A novel locus for autosomal dominant non-syndromic hearing loss, DFNA31, maps to chromosome 6p21.3.
BACKGROUND Non-syndromic hearing loss is the most genetically heterogeneous trait known in humans. To date, 51 loci for autosomal dominant non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss (NSSHL) have been identified by linkage analysis. OBJECTIVE To investigate the genes involved in a Dutch family with NSSHL. METHODS Linkage analysis in a large Dutch pedigree with progressive bilateral loss of the...

BACKGROUND Non-syndromic hearing loss is among the most genetically heterogeneous traits known in humans. To date, at least 50 loci for autosomal dominant non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss (ADNSSHL) have been identified by linkage analysis. OBJECTIVE To report the mapping of a novel autosomal dominant deafness locus on the long arm of chromosome 14 at 14q11.2-q12, DFNA53, in a large mu...
متن کاملMapping of a new autosomal dominant non-syndromic hearing loss locus (DFNA43) to chromosome 2p12.
Hearing impairment (HI) is the most frequent sensory defect with wide genetic heterogeneity. Approximately 80% of genetic hearing loss is non-syndromic and 15-25% of exhibit autosomal dominant inheritance. We analysed an Italian three generation family in which non-syndromic hearing impairment is transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. Onset of HI in all affected subjects occurred in the se...

We have studied 36 subjects in a large multigenerational Chinese family that is segregating for an autosomal dominant adult onset form of progressive non-syndromic hearing loss. All affected subjects had bilateral sensorineural hearing loss involving all frequencies with some significant gender differences in initial presentation. After excluding linkage to known loci for non-syndromic deafness...

A pproximately 1 in 1000 children is born with a serious permanent hearing impairment (pre-lingual deafness), and it is estimated that more than half of these cases in developed countries are due to genetic factors. The prevalence of hearing loss increases dramatically with age; it is estimated that approximately 5% of people under 45 years of age have a significant loss of hearing, increasing ...
