“…It has been shown that in mice and humans, loss or point mutations within the MVI gene ( MYO6 ) lead to deafness as well as mild defects in several organs, including the brain, heart, kidney, intestines, testis, and skeletal muscles ( Avraham et al, 1997 ; Osterweil et al, 2005 ; Mohhidin et al, 2004 ; Hegan et al, 2015 ; Karatsai et al, 2023 ; Gotoh et al, 2010 ; Ameen and Apodaca 2007 ; Zakrzewski et al, 2021 ; Lehka et al, 2022 ).
