FOXA2 Transcriptionally Activates SIRT1 to Inhibit Cochlear Ferroptosis in Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

Background: Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a pervasive occupational health challenge, yet the individual susceptibility mechanisms remain unclear. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of programmed cell death, has been implicated in cochlear hair cell damage. This study aims...
