Mutations in the GJB2 gene (connexin 26) represent a major cause of autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (NSHL) worldwide. In most Caucasian populations, the 35delG mutation in this gene was found to account for up to 50% of cases of the genetic non-syndromic childhood deafness. In populations of non-European ethnic background, other GJB2 gene mutations are occasionally common, e.g. 1...
Mutations in the GJB2 gene have been shown to be the major cause of autosomal recessively inherited, prelingual, non-syndromic hearing loss. 35delG was found to be the most frequent mutation among Caucasians. In this study, we performed haplotype analysis of two large families with autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (totally 33 affected, 37 unaffected) from Trabzon (a city from the ...
Individual's hearing performance after cochlear implant (CI) is variable and depends on different factors such as etiology of deafness, age at implantation, and social/family hearing environment. Here we report the case of dizygotic twins, boy and girl, presenting with neurosensorial profound deafness prior CI (age of implantation = 3.5 years old). Both parents have severe/profound deafness, si...
Introduction & Objective : Hearing loss is the most prevalent form of sensory impairment in humans, affecting approximately one in 1000 infants. In more than half of the cases, the deafness is inherited, and about 80% of hereditary deafness transmitted by autosomal recessive pattern. In hereditary congenital deafness, numerous mutations in GJB2 make the largest fractional contribution in many w...
CONTEXT Mutations in the GJB2 gene are the most common known cause of inherited congenital severe-to-profound deafness. The carrier frequency of these mutations is not known. OBJECTIVES To determine the carrier rate of deafness-causing mutations in GJB2 in the midwestern United States and the prevalence of these mutations in persons with congenital sensorineural hearing loss ranging in severi...
AIMS Mutations in the GJB2 gene-encoding connexin 26 protein are the main cause for autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss worldwide. In this study, we assessed the contributions made by GJB2 and del(GJB6-D13S1830) mutations to the autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness genetic load in Iranian Azeri Turkish patients. RESULTS Probands from 209 different nuclear families were investig...
OBJECTIVE To study connexin 26 (Cx26) gene mutations among autosomal recessive non-syndromal hearing loss in Kuwaiti patients and evaluate their effect on phenotypes. SUBJECTS AND METHODS This cross sectional study included 100 patients aged between 6 months and 18 years, who were referred to the Sheikh Salem Al-Ali Centre for audiology and speech evaluation of autosomal recessive non-syndrom...
BACKGROUND C.35delG/GJB2 mutation is the most frequent genetic cause of deafness in Caucasians. Another frequent mutation in some Caucasian populations is del(GJB6-D13S1830). Both GJB2 and GJB6 genes belong to the same DFNB1 locus and when the two mutations are found in combination in a hearing-impaired person, a digenic pattern of inheritance is suggested. METHODS We examined 63 Croatian sub...
Eleven affected members of a large German-American family segregating recessively inherited, congenital, non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) were found to be homozygous for the common 35delG mutation of GJB2, the gene encoding the gap junction protein Connexin 26. Surprisingly, four additional family members with bilateral profound SNHL carried only a single 35delG mutation. Previou...
mutations in the gjb2 gene encoding connexin 26 (cx26) protein are a major cause for autosomal recessive non syndromic and sporadic deafness in many populations. in this study we have investigated the prevalence of the gjb2 gene mutations using nested pcr pre screening strategy and direct sequencing method. two hundred and sixty autosomal recessive non syndromic and sporadic deaf subjects from ...
