BackgroundMutations in SLC26A4, which encodes pendrin, are a common cause of deafness. SLC26A4 mutations are responsible for Pendred syndrome and non-syndromic enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA).

Macrophage invasion contributes to degeneration of stria vascularis in Pendred syndrome mouse model
Background Pendred syndrome, an autosomal-recessive disorder characterized by deafness and goiter, is caused by a mutation of SLC26A4, which codes for the anion exchanger pendrin.

Background Variants in the SLC26A4 gene are correlated with nonsyndromic hearing loss with an enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA). This study aimed to identify the genetic causes in a Chinese family with EVA, and the pathogenicity of the detected variants.

Impaired Renal Base Excretion in Secretin Receptor Knock‐Out Mice During Prolonged Base‐Loading
ABSTRACT Aim Secretin was recently found to play a pivotal role in the renal adaptation to acute base excess. Here, secretin increases pendrin‐dependent HCO3− secretion from the beta‐intercalated cells in the cortical collecting ducts. Whether secretin and its receptor play a role during prolonged base‐loading remains unknown.

Spektrum genetischer Schwerhörigkeit im SLC26A4 Gen
Einleitung: Mutationen im SLC26A4-Gen gehören zu den häufigsten Ursachen für genetische Schwerhörigkeit. Das breite phänotypische Spektrum reicht vom typischen Pendred-Syndrom bis zu nicht-syndromaler Schwerhörigkeit mit erweitertem, vestibulären ...

Molecular Features of SLC26A4 Common Variant p.L117F
The SLC26A4 gene, which encodes the anion exchanger pendrin, is involved in determining syndromic (Pendred syndrome) and non-syndromic (DFNB4) autosomal recessive hearing loss.

ABSTRACT Background Decreased apical bicarbonate transport into the airway surface liquid (ASL) has been associated with decreased ASL pH, which can have adverse respiratory effects. However, the human CF epithelium can normalize ASL pH. Thus, we hypothesized that pH regulatory proteins other than the CFTR could be altered in the CF epithelium ...

Background The enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) is the commonest malformation of inner ear accompanied by sensorineural hearing loss in children. Three genes SLC26A4, FOXI1, and KCNJ10 have been associated with EVA, among them SLC26A4 being the most ...

The Burden: Hearing loss (HL) is the most prevalent sensory disorder globally, affecting 1.5 million individuals in Brazil. The Gap: While > 150 genes are linked to HL, the genetic architecture in underrepresented populations like Brazil is poorly defined. The Problem: This lack of data limits diagnostic yield and the application of precision medicine.
