January 2026 in “Advanced Science” The study explores the role of DDRGK1-mediated ER-phagy in noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL), revealing that ER-phagy is crucial for maintaining ER homeostasis and cell survival. It was found that noise exposure decreases XIAP and DDRGK1 protein levels, inhibiting ER-phagy. XIAP binds to DDRGK1, enhancing its stability and activating ER-phagy. In noise-exposed CBA/CaJ mice, gastrodin, a traditional Chinese medicine ingredient, mitigates cochlear hair cell loss, synaptic damage, and hearing loss by promoting XIAP expression, which increases DDRGK1 levels and activates ER-phagy. These results suggest that targeting XIAP-DDRGK1-mediated ER-phagy could be a novel therapeutic approach for treating NIHL.
