Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the deafness-related gene mutation frequency and hotspots in patients of Fuzhou city with non-syndromic hearing loss (NSHL). METHODS Peripheral blood samples were obtained from 88 cases of patients with hearing loss after clinical history inquiry and clinical examination. Their genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood by extraction kits to undergo polymerase chain reaction, traditional capillary electrophoresis sequencing and High-throughput sequencing so as to detect the mutations of deafness-related gene. RESULTS Among the 88 patients with NSHL, the gene mutation frequency was 34.09%.In the patients, 14 cases had mitochondrial 12 S rRNA mutations, six cases had GJB2 gene mutations and three cases had SLC26A4 mutations, two cases had MYO15A mutations, the other five cases had MYO7A, OTOF, TECTA, TMC1 and ILDR1 gene mutation respectively. CONCLUSION Among the 88 patients with NSHL, the most frequent mutation causing hereditary deadness was mutation in mitochondrial 12 S rRNA, followed by GJB2 and SLC26A4, The other genes such as MYO7A, OTOF, TECTA, TMC1 and ILDR1 gene were infrequent. The study could provide theoretical reference in genetic diagnosis, prevention and cure of hearing loss.
