OBJECTIVES Genetic hearing loss is highly heterogeneous and more than 100 genes are predicted to cause this disorder in humans. In spite of this large genetic heterogeneity, mutations in SLC26A4 and GJB2 genes are primarily responsible for the major etiologies of genetic hearing loss among Koreans. The purpose of this study is to investigate the genetic cause of deafness in Korean cochlear impl...
Mutations in GJB2, encoding connexin 26 (Cx26), cause both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) at the DFNA3 and DFNB1 loci, respectively. Most of the over 100 described GJB2 mutations cause ARNSHL. Only a minority has been associated with autosomal dominant hearing loss. In this study, we present two families with autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing...
Introduction: The most common sensory disorder, hearing loss, may result from genetic causes. Various inheritance patterns exist, such as X-linked, autosomal dominant, recessive, and mitochondrial. However, the underpinnings of racial distinctiveness regional variation were incompletely understood. To fully evaluate ethnic specificity gap junction protein beta 2 (GJB2) tectorin alpha (TECTA) mu...
Mutations in the GJB2 gene are the most common cause of sensorineural non-syndromic deafness in different populations. One specific mutation, 35delG, has accounted for the majority of the mutations detected in the GJB2 gene in many countries. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of GJB2 mutations and the del(GJB6-D13S1830) mutation in non-syndromic deaf Brazilians. The 33 unrel...
Clinical application of mutation screening and its effect on the outcome of cochlear implantation is widely debated. We investigated the effect of mutations in GJB2 gene on the outcome of cochlear implantation in a population with a high rate of consanguineous marriage and autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss. Two hundred and one children with profound prelingual sensorineural hearing ...
background: mutations in the gjb2 gene encoding connexin 26 protein, are the main cause for autosomal recessive and sporadic non syndromic hearing loss in many populations. here, we have taken together and reviewed results from our six previous publications, our unpublished data from ten iranian provinces, as well as data from two previous mutation reports to provide a comprehensive collection ...
INTRODUCTION Several studies have associated congenital sensorineural hearing loss in children with prolongation of the cardiac parameter QTc. The cause of this association is unknown. At the same time, mutations in GJB2, which encodes connexin 26, are the most common cause of congenital hearing impairment. OBJECTIVE To compare electrocardiographic parameters (PR interval, QRS complex, and QT...
Mutations in the GJB2 gene encoding connexin26 (CX26) account for up to 50% of cases of autosomal recessive hearing loss. In contrast, only one GJB2 mutation has been reported to date in an autosomal dominant form of isolated prelingual hearing loss. We report here a novel heterozygous 605G→T mutation in GJB2 in all aVected members of a large family with late childhood onset of autosomal domina...
Background Autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) a most frequent hereditary type of hearing impairment, exhibit tremendous genetic heterogeneity. We aimed to determine the contribution of three common DFNB loci (DFNB4, DFNB28, and DFNB93), and mutation analysis of Gap Junction Beta-2 gene (GJB2) and GJB3 genes in ARNSHL subjects in southern Iran. Methods Thirty-six large ARN...
Background: Inherited hearing impairment affects about 1 in 1000 newborns. Up to 50 percent of all patients with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic prelingual deafness in many populations have mutations in the gene encoding the gap junction protein connexin 26 (GJB2) at locus DFNB1 (autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness) on chromosome 13q11-12. In East Asia, there is a common mutation (235del...
