Types of deafness
• Conductive
• Sensorineural
• Auditory
neuropathy
• Syndromic vs.
nonsyndromic
Hearing Loss
• Most common sensory disorder, affects 28 million
Americans
• Over 500 syndromes such as Usher (deafness and
retinitis pigmentosa causing blindness)
• 50% develop presbycusis (age-related HL) by age 80
• 2 in 1000 children are born with educationally
significant hearing loss; 5 in 1000 by adolescence
• Association studies of presbycusis show increased
risk with smoking, high BMI, noise exposure;
moderate alcohol consumption is protective
• SNHL can be rehabilitated but not cured

• Mutations account for 15-50% of recessive
non-syndromic SNHL in US population
• Testing widely available ($300-$500)
• One mutation (35delG) accounts for 75-80%
of all mutations in Caucasians
• 35delG homozygotes typically have congenital
profound SNHL, but modifiers likely exist
• 3.01% carrier rate of 35delG in Iowa
population (Green et al. 1999)

Genetic testing for nonsyndromic
auditory neuropathy
• OTOF (otoferlin)
– 48 coding exons and splice sites; recessive
– $1500 through Partners- does not accept 3rd party
payment
• Pejvakin – reported in two families from Iran
• DIAPH3 (Schoen et al. 2010, PNAS)
– Autosomal dominant auditory neuropathy;
currently no lab offering clinical testing
BCN view of the world
• Does a definitive dx remain uncertain even after H&P
exam and conventional diagnostic studies?
• Does the patient display clinical features related to
the inherited mutation in question?
• What justifies the patient’s increased risk? i.e. family
history, ethnic background
• Is this disease treatable or preventable?
• Will the result of the test directly influence the tx
being delivered to the patient?
• Requires informed consent and genetic counseling
Deafness gene platforms
• OtoChip™- 19 assorted genes for deafness
including Usher, mitochondrial, $3800
• Otogenetics: 80+ genes, $488/sample
• OtoSCOPE: 60+ genes, $2000/sample
• Missing most “syndromic” genes such as:
– FGF3 : deafness, microtia, and microdontia (DFNB63)
– BSND: Bartter syndrome, DFNB73 (mild renal dysfunction)
– FGFR3: Muenke craniosynostosis; CATSHL (camptodactyly
and tall stature with HL)
Whole exome sequencing
• All coding exons and intron-exon junctions
• At least 2 samples/family to reduce number of
variants for follow-up
• Cross referencing to linkage region(s)
• Trending toward whole genome sequencing
(at some lower coverage)
– Unknown exons expressed specifically in the ear
– Splice mutations, distant enhancers/promoters
– Better sensitivity for deletions/duplications
Annotation
• dB SNP filter
– Includes deafness mutations such as 35delG
– Allow minor allele frequency <5%
• Exome variant server (U Washington) filter
• Up to 10,000 alleles
• Subjects not necessarily screened for deafness;
some reported deafness mutations seen
• Splice mutations may be called as non-synonomous
or synonomous variants
• Deafness mutations may occur in noncoding
sequence (5’UTR mutation in DIAPH3)
Interpretation
• Pooling samples reduces costs but may
sacrifice coverage of particular linkage region
• Failure to confirm on Sanger sequencing
• Easier to detect homozygous mutations
causing recessive disease
• Dominant requires analysis of every variant
and confirmation of segregation in the family
Most common non-genetic cause:
Human cytomegalovirus infection
•
•
•
•
HCMV affects 1.1/1000 live births
5% symptomatic; 30-65% incidence of SNHL
95% are asymptomatic; 8-15% incidence SNHL
Must detect in first 3 weeks of life; universal
screening of blood or saliva; newborn blood
spots have low sensitivity (JAMA 2010)
• Antibody testing may be able to exclude
HCMV as an etiology
The future is here!
• Identifying a genetic etiology
helps with prognosis and
recurrence risk
• Economies of scale will bring
the price down
• Developing a clinical algorithm
and drawing genotypephenotype correlations

Non-syndromic Sensorineural Hearing Loss:
Summary
• Recessive is usually congenital and profound; GJB2
(also pseudodominant)
• Dominant is usually delayed onset and progressive
– Low frequency WFS1
– Mid frequency “cookie-bite” TECTA (alpha-tectorin)
• Auditory neuropathy: OTOF, DIAPH3
• Otherwise, no predominant genes; some in single
families or yet unidentified
• Next generation sequencing technologies
Genotype cohorts provide some prognostic
information
