A novel genetic variant associated with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo within the LOXL1.
Authors
Abstract
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a common, self-limited, and favorable prognostic peripheral vestibular disorder. BPPV is transmitted in an autosomal dominant fashion, but most cases occur sporadically. Little research has been reported regarding the mutation spectrum of sporadic BPPV in a large cohort. This study attempted to identify the causative candidate variants associated with BPPV in VDR, LOXL1, and LOXL1-AS1.
