Genetic Polymorphisms in Human CX3CR1-Mediated Macrophage Dysregulation are Associated with the Worsening of Hearing Loss and Cochlear Degeneration After Noise Trauma: A Study in a Humanized Mouse Model
2025-05-13
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is characterized by cochlear inflammation, macrophage activation, and degeneration of hair cells, synapses and neuron. Macrophage-mediated inflammation in the damaged cochlea is regulated via CX3CR1-CX3CL1 signaling, where the fractalkine ligand CX3CL1 serves as a chemotactic and calming signal for macrophage activation. Furthermore, disrupted CX3CR1-CX...
