Pendred syndrome (PS) is the most frequent form of genetically related syndromic hearing
loss, and is associated with mutations of pendrin, encoded by the SLC26A4 gene. This …

Pendred syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by sensorineural
hearing loss, with malformations of the inner ear, ranging from enlarged vestibular aqueduct …

Abstract Pendrin (SLC26A4, PDS) is an electroneutral anion exchanger transporting I-, Cl-,
HCO3-, OH-, SCN-and formate. In the thyroid, pendrin is expressed at the apical membrane …

Background: Pendrin is a transport protein exchanging chloride for other anions, such as
iodide in the thyroid gland or bicarbonate in the inner ear. Mutations in the SLC26A4 gene …

Abstract Human pendrin (SLC26A4) is an anion transporter mostly expressed in the inner
ear, thyroid and kidney. SLC26A4 gene mutations are associated with a broad phenotypic …

Hearing loss with enlargement of the vestibular aqueduct (EVA) can be associated with
mutations of the SLC26A4 gene encoding pendrin, a transmembrane Cl−/I−/HCO …

Objective Pendred syndrome (PS) is characterized by the association of sensorineural
hearing loss (SNHL) and a partial iodide organification defect at the thyroid level. It is …

Pendred syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by sensorineural
deafness, goiter and a partial defect in iodide organification. Goiter development and …

Pendred's syndrome is an autosomal-recessive disorder characterized by deafness and
goiter. After our recent identification of the human gene mutated in Pendred's syndrome …

Background: Pendrin is a multifunctional anion transporter that exchanges chloride and
iodide in the thyroid, as well as chloride and bicarbonate in the inner ear, kidney and …
