Researchers Identify Genetic Cause of Congenital Deafness and Two Other Rare Diseases
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, along with international collaborators, have developed a novel computational approach to identify previously unknown genetic causes of rare diseases. By analyzing large-scale genomic data from 77,539 participants in the 100,000 Genomes Project, they discovered associations between genes and 269 rare disease classes, including 19 new associations not previously reported. The study validated three novel genetic links—primary lymphedema, ...

Researchers Find New Possible Link Between Alzheimer’s Disease and Hearing Loss
The link between hearing loss and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has been studied for decades, with research suggesting that hearing loss may increase the risk of cognitive decline. A recent study from the University of Rochester Medical Center investigated this connection using mouse models of AD, focusing on central auditory processing disorder (CAPD) and its relationship to amyloid plaques. Researchers found that older 5xFAD mice exhibited hearing changes similar to those seen in humans with AD, w...

Researchers Report Reversing Hearing Loss in Mice: A Breakthrough in Gene Activation
A groundbreaking study by researchers at King’s College London has demonstrated the potential to reverse hearing loss caused by genetic mutations in mice. By activating the Spns2 gene, which is crucial for maintaining ion balance necessary for sensory hair cell function in the cochlea, the team successfully restored auditory function and protected hair cells from degeneration in mutant mice. The treatment was most effective when administered early in disease progression, highlighting a critical...
