“…Of these, the A1555G mutation has been associated with both aminoglycoside antibiotic (AmAn)-induced deafness and nonsyndromic hearing loss (NSHL) in many families worldwide (Guan, 2005;Jacobs et al, 2005). Matrilineal relatives within and among families carrying the A1555G mutation exhibit a wide range of penetrance, severity, and age-of-onset in hearing loss (Malik et al, 2003;Young et al, 2005;Dai et al, 2006). Functional characterization of cell lines derived from matrilineal relatives of a large Arab-Israeli family or one large Chinese family demonstrated that the A1555G mutation caused mild mitochondrial dysfunction and more sensitivity to AmAn (Guan et al, 1996(Guan et al, , 2000.…”

“…In some pedigrees, most of the individuals carrying the A1555G mutation subsequently develop SNHL [27], but, in others, the penetrance may be extremely low [73,74]. These findings indicate that the A1555G mutation itself is not sufficient to produce a clinical phenotype but requires the involvement of modifier factors for the phenotypic expression.…”

“…To further investigate the molecular mechanism of maternally transmitted hearing loss, we have initiated a systematic and extended mutational screening of the 12S rRNA gene in several cohorts of hearing-impaired subjects (Li et al, 2004a;Li et al 2005b;Dai et al, 2006;Young et al, 2005;Zhao et al, 2005b;Tang et al, 2007). In the previous investigation, we showed the highly variable penetrance and expressivity of hearing loss in 36 Han Chinese families carrying the A1555G mutation (Li et al, 2004b;Young et al, 2005;Zhao et al, 2005b;Dai et al, 2005;Yuan et al, 2005;Tang et al 2007) and three Han Chinese pedigrees carrying the C1494T mutation (Zhao et al 2004;Wang et al, 2005, Han et al 2007).…”
