Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is a nervous system tumor disorder caused by inactivation of the merlin suppressor encoded NF2 gene. Bilateral vestibular schwannomas are diagnostic hallmark NF2. Mainstream treatment options for NF2-associated tumors have been limited to surgery and radiotherapy; however, off-label uses targeted molecular therapies becoming increasingly common. Here, we investigated drugs targeting two kinases activated in schwannomas, c-Met Src. We demonstrated that...
Background . Waardenburg syndrome (WS) is one of the most common forms syndromic deafness with heterogeneity loci and alleles variable expressivity clinical features. Methods The technology single-nucleotide variants (SNV) copy number variation (CNV) detection was developed to investigate genotype spectrum WS in a Chinese population. Results Ninety patients 24 additional family members were recruited for study. Fourteen mutations had not been previously reported, including c.808C>G,...

Abstract Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is one of the most common infectious diseases middle ear especially affecting children, leading to delay in language development and communication. Although Staphylococcus aureus pathogen associated with CSOM, its interaction epithelial cells not well known. In present study, we observed that otopathogenic S. has ability invade human (HMEECs) a dose time dependent manner. Scanning electron microscopy demonstrated increase number on surface...
Objectives/Hypothesis The role of social determinants health in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is poorly characterized. Limited research examining CRS disparities indicates that minority status associated with worse CRS. However, many these studies are retrospective or performed populations without substantial ethnic minorities. Rhinologists need to characterize existing disease develop targeted strategies for improving care populations. This prospective study assesses preoperative burden...
Hair cells (HCs) play crucial roles in perceiving sound, acceleration, and fluid motion. The tonotopic architecture of the sensory epithelium recognizes mechanical stimuli convert them into electrical signals. expression regulation genes inner ear is very important to keep organ functional. Our study first investigate role epigenetic reader Brd4 mouse ear. We demonstrate that HC specific deletion vivo sufficient cause profound hearing loss (HL), degeneration stereocilia, nerve fibers,...

<div>Abstract<p>Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) is a tumor predisposition syndrome caused by germline inactivating mutations in the NF2 gene encoding merlin suppressor. Patients develop multiple benign types nervous system including bilateral vestibular schwannomas. Standard treatments include surgery and radiation therapy, which may lead to loss of hearing, impaired facial nerve function other complications. Kinase inhibitor monotherapies have been evaluated clinically for...
