Short-term NAD+ supplementation prevents hearing loss in mouse models of Cockayne syndrome
Abstract Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is one of the most common disorders affecting elderly individuals. There is an urgent need for effective preventive measures for ARHL because none are currently available. Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a premature aging disease that presents with progressive hear...
