Deficiency of Vlgr1 resulted in deafness and susceptibility to audiogenic seizures while the degree of hearing impairment was not correlated with seizure severity in C57BL/6- and 129-backcrossed lines of Vlgr1 knockout mice.

Abstract excerpt

Vlgr1 (very large G-protein coupled receptor 1) knockout mice against hybrid backgrounds of the 129/Ola and C57BL/6 mouse strains show hearing deficit and high susceptibility to audiogenic seizures. The present study examined how hearing impairment and susceptibility to audiogenic seizures in Vlg...
