ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To investigated the effects of Src family kinases on the expression of mRNA and protein of Nav1.1 in spiral ganglion neurons.@*METHOD@#RT-PCR and Western blot techniques respectively explored the level of expression of mRNA and protein of Nav1.1 in spiral ganglion neurons by Src family kinases inhibitor.@*RESULT@#An application of the inhibitor of Src family kinases which was PP2 (10 micromol/L) and SU6656 (2 micromol/L) gived rise to the mRNA decreasing to 26% +/- 0.8% and 36% +/- 1.5% respectively (P < 0.05), and protein reducing to 39% +/- 12.5% and 53% +/- 1.7% severally (P < 0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Administration of the inhibitor of Src family kinases could decrease the expression of mRNA and protein of Nav1.1 in spiral ganglion neurons.
