We previously reported that dysregulation of histone deacetylase 2 (Hdac2) was associated with the prognosis of sudden sensorineural hearing loss. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. In the present study, we developed an acute hearing loss animal model in guinea pigs by infusing lipopolysaccharides (LPS) into the cochlea and measured the expression of Hdac2 in the sensory epithelium. We observed that the level of Hdac2 was significantly decreased in the LPS-infused cochleae. The levels of apoptosis-inhibition genes Bcl-2 and Bcl-xl were also decreased in the cochlea and correlated positively with the levels of Hdac2. Caspase3 or TUNEL-positive spiral ganglion neurons, hair cells, and supporting cells were observed in the LPS-infused cochleae. These in vivo observations were recapitulated in cell culture experiments. Based on bioinformatics analysis, we found miR-204-5p was engaged in the regulation of Hdac2 on Bcl-2. Molecular mechanism experiments displayed that miR-204-5p could be regulated by Hdac2 through interacting with transcription factor Sp1. Taken together, these results indicated that the Hdac2/Sp1/miR-204-5p/Bcl-2 regulatory axis mediated apoptosis in the cochlea, providing potential insights into the progression of acute hearing loss. To our knowledge, the study describes a miRNA-related mechanism for Hdac2-mediated regulation in the cochlea for the first time. |
