Abstract

Contains fulltext : 167711.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) IMPORTANCE: The 16p11.2 BP4-BP5 duplication is the copy number variant most frequently associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), schizophrenia, and comorbidities such as decreased body mass index (BMI). OBJECTIVES: To characterize the effects of the 16p11.2 duplication on cognitive, behavioral, medical, and anthropometric traits and to understand the specificity of these effects by systematically comparing results in duplication carriers and reciprocal deletion carriers, who are also at risk for ASD. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This international cohort study of 1006 study participants compared 270 duplication carriers with their 102 intrafamilial control individuals, 390 reciprocal deletion carriers, and 244 deletion controls from European and North American cohorts. Data were collected from August 1, 2010, to May 31, 2015 and analyzed from January 1 to August 14, 2015. Linear mixed models were used to estimate the effect of the duplication and deletion on clinical traits by comparison with noncarrier relatives. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Findings on the Full-Scale IQ (FSIQ), Nonverbal IQ, and Verbal IQ; the presence of ASD or other DSM-IV diagnoses; BMI; head circumference; and medical data. RESULTS: Among the 1006 study participants, the duplication was associated with a mean FSIQ score that was lower by 26.3 points between proband carriers and noncarrier relatives and a lower mean FSIQ score (16.2-11.4 points) in nonproband carriers. The mean overall effect of the deletion was similar (-22.1 points; P < .001). However, broad variation in FSIQ was found, with a 19.4- and 2.0-fold increase in the proportion of FSIQ scores that were very low (100) compared with the deletion group (P < .001). Parental FSIQ predicted part of this variation (approximately 36.0% in hereditary probands). Although the frequency of ASD was similar in deletion and duplication proband carriers (16.0% and 20.0%, respectively), the FSIQ was significantly lower (by 26.3 points) in the duplication probands with ASD. There also were lower head circumference and BMI measurements among duplication carriers, which is consistent with the findings of previous studies. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: The mean effect of the duplication on cognition is similar to that of the reciprocal deletion, but the variance in the duplication is significantly higher, with severe and mild subgroups not observed with the deletion. These results suggest that additional genetic and familial factors contribute to this variability. Additional studies will be necessary to characterize the predictors of cognitive deficits.

Abstract

To access publisher full text version of this article. Please click on the hyperlink in Additional Links field. Both obesity and being underweight have been associated with increased mortality. Underweight, defined as a body mass index (BMI) ≤ 18.5 kg per m(2) in adults and ≤ -2 standard deviations from the mean in children, is the main sign of a series of heterogeneous clinical conditions including failure to thrive, feeding and eating disorder and/or anorexia nervosa. In contrast to obesity, few genetic variants underlying these clinical conditions have been reported. We previously showed that hemizygosity of a ∼600-kilobase (kb) region on the short arm of chromosome 16 causes a highly penetrant form of obesity that is often associated with hyperphagia and intellectual disabilities. Here we show that the corresponding reciprocal duplication is associated with being underweight. We identified 138 duplication carriers (including 132 novel cases and 108 unrelated carriers) from individuals clinically referred for developmental or intellectual disabilities (DD/ID) or psychiatric disorders, or recruited from population-based cohorts. These carriers show significantly reduced postnatal weight and BMI. Half of the boys younger than five years are underweight with a probable diagnosis of failure to thrive, whereas adult duplication carriers have an 8.3-fold increased risk of being clinically underweight. We observe a trend towards increased severity in males, as well as a depletion of male carriers among non-medically ascertained cases. These features are associated with an unusually high frequency of selective and restrictive eating behaviours and a significant reduction in head circumference. Each of the observed phenotypes is the converse of one reported in carriers of deletions at this locus. The phenotypes correlate with changes in transcript levels for genes mapping within the duplication but not in flanking regions. The reciprocal impact of these 16p11.2 copy-number variants indicates that severe obesity and being underweight could have mirror aetiologies, possibly through contrasting effects on energy balance.

Abstract

Background: Somatic and germline genetic alterations are significant drivers of cancer. Increasing integration of new technologies which profile these alterations requires timely, equitable and high-quality genetic counselling to facilitate accurate diagnoses and informed decision-making by patients and their families in preventive and clinical settings. This article aims to provide an overview of genetic counselling legislation and practice across European Union (EU) Member States to serve as a foundation for future European recommendations and action., Methods: National legislative databases of all 27 Member States were searched using terms relevant to genetic counselling, translated as appropriate. Interviews with relevant experts from each Member State were conducted to validate legislative search results and provide detailed insights into genetic counselling practice in each country., Results: Genetic counselling is included in national legislative documents of 22 of 27 Member States, with substantial variation in legal mechanisms and prescribed details (i.e. the 'who, what, when and where' of counselling). Practice is similarly varied. Workforce capacity (25 of 27 Member States) and genetic literacy (all Member States) were common reported barriers. Recognition and/or better integration of genetic counsellors and updated legislation and were most commonly noted as the 'most important change' which would improve practice., Conclusions: This review highlights substantial variability in genetic counselling across EU Member States, as well as common barriers notwithstanding this variation. Future recommendations and action should focus on addressing literacy and capacity challenges through legislative, regulatory and/or strategic approaches at EU, national, regional and/or local levels., (© The Author(s) 2024.

Abstract

The Wnt signalling pathway is a critical regulator of bone mass and quality. Several heterozygous mutations in the LRP5 gene, a Wnt co-receptor, causing high bone mass (LRP5-HBM) have been described to date. The pathogenic mechanism is thought to be a gain-of-function caused by impaired inhibition of the canonical Wnt signalling pathway, thereby leading to increased bone formation. We report the cases of two affected family members, a 53-year-old mother and her 23-year-old daughter, with high bone mass (T-scores mother: lumbar spine 11.4, femoral neck 10.5; T-scores daughter: lumbar spine 5.4, femoral neck 8.7), increased calvarial thickness, and thickened cortices of the long bones but no history of fractures. Whereas the mother did not show any indications of the mutation, the daughter suffered from congenital hearing impairment resulting in cochlear implantation, recurrent facial palsy, and migraine. In addition, she had stenosis of the foramen magnum. In both individuals, we detected a novel heterozygous duplication of six basepairs in the LRP5 gene, resulting in an insertion of two amino acids, very likely associated with a gain-of-function. When the daughter had part of the occipital bone surgically removed, the bone sample was used for the visualization of bone lamellar structure and bone cells as well as the measurement of bone mineralization density distribution (BMDD). The bone sample revealed two distinctly different regions: an intra-cortical region with osteonal remodeling, typical osteonal lamellar orientation, associated with relatively higher heterogeneity of bone matrix mineralization, and another periosteal region devoid of bone remodeling, with parallel bone lamellae and lower heterogeneity of mineralization. In conclusion, we present data on bone tissue and material level from an LRP5-HBM patient with a novel mutation in the LRP5 gene. Our findings indicate normal morphology of osteoclasts and osteoblasts as well as normal mineralization in skull bone in LRP5-HBM., (Copyright © 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)

Abstract

Autism or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a range of neurodevelopmental disorders starting in early childhood and is characterized by impairments in communication and reciprocal social interaction and presence of restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior. The contribution of genetic factors to autism is clear in twin and family studies. It is apparent that, overall, ASD is a complex non-Mendelian disorder. Recent studies suggest that copy number variations (CNVs) play a significant role in the etiology of ASD. For the current work, we recruited 245 family members from 73 ASD families from Styria, Austria. The DNA from probands was genotyped with Affymetrix single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) 6.0 microarrays to screen for CNVs in their genomes. Analysis of the microarray data was performed using three different algorithms, and a list of stringent calls was compared to existing CNV data from over 2,357 controls of European ancestry. For stringent calls not present in controls, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to validate the CNVs in the probands and in their family members. Twenty-two CNVs were validated from this set (five of which are apparently de novo), many of which appear likely to disrupt genes that may be considered as good candidates for neuropsychiatric disorders, including DLG2, S100B, ARX, DIP2A, HPCAL1, and GPHN. Several others disrupt genes that have previously been implicated in autism, such as BDNF, AUTS2, DPP6, and C18orf22, and our data add to the growing evidence of their involvement in ASD.

Abstract

Objective: Disruption to endochondral ossification leads to delayed and irregular bone formation and can result in a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders known as osteochondrodysplasias. These genetic disorders arise through disturbances in the complex processes of skeletal growth causing development of unsightly skeletal deformities. METHODS : Each syndrome was diagnosed on the basis of detailed clinical and radiographic assessment. Lower limb deformities were the prime presenting feature., Results: Here are presented three patients with diverse genetic syndromes, namely Wolcott-Rallison syndrome (WRS), Kniest dysplasia (KD) and Desbuquois dysplasia (DS). Genetic testing was performed in the patients with WRS and DS. The diagnosis of KD was made purely on a clinical and radiographic basis. Variable orthopaedic interventions to realign these patients' lower limbs were implemented with the aim of improving their balance and gait., Conclusions: The aim of this paper is twofold. The first part is to outline the importance of diagnosing the causes of various skeletal abnormalities in patients with osteochondrodysplasias by phenotypic and genotypic characterization. The second part is to demonstrate our techniques for surgical corrections in patients with joint laxity and malalignment and show how far techniques for growth modulation, re-alignment and ligament reconstruction have advanced., (© 2013 Chinese Orthopaedic Association and Wiley Publishing Asia Pty Ltd.)

Abstract

Both obesity and being underweight have been associated with increased mortality. Underweight, defined as a body mass index (BMI) ≤ 18.5 kg per m(2) in adults and ≤ -2 standard deviations from the mean in children, is the main sign of a series of heterogeneous clinical conditions including failure to thrive, feeding and eating disorder and/or anorexia nervosa. In contrast to obesity, few genetic variants underlying these clinical conditions have been reported. We previously showed that hemizygosity of a ∼600-kilobase (kb) region on the short arm of chromosome 16 causes a highly penetrant form of obesity that is often associated with hyperphagia and intellectual disabilities. Here we show that the corresponding reciprocal duplication is associated with being underweight. We identified 138 duplication carriers (including 132 novel cases and 108 unrelated carriers) from individuals clinically referred for developmental or intellectual disabilities (DD/ID) or psychiatric disorders, or recruited from population-based cohorts. These carriers show significantly reduced postnatal weight and BMI. Half of the boys younger than five years are underweight with a probable diagnosis of failure to thrive, whereas adult duplication carriers have an 8.3-fold increased risk of being clinically underweight. We observe a trend towards increased severity in males, as well as a depletion of male carriers among non-medically ascertained cases. These features are associated with an unusually high frequency of selective and restrictive eating behaviours and a significant reduction in head circumference. Each of the observed phenotypes is the converse of one reported in carriers of deletions at this locus. The phenotypes correlate with changes in transcript levels for genes mapping within the duplication but not in flanking regions. The reciprocal impact of these 16p11.2 copy-number variants indicates that severe obesity and being underweight could have mirror aetiologies, possibly through contrasting effects on energy balance.

Abstract

A 4-year-old girl, the child of nonconsanguineous parents was referred for clinical assessment because of postaxial limb defects associated with mild facial dysmorphism. The overall phenotypic features were compatible with the Miller syndrome. The proband manifested distinctive bone defects, consisting of triangular-shaped terminal phalanges and cone-shaped epiphyses of the middle phalanges of the feet. Using the sequence analysis of the DHODH gene we identified compound heterozygous mutations in the proband. Furthermore, both the parents were found to be heterozygous carriers of one of the two mutations found in the proband. Interestingly, the father had a history of postaxial polydactyly. We speculated that the postaxial polydactyly in the father was either a heterozygote manifestation or is unrelated.

Abstract

DNA copy number alterations in 15q24 have repeatedly been reported in patients exhibiting mild to moderate developmental delay and dysmorphic features. To date, mainly microdeletions have been described, and comparison of overlapping regions allowed the definition of minimal critical regions (MCRs) for microdeletions as well as microduplications. These MCRs are associated with distinct phenotypes. Recently, a family with a new microduplication distal to these MCRs was reported. However, for this alteration the typical phenotypical consequences could not yet be determined. Here we present another family with a nearly identical microduplication exhibiting a broad clinical spectrum including developmental delay, autistic traits and dysmorphic features. Our data suggest that microduplications adjacent and distal to the known MCRs are variable in expressivity and are associated with distinct features. They might represent a novel and recurrent microduplication syndrome., (© 2010 Wiley-Liss, Inc.)

Abstract

Rett syndrome (RTT) is a common X-linked neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in the coding region of methyl-CpG-binding 2 (MECP2) gene. Patients with RTT have a low bone mineral density and increased risk of fracture. However, very little is known if bone matrix mineralization is altered in RTT. A 17-year-old girl with a classical form of RTT with a heterozygous nonsense mutation in exon 3 in the MECP2-gene was treated in our hospital. Her femoral neck BMD is 43.3% below the 3rd percentile when compared to age and sex-matched controls. She underwent surgery for correction of her scoliosis, which provided a unique opportunity to obtain bone tissue to study bone matrix mineralization (Bone Mineralization Density Distribution-BMDD) using quantitative backscattered electron imaging (qBEI) and histomorphometry. BMDD outcomes were compared to recently published normative reference data for young individuals. qBEI analysis showed a significant shift to lower matrix mineralization despite histomorphometric indices indicate a low bone turnover. There was a reduction in CaMean (-7.92%) and CaPeak (-3.97%), which describe the degree of mineralization. Furthermore the fraction of low mineralized matrix (CaLow: +261.84%) was dramatically increased, which was accompanied with an increase in the heterogeneity of mineralization (CaWidth: +86.34%). Our findings show a significantly altered bone matrix mineralization of a typical patient with RTT. This may partly explain the low bone density seen in these patients. These results also warrant further studies on the molecular role of MECP2 in bone matrix mineralization., (Copyright 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)

Abstract

Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) overexpression has been identified as a causative factor for tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) characterized by hypophosphatemia due to increased renal phosphate wasting, low 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) serum levels, and low bone density. The effects of long-lasting disturbed phosphate homeostasis on bone mineralization are still not well understood. We report on a patient with a 12-year history of TIO, treated with 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) and phosphate, who finally developed hyperparathyroidism with gland hyperplasia before the tumor could be localized in the scapula and removed. During surgery a transiliac bone biopsy was obtained. FGF23 expression in the tumor cells was confirmed by in situ hybridization. Serum FGF23 levels as measured by ELISA were found to be extremely elevated before and decreased after removal of the tumor. Bone histology/histomorphometry and measurement of bone mineralization density distribution using quantitative backscattered electron imaging were performed on the bone biopsy. The data showed important surface osteoidosis and a slightly increased osteoblast but markedly decreased osteoclast number. The mineralized bone volume (-11%) and mineralized trabecular thickness (-18%) were low. The mean degree of mineralization of the bone matrix (-7%), the most frequent calcium concentration (-4.1%), and the amounts of fully mineralized bone (-40.3%) were distinctly decreased, while the heterogeneity of mineralization (+44.5%) and the areas of primary mineralization (+131.6%) were dramatically increased. We suggest that the elevated levels of FGF23 and/or low phosphate concentrations disturb the mineralization kinetics in vivo without affecting matrix mineralization of pre-existing bone packets.

Abstract

Background: X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most prevalent heritable form of rickets. It is a dominantly inherited disorder, characterized by renal phosphate wasting, abnormal vitamin D and PTH metabolism, and defective bone mineralization. Inactivating mutations in the gene encoding PHEX (phosphate-regulating gene with homologies to endopeptidases on the X chromosome) have been found to be associated with XLH., Methods: We report about a 54-year-old male patient who exhibited the typical features of XLH, and in whom mutational analysis using PCR and sequencing was performed. Additionally, extensive laboratory and radiological investigations were carried out., Results: A 1-bp deletion in exon 2 of the PHEX gene was detected (177delC), which, to the best of our knowledge, has not been reported yet. This deletion results in a premature stop codon (C59X), suggesting a truncation of the PHEX protein. Furthermore, elevated FGF23 and PTH levels as well as an increased axial bone mineral density score were measured., Conclusions: We present a male patient with XLH, who harbors a novel mutation in the PHEX gene, which might be the cause for his disease. Our data support previous findings and therefore contribute to the decipherment of the pathogenetic pathways of XLH., (Copyright 2007 S. Karger AG, Basel.)
