Exome sequencing identifies a novel CEACAM16 mutation associated with autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss DFNA4B in a Chinese family

Abstract: Autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss (ADNSHL/DFNA) is a highly genetically heterogeneous disorder. Hitherto only about 30 ADNSHL-causing genes have been identified and many unknown genes remain to be discovered. In this research, genome-wide linkage analysis mapped the disease locus to a 4.3 Mb region on chromosome 19q13 in SY-026, a five-generation nonconsanguineous Chinese family affected by late-onset and progressive ADNSHL. This linkage region showed partial overlap with the previously reported DFN… Show more

“…The phenotypes of the 2 previously described patients with CEACAM16 variants compare well with our presented patient. The American and Chinese families are both described having binaural autosomal dominant nonsyndromic sensorineural hearing loss with an onset in the second decade of life [Zheng et al, 2011;Wang et al, 2015]. There were 2 slight differences in these families compared to our proband.…”

“…The audiograms currently available demonstrate stable hearing loss that will be monitored for similar progression in adulthood. Secondly, the hearing loss in the Chinese family appears in the higher frequencies, whereas the audiogram profile for our proband is flat except for 0.125 kHz [Wang et al, 2015]. A unique feature of our proband was that he exhibited noise sensitivity before the onset of his hearing loss.…”
