Alternative titles and symbols : Hearing loss, progressive, with optic atrophy and/or impaired glucose regulation;
Description : This autosomal dominant Wolfram-like syndrome is characterized by the clinical triad
of congenital progressive hearing impairment, diabetes mellitus, and optic atrophy.
The hearing impairment, which is usually diagnosed in the first decade of life, is
relatively constant and alters mainly low- and middle-frequency ranges (summary by
Valero et al., 2008). Wolfram syndrome (WFS1; 222300) is an autosomal recessive allelic
disorder characterized by optic atrophy, diabetes mellitus, hearing loss, and diabetes
insipidus, and is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the WFS1
gene. An autosomal dominant syndrome involving optic atrophy with or without deafness,
ophthalmoplegia, myopathy, ataxia, and neuropathy (125250), is caused by heterozygous
mutation in the OPA1 gene (605290).;
Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the wolframin gene (WFS1, 606201.0020);
