Aims: Ototoxicity is one of the main side effects of the chemotherapeutic agent Cisplatin (CDDP). CDDP ototoxicity is caused by damage of the organ of Corti, spiral ganglion cells or lateral wall (stria vascularis and spiral ligament). Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were shown to differentiate into neurogenic and auditory hair cells in vitro. In this study, effect of MSCs in CDDP ototoxicity model of HEI-OC1 cochlear cells was evaluated.
