Ototoxicity: an argument for evaluation of the cochlea in safety testing in animals.

Abstract:

:The cochlea is one of the more common targets for toxic effects, yet current toxicologic screening in animals does not routinely evaluate the cochlea as a potential target organ. Although histopathologic sections are routinely taken from the eye and the optic nerve and tract and most studies include at least 1 section through the nasal cavity and olfactory mucosa, the cochlea is not histopathologically examined in routine toxicity studies. Unfortunately, routine clinical examinations frequently miss ototoxicity because rodents and other species can lose most of their high-frequency hearing and still respond to most ambient noises. Ototoxicity as a deficiency in toxicologic screening can be remedied by using well-established histopathologic and behavioral methods or electrophysiologic methods, such as brain stem auditory evoked responses (BAERs). Once the equipment is in place, BAERs can be obtained quickly and easily for ototoxicity screening (approximately 15 minutes for paired testing of 2 rats and 30 minutes each for dogs). BAERs also can be used in virtually all mammalian species. Three or 4 probe frequencies (eg, 4, 8, 16, and 32 kHz), representing different areas of the cochlea, can be tested in a few minutes with subcutaneous electrodes under short-acting chemorestraint. Given the availability of several approaches to screening for ototoxicity and the importance of the auditory function in human health, safety tests of chemicals and drugs should include an effective screening test for ototoxicity.
