Redox sensitive molecular mechanisms play an important role in the regulation of cellular damage in acquired hearing loss induced by ototoxic environmental exposures, drugs, and aging.
1) Noise, a pervasive environmental stressor, induces oxidative stress to affect the physiological as well as psychological well-being. My laboratory employs omics approaches to elucidate redox sensitive signaling mechanisms/pathways that regulate noise-induced hearing impairment as well as stress response. We are also interested in evaluating the interactions of environmental chemicals, such as lead and cadmium, that may play an important role in determining the susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss.
2) Cisplatin is a widely used anti-cancer drug, whose major side-effects include ototoxicity. Cisplatin induces nitration of cochlear proteins, an indicator of oxidative damage to proteins, and we identified the most abundant nitrated cochlear protein as LMO4, a transcriptional regulator. My laboratory is interested in delineating the signaling mechanism by which nitration of LMO4 alters its biological activity to induce cellular apoptosis and mediate cochlear cell death.
