Frequency of GJB2 mutations in families with autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss in Khuzestan province

Abstract: Hearing loss is caused both by genetic and environmental factors. In this sense, more than half of the cases are genetic. Hereditary hearing loss is divided into syndromic and nonsyndromic cases. Main pattern of inheritance (80%) in non-syndromic cases is autosomal recessive, which is known as autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL). Although the disease is very genetically heterogeneous, the GJB2 gene has 838
