Hereditary and Congenital
Hearing Loss
intRoduction
Genetics has emerged as an important topic in the field of audiology today. It is particularly valuable for the audiolo­gist and health care professional to have a fundamental knowledge of genetics when discussing disorders of the auditory sys­tem due to the fact that many conditions have strong genetic associations. Although the purpose of this book is not to provide the reader with a comprehensive coverage of the genetic disorders that can result in hearing loss, we felt that we could not write a book on auditory disorders with­out dedicating some time to a review of basic genetic principles and disorders. It is beyond the scope of this book to discuss these topics in great depth; however, we provide the reader with some of the more critical concepts associated with genetics, along with a brief overview of the more common genetically based auditory dis­orders. For those interested in learning more about these topics, the following resources are recommended:

The typical human being has 23 pairs of chromosomes, including 22 pairs of auto­somes and a pair of sex chromosomes (i.e., XX in females and XY in males).

These chromosomes contain genetic material composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that is arranged on chromo­somes in units called genes. DNA is inher­ited from one’s parents and is composed of four chemical bases or nucleotides. A nucleotide is a molecule that consists of a nitrogen-containing base (adenine, guanine, thymine, or cytosine in DNA and adenine, guanine, uracil, or cytosine in RNA), a phosphate group, and a sugar (deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA). These nucleotides are strung together in sequences on strands. There are two strands of DNA nucleotides that bond together to form a double helix. The bond between these two strands is created by the pairing of adenine with thymine and guanine with cytosine.
Genes are composed of sequences of DNA that contain the “genetic instruc­tions” for creating proteins. There are two copies of each gene, called alleles, with one allele located on each member of the chromosome pair. The genes carry the data (i.e., the DNA sequences) needed to make the various proteins that play important roles in the growth and development of the various structures and characteristics of the human body. This is accomplished via the processes of transcription and translation. Transcription is the process by which a complementary ribonucleic acid (RNA) copy of a DNA sequence is created (commonly referred to as mes­senger RNA or mRNA). This differs from translation, where short strands of trans­fer RNA (tRNA) nucleotides (carrying amino acids) pair with the corresponding mRNA bases that have traveled from the cell nucleus to the cell’s cytoplasm. The end result of these processes is the decod­ing of the genetic code and the assem­blage of a protein with a specific amino acid sequence. There are several hundred
of these proteins that result from these processes that are essential for the normal formation and functioning of the auditory system.
Changes may occur in the DNA material of the genes (called mutations) for a variety of reasons. If such changes occur, they may result in alterations in the end products of the genes (i.e., their proteins). In turn, abnormalities in the specific human growth or development processes in which these proteins are involved are likely to occur. Several types of gene mutations can occur, including nucleotide substitutions, deletions, and insertions. A comprehensive discussion of gene mutations is beyond the scope of this chapter. The reader interested in addi­tional information on gene mutations is encouraged to access the resources listed previously as well as a basic text address­ing the principles of genetics (e.g., Lewis, 2018; Read & Donnai, 2015).
The inheritance of a disorder can be caused by a single gene mutation or by more than one gene mutation, as in the case of digenic inheritance or modifier genes. There are two types of inheritance patterns: monogenic inheritance (includes Mendelian inheritance) and complex or multifactorial inheritance. When discuss­ing monogenic inheritance patterns related to hereditary hearing loss, there are three patterns of inheritance that are commonly discussed: (1) autosomal recessive, (2) autosomal dominant, and (3) X-linked. The location of the gene (i.e., on either an autosome or the sex-linked X chromosome) and the number of mutated alleles (one or two) will determine the exact pattern of inheritance.
An important concept when one is discussing monogenic inheritance pat­terns is that of zygosity, which refers to the similarity of the gene’s two alleles. If the

two alleles of a single gene are identical, they are said to be homozygous, whereas if one of the alleles is a wild-type (or nor­mal) allele and the other is mutated, they are referred to as being heterozygous. If both alleles of a gene are affected but by different mutations, then the term com­pound heterozygous is used. The term hemizygous is used to refer to the condi­tion where only one allele is present, as would be the case in sex-linked genes where only one X chromosome is inher­ited (e.g., XY).
An additional monogenic inheritance pattern sometimes seen in families with hearing loss is the mitochondrial inheri­tance pattern. This inheritance pattern is not as common as the other inheritance patterns. It is unique in that the inherited trait or characteristic can only be passed by a mother to her child through her mito­chondrial DNA (mtDNA).
When an individual is seen for genetic evaluation, a geneticist or genetic counselor will draw a pictorial representa­tion of the family called a pedigree, which includes the history of the family and the occurrence of a specific disorder or syn­drome within the family. The individual who first brought the disorder or syn­drome to medical attention is called the proband, and this individual is typically indicated in the pedigree by the presence of an arrow. The various symbols used in drawing a pedigree are shown in Fig­ure 9–1, and these will be used in the pedi­grees included in this chapter.
ual to have the disorder or syndrome. If both parents have an autosomal recessive disorder, then the offspring will inevitably inherit the disorder as the offspring will receive a mutated allele from each parent. However, if both parents are heterozygotes (i.e., they each have one mutated allele and one nonmutated or wild-type allele), the offspring may or may not inherit the disorder depending on the specific allele received from each parent as depicted in Figure 9–2. In the latter scenario, neither parent will manifest the disorder or condi­tion, but both will be carriers of the trait that then can be passed down to their off­spring. In such a situation, each parent has a 50% chance of passing a mutated allele to their offspring, and as such, there is a 25% chance of having an offspring with the disorder or syndrome, a 50% chance of having an offspring who does not have the disorder or condition but who would be a carrier (i.e., the offspring would have one mutated allele), and a 25% chance of having an offspring who would neither be a carrier nor have the disorder or syn­drome. The same probability exists for every pregnancy and does not change as the number of pregnancies increases. Consanguinity (i.e., parents related by descent) significantly increases the chance that two parents will be carriers for the same mutated recessive gene that they inherited from their common ancestors. Figure 9–3 shows an example of a pedigree that might be observed when there is an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern.

In the autosomal recessive inheritance pattern, both autosomal gene alleles must have a mutation in order for the individ-
Autosomal Dominant Inheritance Pattern
In the autosomal dominant inheritance pattern, the inheritance of one mutated allele is sufficient to cause a disorder or

syndrome (Figure 9–4). With every preg­nancy, there is a 50% chance for a parent with a specific disorder or condition to pass the mutated allele to his or her off­spring. If the mutated allele is passed to the offspring, he or she will have the same condition or syndrome as the affected par­ent. Here, unlike in the case of autosomal recessive inheritance, many individuals in different generations of the family may have the disorder or syndrome; however, the severity and the age of onset of the condition may vary among these individ­uals. This phenomenon is called variable expression and refers to the range in phe-
notype
that a particular genotype might cause (Welch, 2006). A phenotype is the clinical presentation or observable char­acteristics that result from the expression of a particular genotype (i.e., the consti­tution of a set of alleles present at one or more sites). For example, the same gene mutation may result in varying degrees of hearing loss within a family, with some individuals having profound hearing loss while others experience milder forms of hearing loss. Another phenomenon that can be associated with autosomal domi­nant inheritance patterns is reduced pen­etrance. This refers to the likelihood that a

particular genotype will be expressed as a phenotype less than 100% of the time. For example, if 75% of individuals with a par­ticular mutation are deaf and the remain­der have normal hearing, this mutation is said to have reduced penetrance. Fig­ure
9–5 provides an example of a pedigree that might be observed when there is an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern.
X-Linked Inheritance Pattern
The X-linked inheritance pattern refers to the mode of transmission of genes on the X chromosome. This is a unique inheri­tance pattern as females have two X chro­mosomes (XX), whereas males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY), and most of the X chromosome genes do not have cor­responding alleles on the Y chromosome. As a result, if a male has a mutation in a gene on the X chromosome, he will have the condition or disorder associated with that mutation because he only has the
one mutated allele. Females, on the other hand, will not typically have the condi­tion or disorder because they have one mutated allele and one wild-type allele. Figure 9–6 shows the inheritance pattern for a recessive X-linked disorder with a maternal carrier. In this inheritance pat­tern, there is a 25% chance that the couple will have a male offspring with the dis­order or syndrome, a 25% chance that the offspring will be an unaffected male, a 25% chance that the offspring will be an unaffected female, and a 25% chance that the offspring will be an unaffected female who is a carrier for the condition. Figure 9–7 depicts a representative pedi­gree for a family with this type of X-linked recessive trait. The previous discussion addresses the mode of inheritance with a maternal carrier; however, an X-linked recessive disorder or condition can also be inherited paternally. If a male with the disorder or condition mates with a female with two wild-type (normal) alleles, then none of the male offspring will be affected,

but all of the females will be carriers who may or may not show milder manifesta­tions of the disorder.
Mitochondrial Inheritance
Although most of the DNA in humans is located in the nucleus, a small amount is located in the energy producing organ­elles called mitochondria. Humans obtain their mitochondrial DNA from their mothers due to the fact that egg cells con­tain mitochondria and sperm cells do not.
Hence, any mutations in the mtDNA are passed from the mother to all of her chil­dren, both males and females. Figure 9–8 provides an example of a pedigree that might be observed when there is a mito­chondrial inheritance pattern.
Multifactorial Traits
For many disorders and conditions that result in hearing loss, the cause can be multifactorial (i.e., there can be an intri­cate interaction between genes and the
