A case of Waardenburg syndrome type I with congenital sensorineural hearing loss
Waardenburg syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by hearing loss in association with pigmentary defects of the skin, hair and eyes. It is caused by the gene mutation involved in the development of melanocyte.

SOX10 is one of the master transcription factors in neural crest development. Human SOX10 mutations are associated with Waardenburg syndrome type 4 (Waardenburg-Shah, WS4), which can be inherited in both autosomal dominant and recessive patterns.

Pax proteins in embryogenesis and their role in nervous system development [PDF]
The mammalian Pax genes encode a family of transcription factors, which play important roles in embryonic development and organogenesis. During the central nervous system development Pax genes have substantial roles in neural differentiation and regional

We report a case of Waardenburg syndrome in a female child aged 2yrs. Petrus Johannes Waardenburg(1) , a Dutch Ophthalmologist in 1951 described individuals with retinal pigmentary differences who had varying degrees of hearing loss and dystopia canthorum (i.e., latral displacement of inner canthi of eyes).

Pinpointing brainstem mechanisms responsible for autonomic dysfunction in Rett syndrome:therapeutic perspectives for 5-HT1A agonists [PDF]
Rett syndrome is a neurological disorder caused by loss of function of methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2). Reduced function of this ubiquitous transcriptional regulator has a devastating effect on the central nervous system.

Waardenburg syndrome: A rare case
Waardenburg Syndrome is a rare disorder of neural crest cell development. It is genetically inherited. Varying in prevalence from 1:42000 to 1:50,000, it compromises approximately 2-5% of congenital deaf children.

Mechanism underlying synergic activation of Tyrosinase promoter by MITF and IRF4 [PDF]
Background: The transcription factor interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4) was identified to be involved in human pigmentation by genome-wide association studies (GWASs).

Cost effective assay choice for rare disease study designs [PDF]
High throughput assays tend to be expensive per subject. Often studies are limited not so much by the number of subjects available as by assay costs, making assay choice a critical issue.
