چکیده
introduction: hearing loss is the most common sensory neural defect in humans, affecting 1 in 1000 neonates, with over half of these cases predicted to be hereditary in nature. most hereditary hearing loss is inherited in a recessive fashion, accounting for approximately 80 % of non-syndromic hearing loss (nshl). mutations in gjb2 gene are major cause of inherited deafness in the european and american populations. to date, more than 90 mutations have been reported in this gene. although most of these mutations are rare but 35delg mutation is the most common deafness causing allelic variant of gjb2 in most parts of the world. methods: in this project, 120 probands from 120 families with arnshl in yazd province were studied. mutations screening of gjb2 was performed by amplification refractory mutation system (arms)-pcr for detection of 35delg and then all samples excluding 35delg homozygote were analyzed by dhplc and direct sequencing. results: gjb2-related deafness was present in 7.5% of this population. we identified 4 mutations (35delg, 312del14, 314del14 and 167delt) and 4 polymorphisms (v153i, v27i, e114g and r127h) in this study. conclusion: prevalence of gjb2 mutations in this population was lower than american and european populations, and also other provinces of iran. interestingly, 312del14 rather than 35delg was the most common mutation found in the population under study. 56.25 % of gjb2 mutant alleles carried 312del14 mutation. to date, this frequency has not been reported in any of the world populations.

Spectrum of GJB2 (Cx26) gene mutations in Iranian Azeri patients with nonsyndromic autosomal recessive hearing loss.
OBJECTIVE Hereditary hearing impairment is a genetically heterogeneous disorder. In spite of this, mutations in the GJB2 gene, encoding connexin 26 (Cx26), are a major cause of nonsyndromic recessive hearing loss in many countries and are largely dependent on ethnic groups. The purpose of our study was to characterize the type and prevalence of GJB2 mutations among Azeri population of Iran. M...
متن کاملRelative frequency of GJB2 gene mutations in autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) patients in Lorestan population
Background: Congenital hearing loss due to different genetic and environmental causes affects 1 in 1000 newborns. Mutations in the GJB2 (Gap Junction Beta-2) gene encoding the gap junction protein connexin 26 have been established as the main cause of autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss. Materials and methods: The aim of this study was to study the frequency of GJB2 Mutations in Lor...

Congenital hearing loss with many genetic and environmental causes affects 1 in 1000 newborns. Mutations in the GJB2(Gap Junction Beta-2) gene encoding the gap junction protein connexin 26 have been established as the main cause of autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss. The aim of this study was to study the frequency of one mutation (35delG) of GJB2 gene in Kerman non-syndromic deaf p...
متن کاملAutosomal Recessive Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss: A Case Report with a Mutation in TRIOBP Gene
Hearing loss (HL) is the most common sensory defect. Various genetic as well as environmental factors have been shown to contribute in it. More than 100 loci have been recognized to cause autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL). Here, we report a 6-year old female patient with bilateral pre-lingual HL in whom a mutation has been identified in TRIOBP gene (c.6362C>T, S2121L). In s...
متن کاملغربالگری ناشنوایان غیرسندرمی جسمی مغلوب برای جایگاه کروموزومی ناشنوایی غیرسندرمی با وراثت مغلوب نوع I(DFNB1) در استانهای آذربایجان شرقی و غربی
Background & Aim: Hereditary hearing loss(HHL) affects one in 1000-2000 newborns and more than 50% of these cases have a genetic base. About 70% of HHL are nonsyndromic with autosomal recessive forms accounting for 85% of the genetic load. Different genes have been reported to be involved, but mutations in GJB2 gene at DFNB1 locus have been established as the basis of autosomal recessive no...
متن کاملThe worldwide frequency of MYO15A gene mutations in patients with autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss: A meta‐analysis
MYO15A is the third most crucial gene in hereditary sensorineural hearing loss after GJB2 and SLC26A4. In the present study, we reviewed the prevalence of MYO15A mutations in patients with autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL). In this meta-analysis, we conducted a search of PubMed, Web of Science, Excerpta Medica Database, and Scopus, and identified the articles up to Septemb...
