Survival of cochlear sensory epithelial cells may be regulated by inhibitor of differentiation-1 (Id1) and the N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor. However, it is unclear whether Id1 and the NMDA receptor are involved in the radiation-mediated survival of rat cochlear sensory epithelial cells. Here, we show that the percentage of apoptotic cells increased, the percentage of cells in the S phase decreased, Id1 mRNA and protein expression decreased and the NMDA receptor subtype 2B (NR2B) mRNA and protein level increased in OC1 cells after radiation. Cells infected with the Id1 gene exhibited higher Id1 mRNA and protein levels and lower NR2B mRNA and protein levels than the control cells. In contrast, after transfection of the Id1 siRNA into OC1 cells, Id1 mRNA and protein expression dec...
