Role of Hearing Loss Genes in the Sensory Epithelia Associated With Meniere Disease

open access: yesSensory Neuroscience, Volume 2, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Meniere disease (MD) is an inner ear disorder characterized by episodic vertigo, tinnitus, fluctuating sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), and aural fullness. Its hallmark pathological feature is endolymphatic hydrops. MD shows significant familial clustering in European and East Asian populations, supporting a strong genetic component in ...

Mutation analysis of SLC26A4 (Pendrin) gene in a Brazilian sample of hearing-impaired subjects

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2018
Background Mutations in the SLC26A4 gene are associated with Pendred syndrome and autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness (DFNB4). Both disorders have similar audiologic characteristics: bilateral hearing loss, often severe or profound, which may be ...

Branchial localization of acid (A‐type) and base (B‐type) excreting ionocytes in Amazonian stenohaline freshwater Potamotrygon ray

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 922-931, March 2026.
Abstract The branchial epithelium of Potamotrygon—a member of the only strictly freshwater elasmobranch family Potamotrygonidae—was observed via immunohistochemistry, and two distinct forms of ionocytes were identified. The acid (A‐type) and base (B‐type) secreting cells with respective basolateral–apical localizations of Na+/K+‐ATPase–Na+/H+ exchanger

Digenic inheritance of mutations in EPHA2 and SLC26A4 in Pendred syndrome

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
While biallelic mutations of the SLC26A4 gene cause non-syndromic hearing loss with enlarged vestibular aqueducts or Pendred syndrome, a considerable number of patients carry mono-allelic mutations.

Population Data on D7S2425 Marker in Five Ethnic Groups of the Iranian Population: A Highly Informative Marker for Molecular Diagnosis of ARNSHL [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Kerman University of Medical Sciences, 2014
Background & Aims: SLC26A4 gene mutations are the second identifiable genetic cause of autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) after GJB2 mutations and are currently investigated in molecular diagnosis.In databases, several potential STR ...

Generation of a human iPS cell line (CGMH.SLC26A4919-2) from a Pendred syndrome patient carrying SLC26A4 c.919-2A>G splice-site mutation

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2019
SLC26A4 is the second most frequent gene implicated in congenital hearing loss after GJB2 mutations. Here, we report the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), from a patient who was carrying a homozygous c.919-2A>G variant in the SLC26A4 ...

Comparative analysis of haplotypes carrying pathogenic variants c.1545T>G, c.2027T>A and c.919-2A>G of the SLC26A4 gene in patients with hearing loss from the Tyva Republic (Southern Siberia)

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции
Pathogenic variants in the SLC26A4 gene (OMIM #605646), leading to non-syndromic recessive hearing loss type 4 (DFNB4) and Pendred syndrome, significantly contribute to the etiology of hearing loss in many populations of the world.
