Tsumura Suzuki Obese Diabetes (TSOD) mice exhibit early age-associated hearing loss. Histopathological analysis of these mice shows narrowing of capillaries in the stria vascularis and chronic reduction of blood flow in the cochlea. In this study, we investigated the effect of oral administration of a herbal medicine or calorie restriction on hearing in TSOD mice.
