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]
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.

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]
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]
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
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 ...

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

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.
