A potassium channel (Kv7.4) critical for outer hair cell (OHC) function and implicated in age-related hearing loss is the target of the new Acousia Therapeutics (ACOU085) small-molecule otoprotective drug candidate. In this study, researchers show activation of that channel can significantly reduce age-related threshold shifts of ABRs as well as OHC loss in a mouse model.
