Fucoidan promotes mechanosensory hair cell regeneration following amino glycoside-induced cell death

► Neomycin treatment to induce hair cell death. ► Screen for natural compounds that stimulate hair cell regeneration after ototoxicity using zebrafish lateral line system. ► Effect of LMWF was analyzed with confocal microscope, SEM, BrdU incorporation. ► LMWF promotes hair cell regeneration after neomycin-induced cell death.
