Evolution of hearing after administration of TGF-β1 inhibitors before noise exposure. (A) Evolution of ABR thresholds (mean ± SEM, in dB SPL) in MF1 mice (n = 6 per group) treated with TGF-β1 inhibitors P17 or P144 at 2.5 mg/kg/24 h/15 days, or saline, and exposed to 100 dB VS noise overnight. Statistically significant differences (ANOVA with Bonferroni post hoc test, p ≤ 0.05) were found between P17 (triangle, *p ≤ 0.05) or P144 (square, #p ≤ 0.05, ##p ≤ 0.01,) and the saline group (circles), 1 and 7 days after exposure. (B) The evolution of peak I latency (mean ± SEM, in ms) in P17 (black bars), P144 (gray bars) and saline (white bars) treated mice showed a similar pattern. A statistically significant increase in peak I latency was observed 1 day after noise exposure in the three groups (paired T test compared to post-treatment values, **p ≤ 0.01).
