Screening of 10 DFNB Loci Causing Autosomal Recessive Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss in Two Iranian Populations Negative for GJB2 Mutations [PDF]
Background: Autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL), one of the global public health concerns, is marked by a high degree of genetic heterogeneity. The role of GJB2, as the most common cause of ARNSHL, is only

Genetic Linkage Analysis of 15 DFNB Loci in a Group of Iranian Families with Autosomal Recessive Hearing Loss [PDF]
Background: Hearing loss (HL) is the most frequent sensory birth defect in humans. Autosomal recessive non-syndromic HL (ARNSHL) is the most common type of hereditary HL.

Genetic Linkage Analysis of the DFNB21 Locus in Autosomal Recessive Hearing Loss in Large Families from Khuzestan Province [PDF]
Background: Hearing loss (HL) is the most common congenital defect in humans. One or two in thousand newborn babies have prelingual hearing loss. Autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) is the most common form of hereditary deafness ...

Population Data on D7S2425 Marker in Five Ethnic Groups of the Iranian Population: A Highly Informative Marker for Molecular Diagnosis of ARNSHL [PDF]
Background & Aims: SLC26A4 gene mutations are the second identifiable genetic cause of autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) after GJB2 mutations and are currently investigated in molecular diagnosis.In databases, several potential STR ...

Mutation Analysis of GJB2 and GJB6 Genes and the Genetic Linkage Analysis of Five Common DFNB Loci in the Iranian Families with Autosomal Recessive Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss [PDF]
The incidence of pre-lingual hearing loss (HL) is about 1 in 1000 neonates. More than 60% of cases are inherited. Non-syndromic HL (NSHL) is extremely heterogeneous: more than 130 loci have been identified so far.

Identification of novel compound heterozygous mutations of the MYO15A gene with autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss. [PDF]
We identified three compound heterozygous mutations in MYO15A that cause deafness, including two novel mutations, c.6804G > A (p.M2268I) and c.6188_6190delinsGTCA (p.F2063Cfs*60). The current findings expand the MYO15A pathogenic mutation spectrum to assist with genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.
