Val2Ala mutation in the Atp6v0a4 gene causes early-onset sensorineural hearing loss in children with recessive distal renal tubular acidosis: a case report

Abstract: A young female patient born to consanguineous parents was admitted to our clinic at the age of 3 years with a 5-month history of weight loss and recurrent urinary tract infections. Based on clinical findings (delayed growth and O-bein deformity) and laboratory tests (hypokalemia, hyperchloremia, partially compensated metabolic acidosis, alkaline urine and nephrocalsinosis), a diagnosis of distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) was made. Then, the audiogram revealed a bilateral sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). … Show more

“…She was not deaf at diagnosis, and her hearing remained normal during the follow-up, up to date. Thus, these findings support that the association with SNHL is not a good indicator of the underlying causal gene, corroborating previously reported data (22)(23)(24), arising the advantage of NGS approach instead of selected Sanger phenotype-genotype sequencing approach (Figure 1). It is interesting to note that patient 306 that presented early DRTA and was diagnosed at 2 mo of life was found to harbor only one variation in heterozygosis -R394Q-in the ATP6V1B1 gene.…”

“…In previous reports, ATP6V1B1 mutations were associated with early-onset hearing loss, whereas ATP6V0A4 mutations were associated with lateonset hearing loss [Karet, 2002;Stover et al, 2002]. However, recent studies indicate that early-onset hearing loss can also occur in ATP6V0A4 mutations [Vargas-Poussou et al, 2006;Batlle and Haque, 2012;Kose et al, 2014]. In our study, a patient with ATPV0A4 mutation had severe hearing loss that was noticed in the early stages of life (3 years old).…”

“…Cases bearing ATP6V1B1 mutations usually accompany with early sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), while ones caused by ATP6V0A4 mutations commonly comorbid with late-onset SNHL or normal hearing [4, 9]. But that’s not exactly true, some cases harboring ATP6V1B1 mutations without SNHL, and a few cases with ATP6V0A4 mutations with early-onset SNHL also have been described [10, 11]. In addition, in our previous report including six Chinese children patient with dRTA, we noticed that enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA), a special pathological change of inner ear, was almost concurrent with early onset SNHL regardless of mutations in ATP6V1B1 or in ATP6V0A4 [12].…”
