OBJECTIVE: Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) affects 66,000 patients per year in the United States. Genetic mutations have been associated with progressive hearing loss; however, genetic mutations associated with ISSNHL have not been identified.
METHODS: A prospective cohort study of adults older than 18 years presenting with ISSNHL at a tertiary academic medical center. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was conducted using Genome Analysis Toolkit best practices. An automated diagnostic screen employing a variety of models for pathogenicity was conducted across all genes with no specific targets. Candidate pathogenic variants were reviewed by a team of geneticists and clinicians. Variants were crossed-referenced with 92 known hearing loss associated genes.
RESULTS: Twenty-nine patients with SSNHL were screened using WES. The average age of patients was 53 ± 17.1 years, and most patients were White (62%) and men (55%). The mean pure tone average was 64.8 ± 31.3 dB for the affected ear. Using a 0.1% allele frequency screen, 12 (41%) cases had a mutation in any of the nine selected myosin genes. When we restrict to singletons (allele frequency = 0%), 21% (n = 6) of cases have qualifying variants, whereas only 3.8% (n = 481) of 12,577 healthy controls carry qualifying variants (p < 0.01). Most mutations (80%) were missense mutations. Of the novel mutations, one was a frameshift mutation, and two were a stop-gained function. Three were missense mutations.
CONCLUSION: Myosin mutations may be associated with ISSNHL. However, larger population screening is needed to confirm the association of myosin mutation with ISSNHL and steroid responsiveness.
