Genes That Influence Susceptibility to Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Springer Handbook of Auditory Research ((SHAR,volume 40))

Abstract

The ability to detect sound is a genetic trait essential for survival and subject to evolutionary selection. With industrial operations and the use of power tools and equipment, noise impinges on many aspects of our daily life and we are subject to frequent bouts of excessive noise. Although exposure to less intense noise can lead to temporary loss of auditory response, the cumulative effect of such noise exposures over time may also cause permanent hearing loss.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Based on the guidelines for human and mouse genome nomenclature, human gene symbols are in uppercase, while mouse gene symbols are italicized and use an initial capital letter, followed by lowercase letters. For instance, symbols for the human and mouse genes encoding cadherin 23 protein are CDH23 and Cdh23, respectively. Protein abbreviations are in uppercase.
