TIGAR Protects Cochlear Hair Cells against Teicoplanin-Induced Damage
Teicoplanin is a glycopeptide antibiotic used to treat severe staphylococcal infections. It has been claimed that teicoplanin possesses ototoxic potential, although its toxic effects on cochlear hair cells (HCs) remain unknown. The TP53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator (TIGAR) plays a cruc...

Sumario: | Teicoplanin is a glycopeptide antibiotic used to treat severe staphylococcal infections. It has been claimed that teicoplanin possesses ototoxic potential, although its toxic effects on cochlear hair cells (HCs) remain unknown. The TP53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator (TIGAR) plays a crucial role in promoting cell survival. Prior research has demonstrated that TIGAR protects spiral ganglion neurons against cisplatin damage. However, the significance of TIGAR in damage to mammalian HCs has not yet been investigated. In this study, firstly, we discovered that teicoplanin caused dose-dependent cell death in vitro in both HEI-OC1 cells and cochlear HCs. Next, we discovered that HCs and HEI-OC1 cells treated with teicoplanin exhibited a dramatically decrease in TIGAR expression. To investigate the involvement of TIGAR in inner ear injury caused by teicoplanin, the expression of TIGAR was either upregulated via recombinant adenovirus or downregulated by shRNA in HEI-OC1 cells. Overexpression of TIGAR increased cell viability, decreased apoptosis, and decreased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, whereas downregulation of TIGAR decreased cell viability, exacerbated apoptosis, and elevated ROS level following teicoplanin injury. Finally, antioxidant therapy with N-acetyl-L-cysteine decreased ROS level, prevented cell death, and restored p38/phosphorylation-p38 expression levels in HEI-OC1 cells injured by teicoplanin. This study demonstrates that TIGAR may be a promising novel target for the prevention of teicoplanin-induced ototoxicity.
