609129 | OMIM | Auditory neuropathy, autosomal dominant, 1 (AUNA1) | A form of sensorineural hearing loss with absent or severely abnormal auditory brainstem response, in the presence of normal cochlear outer hair cell function and normal otoacoustic emissions. Auditory neuropathies result from a lesion in the area including the inner hair cells, connections between the inner hair cells and the cochlear branch of the auditory nerve, the auditory nerve itself and auditory pathways of the brainstem. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. A disease-causing mutation in the conserved 5'-UTR leads to increased protein expression. |
