SOD2 V16A SNP in the Mitochondrial Targeting Sequence is Associated with Noise Induced Hearing Loss in Chinese Workers

Abstract: Objective: To investigate whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the Mn-superoxide dismutase gene (SOD2) underlie the susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). Methods: Audiometric data from 2400 Chinese Han workers who exposed to occupational noise were analyzed. DNA samples were collected from the 10% most susceptible and the 10% most resistant individuals, and five SNPs (SOD2 rs2842980, rs5746136, rs2758331, rs4880 and rs5746092) were genotyped by Taqman SNP Genotyping Kits. The SNP ma… Show more

“…51 ). Notably, allelic variations in SOD2, CAT, and PON2 have been associated with hearing loss from noise in industrial workers in candidate gene studies 5254 . Genetic studies of late-onset hearing loss in humans is complicated by the interplay between human genetic diversity and the many decades of experience that characterize the human lifespan.…”

“…In fact, the workers with GST null genotypes had previously been shown to be more sensitive to noise-induced TTS during a daily shift [93]. Polymorphisms in superoxide dismutase (SOD)2 likewise appeared to influence responses to noise in a Taiwanese population [94], and single nucleotide polymorphisms in SODs were associated with NIHL in Chinese workers [95]. Additionally, polymorphisms of HSP 70 enhanced susceptibility to NIHL [96].…”
