Ototoxic drugs may induce auditory sensory hair cell loss and permanent deafness; however, there is still no effective treatments or prevention strategies for this side effect. A recent study found that microRNA182 (miR-182) protected cochlear hair cells from ototoxic drug-induced apoptosisin vitro. However, it remains unclear whether miR-182 can protect drug-induced deafnessin vivo. In this study, we overexpressed cochlear miR-182 in Sprague-Dawley rats by trans-round window niche delivery of miR-182 mimics. The rats subsequently received intraperitoneal injections of kanamycin and furosemide to induce acute cochlear outer hair cell death and permanent deafness. Auditory brainstem response tests showed that miR-182 attenuated permanent threshold shifts. Consistent with this result, miR-182 reduced the loss of outer hair cells and missing stereocilia. miR-182 treatment also increased the level of phosphoinositide-3 kinase regulatory subunit p85α in the outer hair cells after co-administration of kanamycin and furosemide. Our findings suggest that miR-182 has powerful protective potential against ototoxic drug-induced acute auditory sensory hair cell loss and permanent deafness.
