As a powerful tool to identify the molecular pathogenesis of Mendelian disorders, exome sequencing was used to identify the genetic basis of two siblings with hearing loss and hypotrichosis and clarify the diagnosis. No pathogenic mutations in GJB2, GJB3 and GJB6 genes were found in the siblings. By analysis of exome of the proband, we identified a novel missense (p.R306C) mutation and a nonsense...
Enlarged vestibular aqueduct is the most common inner ear malformation in individuals with sensorineural hearing loss. Mutations in SLC26A4 can cause non-syndromic EVA. To date, more than 170 SLC26A4 mutations have been described. The aim of the present study was to detect and report genetic causes of four unrelated Chinese families with hearing loss.We evaluated 4 families presenting bilateral enlarged...
