摘要
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is a common sensory deficit in the elderly, which seriously affects physical and mental health. Therefore, understanding its underlying molecular mechanisms and taking interventions to treat ARHL are urgently needed. In our study, cochlea of 4-week-old C57BL/6 mice as the Youth group (n = 6) and 48-week-old cochlea as the Old group (n = 6) were subjected to quasi-targeted metabolomics analysis by Ultra high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). In total, 208 differential metabolites were identified in 12 cochlea samples, which highlighted the following discriminant compounds: tryptophan, piperidine, methionine, L-arginine, histamine, serotonin, acetylcholine, and 4-aminobutyric acid. Differentially expressed metabolites were identified which were involved in KEGG pathways related to the digestion and absorption of oxidative stress associated amino acids, Synaptic vesicle cycle of serotonin, Pantothenate and CoA Biosynthesis. These findings are a first step toward elucidating the pathophysiological pathways involved in the etiology of ARHL and provide the possibility to further explore the mechanisms of ARHL using metabolomic analysis.
