    Summary
    Elamipretide treatment prevented the OBN-induced elevation of ABR thresholds
    2 context sentences
    Summary · context
    To test the hypothesis that elamipretide treatment mitigates NIHL, 16-week-old male and female CBA/J mice were exposed to 8-16 kHz octave-band noise (OBN) at 98 dB SPL for 2 hours.
    Summary · context
    Elamipretide was administered intraperitoneally immediately after noise exposure and continued for 2 weeks.
