The therapy targets a specific missing protein, a narrow condition. While significant, it doesn't fix deafness from ototoxic meds, infections, or Connexin 26 mutations. Scope is key. #HearingRestoration 2/6

Cochlear gene therapy restores hearing and auditory processing in an atypical DFNB9 mouse model - Communications Medicine Benamer et al. develop a knock-in mouse model carrying the E1799del otoferlin mutation to study the atypical DFNB9 variant form of deafness. They show the mouse model exhibits abnormal otoferlin distribution, failure of synaptic transmission in inner hair cells, and profound hearing loss, all of which can be restored with AAV gene therapy.

🚨 NEW RESEARCH! ⚕️ 🩺 👂

Benamer et al. find that cochlear AAV gene therapy restores hearing and auditory processing in an atypical deafness DFNB9 mouse model 🐁
