Functional Pattern of Increasing Concentrations of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor in Spiral Ganglion: Implications for Research on Cochlear Implants

摘要

BACKGROUND:As previously various studies have suggested application of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) may be considered as a promising future therapy for hearing deficits, in particular for the improvement of cochlear neurone loss during cochlear implantation.
