29 Μαρ 2022 · Frequency’s drug candidate is designed to be injected into the ear to regenerate these cells within the cochlea. In clinical trials, the company has already improved people’s hearing as measured by tests of speech perception — the ability to understand speech and recognize words.
19 Απρ 2023 · Researchers move closer to gene therapy solution for hearing loss. Hearing loss affects about 48 million Americans and 430 million people worldwide, with those numbers expected to grow as populations age. More than 90 percent of individuals affected have sensorineural hearing loss, caused by damage to the inner ear and the destruction of the ...
We review the advancements in maintaining and regenerating nerves in damaged animal cochleae, with an emphasis on the therapeutic capacity of neurotrophic factors delivered to the inner ear after an insult.
20 Οκτ 2020 · In pursuit of therapeutics to restore hearing from drug or noise damage, investigators have focused on the cellular events that could regulate the generation of new HCs from supporting cells in the mammalian cochlea.
26 Δεκ 2017 · A team of researchers has discovered a drug combination that can regenerate hair cells in the inner ear, offering a potential new way to treat hearing loss. Within the inner ear, thousands of hair cells detect sound waves and translate them into nerve signals that allow us to hear speech, music, and other everyday sounds.
30 Οκτ 2024 · Most hearing loss is caused by damage to part of your inner ear, called the cochlea. In the cochlea, sensory hair cells and auditory nerve cells detect sound and carry signals from the ear to the brain – which allows you to hear.
