Induction of Ntf3 expression starting at 60?weeks of age results in increased IHC synapse densities and ABR peak 1 amplitudes at 95?weeks of age. (a) Representative confocal images of IHC synapses at the 16?kHz region of a 95-week-old Ntf3stop. Credit: PLOS Biology (2024). DOI: 10.1371/journal.pbio.3002665 A study from Michigan Medicine’s Kresge Hearing Research Institute was able to produce supranormal hearing in mice, while also supporting a hypothesis on the cause of hidden hearing loss in humans. The researchers had previously used similar methods—increasing the amount of the neurotrophic factor neurotrophin-3 Read More
