LncRNA H19 inhibits oxidative stress injury of cochlear hair cells by regulating miR-653-5p/SIRT1 axis.

ABSTRACT: Oxidative stress is one of the important mechanisms of inner ear cell damage, which can lead to age-related hearing loss (ARHL). LncRNA H19 is significantly downregulated in the cochlea of old mouse, however, the role of H19 in the development of ARHL remains unclear. In this study, we aim to investigate the expression and function of H19 in oxidative stress injury of cochlear hair cells induced by HO. RT-qPCR and western blot analysis confirms that HEI-OC1 cells stimulated with HO decreases the expressions of H19 and SIRT1, but increases the expression of miR-653-5p. Overexpression of H19 could increase cell viability, ATP level and mitochondrial membrane potential, but reduce mitochondrial ROS generation and cell apoptosis ratio in HO-stimulated HEI-OC1 cells. MiR-653-5p is a target of H
