- CommanderData 3y agoNot directly, but breaking it down - they've successfully delivered viral code to inner hair cells. I have been following Tinnitus for quite a while now and it's assumed it's caused by some form of trauma to the Cochlear, either auditory nerve, IHC/OHC or SGN cells. Even with patient's with no record to prior trauma (potentially immune system dysfunction or compromised blood labyrinth barrier / BLB). Now if this is continues to show success we could start seeing more therapies targeting the Cochlear by way of gene therapy and it potentially helping people with Tinnitus by treating it's underlying cause. I.e. Regenerating lost cells in the Cochlear.
