PENDRED syndrome with ectopic thyroid: About a delayed diagnosis

open access: yes, 2023
We describe a case of a delayed diagnosis of Pendred syndrome. The patient had a history of total thyroidectomy 13 years ago .And presented when aged 30 with a cervical abscess of ectopic thyroid.

An iPSC line (TYWHSTi002-A) derived from a patient with Pendred syndrome caused by compound heterozygous mutations in the SLC26A4 gene

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2020
Pendred syndrome (PDS) is hereditary and is characterized by thyroid enlargement, cochlea abnormalities, and hearing impairment. In this study, we established an induced pluripotent stem cell line from a PDS patient with familial thyroid disorder, caused

The HSP70 co-chaperone DNAJC14 targets misfolded pendrin for unconventional protein secretion

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Mutations in pendrin, a plasma membrane transporter, lead to Pendred syndrome, which is associated with hearing loss. Here, Jung et al. show that cell-surface expression of a mutated form of pendrin can be restored by blocking ER-to-Golgi traffic and ...

Quantitative analysis and correlative evaluation of video-oculography, micro-computed tomography, and histopathology in Pendrin-null mice

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2023
Patients with SLC26A4 mutations exhibit highly variable hearing loss and vestibular dysfunction. Although Slc26a4 mutant mice similarly exhibit vestibular deficits, including circling behavior, head tilting, and torticollis, the underlying pathogenesis ...

Asymmetric pendrin homodimer reveals its molecular mechanism as anion exchanger

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Pendrin (SLC26A4) is an anion exchanger expressed in the apical membranes of selected epithelia. Pendrin ablation causes Pendred syndrome, a genetic disorder associated with sensorineural hearing loss, hypothyroid goiter, and reduced blood pressure ...

Genetic Linkage Analysis of 15 DFNB Loci in a Group of Iranian Families with Autosomal Recessive Hearing Loss [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 2011
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.

Pendred syndrome--100 years of underascertainment?

open access: yes, 1997
Pendred syndrome is an autosomal recessive condition classically characterized by deafness and goitre. Since both cochlear and thyroid pathology are required to secure the diagnosis, it is unclear whether the condition might present without the classical

Endocrine glands and hearing: Auditory manifestations of various endocrine and metabolic conditions

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2017
The aetiology of hearing loss in humans is multifactorial. Besides genetic, environmental and infectious causes, several endocrine and metabolic abnormalities are associated with varying degrees of hearing impairment.

Comprehensive analysis of syndromic hearing loss patients in Japan

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
More than 400 syndromes associated with hearing loss and other symptoms have been described, corresponding to 30% of cases of hereditary hearing loss. In this study we aimed to clarify the mutation spectrum of syndromic hearing loss patients in Japan by ...
