摘 要:To the Editor:Hearing loss is the most common sensory disorder in *** is one case of congenital deafness among every 1000 newborns,and in 50%of cases,the deafness is *** exhibits high genetic *** date,over 110 non-syndromic deafness genes have been identified(https://***/).Lots of those genes can cause both autosomaldominant hearing loss(ADNSHL)and autosomal-recessive non-syndromic hearing loss(ARNSHL)andTMC1(encoding the transmembrane channel-like 1)is one of ***1(OMIM:606706)is a member of the TMC family located at *** protein contains 760 amino acids and has six transmembrane ***1 is expressed in the inner and outer hair cells of the cochlea.A TMC1 mutation was first shown to cause deafness in 2002.[1]The prevalence of TMC1 variants ranged from 3.4%(19/557)among Pakistani ARNSHL families to 8.1%(7/86)in Turkish *** date,around 20 hearing loss families associated withTMC1 variants have been reported in China.
