A novel locus for autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss, DFNA50, maps to chromosome 7q32 between the DFNB17 and DFNB13 deafness loci.
P rogressive hearing loss is a significant problem in all ageing populations. By the age of 80 years, nearly 50% of individuals have hearing loss that impairs their ability to communicate easily, leading to increasing social isolation. Progressive hearing loss in middle and late adulthood is considered multifactorial, with involvement of both genetic and environmental factors. In contrast, chil...
متن کاملA 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...
متن کاملA novel locus for autosomal dominant non-syndromic deafness, DFNA53, maps to chromosome 14q11.2-q12.
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 کاملA novel locus for autosomal dominant non-syndromic deafness (DFNA41) maps to chromosome 12q24-qter.
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...
متن کاملNovel autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing impairment locus DFNB90 maps to 7p22.1-p15.3.
A novel locus DFNB90 was mapped to 7p22.1-p15.3 by carrying out a genome scan in a multigenerational consanguineous family from Pakistan with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing impairment (ARNSHI).DFNB90 is the eighth ARNSHI locus mapped to chromosome 7. A multipoint LOD score of 4.0 was obtained at a number of SNP marker loci spanning from rs1468996 (chromosome 7: 5.7 Mb) tors957960 (chr...
