Possibility Of Treatment For Permanent Hearing Loss

, the researchers also developed a non-invasive strategy to deliver the RNAi. A small piece of foam soaked in a solution containing the interfering RNA was placed against the membrane covering one opening into the inner ear of the mice. The slightly porous membrane allowed the interfering RNA to diffuse into the inner ear cells.

Medindia on Hearing Loss: Further information:

Hearing loss: Losing the ability to hear sounds may be due to infection, blockage or damage to the ear. Other kinds of hearing loss may be due to damage to the pathway through which the sound waves travel from the hair cells of the inner ear to the auditory nerves. The probable causes of this may be age, disease, infections, tumor or stroke.

RNAi: RNA interference is a technique of gene silencing that is used to study the effect of absence of a gene, by causing disruption to its expression, on an animal or a plant.
