Physiological and neurobiological bases of age-related hearing loss: biotherapeutic implications
This comprehensive review examines the cellular, molecular, and hormonal factors contributing to age-related hearing loss (presbycusis), particularly the roles of sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone) and aldosterone in auditory aging. Estrogen appears to exert neuroprotective effects on auditory function, whereas progesterone may impair it. Aldosterone has been shown to enhance potassium
