Involvement of Cholesterol Metabolic Pathways in Recovery from Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

Figure 3

Activation of metabolic (red frame) and immune (blue frame) pathways in pig cochleae were prominent during the acute response to noise exposure. GO (a) and KEGG (b) analyses show that metabolic (red frame) and immune (blue frame) function were prominently enriched among proteins that changed in levels between control (Ctrl) and day 1 after noise exposure (NE1) pig inner ears. (c) The NF-κB (p65) signaling pathway was primarily activated at day 1 after noise exposure (NE1) in pig inner ears.
