Drug to prevent hearing loss from age and lifestyle is a step closer
By Bronwyn Thompson Listen up: Researchers believe we can protect against hearing loss on a molecular level Depositphotos Scientists have discovered that a genetic mutation that triggers a molecular domino effect causing hearing loss mirrors the mechanism involved in noise- and age-related hearing loss. They believe that inhibiting the key player in this mechanism could instead...
