Project description:BackgroundGlucose-6-phosphate isomerase deficiency is a rare genetic disorder causing hereditary nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia. It is the second most common glycolytic enzymopathy in red blood cells. About 90 cases are reported worldwide, with symptoms including chronic hemolytic anemia, jaundice, splenomegaly, gallstones, cholecystitis, and in severe cases, neurological impairments, hydrops fetalis, and neonatal death.Case presentationThis paper details the case of the first Danish patient diagnosed with glucose-6-phosphate isomerase deficiency. The patient, a 27-year-old white female, suffered from lifelong anemia of unknown origin for decades. Diagnosis was established through whole-genome sequencing, which identified two GPI missense variants: the previously documented variant p.(Thr224Met) and a newly discovered variant p.(Tyr341Cys). The pathogenicity of these variants was verified enzymatically.ConclusionsWhole-genome sequencing stands as a potent tool for identifying hereditary anemias, ensuring optimal management strategies.

Project description:Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (GPI, EC 5.3.1.9) is a dimeric enzyme that catalyzes the reversible isomerization of glucose-6-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate, the second reaction step of glycolysis. GPI deficiency, transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait, is considered the second most common erythro-enzymopathy of anaerobic glycolysis, after pyruvate kinase deficiency. Despite this, this defect may sometimes be misdiagnosed and only about 60 cases of GPI deficiency have been reported. GPI deficient patients are affected by chronic non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia of variable severity; in rare cases, intellectual disability or neuromuscular symptoms have also been reported. The gene locus encoding GPI is located on chromosome 19q13.1 and contains 18 exons. So far, about 40 causative mutations have been identified. We report the clinical, hematological and molecular characteristics of 12 GPI deficient cases (eight males, four females) from 11 families, with a median age at admission of 13 years (ranging from 1 to 51); eight of them were of Italian origin. Patients displayed moderate to severe anemia, that improves with aging. Splenectomy does not always result in the amelioration of anemia but may be considered in transfusion-dependent patients to reduce transfusion intervals. None of the patients described here displayed neurological impairment attributable to the enzyme defect. We identified 13 different mutations in the GPI gene, six of them have never been described before; the new mutations affect highly conserved residues and were not detected in 1000 Genomes and HGMD databases and were considered pathogenic by several mutation algorithms. This is the largest series of GPI deficient patients so far reported in a single study. The study confirms the great heterogeneity of the molecular defect and provides new insights on clinical and molecular aspects of this disease.

Project description:Peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) is an enzyme that is involved in protein citrullination, and is a target for anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies (ACPAs) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Genetic polymorphisms in the PADI4 gene encoding PAD4 are associated with RA susceptibility. We herein analyzed the roles of PADI4 in inflammatory arthritis using a glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (GPI)-induced arthritis (GIA) model in Padi4 knockout (KO) mice. Arthritis severity, serum anti-GPI antibody titers, and IL-6 concentrations were significantly reduced in Padi4 KO mice. The frequency of Th17 cells was decreased in GPI-immunized Padi4 KO mice, whereas WT and Padi4-deficient naïve CD4(+) T cells displayed the same efficiencies for Th17 cell differentiation in vitro. In addition, the numbers of myeloid lineage cells were reduced with the increased expression of pro-apoptotic genes in GPI-immunized Padi4 KO mice. Furthermore, the survival of Padi4-deficient neutrophils was impaired in vitro. Our results suggest that PADI4 exacerbates arthritis with diverse immunological modifications.

Project description:Background and aimsGlucose phosphate isomerase (GPI) deficiency is an extremely rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the GPI gene. In this research, the proband displaying typical manifestations of haemolytic anaemia and his family members were recruited to analyse the pathogenicity of the detected variants.MethodsPeripheral blood samples were collected from the family members and genomic DNA was extracted and targeted for capture and sequencing. The effect of the candidate pathogenic variants on splicing was further investigated using the minigene splicing system. The computer simulation was also used for further analysis of the detected data.ResultsThe proband carried the compound heterozygous variants c.633 + 3 A > G and c.295G > T in the GPI gene, which have never been reported before. In the genealogy, co-segregation of the mutant genotype with the phenotype was established. The minigene study showed that intronic mutations resulted in abnormal pre-mRNA splicing. Specifically, the two aberrant transcripts: r.546_633del and r.633 + 1_633 + 2insGT were transcribed by the minigene plasmid expressing the c.633 + 3 A > G variant. The missense mutation c.295G > T in exon 3 resulted in altering glycine at codon 87 to cysteine which was predicted to be pathogenic in an in silico analysis. Deeper analyses revealed that the Gly87Cys missense mutation led to steric hindrance. Compared to the wild-type, the mutation G87C led to a significant increase in intermolecular forces.ConclusionOverall, the novel compound heterozygous variants in the GPI gene contributed to the etiology of the disease. Genetic testing can assist in the diagnosis. The novel gene variants identified in the present study has further expanded the mutational spectrum of GPI deficiency, which can better guide family counselling.

Project description:BackgroundGlucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is one of the most common human genetic abnormalities, with a high prevalence in Guangdong, China. The purpose of this study was to explore the characteristics of newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients with G6PD deficiency in a cohort of Chinese children and to investigate the relationship between the diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hemolysis due to G6PD deficiency in these patients.MethodsA total of 503 newly diagnosed T1D children aged 6 months-18 years were collected and their G6PD enzyme activity were measured. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and G6PD gene were analysed. The pH, HCO3, and plasma osmotic pressure between DKA patients with and without hemolysis at the presentation were compared.ResultsIn the present study, G6PD deficiency accounted for 5.3% of newly diagnosed T1D children. There were no significant differences in FPG/HbA1c and HbA1c levels between T1D children alone and T1D children with G6PD deficiency. Hemolysis appeared in five of the twenty-two DKA patients with G6PD deficiency. Two patients had fever at onset and were given ibuprofen and cefazolin. The other three patients did not have infection or ingestion of hemolytic drugs. There were no significant difference in pH, HCO3, and osmotic pressure between the children with DKA with and without hemolysis at the presentation. The hemolysis occurred between 2 and 7 days after admission and the hyperglycaemia had been corrected by the time hemolysis occurs. Four G6PD gene mutations were found in the diabetes with G6PD deficiency patients: c.1376G > T, c.1388G > A, c.95A > G, and c.871G > A, all of which were genes with high frequency of G6PD deficiency in Guangdong Province. No correlation between genotype and hemolysis was found.ConclusionIn the present study, we found the frequency of G6PD deficiency among newly diagnosed T1D children was similar to that of the general population. However, DKA children with G6PD deficiency are prone to occur hemolytic anemia, and these hemolysis usually occurs when DKA is corrected and blood glucose is in homeostatic state, which is easy to be ignored. To reduce the risk of this complication, especially in areas with high incidence of G6PD deficiency, screening for G6PD activity in people with newly diagnosed diabetes should be considered.

Project description:BackgroundGlucose phosphate isomerase (GPI) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that causes hereditary nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia (HNSHA). Homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation of the GPI gene on chromosome 19q13 is the cause of GPI deficiency. Fifty-seven GPI mutations have been reported at the molecular level.Case presentationA 5-month-old boy was presented with repeated episodes of jaundice after birth. He suffered from moderate hemolytic anemia (hemoglobin levels ranging from 62 to 91 g/L) associated with macrocytosis, reticulocytosis, neutropenia, and hyperbilirubinemia. Whole-exome sequencing showed that he has a missense mutation c.301G > A (p.Val101Met) in exon 4 and a frameshift mutation c.812delG (p.Gly271Glufs*131) in exon 10. Mutation p.Gly271Glufs*131 is a novel frameshift null mutation in GPI deficiency.ConclusionIn a patient with recurrent jaundice since birth, mutations in the GPI gene associated with HNSHA should be evaluated. The c.812delG (p.Gly271Glufs*131) variant may be a novel mutation of the GPI gene. Compound heterozygous mutations c.301G > A (p.Val101Met) and c.812delG (p.Gly271Glufs*131) are not relevant to neurological impairment.

Project description:Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a hereditary condition caused by mutations on chromosome X and is transmitted by a sex-linked inheritance. However, impairment of G6PD activity may result from biochemical mechanisms that are able to inhibit the enzyme in specific clinical conditions in the absence of a structural gene-level defect. In this narrative review, a number of clinical settings associated with an "acquired" G6PD deficiency, phenotypically undistinguishable from the primary deficiency, as well as the mechanisms involved, were examined. Hyperaldosteronism and diabetes are the most common culprits of acquired G6PD deficiency. Additional endocrine and metabolic conditions may cause G6PD deficiency in both hospitalized and outpatients. Contrary to the inherited defect, acquired G6PD deficiency is a condition that is potentially curable by removing the factor responsible for enzyme inhibition. Awareness regarding acquired G6PD deficiency by physicians might result in improved recognition and treatment.

Project description:RationaleMetabolic and structural remodeling is a hallmark of heart failure. This remodeling involves activation of the mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) signaling pathway, but little is known on how intermediary metabolites are integrated as metabolic signals.ObjectiveWe investigated the metabolic control of cardiac glycolysis and explored the potential of glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) to regulate glycolytic flux and mTOR activation.Methods and resultsWe developed a kinetic model of cardiomyocyte carbohydrate metabolism, CardioGlyco, to study the metabolic control of myocardial glycolysis and G6P levels. Metabolic control analysis revealed that G6P concentration is dependent on phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) activity. Next, we integrated ex vivo tracer studies with mathematical simulations to test how changes in glucose supply and glycolytic flux affect mTOR activation. Nutrient deprivation promoted a tight coupling between glucose uptake and oxidation, G6P reduction, and increased protein-protein interaction between hexokinase II and mTOR. We validated the in silico modeling in cultured adult mouse ventricular cardiomyocytes by modulating PGI activity using erythrose 4-phosphate. Inhibition of glycolytic flux at the level of PGI caused G6P accumulation, which correlated with increased mTOR activation. Using click chemistry, we labeled newly synthesized proteins and confirmed that inhibition of PGI increases protein synthesis.ConclusionsThe reduction of PGI activity directly affects myocyte growth by regulating mTOR activation.
