Conclusion:Our results suggest that high expression of the IFN-?gene may be associated with susceptibility to the disease.Consequently, IFN-? may be a useful marker of the etiopathogenesisof congenital sensorineural hearing loss.

Abstract

Objective:We assessed the association between the polymorphismsand expressions of three cytokine genes and clinical parameters inchildren who underwent cochlear implantation due to profound congenital sensorineural hearing loss. Methods:We analyzed the IL-6/-174, IFN-?/+874 and TNF-?/308 genes in 64 cases with congenital sensorineural hearing loss andin 70 healthy controls. Cytokine genotyping/expression was performed using the PCR-SSP method. Results: No significant differences were detected between the patientgroup and the healthy controls with respect to the distributions andnumbers of genotypes and alleles of TNF-? or IL-6. However, theTT genotype, associated with high expression of IFN-?, and the Tallele frequency were significantly more frequent in the patient groupversus the controls (p=0.016 and 0.023, respectively). Conclusion:Our results suggest that high expression of the IFN-?gene may be associated with susceptibility to the disease.Consequently, IFN-? may be a useful marker of the etiopathogenesisof congenital sensorineural hearing loss.

Özet

Amaç: Çalıflmamızda polimorfizmler, üç adet sitokin geni ekspresyonu ve konjenital sensorinöral iflitme kaybı tedavisi için koklear implantasyon uygulanmıfl çocukların klinik parametreleri arasındaki iliflkiyi inceledik. Yöntem:IL-6/-174, IFN-?/+874 ve TNF-?/-308 genleri, 64 konjenital sensorinöral iflitme kaybı hastasında ve 70 sağlıklı kontrol olgusunda analiz edildi. Sitokin ekspresyonu PCR-SSP yöntemi ile gerçeklefltirilmifltir. Bulgular:Hasta grubu ve sağlıklı kontrol grubu arasında TNF-? veya IL-6'nın genotipleri ve allel frekansları sayısı ve dağılımı bakımından belirgin bir farklılık saptanmadı. Ancak yüksek IFN-? ekspresyonu ile iliflkilendirilen TT genotipi ve T allel frekansı, hasta grubunda kontrol grubuna göre daha sıklıkla gözlendi (sırasıyla p=0.016 vep=0.023). Sonuç:Sonuçlarımız yüksek oranda IFN-? geni ekspresyonunun hastalığa olan duyarlılığı arttırdığını göstermifltir. Bunu takiben IFN-?geninin konjenital iflitme kaybının etyopatogenezinde yararlı bir belirteç olabileceği sonucu ortaya çıkmıfltır.
