The Role of Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 in the Progression of Age-Related Hearing Loss
Aging is associated with impairment of sensorial functions and with the onset of neurodegenerative diseases.As pari passu circulating insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) bioavailability progressively decreases, we see a direct correlation with sensory impairment and cognitive performance in older humans.Age-related sensory loss is typically caused
