Compound Heterozygosity for Two Novel SLC26A4 Mutations in a Large Iranian Pedigree with Pendred Syndrome [PDF]
Objectives. The aim of this study was to detect the genetic cause of deafness in a large Iranian family. Due to the importance of SLC26A4 in causing hearing lots, information about the gene mutations can be beneficial in molecular detection and ...

Effects of cAMP and CFTR modulation on apical fluid pH in human airway Calu‐3 cells
Abstract The airway epithelium serves as the first line of defense against inhaled insults present in the external environment by acting as a physical barrier and through host defense mechanisms. Proper maintenance of these host defense mechanisms relies on the regulation of airway surface liquid (ASL) composition and properties, a process that is ...

Slc26a4 (Δ/Δ) mice are deaf, develop an enlarged membranous labyrinth, and thereby largely resemble the human phenotype where mutations of SLC26A4 cause an enlarged vestibular aqueduct and sensorineural hearing loss.

Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) lacks iodide uptake ability due to MAPK activation increasing the expression of the histone methyltransferase EZH2, which represses thyroid differentiation genes (TDGs) such as the sodium iodide symporter (NIS). Dual inhibition of MAPK (U0126) and EZH2 (EPZ6438/Tazemetostat) reverses this mechanism, thus restoring TDG ...

Two novel SLC26A4 mutations in Iranian families with autosomal recessive hearing loss [PDF]
Objective: Due to the fact that SLC26A4 has been suggested as the second cause of hearing loss (HL) in Iran as well as many other countries, obtaining more comprehensive information about SLC26A4 mutations can facilitate more efficient genetic services ...

Novel pathogenic variants underlie SLC26A4 -related hearing loss in a multiethnic cohort [PDF]
The genetics of sensorineural hearing loss is characterized by a high degree of heterogeneity. Despite this heterogeneity, DNA variants found within SLC26A4 have been reported to be the second most common contributor after those of GJB2 in many populations.Whole exome sequencing and/or Sanger sequencing of SLC26A4 in 117 individuals with sensorineural ...

A Novel Intronic Variant Causes Aberrant Splicing of PCDH15 in a Family With Usher Syndrome Type 1F
Minigene splicing assays elucidated the pathogenicity of a novel intronic c.3717+5G>A mutation in the PCDH15 gene, which was identified in a family affected by Usher syndrome type 1F. The results demonstrated that the c.3717+5G>A mutation can lead to exon 27 skipping and retention of 51 bp at the 5′ end of intron 27, resulting in truncated or abnormal ...

Sgk1 Sensitive Pendrin Expression in Murine Platelets
Background: The anion exchanger pendrin (SLC26A4) is required for proper development of the inner ear, and contributes to iodide organification in thyroid glands as well as anion transport in various epithelia, such as airways and renal tubules.
