摘要

Inactivating mutations of SERPINB6 in humans result in progressive hearing loss starting in early adulthood (DFNB91). We have previously shown that C57BL/6J mice lacking the orthologous gene, Serpinb6a, exhibit progressive hearing loss, which is associated with progressive loss of distinct cell types in the organ of Corti beginning with outer hair cells (OHCs). However, deafness in these animals occurs much earlier than expected, possibly because C57BL/6J mice also carry an age-related hearing loss mutation in the cadherin 23 gene (Cdh23(ahl)) that causes late onset hearing loss. The CBA/CaH strain of mice does not carry Cdh23(ah/ahl) and may represent a better model of the human DFNB91 patients. Here, we show that transfer of the mutant Serpinb6a allele onto the Cdh23 normal CBA/CaH background markedly delays onset of hearing loss, more closely phenocopying DFNB91, without altering the pattern of cellular loss. Young, pre-symptomatic mice of this genotype exposed to acoustic trauma exhibit permanent hearing loss, compared to controls, associated with the disappearance of OHCs. We conclude that Serpinb6 helps to maintain hearing by protecting hair cells from stress.
