New prognostic markers of hearing impairment in children: gene-gene interaction and approximation models

open access: yesJournal of Education, Health and Sport, 2020
Objective: to evaluate the gene-gene interaction, assess the risks and develop some approximation models of hearing loss / deafness occurrence in children, depending on the genes polymorphism gab junction B2 (GJB2, rs80338939), and interleukin-4 (IL-4 ...

Variants in Genes Associated with Hearing Loss in Children: Prevalence in a Large Canadian Cohort

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 134, Issue 8, Page 3832-3838, August 2024.
This study assessed the prevalence of genetic variants associated with hearing loss in a large cohort of children. A total of 485 children underwent genetic testing, which identified 923 variants, most of which were of uncertain significance. A genetic cause of hearing loss was found in 15% of children which is lower than typically reported.

Mutation spectrum of hearing loss patients in Northwest China: Identification of 20 novel variants

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 12, Issue 6, June 2024.
We detected and analysed 362 Chinese non‐syndromic HL patients, of whom 102 patients were assigned a molecular diagnosis with 52 different variants in 22 deafness genes. Twenty of the variants in 15 deafness genes were novel. Our study expanded the spectrum of deafness gene variation.

New, easy and rapid high-throughput detection method for the common GJB2 (CX26), 35delG mutation

open access: yes, 2007
: GJB2 (Gap Junction protein beta type 2; Connexin 26, CX26) is known for its contribution to nonsyndromic recessive deafness (NSRD). One particular mutation, 35delG, a deletion of one guanine from a stretch of six leading to a frame shift early in the ...

Autosomal recessive non‐syndromic hearing loss genes in Pakistan during the previous three decades

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 28, Issue 8, April 2024.
Abstract Hearing loss is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorder, with over 148 genes and 170 loci associated with its pathogenesis. The spectrum and frequency of causal variants vary across different genetic ancestries and are more prevalent in populations that practice consanguineous marriages.

Investigating GJB2 Mutation in 31 Individuals With Non-syndromic Hearing Loss

open access: yesMajallah-i dānishgāh-i ̒ulūm-i pizishkī-i Arāk, 2021
Background and Aim: Non-syndromic hearing loss is a genetically heterogeneous disorder. Mutation in the GJB2 gene is a major cause of non-syndromic hearing loss in numerous countries. This study aimed to evaluate GJB2 mutations in 31 individuals with non-

Genetic screening of 15 hearing loss variants in 77,647 neonates with clinical follow‐up

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2024.
This study was the largest‐scale neonatal carrier screening for hearing loss genes in Southeast China. It showed an overall prevalence and genotype distribution characteristics of hearing loss genes in newborn population. Our workflow facilitated the application and development of neonatal genetic screening.
