Strengthening Medial Olivocochlear Feedback Reduces the Developmental Impact of Early Noise Exposure

Valeria C. Castagna, Luis E. Boero, Mariano Nicolás Di Guilmi, Camila Catalano Di Meo, Jimena A. Ballestero, Paul Albert Fuchs, Amanda M. Lauer, Ana Belén Elgoyhen, María Eugenia Gómez‐Casati

This study shows that enhancing medial olivocochlear feedback protects against early noise-induced hearing damage in mice, with long-term auditory benefits.

Insights into early cochlear damage induced by potassium channel deficiency

Ezequiel Rías, Camila Carignano, Valeria C. Castagna, Leonardo Dionisio, Jimena A. Ballestero, Giuliana Paolillo, Ingrid Ouwerkerk, María Eugenia Gómez‐Casati, Guillermo F. Spitzmaul

This study shows KCNQ4 deficiency causes cochlear dysfunction by disrupting protein localization, OHC organization, and cell survival, with noise not worsening hair cell damage in the model.
