1 Blocking caspase-3-dependent pathway preserves hair cells from salicylate-induced apoptosis in the guinea pig cochlea. Salicylates caspase-3 Cavia porcellus
2 In the present study, we aim to explore whether the caspase-3-dependent pathway is involved in the apoptotic cell death that occurs in the hair cells (HCs) of guinea pig cochlea following a salicylate treatment. Salicylates caspase-3 Cavia porcellus
3 Salicylate treatment initiated an obvious elevation in ABR thresholds with a maximum average shift of 60 dB sound pressure level (SPL), and caused significant apoptosis in both inner (IHCs) and outer (OHCs) hair cells resulted from an evident increasing in immunoreactivity to caspase-3 protease. Salicylates caspase-3 Cavia porcellus
4 These findings indicate that salicylate could damage cochlear hair cells via inducing apoptosis associated with caspase-3 activation. Salicylates caspase-3 Cavia porcellus
