摘要
Objective: DFNB1 locus has been reported as a major cause of autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing toss (ARNSHL) worldwide. 35delG and del(GJB6-D13S1830) are thought to be two common mutations in this Locus among Caucasians. The aim of this study is to determine the significance of these two mutations in aetiotogy of ARNSHL in Iran. Methods: One hundred and thirty-three unrelated patients with ARNSHL were tested by using multiplex allele-specific PCR assay after validation by positive control samples. Results: The frequency of 35delG was about 18.5%, however, del(GJB6-D13S1830) was not found in the studied patients. Parental. consanguinity was observed in 50% of 35delG-mutated families. Conclusions: Our results support founder effect regarding these mutations. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
