Abstract:
Objective:To elucidate the gene mutation presents in hair follicle cells,just as blood cells,in the aminoglycoside antibiotics induced deaf patients (AAID). Method:Mitochondrial DNA of blood cells and/or hair follicle cells from 8 members of 3 aminoglycoside antibiotics induced deafness families were analysed using PCRSSCP and Alw 26 Ⅰ digestian. Result:Our result showed that a gene mutation at nuleotide 1555 in 12 S rRNA of mitochondrial DNA appeared in blood cells and/or hair follicle cells of 7 subjects among those 8 members. Only a father with normal hearing did't exhibit such a mutation. Conclusion:This indicated that hairs could be used as a sample instead of blood to perform gene examination for AAID.
