Rinri’s first product, Rincell-1, is designed to regenerate the auditory nerves in the inner ears of patients with hearing loss caused by damage to these cells.
Our research clearly demonstrates that Rincell-1 can survive, engraft, mature and re-establish neural connections to auditory hair cells and wider auditory neural architecture. In models of auditory neuron-related hearing loss, these cells result in a reversal of hearing loss and a 40% improvement in the hearing threshold.
