Genome-wide screen of otosclerosis in population biobanks: 27 loci and shared associations with skeletal structure

Genome-wide screen of otosclerosis in population biobanks: 27 loci and shared associations with skeletal structure

Otosclerosis is a common form of hearing loss, with an unclear genetic etiology. Here, the authors perform a genome-wide association study meta-analysis of otosclerosis identifying 27 genetic loci, pointing to genes involved in bone remodeling, skeletal disorders and transforming growth factor β sig...
