Research Abstract |
Some diseases including Meniere's disease and acute low tone sensory neural hearing loss indicate typical clinical feature, low tone hearing loss. WFS1 gene mutation which reported as a genetic cause of autosomal dominant type low tone sensory neural hearing loss. In this study, we perform gene association study of Meniere's disease. We determine 12 reported Menisre's disease associated SNPs and WFS1 gene SNP for 100 Meniere's disease patients, but we cannot found any statistical significant SNPs.
