Mutations in non-muscle myosin IIa (Myh9), lead to nephrotic syndrome in association with deafness, macrothrombocytopenia, and leukocyte inclusions in several syndromes such as Fechtner and Epstein syndromes, which might collectively be termed “Myh9 related diseases” [13]–[15]. This evidence concerns the gene MYH9 and deafness.
