Cisplatin Cytotoxicity of Auditory Cells Requires Secretions of Proinflammatory Cytokines via Activation of ERK and NF-κB
The ototoxicity of cisplatin, a widely used chemotherapeutic agent, involves a number of mechanisms, including perturbation of redox status, increase in lipid peroxidation, and formation of DNA… Expand

Evidence that Cisplatin-induced Auditory Damage is Attenuated by Downregulation of Pro-inflammatory Cytokines Via Nrf2/HO-1
Recently, we demonstrated that pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 played a critical role in cisplatin-induced cochlear injury and that flunarizine, known as a T-type Ca2+… Expand

Immortalization of Normal Adult Human Middle Ear Epithelial Cells Using a Retrovirus Containing the E6/E7 Genes of Human Papillomavirus Type 16
A human middle ear epithelial cell line (HMEEC-1) was established using human papillomavirus E6/E7 genes. HMEEC-1 has remained morphologically and phenotypically stable, even after 50 passages. The… Expand
