Abstract
Resveratrol is a non-flavonoid polyphenol compound that exists in many plants, and is considered an antitoxin. This study explores the effects from the regulation of miR-455-5p by resveratrol on cisplatin-induced ototoxicity via the PTEN–PI3K–AKT signaling pathway. For this, House Ear Institute–Organ of Corti 1 (HEI-OC1) cells were transfected with miR-455-5p inhibitor and treated with cisplatin and resveratrol, then cell proliferation, apoptosis, and oxidative stress were evaluated. A mouse model of hearing loss was established, and these mice were treated with cisplatin, resveratrol, or cisplatin combined with resveratrol, by intraperitoneal injection. The auditory brainstem response (ABR) threshold was measured, and hair cells were examined using immunofluorescence staining. The expression levels of miR-455-5p, PTEN, and PI3K/Akt proteins were examined. The results from our in-vitro experiments indicate that resveratrol promoted viability and reduced apoptosis and oxidative stress in cisplatin-induced HEI-OC1 cells. Resveratrol upregulated miR-455-5p, downregulated PTEN, and activated the PI3K–Akt axis. These effects of resveratrol were reversed by knock-down of miR-455-5p. The results from our in-vivo experiments indicate that resveratrol protected hearing and inhibited the hair-cell injury caused by cisplatin ototoxicity. Resveratrol also upregulated miR-455-5p, downregulated PTEN, and activated the PTEN–PI3K–Akt axis in cochlear tissues from cisplatin-treated mice. These results indicate that resveratrol upregulates miR-455-5p to target PTEN and activate the PI3K–Akt signaling pathway to counteract cisplatin ototoxicity.
