BACKGROUND: There is no report on acute sensorineural hearing loss with congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection in basic experiments.
AIMS/OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dexamethasone, an anti-inflammatory steroid, on acute sensorineural hearing loss in the mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) infection model mice.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Sensorineural hearing loss model mice were divided into two groups, one with and one without intratympanic dexamethasone. Dexamethasone was injected into the tympanic cavity of only the right ear, and hearing ability was assessed at the ages of three, six, and eight weeks by auditory brainstem response measurement.
RESULTS: Among the 23 mice intratympanically injected with dexamethasone (15 μg/mouse) at the age of three weeks, five (21.7%) had a hearing improvement of at least 10 dB and 18 (78.3%) had no improvement at the age of six weeks. Among the 19 mice that did not receive a dexamethasone injection, one (5.3%) showed improvement and 18 (94.7%) showed no improvement (p = 0.129).
CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE: In this study, transtympanic infusion of dexamethasone into the tympanic cavity was effective in some mice with sensorineural hearing loss, suggesting that, in addition to angiogenesis, anti-inflammatory activity might be a mechanism of treatment for hearing loss.
