Age-related hearing loss is experienced by one-third of individuals 65 years and older and can be socially debilitating. Historically, there has been poor correlation between age-related threshold changes, loss of speech understanding, and loss of cochlear hair cells (HCs). We examined changes in ribbon synapse number at four ages in Fisher Brown Norway (FBN) rats, an extensively studied rat model of aging. In contrast to previous work in mice/Wistar rats, we found minimal ribbon synapse loss before 20 months (m), with significant differences in 24m and 28m rats at 4 kHz. Significant outer HC loss was observed at 24m and 28m in low to mid-frequency regions. Age-related reductions in ABR wave I amplitude and increases in threshold were strongly correlated with ribbon synapse loss. Wave V/I ratios increased across age for click, 2, 4, and 24 kHz. Together, we find that ribbon synapses in the FBN rat cochlea show resistance to aging until ~60% of their lifespan, suggesting species/strain differences may underpin decreased peripheral input into the aging central processor.
