First Case

Objectives: This study aims to document the clinical features of patients with COL11A2 mutations and to describe the usefulness of massively parallel sequencing. Methods: One thousand one hundred twenty (1120) Japanese hearing loss patients from 53 ENT departments nationwide participated in this study. Massively parallel sequencing of 63 genes implicated in hearing loss was performed to identify the genetic causes in the Japanese hearing loss patients. Results: A novel mutation in COL11A2 (c.3937_3948delCCCCCAGGGCCA) was detected in an affected family, and it was segregated in all hearing loss individuals. The clinical findings of this family were compatible with non-ocular Stickler syndrome. Orofacial features of mid-facial hypoplasia and slowly progressive mild to moderate hearing loss were also presented. Audiological examinations showed favorable auditory performance with hearing aid(s). Conclusion: This is the first case report of the genetic diagnosis of a non-ocular Stickler syndrome family in the Japanese population. We suggest that it is important to take both genetic analysis data and clinical symptoms into consideration to make an accurate diagnosis.

Autosomal Recessive Pattern

Background: Diagnosis of hereditary hearing loss (HHL) as a heterogeneous disorder is very important especially in countries with high rates of consanguinity where the autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance is prevalent. Techniques such as next-generation sequencing, a comprehensive genetic test using targeted genomic enrichment and massively parallel sequencing (TGE + MPS), have made the diagnosis more cost-effective. The aim of this study was to determine HHL variants with comprehensive genetic testing in our country. of this study was to determine HHL variants with comprehensive genetic testing in our country. Methods: Fifty GJB2 negative individuals with HHL were referred to the Kariminejad-Najmabadi Pathology and Genetics Center, Tehran, one of the reference diagnostic genetic laboratories in Iran, during a 3-year period between 2014 and 2017. They were screened with the OtoSCOPE test, the targeted genomic enrichment and massively parallel sequencing (TGE + MPS) platform after a detailed history had been taken along with clinical evaluation. Results: Among 32 out of 50 GJB2 negative patients (64%), 34 known pathogenic and novel variants were detected of which 16 (47%) were novel, identified in 10 genes of which the most prevalent were CDH23, MYO7A and MYO15A. Conclusion: These results provide a foundation from which to make appropriate recommendations for the use of comprehensive genetic testing in the evaluation of Iranian patients with hereditary hearing loss.

Targeted Genomic Enrichment

Objective: We identified 2 patients in 1 family who had novel mutations in GRXCR1, which caused progressive hearing loss. Methods: One thousand one hundred twenty Japanese hearing loss patients with sensorineural hearing loss from unrelated families were enrolled in this study. Targeted genomic enrichment with massively parallel sequencing of all known nonsyndromic hearing loss genes was used to identify the genetic causes of hearing loss. Results: In this study, 2 affected individuals with compound heterozygous mutations—c.439C>T (p.R147C) and c.784C>T (p.R262X)—in GRXCR1 were identified. The proband had moderate to severe hearing loss and suffered from dizziness with bilateral canal paralysis. Conclusion: Our cases are the first identified in the Japanese population and are consistent with previously reported cases. The frequency of mutations in GRXCR1 seems to be extremely rare. This study underscores the importance of using comprehensive genetic testing for hearing loss. Furthermore, longitudinal audiologic assessment and precise vestibular testing are necessary for a better understanding of the mechanisms of hearing loss and vestibular dysfunction caused by GRXCR1 mutations.
