Abstract excerpt
C57BL/6J mice have long been studied as a model of age-related hearing loss (ARHL). In C57BL/6J mice, ARHL begins in the high-frequency range at 3 months of age and spreads toward low frequencies by 10 months of age. We previously confirmed that c.753A>G genome editing of an ahl allele (c.753A) in the cadherin 23 gene (Cdh23) suppressed the onset of ARHL until 12 months of age. We further investigated the hearing...
