Compound found capable of restoring noise-induced hearing loss.
University of Auckland, New Zealand : Researchers have discovered that a potent new drug restores hearing after noise-induced hearing loss in rats. The landmark discovery found that injection of an agent called ‘ADAC', activates adenosine receptors in cochlear tissues, resulting in recovery of hearing function. The finding paves the way for effective non-surgical therapies to restore hearing loss after noise-induced injury. The work was done by Dr. Srdjan Vlajkovic and his team.
