Síndrome de Pendred causada por mutação em homozigoze no gene SLC26A4 em uma família brasileira consangüínea [PDF]
Pendred Syndrome (PS) is an autossomal recessive disorder characterized by sensorineural deafness, goiter and iodide organification defect. The hearing loss is associated with inner ear abnormalities, ranging from an isolated enlarged vestibular aqueduct

Identification of IQGAP1 as a SLC26A4 (Pendrin)-Binding Protein in the Kidney
Background: Several members of the SLC26A family of transporters, including SLC26A3 (DRA), SLC26A5 (prestin), SLC26A6 (PAT-1; CFEX) and SLC26A9, form multi-protein complexes with a number of molecules (e.g., cytoskeletal proteins, anchoring or adaptor proteins, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator, and protein kinases).

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 ...

Accurate identification of the genetic determinants of rare diseases is essential for effective recurrence‐risk management and informed reproductive decision‐making. Although whole‐exome sequencing (WES) and whole‐genome sequencing (WGS) have significantly improved diagnostic capabilities, a subset of affected families still receives no definitive ...

Development of the stria vascularis and potassium regulation in the human fetal cochlea : insights into hereditary sensorineural hearing loss [PDF]
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is one of the most common congenital disorders in humans, afflicting one in every thousand newborns. The majority is of heritable origin and can be divided in syndromic and nonsyndromic forms. Knowledge of the expression

Targeted expression of SLC26A4 rescues hearing and balance in Slc26a4 Δ/Δ mice
Mutations of SLC26A4 are a common cause for deafness associated with enlarged vestibular aqueduct. SLC26A4 encodes pendrin, an anion exchanger expressed in a variety of epithelial cells in the cochlea and the vestibular labyrinth ...

This study unveils ITGA2⁺ tumor cells as key drivers of pediatric thyroid cancer aggressiveness. These cells orchestrate dual oncogenic pathways: GLUT1‐mediated glycolytic reprogramming and M2 macrophage polarization. This metabolic‐immunological crosstalk promotes tumor progression and metastasis.
