Transforming growth factor β1 inhibition protects from noise-induced hearing loss

Transforming growth factor β1 inhibition protects from noise-induced hearing loss

Excessive exposure to noise damages the principal cochlear structures leading to hearing impairment. Inflammatory and immune responses are central mechanisms in cochlear defensive response to noise but, if unregulated, they contribute to inner ear damage and hearing loss. Transforming growth factor...
