These three genes were: Hspb1 (p = *0.0345, F = 3.79, df = 2,29) and Gpx6 (p = **0.0011, F = 8.644, df = 2,29) that showed significant up-regulation and Txnrd1 (p = 0.6575, F = 0.4254, df = 2,29) that showed down-regulation with age and hearing loss. Here, TXNRD1 is linked to hearing loss disorder.
