Presentation
Affected individuals present with congenital deafness and a highly variable degree of retinal degeneration. Using a positional candidate approach, we identified a new member of the cadherin gene superfamily, CDH23. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Myopia is presented as an example of a complex clinical phenotype where genes and environment interact. [books.google.com]
In the present study, we carried out a systematic mutation screening of these genes in USH1 patients from USA and from UK. [wwww.unboundmedicine.com]
It has been shown that the type of CDH23 mutation differentiates between these two phenotypes due to the varying degree of protein dysfunction resulting from each mutation type. 1–3 Here, we present a patient with congenital deafness and sector RP who [healio.com]

Cochlear implants, unilateral or bilateral, are now more frequently used for patients with profound congenital hearing loss. Both cochlear implants and hearing aids are more effective when implemented early. [orpha.net]

Suggestibility
Haplotype analysis by SNPs within CDH23 suggests common ancestors for each of the mutations. Among the total of 52 USH1 cases studied by us, CDH23 mutations account for about 10% of all disease alleles. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
1997, Haplotype and phylogenetic analyses suggest that one European-specific mtDNA background plays a role in the expression of Leber hereditary optic neuropathy by increasing the penetrance of the primary mutations 11778 and 14484. Am. J. [books.google.com]

There are currently no approved treatments available for Usher syndrome type 1B. UshStat has received European and US Orphan Drug Designation which brings development, regulatory and commercial benefits. [news-medical.net]
To date, there are no approved treatments for XLRS. [retinafoundation.org]
Research using mouse models will help determine the function of Usher genes and inform potential treatments. [nidcd.nih.gov]
Prognosis

Prognosis The prognosis mainly depends on the progression of the visual loss: blindness occurs in almost all cases between 50 and 70 years of age. The documents contained in this web site are presented for information purposes only. [orpha.net]
Overall, the patient's genotype appears to confer better visual prognosis compared to most patients with USH1. [healio.com]
The prognosis is optimistic, as most patients retain reading vision throughout life ( Felbor et al., 1997 ; Yamaguchi et al., 2001 ).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of vitelliform macular dystrophy, see VMD1 ( OMIM ). [mendelian.co]
Although N48K mutation testing will be an excellent diagnostic tool for USH3 in Ashkenazi Jews, it will be less useful for predicting clinical prognosis due to the highly variable expressivity that we observed. [jmg.bmj.com]

Most of these mutations disrupt protein production, resulting in an abnormally small, nonfunctional version of cadherin 23 or preventing the production of any of this protein. Less frequently, mutations change single amino acids in cadherin 23. [ghr.nlm.nih.gov]
