OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship of gentamicin-induced cochlear damage with autophagy-related protein LC3, beclin1, Na(+-)K(+-)2Cl(-) cotransporter (NKCC1) mRNA and endothelin-1 (ET-1), and investigate the protective mechanism of PPTA against gentamicin-induced cochlear damage. METHODS: Sixty guinea pigs were randomly divided into control group (with saline and artificial perilymph injections), model group (with gentamicin and artificial perilymph injections), concurrent treatment group (with gentamicin and PPTA injections), model control group (with artificial perilymph injection 7 days after gentamicin injection) and delayed treatment group (with PPTA injection 7 days after gentamicin injection). Saline and gentamicin (160 mg/kg) were injected intraperitoneally, and artificial perilymph and PPTA were injected into the otocysts on a daily basis for 7 consecutive days. Hearing impairment of the guinea pigs was analyzed with ABR, and the protein expressions of beclin1 and LC3 in cochlear tissue were tested. The expression of NKCC1 mRNA was detected with RT-PCR, and the expression of ET-1 was detected immunohistochemically. RESULTS: The ABR thresholds in the model group and model control group were similar (P>0.05) , but significantly higher than those in the other 3 groups (P<0.05); the threshold was significantly lower in concurrent treatment group than in delayed treatment group (P<0.05). Compared with those in the other 4 groups, the expressions of LC3 II, beclin1, an...
