Abstract:
Objective To study the effects and the possible mechanism of the hearing loss of offspring mice with chronic intrauterine hypoxia.Methods Ten healthy SD pregnant mice with SPF level were selected to establish an intrauterine hypoxia model as the hypoxia group,while another ten healthy SD pregnant mice without hypoxia treatment were selected as the control group.Arterial blood gas analysis was performed on pregnant mice and audi-tory brainstem response(ABR)testing was performed on their offspring after birth,and the results of each group were compared.Results The PaO2 and SaO2 of the hypoxic group were significantly lower than those of in the con-trol group.The hearing loss rate and wave Ⅲ response threshold of the offspring mice of the hypoxia group were significantly higher than those of in the control group at 21 and 56 days,but over time,the hearing loss rate and wave Ⅲ response threshold of the hypoxia group improved compared to before.Although some offspring mice in the hypoxic group at 21 day and 56 day had normal Ⅲ wave response thresholds,their wave Ⅱ and Ⅲ latency,as well as the latency between Ⅰ-Ⅱ,Ⅱ-Ⅲ,and Ⅰ-Ⅲ,were still significantly higher,while the amplitude of wave Ⅲ and the ratio of Ⅲ/Ⅰ were significantly lower than those of in the control group during the same period.For hypoxic off-spring mice with abnormal wave Ⅲ response threshold at 21 days and normal wave Ⅲ response threshold at 56 days,the latency of waves Ⅱ and Ⅲ,as well as the latency between Ⅰ-Ⅱ,Ⅱ-Ⅲ,and Ⅰ-Ⅲ were significantly higher,while the amplitude of wave Ⅲ and the ratio of Ⅲ/Ⅰ were significantly lower than those of in the control group and hypoxic group with normal wave Ⅲ response thresholds at 21 days and 56 days.The hearing loss of offspring mice in the hypoxia group was mainly bilateral.Conclusion Chronic intrauterine hypoxia can lead to varying degrees of hearing loss,but this type of hearing loss has a certain degree of retrogression in the early stages,and the body can undergo limited developmental compensation and repair.
