초록

Background and Objectives: Autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL)with genetic origin is common (1/2000 births). ARNSHL can be associated with mutations ingap junction protein beta 2 (GJB2). To this end, this cohort investigation aimed to find thecontribution of GJB2 gene mutations with the genotype-phenotype correlations in 45 ARNSHLcases in the Kurdish population. Subjects and Methods: Genomic DNA was extractedfrom a total of 45 ARNSHL families. The linkage analysis with 3 short tandem repeat markerslinked to GJB2 was performed on 45 ARNSHL families. Only 9 of these families werelinked to the DFNB1 locus. All the 45 families who took part were sequenced for confirmationlinkage analysis (to perform a large project). Results: A total of three different mutationswere determined. Two of which [c.35delG and c.-23+1G>A (IVS1+1G>A)] were previouslyreported but (c.299-300delAT) mutation was novel in the Kurdish population. The homozygouspathogenic mutations of GJB2 gene was observed in nine out of the 45 families(20%), also heterozygous genotype (c.35delG/N)+(c.-23+1G>A/c.-23+1G>A) were observedin 4/45 families (8.8%). The degree of hearing loss (HL) in patients with other mutationswas less severe than patients with c.35delG homozygous mutation (p<0.001). Conclusions:Our data suggest that GJB2 mutations constitute 20% of the etiology of ARNSHL inIran; moreover, the c.35delG mutation is the most common HL cause in the Kurdish population. Therefore, these mutations should be included in the molecular testing of HL in thispopulation.
