Description
Jun Suzuki and fourteen co-authors present a 2023 study of a fat handling protein and noise caused hearing loss in mice. The protein helps cells take in and move fatty acids in the nervous system. Whether it shapes the ear's response to loud noise was unknown.
The team bred mice that lack the protein and compared their hearing with normal mice. Hearing was tested before noise, a day after a loud blast, and two weeks later. At the start, the groups heard alike. After noise, the mice without the protein kept lower hearing thresholds and more of their sound sensing cells survived. Gene and chemical readouts from the inner ear filled in the picture.
