Bcl-2 genes regulate noise-induced hearing loss.
Proteins of the Bcl-2 family have been implicated in control of apoptotic pathways modulating neuronal cell death, including noise-induced hearing loss. In this study, we assessed the expressions of anti- and proapoptotic Bcl-2 genes, represented by Bcl-xL and Bak following noise exposures, which yielded temporary threshold shift (TTS) or permanent threshold shift (PTS). Auditory brainstem resp...
متن کاملTHE EFFECT OF NOISE-INDUCED HEARING LOSS ON DENTISTS
This paper presents noise problems associated with the use of air-turbine drills in dental practice. Two hundred and fifty dentists (male and female) were randomly selected from the faculty of dentistry as well as the dentists who worked private in Tehran. The results indicated that the mean value of sound pressure level produced by the high-speed drills was 69.1 db. Most of the energy from...
متن کاملThe Effect of Celecoxib, a Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitor on Noise- Induced Hearing Loss
Objective(s): Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is the major cause of acquired hearing loss. Celecoxib, a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor, is a non- steroidal anti- inflammatory drug (NSAID) with known antioxidant and antineoplastic activity. Therefore, we monitored the extent of temporary noise- induced threshold shifts (TTS) and cochlear damage caused by high level 4- kHz noise exposure t...
متن کاملnoise-induced hearing loss: prevention is possible
conclusions despite rising figures of reported occupational hearing loss, working nbii statistics show that the nihl problem in the danish work environment has, in fact, decreased. in our study, we found that roughly one third (around 100 cases) of the 272 screened persons presumably had nihl, taking into account 88 probable cases (column b) and 44 questionable ones (column c + 16 ski slopes). ...
متن کاملNoise-Induced hearing loss among professional musicians
OBJECTIVES After presbycusis, noise exposure is considered the second cause of sensorineural hearing loss. Due to exposure to high-intensity sounds, musicians may be at risk of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). Given the importance of good hearing in music career, this study aimed to investigate the frequency of hearing loss and use of protective measures among Iranian musicians. METHODS In ...
