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-syndrom [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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 TMPRSS3 as a Significant Contributor to Autosomal Recessive Hearing Loss in the Chinese Population

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2017
Hereditary hearing loss is characterized by a high degree of genetic heterogeneity. Mutations in the TMPRSS3 (transmembrane protease, serine 3) gene cause prelingual (DFNB10) or postlingual (DFNB8) deafness.

Screening of DFNB3 in Iranian families with autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss reveals a novel pathogenic mutation in the MyTh4 domain of the MYO15A gene in a linked family [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2016
Objective(s): Non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss (NSHL) is a common disorder affecting approximately 1 in 500 newborns. This type of hearing loss is extremely heterogeneous and includes over 100 loci. Mutations in the GJB2 gene have been implicated

Genetic Linkage Analysis of DFNB2 Locus with Autosomal Recessive Hearing Loss in Families Negative for GJB2 Mutations in Khuzestan Province [PDF]

open access: yesMajallah-i dānishgāh-i ̒ulūm-i pizishkī-i Arāk, 2016
Background: Hearing loss is a common sensory impairment in humans which half of its causes are genetic reasons. Genetic hearing loss can be divided into the two types of syndromic and non-syndromic, which 80% of non-syndromic cases is Autosomal Recessive

Decreased disulphide/thiol ratio in patients with autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction: Oxidative stress plays a key role in the formation of age-related, noise-induced and drug-induced hearing loss. Thiols are organic compounds which can react with free radicals to protect against tissue and cell damage caused by reactive ...

Genetics of hearing loss in Africans: use of next generation sequencing is the best way forward Review Open Access

open access: yes, 2015
Hearing loss is the most common communication disorder affecting about 1-7/1000 births worldwide. The most affected areas are developing countries due toextensively poor health care systems.

Summary of the genetic diagnostic results obtained in the present study.

open access: yes, 2013
Twelve multiplex families with idiopathic SNHI, including 10 ADNSHL and 2 ARNSHL families, were subjected to MPS for 80 known human deafness genes. Four out of 10 ADNSHL families were diagnosed to segregate causative variants, including GJB2 p.R75Q ...

open access: yes, 2016
Background and aims: Hearing loss, a sensorineural disorder, is one of the most common congenital impairments, occurring in approximately 1 in 500 newborns.

Investigating Seven Recently Identified Genes in 100 Iranian Families with Autosomal Recessive Non-syndromic Hearing Loss

open access: yesIranian Rehabilitation Journal, 2015
Objectives: Hearing loss (HL) is the most common sensory disorder, and affects 1 in 1000 newborns. About 50% of HL is due to genetics and 70% of them are non-syndromic with a recessive pattern of inheritance.
