini dilakukan pemeriksaan audiometrinada murni, timpanometri, dan distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) prakemoterapi, kemudianDPOAE dan timpanometri diulang tiga hari sesudah siklus pertama dan kedua kemoterapi sisplatin. Datayang diperoleh diuji dengan uji McNemar dan uji Wilcoxon. Hasil: Dari penelitian didapat 60 telingadari 30 subjek penelitian yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi yang terdiri dari 25 laki-laki (83,3%) dan 5perempuan (16,7%). Insidens penurunan fungsi sel rambut luar koklea sebesar 63% (38 kasus) sesudahsiklus pertama dan 70% (42 kasus) sesudah siklus kedua. Hubungan penurunan fungsi sel rambut luarkoklea memberikan nilai yang sangat bermakna sejak pemberian siklus pertama (p<0,001). Kesimpulan:Pemberian sisplatin dosis tinggi pada penderita tumor ganas menyebabkan penurunan fungsi sel rambutluar koklea.Kata kunci: kemoterapi, sisplatin dosis tinggi, sel rambut luar koklea.

Bhlh Genes

We review the molecular basis of several transcription factors (Eya1, Sox2), including the three related genes coding basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH; see abbreviations) proteins (Neurog1, Neurod1, Atoh1) during the development of spiral ganglia, cochlear nuclei, and cochlear hair cells. Neuronal development requires Neurog1, followed by its downstream target Neurod1, to cross-regulate Atoh1 expression. In contrast, hair cells and cochlear nuclei critically depend on Atoh1 and require Neurod1 expression for interactions with Atoh1. Upregulation of Atoh1 following Neurod1 loss changes some vestibular neurons’ fate into “hair cells”, highlighting the significant interplay between the bHLH genes. Further work showed that replacing Atoh1 by Neurog1 rescues some hair cells from complete absence observed in Atoh1 null mutants, suggesting that bHLH genes can partially replace one another. The inhibition of Atoh1 by Neurod1 is essential for proper neuronal cell fate, and in the absence of Neurod1, Atoh1 is upregulated, resulting in the formation of “intraganglionic” HCs. Additional genes, such as Eya1/Six1, Sox2, Pax2, Gata3, Fgfr2b, Foxg1, and Lmx1a/b, play a role in the auditory system. Finally, both Lmx1a and Lmx1b genes are essential for the cochlear organ of Corti, spiral ganglion neuron, and cochlear nuclei formation. We integrate the mammalian auditory system development to provide comprehensive insights beyond the limited perception driven by singular investigations of cochlear neurons, cochlear hair cells, and cochlear nuclei. A detailed analysis of gene expression is needed to understand better how upstream regulators facilitate gene interactions and mammalian auditory system development.
