Usher Syndrome

Information about Usher Syndrome: characteristics, related genes and pathways, plus antibodies you can use for research. This page is being enriched constantly, if you see some information you would like this page to include please send your suggestions to us.

Overview of Usher Syndrome

Most recent studies have shown that Usher Syndrome shares some biological mechanisms with amaurosis, blind-vision, complete-hearing-loss, cytogenetic-abnormality, deafness-congenital, dystrophy, hearing-problem, hereditary-diseases, leber-congenital-amaurosis, night-blindness, retinal-degeneration, retinal-diseases, retinitis-pigmentosa, sensorineural-hearing-loss-(disorder), usher-syndrome-type-i, vestibular-diseases, visual-impairment.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Usher Syndrome, and have been seen in publications frequently: Cell Adhesion, Cell Death, Cell Development, Cell-cell Adhesion, Glycosylation, Intraflagellar Transport, Localization, Melanosome Transport, Mrna Splicing, Pathogenesis, Phagocytosis, Phototransduction, Pigmentation, Protein Destabilization, Reflex, Regeneration, Sperm Motility, Swimming, Translation, Transport

Quite a number of genes have been found to play important roles in Usher Syndrome, such as CDH23, CLRN1, ERG, GJB2, KCNH2, MYO7A, PCDH15, RPE, RPGR, USH1C, USH1G, USH2A. See what Boster has to offer for the research of these genes by clicking the gene name links below and view a more detailed info card/product listing for that gene.

In a later update, we will include information such as current drugs and therapy solutions as well as on-going and past clinical trials for this disease. Plesae stay updated.
