Abstract excerpt
This review integrates molecular, clinical, and translational data to provide an updated understanding of GJB2-related deafness and its emerging treatment landscape. Truncating mutations in GJB2 typically cause severe-profound hearing loss (HL) phenotypes, whereas non-truncating alleles are often associated with milder or progressive phenotypes. Geographic variation in variant prevalence contributes to regional...
