Simvastatin protects auditory hair cells from gentamicin-induced toxicity and activates Akt signaling in vitro
BACKGROUND: Inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase, known as statins, are commonly used as cholesterol-lowering drugs. During the past decade, evidence has emerged that statins also have neuroprotective effects. Research in the retina has shown that simvastatin, a commonly use...
