Abstract:
The pathogenesis of tinnitus is unclear and may involve the peripheral and central nervous sys-tems.Recent studies have found that neuroinflammatory response leads to hyperactivity of nerve center,in which tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)has an important impact on neurotransmitter transmission,transmembrane ion concentration,neuronal synaptic structure and functional reorganisation,and may play an important role in the path-ogenesis of acute tinnitus.This article discusses the central mechanism of TNF-α in mediating the onset of acute tin-nitus.
