Methods After perfusion of ATP into perilymphatic spaces of the guinea pig cochlea, summating potential(SP) , cochlear microphonic ( CM) , auditory nerve compound action potential ( CAP) , distortion product otoa-coustic emission (DPOAE) and auditory brainstem response (ABR) were measured. Results The resultsshowed concentration-dependent effect of ATP on the response alterations of bioelectric activity in cochlea. Adminis-tration of Immol/L ATP caused an increase both in the amplitude of the SP and in the threshold of ABR, a decreasein amplitude of the CAP and DPOAE. In addition, response alterations of the CAP and DPOAE showed in an inten-sity- and frequency-dependent manner, respectively. At levels of 20 - 70dB nHL sound intensity, lmmol/L ATPcaused a significant decrease in the CAP amplitude, while at moderate and high frequency ranges of 2 -8kHz it re-duced DPOAE amplitude significantly. 330μmol/L ATP also increased the threshold of ABR. Conclusion ATPthrough perilymphatic perfusion could inhibit cochlear function of guinea pig.展开更多
