Myelin protein P0 has been identified as an autoantigen in inner ear diseases. In order to study autoimmune hearing loss, we performed brain stem auditory-evoked potential (BAEP) studies on P0-sensitized mice. Two P0-sensitized mice showed hunched posture, poor coat, loss of body weight, and abnormal walking with a waddling gait. About 25% of the P0-sensitized mice developed hearing loss. In the BAEP study, peak latencies of waves I, III, and V and the interpeak latency I-III were prolonged in… Expand
