Default Possible sensorineural stem cell therapy

Hi to all,

Do anyone knows more about this? It looks promising. Can it be used and for adults?

Gene therapy as a treatment for hearing loss seems to have arrived.

"This is the first time that an inherited, genetic hearing loss has been successfully treated in laboratory mice, and as such represents an important milestone for treating genetic deafness in humans," says senior study author Lawrence Lustig of the University of California, San Francisco

Its may take 5+ years or 10 years to complete the deafness cure research

Smile stem cells seems good than others but do not ignore others as well

HI sorry i just remember the concern you posted ,

would like to inform you see, stem cells if you trust me which i do not says there is compulsion, but atleast try to understand i am not sure about gene therapy, but yes stem cell therapy overall reviews as far as i could see and noticed are very promising then any other stem cells are effective in other ailments as well and proving out there strongly its strength to repair or recover people problem atleast i look forward to stem cells thearapy than any other research very excitingly as i have hope personally that this is the thing which i should look for sensorineural hearing loss than other researches like gene, or one proved but not confirm of estrogen, or any other, yes it really can take a lot of time for human to get recovery from stem cells may be 10 years from now but there is no way you can do any thing for senso loss, yes if gene or any other comes earlier to stem cells who would not like that therapy to improve his life.

so all the best and i wud like to finish up my post as my battery not allowing me and i can not have charger this is early mor. here in india, and batteries are at another flr. of my building where i am not interested to go.

Bye, god bless you, all the very best, this is complex world for anyone whether he is genious or dummy, this is hard fact, i am dummy, but problem point is we can not end our life and we should not after all, because my personal attitude (phillosphy) for life is to have excellent hearing should not be our ultimate goal we have other things left in life and we should not go unhappy from life for just hearing abnormality, we should live life as much as we can live even it is hard to live, i live very hard very very hard life with tinnitus and speech clarity problem but i do not want to give up.

sorry if you do not like anything in my reply,

but i put my heart at best.

Thanks ,

regards,
