Abstract

Ciliopathies are an expanding group of rare conditions characterized by multiorgan involvement, that are caused by mutations in genes encoding for proteins of the primary cilium or its apparatus. Among these genes, CEP290 bears an intriguing allelic spectrum, being commonly mutated in Joubert syndrome and related disorders (JSRD), Meckel syndrome (MKS), Senior-Loken syndrome and isolated Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA). Although these conditions are recessively inherited, in a subset of patients only one CEP290 mutation could be detected. To assess whether genomic rearrangements involving the CEP290 gene could represent a possible mutational mechanism in these cases, exon dosage analysis on genomic DNA was performed in two groups of CEP290 heterozygous patients, including five JSRD/ MKS cases and four LCA, respectively. In one JSRD patient, we identified a large heterozygous deletion encompassing CEP290 C -terminus that resulted in marked reduction of mRNA expression. No copy number alterations were identified in the remaining probands. The present work expands the CEP290 genotypic spectrum to include multiexon deletions. Although this mechanism does not appear to be frequent, screening for genomic rearrangements should be considered in patients in whom a single CEP290 mutated allele was identified.

Abstract

We present the case of a patient with total colonic aganglionosis and small-bowel involvement (TCSA) associated with a 46, XX, del 10 (q11.21 q21.2) karyotype. Seromuscular biopsies were taken from the rectum, colon, cecum, and terminal ileum. The alpha-naphthylesterase technique was applied to demonstrate intestinal ganglia of the myenteric plexus. The patient did not have associated anomalies. The association of TCSA with 10 long-arm interstitial deletion has not been reported in the literature. Molecular studies in cases of TCSA might reveal whether chromosome 10 plays a role in the pathogenesis of the disease.

Abstract

Kabuki make-up (Niikawa-Kuroki) syndrome has been described mainly in Japanese patients. In this paper we report sixteen new cases from Europe and North America, suggesting that Kabuki make-up syndrome may be more common outside of Japan than supposed. Their features are compared with those of the Japanese patients and most of our findings are similar to those previously reported. The facial phenotype is specific and easily recognizable, regardless of ethnic origin. Postnatal growth retardation and mild mental retardation are confirmed to be cardinal manifestations of the syndrome. Skeletal anomalies were present in all cases but most of the radiological changes were non-specific. The specificity of metacarpophalangeal pattern profile is not confirmed. Conversely, dermatoglyphic analysis is helpful in the diagnosis of this condition. Two differences have emerged between the Japanese patients and those in this study. Firstly, two-thirds of the patients in this series had significant neurological dysfunction other than mental retardation. Secondly, joint hypermobility appears more common in non-Japanese patients. Confirmation of these findings requires further studies.

Abstract

Human ciliopathies are hereditary conditions caused by defects of proteins expressed at the primary cilium. Among ciliopathies, Joubert syndrome and related disorders (JSRD), Meckel syndrome (MKS) and nephronophthisis (NPH) present clinical and genetic overlap, being allelic at several loci. One of the most interesting gene is TMEM67, encoding the transmembrane protein meckelin. We performed mutation analysis of TMEM67 in 341 probands, including 265 JSRD representative of all clinical subgroups and 76 MKS fetuses. We identified 33 distinct mutations, of which 20 were novel, in 8/10 (80%) JS with liver involvement (COACH phenotype) and 12/76 (16%) MKS fetuses. No mutations were found in other JSRD subtypes, confirming the strong association between TMEM67 mutations and liver involvement. Literature review of all published TMEM67 mutated cases was performed to delineate genotype-phenotype correlates. In particular, comparison of the types of mutations and their distribution along the gene in lethal versus non lethal phenotypes showed in MKS patients a significant enrichment of missense mutations falling in TMEM67 exons 8 to 15, especially when in combination with a truncating mutation. These exons encode for a region of unknown function in the extracellular domain of meckelin.

Abstract

A girl with oral, facial, and digital anomalies presented at birth with a large cleft palate filled by a nasopharyngeal mass and was found later to have several vertebral anomalies and mental retardation. A similar phenotype has been previously reported in a sporadic male patient [Gabrielli et al., 1994: Am J Med Genet 53:290-293], suggesting a new variant form of oral-facial-digital syndrome.
