OBJECTIVE To date, studies in all populations showed that mutations in the gene of Gap junction protein beta 2 (GJB2) play an important role in non-syndromic autosomal recessive congenital hearing loss. The aim of this study was to evaluate GJB2 gene of patients with hearing loss in our region using deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequencing method and to demonstrate region-specific mutation and po...
The understanding of the molecular genetics in sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) has advanced rapidly during the last decade, but the molecular etiology of hearing impairment in the Portuguese population has not been investigated thoroughly. To provide appropriate genetic testing and counseling to families, we analyzed the whole mitochondrial genome in 95 unrelated children with SNHL (53 nonsyn...
BACKGROUND Hereditary hearing loss is one of the most common heterogeneous disorders, and genetic variants that can cause hearing loss have been identified in over sixty genes. Most of these hearing loss genes have been detected using classical genetic methods, typically starting with linkage analysis in large families with hereditary hearing loss. However, these classical strategies are not we...
background: mutations of gjb2 gene encoding connexion 26 are the most common cause of hearing loss in many populations. a very wide spectrum of gjb2 gene mutations associated with hearing loss have been detected but pathogenic role has been tested only for a part of them. in this study, we have provided genetic evidence on the pathogenicity of our previously reported novel gjb2 allelic varian...
F amilial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC) is typically characterised by left ventricular hypertrophy, diastolic dysfunction, and hypercontractility, and is often associated with disabling symptoms, arrhythmias, and sudden death. FHC shows both non-allelic and allelic genetic heterogeneity, and results from any one of more than 100 mutations in genes encoding sarcomeric proteins. Identified ge...
In 20% of cases, hereditary non-syndromic hearing loss has an autosomal dominant inheritance (ADNSHL). To date, more than 50 loci for ADNSHL have been mapped to different chromosomal regions. In order to verify whether genomic alterations contribute to the hearing loss etiology and to search for novel deafness candidate loci, we investigated probands from families with ADNSHL by oligonucleotide...
To estimate the frequency of isolated enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) in patients with non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) in an Egyptian population sample and to correlate its size with the degree of hearing loss. The study group comprised 16 patients (32 ears) suffering from non-syndromic SNHL since childhood. After a complete basic audiological evaluation, all patients were su...
A 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...
This article is the second in a 2-part series reviewing neuroimaging in childhood SNHL. Previously, we discussed the clinical work-up of children with hearing impairment, the classification of inner ear malformations, and congenital nonsyndromic causes of hearing loss. Here, we review and illustrate the most common syndromic hereditary and acquired causes of childhood SNHL, with an emphasis on ...
The exquisite sensitivity of the cochlea, which mediates the transduction of sound waves into nerve impulses, depends on the endocochlear potential and requires a highly specialized environment that enables and sustains sensory function. Disturbance of cochlear homeostasis is the cause of many forms of hearing loss including the most frequently occurring syndromic and non-syndromic forms of her...
