Sensory hair cells of the inner ear detect mechanical stimuli produced by sound (in the cochlea) or by motion and changes in head position (in the vestibular system) and translate them into neural signals. The information is transferred to the appropriate afferent neuronal complexes of the membranous labyrinth and then to the auditory and vestibular tracts of the central nervous system. This translation and transfer of external sensory and mechanical stimuli is the essential function of the inner ear and its sensory ganglia. Loss of function of the inner ear sensory receptor cells—the hair cells—and of their ganglia results in disorders of hearing and balance. The development of effective therapies to prevent the development of these sensory deficits requires a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie loss of sensory hair cells and their primary neurons, and of protection and repair mechanisms within the inner ear. This chapter reviews the current understanding of how injury to hair cells and neurons in the inner ear leads to their death and of how their survival after exposures to traumatizing agents might be promoted. The efficacy of otoand neuroprotective strategies to prevent the loss of injured hair cells and neurons from traumatized inner ears are presented and discussed.
