SLC9A3R1 variant associated with age-related hearing loss
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is the most common sensory impairment in the elderly affecting millions of people worldwide. To shed light on the genetics of ARHL, a large cohort of 464 Italian patients has been deeply analyzed at clinical and molecular level.
A missense variant in SLC9A3R1 has been identified in two unrelated ARHL patients. A knock-in zebrafish model confirmed the pathogenic effect of the variant.
