Genetic advances in Meniere Disease.

ABSTRACT: Meniere Disease (MD) is an idiopathic inner ear disease with complex etiology and pathogenesis, which is still unclear. With the development in gene analysis technology, the genetic research of MD has attracted extensive attention, resulting in a large number of studies on the research of the relationship between human genes and MD. This paper aims to review the studies on this topic in recent years. The studies mainly focused on the genetics of familial MD and the correlation between MD and potentially related functional genes. The results of these studies have demonstrated the complexity and diversity of the pathogenesis of MD with both genetic and epigenetic alterations, suggesting that MD might be related to inflammation, immunity, aqua and ion balance in the lymphatic fluid, virus inf
