   DISCUSSION
        The premise of this study was that intense noise ex-
   posure causes reduced CBF and ischemia, leading to the
   production of ROS. The accumulation of ROS then pro-
   motes the expression of ICAM-1 to initiate a cascade of
   events, which ultimately leads to cochlear damage. ABR
   results indicated that noise-induced TTS could be signifi-
   cantly attenuated by administering anti-ICAM-1 Ab
   intravenously (Fig. 2). This protective effect suggests a
   mechanism of inflammatory prevention, whereby anti-
   ICAM-1 Ab prevents ICAM-1 from eliciting a deleterious
   effect that would otherwise lead to cochlear damage.
        Significant data exists showing that ROS promote
   the expression of ICAM-1 in endothelial cells and subse-
   quently neutrophil-endothelial cell adhesion.6,15 For
   example, hydrogen peroxide-induced polymorphonuclear
   neutrophil (PMN) adhesion is dependent on the rapid                               Fig. 3. Auditory threshold shifts (post-noise: 72 hours). Mean audi-

effect of hydrogen peroxide (i.e., ROS) in instigating neu-
trophil adhesion is mediated by ICAM-1. Utilizing this
knowledge, studies were conducted to show that ROS
scavengers and blockers can attenuate ischemia/reperfu-
sion-induced and noise-induced cochlear damage,4,8
presumably by preventing ROS from inducing the
expression of ICAM-1. Our results suggest that anti-
ICAM-1 Ab has a similar effect in preventing noise-
induced cochlear damage. This effect is mediated by
blocking ICAM-1 and thereby attenuating the inflamma-
tory cascade. Inflammatory damage time course of the
cochlea is consistent with the time courses in other
tissues.16
     Although the effect of anti-ICAM-1 Ab attenuates
noise-induced cochlear damage, it was not completely
protective. This may be due to inappropriate concentra-
tion or timing of drug administration or possibly because
other adhesion molecule pathways play a role in noise-
induced hearing loss. ICAM-1 is a single polypeptide
chain (MW ¼ 90 kD) that is glucosulated.17 It has five
immunoglobulin homology domains and is closely related
to neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) and myelin-
associated glycoprotein (MAG). The primary sites of
ICAM-1 expression are the microvasculature, peritubu-
lar capillaries, and the vascular endothelium of large                            Fig. 5. Blood pressure (BP) recording from a representative ani-

Figure 4 depicts CBF shifts (repre- retained neutrophils adversely affect renal function; and sented as a percentage change from mean baseline CBF) F5 and Figure 5 depicts a BP recording from a representa- tive animal taken over a period of 108 minutes. No significant changes in CBF or mean BP were observed between baseline and post-treatment measurements. DISCUSSION The premise of this study was that intense noise ex- posure causes reduced CBF and ischemia, leading to the production of ROS. The accumulation of ROS then pro- motes the expression of ICAM-1 to initiate a cascade of events, which ultimately leads to cochlear damage. ABR results indicated that noise-induced TTS could be signifi- cantly attenuated by administering anti-ICAM-1 Ab intravenously (Fig. 2). This protective effect suggests a mechanism of inflammatory prevention, whereby anti- ICAM-1 Ab prevents ICAM-1 from eliciting a deleterious effect that would otherwise lead to cochlear damage. Significant data exists showing that ROS promote the expression of ICAM-1 in endothelial cells and subse- quently neutrophil-endothelial cell adhesion.6,15 For example, hydrogen peroxide-induced polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) adhesion is dependent on the rapid Fig. 3.

ICAM-2 is a ligand for CD11a/CD18 but not for the other B2-integrins. Another member of the immuno- globulin superfamily important for leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions is vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), which interacts with the a4b1-integrin (VLA4) on mononuclear leukocytes. Neutrophils do not express VLA4. Other members of the immunoglobulin superfamily such as CD31 and mucosal addressing cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) may also contribute to leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions. The critical role of ICAM-1 and neutrophil-endothe- lial cell adhesion in ischemic injury is strengthened, however, by several studies. Mutant mice that do not express ICAM-1 are protected against ischemic injury.17 Furthermore, antibodies directed against ICAM-1 have been shown to protect against ischemic injury.9,17 Another study demonstrated that ICAM-1-deficient and PMN-depleted mice were relatively resistant to cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury.17 Depletion of neutrophils alone results in protection against ischemia-induced def- icits in renal function, and although administration of Fig. 4.

Utilizing this knowledge, studies were conducted to show that ROS scavengers and blockers can attenuate ischemia/reperfu- sion-induced and noise-induced cochlear damage,4,8 presumably by preventing ROS from inducing the expression of ICAM-1. Our results suggest that anti- ICAM-1 Ab has a similar effect in preventing noise- induced cochlear damage. This effect is mediated by blocking ICAM-1 and thereby attenuating the inflamma- tory cascade. Inflammatory damage time course of the cochlea is consistent with the time courses in other tissues.16 Although the effect of anti-ICAM-1 Ab attenuates noise-induced cochlear damage, it was not completely protective. This may be due to inappropriate concentra- tion or timing of drug administration or possibly because other adhesion molecule pathways play a role in noise- induced hearing loss. ICAM-1 is a single polypeptide chain (MW ¼ 90 kD) that is glucosulated.17 It has five immunoglobulin homology domains and is closely related to neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) and myelin- associated glycoprotein (MAG). The primary sites of ICAM-1 expression are the microvasculature, peritubu- lar capillaries, and the vascular endothelium of large Fig. 5.
