Cell-Inspired Dual-Tandem Catalytic Nanoreactors Drive Targeted Hearing Protection

ABSTRACT: Sensorineural hearing loss is driven by irreversible disruption of cochlear homeostasis, where dysregulated redox balance, ionic regulation, and metabolic exhaustion are important factors that trigger hair cell degeneration and synaptic injury. Current antioxidant strategies lack the capacity to restore the coordinated enzymatic ROS-clearance pathways or effectively penetrate the blood–labyrinth barrier, limiting their therapeutic efficacy.

Mutations in unfolded protein response regulator ATF6 cause hearing and vision loss syndrome

Project description:Activating transcription factor 6 (Atf6) is a key regulator of the unfolded protein response (UPR) and is important for endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function and protein homeostasis in metazoan cells. Patients carrying loss-of-function ATF6 disease alleles develop the cone dysfunction disorder, achromatopsia. The impact of loss of ATF6 function on other cell types, organs, and diseases in people remains unclear. Here, we reported that progressive sensorineural hearing loss was a notable complaint in some patients carrying ATF6 disease alleles and that Atf6-/- mice also showed progressive auditory deficits affecting both genders. In mice with hearing deficits, we found disorganized stereocilia on hair cells and focal loss of outer hair cells. Transcriptomic analysis of Atf6-/- cochleae revealed marked induction of UPR, especially through the PERK arm. These findings identify ATF6 as an essential regulator of cochlear health and function. Furthermore, they supported that ATF6 inactivation in people causes progressive sensorineural hearing loss as part of a blindness-deafness genetic syndrome targeting hair cells and cone photoreceptors. Lastly, our genetic findings support ER stress as an important pathomechanism underlying cochlear damage and hearing loss with clinical implications for patient lifestyle modifications that minimize environmental/physiologic sources of ER stress to the ear.

MicroRNAs Involved in Aging of the Lateral Wall of the Cochlear Duct

Project description:Age-related hearing loss is a progressive sensorineural hearing loss that occurs as people get older. Degeneration of the organ of Corti and atrophy of the lateral wall of the cochlear duct (or scala media) in the inner ear are the two primary causes. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of short non-coding RNAs that regulate the expression of mRNA/protein targets, are important regulators of cellular senescence and aging. We examined the change of miRNA gene expression profiles in the lateral wall of the cochlear duct in two mouse strains during aging The totoal RNA was extracted from the lateral wall of cochlear duct from CBA/J and C57BL/6J mice at different ages. The expression profile of miRNAs was examined by miR microarray GeneChip.

Thyroid hormone augmentation accelerates hair cell maturation in human cochlear organoids

Project description:Outer and inner hair cells in the cochlea are essential for hearing, but are vulnerable to damage by genetic mutations and environmental insults, resulting in irreversible sensorineural hearing loss. Investigating these processes requires access to large numbers of human cochlear hair cells and the ability to precisely control genetic, biochemical, and environmental conditions. We recently established a new organoid system that recapitulates human cochlear differentiation. However, maturation of cochlear organoid cultures is inefficient, requiring several months to express the mature outer hair cell marker Prestin. To efficiently obtain fully functional outer hair cells, we tested the effects of the thyroid hormone thyroxine on hair cell maturation in human cochlear organoids. Thyroxine supplementation significantly increased the percentages of Prestin-positive hair cells in an age-dependent manner. Additionally, transcriptomic analyses revealed upregulation of mature outer hair cell genes and downregulation of immature hair cell genes in thyroxine-treated hair cells. Furthermore, some of the treated hair cells exhibited electromotility, a functional hallmark of mature outer hair cells. These results suggest that thyroid hormones accelerate the maturation of hair cells in human cochlear organoids, thereby useful for establishing an improved in vitro model for pre-clinical investigation on sensorineural hearing loss.

Redox activation of excitatory pathways in auditory neurons as mechanism of age-related hearing loss

Project description:Age-related hearing (ARHL) loss affects a large part of the human population with a major impact on our aging societies. Yet, underlying mechanisms are not understood, and no validated therapy or prevention exists. NADPH oxidases (NOX), are important sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cochlea and might therefore be involved in the pathogenesis of ARHL. Here we investigate ARHL in a mouse model. Wild type mice showed early loss of hearing and cochlear integrity, while animals deficient in the NOX subunit p22phox remained unaffected up to six months. Genes of the excitatory pathway were down-regulated in p22phox-deficient auditory neurons. Our results demonstrate that NOX activity leads to upregulation of genes of the excitatory pathway, to excitotoxic cochlear damage, and ultimately to ARHL. In the absence of functional NOXs, aging mice conserve hearing and cochlear morphology. Our study offers new insights into pathomechanisms and future therapeutic targets of ARHL.

ESRP1 mutations cause hearing loss due to defects in alternative splicing that disrupt cochlear development

Project description:Alternative splicing contributes to gene expression dynamics in many tissues, yet its role in auditory development remains unclear. We performed whole exome sequencing in individuals with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) and identified pathogenic mutations in Epithelial Splicing Regulatory Protein 1 (ESRP1). Patient derived induced pluripotent stem cells showed alternative splicing defects consistent with impaired ESRP1 function. To determine how mutations in ESRP1 cause hearing loss we evaluated Esrp1-/- mouse embryos and uncovered alterations in cochlear morphogenesis, auditory hair cell differentiation and cell fate specification. Transcriptome analysis revealed impaired expression and splicing of genes with essential roles in inner ear development and auditory function. In particular, aberrant splicing of Fgfr2 blocked stria vascularis formation due to erroneous ligand usage, which was corrected by reducing Fgf9 gene dosage. These findings implicate mutations in ESRP1 as a novel cause of SNHL and demonstrate the complex interplay between alternative splicing, inner ear development, and auditory function.

Compensatory interplay between clarin-1 and 1 clarin-2 deafness-associated proteins govern phenotypic variability in hearing

Project description:Usher syndrome type III (USH3), caused by mutations in CLRN1 encoding clarin-1, presents with progressive hearing loss, vestibular dysfunction, and retinitis pigmentosa, with striking phenotypic variability even among patients sharing identical mutations. Clarin-1's paralog, clarin-2 (encoded by CLRN2), is similarly implicated in hearing loss, suggesting potential functional interplay between these proteins. To investigate this relationship, we conducted RNA-sequencing of cochlear tissues from Clrn1-/-, Clrn2-/-, and Clrn1-/-Clrn2-/- double-knockout mice, revealing that clarin-1 and clarin-2 cooperatively regulate essential auditory processes, including mechanoelectrical transduction, ionic homeostasis, and synaptic organization. The double knockout mice exhibited synergistic disruption of these pathways, resulting in more severe hearing deficits than either single knockout, demonstrating that these proteins functionally compensate for one another. These findings suggest that CLRN2 variants may influence hearing outcomes in USH3 patients, supporting the integration of CLRN2 analysis into genetic diagnostics. By demonstrating that clarin-1 and clarin-2 share overlapping functional roles in the inner ear, this study redefines USH3 as a network-dependent disorder, offering new insights for therapeutic development. The RNA-seq dataset provides a comprehensive resource for exploring gene interactions in auditory function and advancing precision medicine approaches for hearing loss.

Heat-Shock Pathway Activation by TRC-051384 Protects Spiral Ganglion Neurons from Noise-Induced Hearing Loss [Spatial Transcriptomics]

Project description:Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a major public health problem caused by damage to cochlear hair cells, synapses, and spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs). However, effective treatments are completely lacking. We investigated cellular stress responses induced by loud noise in a mouse model of cochlear synaptopathy and tested whether selective activation of the dominant pathway identified could confer protection. RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics revealed that noise exposure elicited a robust but transient upregulation of endoplasmic reticulum chaperones and proteasome subunits in SGNs and supporting cells. To target this response, we administered TRC051384, a small-molecule activator of the heat shock transcription factor Hsf1, prior to noise exposure. TRC051384 crossed the blood–labyrinth barrier and reached the cochlea, induced heat shock protein gene expression, and restored ubiquitin–proteasome function in SGNs. Notably, TRC051384 treatment improved auditory brainstem response recovery, preserved Wave I amplitudes, and maintained ribbon synapse density. These findings establish proteotoxic stress in SGNs as a central driver of NIHL and identify HSF1 activation as a promising therapeutic strategy.
