Association between poly-morphism of Ca2 + -ATPase isomer 2 gene in plasma membrane and sudden deafness / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the association between polymorphisms of Ca2 + -ATPase isomer 2 gene (PMCA2) in plasma membrane and the development of sudden deafness .Methods Totally ,164 patients were investigated and hearing tests were conducted .According to the results of audiometry ,they were divided into two groups ,sensorineural hearing loss group(n= 82) and normal hearing group(n= 82) .Polymorphisms of two single nucleotide loci rs2289274 and rs6790640 in the PMCA2 gene were de-termined by polymerase chain reaction followed by allele specific amplication analysis .Results In the sudden deafness group ,fre-quencies of genotypes AA ,AG and GG in the rs2289274 locus were 55 .8% ,17 .4% and 26 .8% respectively ,while frequencies of al-leles A and G in the same locus were 64 .5% and 35 .5% respectively ;in the sensorineural hearing loss group ,were 26 .8% ,28 .0%and 45 .2% respectively ,while frequencies of alleles A and G were 41 .1% and 58 .9% .And ,in the sudden deafness group ,frequen-cies of genotypes CC ,CT and TT in the rs2289274 locus were18 .3% ,35 .4% and 46 .3% respectively ,while frequencies of alleles C and T in the same locus were 36 .3% and 63 .7% ;in the normal hearing group ,were 2 .4% ,63 .4% and 34 .1% respectively ,while frequencies of alleles C and T were34 .1% and 65 .9% ,respectively .Genotypes distribution of two sites and their allele frequencies of the two groups ,some differences of them had statistical significance(P< 0 .05) .Conclusion It is suggested that genetic polymor-phism of the rs2289274 and rs6790640 loci in the PMCA2 gene might be a susceptible factor for sudden deafness .
