AKR genetic background is not protective against hypothyroidism for the hearing in DW/J-Pou1f1dw/dw mice. Sixty-two dw/dw F2 (DW/J-Pou1f1dw/+ × AKR) mice were tested for their hearing sensitivity and genotyped for sequence variants of GCTCCA repeats in the Mtap1a gene. None of the mice showed ABR thresholds <55 dB SPL.
