Hi to all,
Before 8 months I corresponded with doctor Kay Park from RNL Bio and he told me for Chloe's successful treatment for autoimunne hearing loss, but he was not sure that it will be 100% successful therapy for sensorneural hearing loss because they don't have enough cases to be sure of that. Do anyone have some news about it? Regards, Vasco |

Hello to everyone,
I have news from Dr. Kay Park: Dear, we had some more clients who have been improved their hearing loss after stem cell infusion. especially for Chloe, American girl, i had met her parents last summer. they both are doctors. they told me that Chloe had 100 percents cured by now since after stem cell transplant 2years ago. she haven't had another infusion after that, which proves the effect of stem cell can go more than 2 years. in other cases stem cell seem working for the hearing loss, but not as perfect as Chloe. therefore, i can tell you that we still cannot predict for your case before we adopt stem cells for you. thank you. p.s. i'm attaching the paper about sensor neural hearing loss for your reference.

I thought this topic interesting and did a quick google search. From my reading, while stem cell therapy has potential, the actual cases of "hair" replacement have been in the hundreds whereas people like me have lost hearing due to the loss of 10 of thousand coclear "hair" cells. So maybe in another 10 to 20 years.

I think it would much faster to develop, we will see when

Boy, would I like to know about this Stem Cell treatment for sensorineural hearing loss. Where can I read some papers about it - not overly scientific, though. Have a friend that had stem cell treatment for Scleroderma 10 years ago. It kept her alive and she has improve, albeit, slowly - she can swallow food now. It is the future!

I know that only RNL Bio publicly stated that they working with humans, but for autoimunne hearing loss, the rest are all under investigation, I hope at an advanced stage. in principle now is nothing happens, we're waiting for someone to publish.

In what is the most recent evidence for the potential and promise of stem cell research to advance a wide range of medical treatments and cures, Stanford researchers have used stem cells to reverse damaged hearing in mice. The initial findings are so promising that the breakthrough could find its way to reversing hearing loss in humans with the benefit of an additional decade of research and trials.
As The Telegraph explains, humans are born with approximately 30,000 hair cells in each of our inner ears. Through prolonged exposure to loud noise (an increasingly common condition as modernization and urbanization march forward), these hair cells can become permanently damaged, and once they are gone, they are gone for good. The inner ear hair cells are a type of tissue that we are not able to spontaneously regenerate, so those afflicted with the loss of these cells can experience permanent hearing loss and problems with balance as well. A medical research team led by Stanford’s Stefan Heller was successful in using transplanted stem cells, programming them to grow into new hair cells in laboratory mice, according to The Telegraph. The new cells were determined to perform the required function of translating physical impulses into electrical impulses that is necessary to capturing sound in the ear and sending that information on to the brain. http://blog.tonic.com/stanford-stem-...ing-loss-hope/

Can someone please share his information so we can find out about the stem sell information and if there is a possible treatment for hearing loss using stem cell
