Our previous work showed that silencing AMP-activated protein kinase alpha 1 (AMPKα1) prevents noise-induced hearing loss through a redox-sensitive regulatory mechanism. Given that both noise-induced and aminoglycoside-induced hearing loss share oxidative stress as a key pathological feature, we tested whether AMPKα1 silencing could mitigate KM-induced damage using an acute ototoxic model combining KM with furosemide (KM + FU). KM + FU exposure markedly increased AMPKα phosphorylation at Thr172. Targeted siRNA-mediated silencing via posterior semicircular canal delivery in CBA/J mice significantly reduced AMPKα1 expression in OHCs and effectively prevented KM + FU-induced OHC loss and hearing impairment. This preventive effect was independent of stria vascularis permeability or cochlear KM uptake. These findings identify AMPKα as a contributor to KM + FU-induced acute ototoxicity and suggest that its inhibition may be a promising strategy for hearing preservation.</p>","PeriodicalId":524156,"journal":{"name":"Sensory neuroscience","volume":"2 2","pages":"e70032"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13446111/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148687640","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
