“Furthermore, EGb 761 inhibited cellular apoptosis in cultured cochleae treated with gentamicin.”
“ Gentamicin induced hair cell damage in cochlear cultures that could be prevented by EGb 761.”
“In guinea pigs with gentamicin application onto the round window membrane, the mean auditory brain stem response threshold, ratio of cochlear hair cell damage and apoptosis were significantly elevated compared with those in the control group, and this could be prevented by oral administration of EGb 761.”
