DIS3L2 Gene Mutation Causes the Perlman Syndrome of Overgrowth and Wilms Tumor Susceptibility.

ABSTRACT: The deletion of the DIS3L2 gene causes the extremely uncommon congenital overgrowth syndrome, known as Perlman syndrome, which is autosomal recessive. Polyhydramnios, macrosomia, facial dysmorphism, renal dysplasia, and several congenital abnormalities with Wilms tumor propensity are its defining features. Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), prune belly syndrome (PBS), and Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome (SGBS1) have certain similar clinical characteristics with Perlman syndrome. The syndrome is often associated with a high neonatal mortality rate and there are few reports of long-term survivors. Here, we present a case with the classic clinical features of Perlman syndrome and a DIS3L2 gene deletion that was discovered prenatally.

A role for the Perlman syndrome exonuclease Dis3l2 in the Lin28-let-7 pathway.

Project description:The pluripotency factor Lin28 blocks the expression of let-7 microRNAs in undifferentiated cells during development, and functions as an oncogene in a subset of cancers. Lin28 binds to let-7 precursor (pre-let-7) RNAs and recruits 3' terminal uridylyl transferases to selectively inhibit let-7 biogenesis. Uridylated pre-let-7 is refractory to processing by Dicer, and is rapidly degraded by an unknown RNase. Here we identify Dis3l2 as the 3'-5' exonuclease responsible for the decay of uridylated pre-let-7 in mouse embryonic stem cells. Biochemical reconstitution assays show that 3' oligouridylation stimulates Dis3l2 activity in vitro, and knockdown of Dis3l2 in mouse embryonic stem cells leads to the stabilization of pre-let-7. Our study establishes 3' oligouridylation as an RNA decay signal for Dis3l2, and identifies the first physiological RNA substrate of this new exonuclease, which is mutated in the Perlman syndrome of fetal overgrowth and causes a predisposition to Wilms' tumour development.

The Perlman syndrome DIS3L2 exoribonuclease safeguards endoplasmic reticulum-targeted mRNA translation and calcium ion homeostasis.

Project description:DIS3L2-mediated decay (DMD) is a surveillance pathway for certain non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) including ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), transfer RNAs (tRNAs), small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), and RMRP. While mutations in DIS3L2 are associated with Perlman syndrome, the biological significance of impaired DMD is obscure and pathological RNAs have not been identified. Here, by ribosome profiling (Ribo-seq) we find specific dysregulation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-targeted mRNA translation in DIS3L2-deficient cells. Mechanistically, DMD functions in the quality control of the 7SL ncRNA component of the signal recognition particle (SRP) required for ER-targeted translation. Upon DIS3L2 loss, sustained 3'-end uridylation of aberrant 7SL RNA impacts ER-targeted translation and causes ER calcium leakage. Consequently, elevated intracellular calcium in DIS3L2-deficient cells activates calcium signaling response genes and perturbs ESC differentiation. Thus, DMD is required to safeguard ER-targeted mRNA translation, intracellular calcium homeostasis, and stem cell differentiation.

Perlman syndrome nuclease DIS3L2 controls cytoplasmic non-coding RNAs and provides surveillance pathway for maturing snRNAs.

Project description:The exosome-independent exoribonuclease DIS3L2 is mutated in Perlman syndrome. Here, we used extensive global transcriptomic and targeted biochemical analyses to identify novel DIS3L2 substrates in human cells. We show that DIS3L2 regulates pol II transcripts, comprising selected canonical and histone-coding mRNAs, and a novel FTL_short RNA from the ferritin mRNA 5' UTR. Importantly, DIS3L2 contributes to surveillance of maturing snRNAs during their cytoplasmic processing. Among pol III transcripts, DIS3L2 particularly targets vault and Y RNAs and an Alu-like element BC200 RNA, but not Alu repeats, which are removed by exosome-associated DIS3. Using 3' RACE-Seq, we demonstrate that all novel DIS3L2 substrates are uridylated in vivo by TUT4/TUT7 poly(U) polymerases. Uridylation-dependent DIS3L2-mediated decay can be recapitulated in vitro, thus reinforcing the tight cooperation between DIS3L2 and TUTases. Together these results indicate that catalytically inactive DIS3L2, characteristic of Perlman syndrome, can lead to deregulation of its target RNAs to disturb transcriptome homeostasis.

A novel missense mutation of Wilms' Tumor 1 causes autosomal dominant FSGS.

Project description:FSGS is a clinical disorder characterized by focal scarring of the glomerular capillary tuft, podocyte injury, and nephrotic syndrome. Although idiopathic forms of FSGS predominate, recent insights into the molecular and genetic causes of FSGS have enhanced our understanding of disease pathogenesis. Here, we report a novel missense mutation of the transcriptional regulator Wilms' Tumor 1 (WT1) as the cause of nonsyndromic, autosomal dominant FSGS in two Northern European kindreds from the United States. We performed sequential genome-wide linkage analysis and whole-exome sequencing to evaluate participants from family DUK6524. Subsequently, whole-exome sequencing and direct sequencing were performed on proband DNA from family DUK6975. We identified multiple suggestive loci on chromosomes 6, 11, and 13 in family DUK6524 and identified a segregating missense mutation (R458Q) in WT1 isoform D as the cause of FSGS in this family. The identical mutation was found in family DUK6975. The R458Q mutation was not found in 1600 control chromosomes and was predicted as damaging by in silico simulation. We depleted wt1a in zebrafish embryos and observed glomerular injury and filtration defects, both of which were rescued with wild-type but not mutant human WT1D mRNA. Finally, we explored the subcellular mechanism of the mutation in vitro. WT1(R458Q) overexpression significantly downregulated nephrin and synaptopodin expression, promoted apoptosis in HEK293 cells and impaired focal contact formation in podocytes. Taken together, these data suggest that the WT1(R458Q) mutation alters the regulation of podocyte homeostasis and causes nonsyndromic FSGS.

Base Excision Repair Gene Polymorphisms and Wilms Tumor Susceptibility.

Project description:Base excision repair (BER) is the main mechanism to repair endogenous DNA lesions caused by reactive oxygen species. BER deficiency is linked with cancer susceptibility and premature aging. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within BER genes have been implicated in various human malignancies. Nevertheless, a comprehensive investigation of their association with Wilms tumor susceptibility is lacking. In this study, 145 cases and 531 sex and age-matched healthy controls were recruited. We systematically genotyped 18 potentially functional SNPs in six core BER pathway genes, using a candidate SNP approach. Logistic regression was employed to evaluate odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) adjusted for age and gender. Several SNPs showed protective effects against Wilms tumor. Significant associations with Wilms tumor susceptibility were shown for hOGG1 rs1052133 (dominant: adjusted OR = 0.66, 95% CI = 0.45-0.96, P = .030), FEN1 rs174538 (dominant: adjusted OR = 0.66, 95% CI = 0.45-0.95, P = .027; recessive: adjusted OR = 0.54, 95% CI = 0.32-0.93 P = .027), and FEN1 rs4246215 (dominant: adjusted OR = 0.55, 95% CI = 0.38-0.80, P = .002) polymorphisms. Stratified analysis was performed by age, gender, and clinical stage. Moreover, there was evidence of functional implication of these significant SNPs suggested by online expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) analysis. Our findings indicate that common SNPs in BER genes modify susceptibility to Wilms tumor.

MYCN gene polymorphisms and Wilms tumor susceptibility in Chinese children.

Project description:BackgroundWilms tumor, derived from embryonic cells, accounts for a large proportion of pediatric renal tumors. MYCN encoded by MYCN proto-oncogene, a member of the MYC family, is a BHLH transcription factor. It plays a critical role in tumorigenesis and predicts poor clinical outcomes in various types of cancer. However, the role of MYCN remained unclarified in Wilms tumor. In this study, we investigated the association between MYCN gene polymorphisms and Wilms tumor susceptibility.MethodsFour MYCN gene polymorphisms (rs57961569 G > A, rs9653226 T > C, rs13034994 A > G, and rs60226897 G > A) were genotyped in 183 cases and 603 controls. Adjusted odds ratios (AORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the association between MYCN gene polymorphisms and Wilms tumor susceptibility.ResultsOverall, no significant association was found for any of the four MYCN gene polymorphisms. Interestingly, in the stratification analysis, the rs57961569 was found to be associated with decreased Wilms tumor susceptibility in the children older than 18 months (AOR = 0.65, 95% CI = 0.42-1.00, P = .050). Moreover, older children carrying 2-4 risk genotypes were at increased risk of Wilms tumor (OR = 1.55, 95% CI = 1.001-2.40, P = .0497). Haplotype GCAA was shown to significantly increased Wilms tumor risk (AOR = 2.40, 95% CI = 1.12-5.14, P = .024).ConclusionOur study demonstrated that these MYCN gene polymorphisms might be low penetrant variants in Wilms tumor.

METTL14 gene polymorphisms decrease Wilms tumor susceptibility in Chinese children.

Project description:BackgroundWilms tumor is a highly heritable malignancy. Aberrant METTL14, a critical component of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase, is involved in carcinogenesis. The association between genetic variants in the METTL14 gene and Wilms tumor susceptibility remains to be fully elucidated. We aimed to assess whether variants within this gene are implicated in Wilms tumor susceptibility.MethodsA total of 403 patients and 1198 controls were analyzed. METTL14 genotypes were assessed by TaqMan genotyping assay.ResultAmong the five SNPs analyzed, rs1064034 T > A and rs298982 G > A exhibited a significant association with decreased susceptibility to Wilms tumor. Moreover, the joint analysis revealed that the combination of five protective genotypes exerted significantly more protective effects against Wilms tumor than 0-4 protective genotypes with an OR of 0.69. The stratified analysis further identified the protective effect of rs1064034 T > A, rs298982 G > A, and combined five protective genotypes in specific subgroups. The above significant associations were further validated by haplotype analysis and false-positive report probability analysis. Preliminary mechanism exploration indicated that rs1064034 T > A and rs298982 G > A are correlated with the expression and splicing event of their surrounding genes.ConclusionsCollectively, our results suggest that METTL14 gene SNPs may be genetic modifiers for the development of Wilms tumor.

Homozygous deletion of DIS3L2 exon 9 due to non-allelic homologous recombination between LINE-1s in a Japanese patient with Perlman syndrome.

Project description:Perlman syndrome is a rare, autosomal recessive overgrowth disorder. Recently, the deletion of exon 9 and other mutations of the DIS3L2 gene have been reported in patients; however, the mechanism behind this deletion is still unknown. We report the homozygous deletion of exon 9 of DIS3L2 in a Japanese patient with Perlman syndrome. We identified the deletion junction, and implicate a non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR) between two LINE-1 (L1) elements as the causative mechanism. Furthermore, the deletion junctions were different between the paternal and maternal mutant alleles, suggesting the occurrence of two independent NAHR events in the ancestors of each parent. The data suggest that the region around exon 9 might be a hot spot of L1-mediated NAHR.

Associations between <i>LMO1</i> gene polymorphisms and Wilms' tumor susceptibility.

Project description:Wilms' tumor is the most common childhood renal malignancy. A genome-wide association study identified LIM domain only 1 (LMO1) as having oncogenic potential. We examined the associations between LMO1 gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to Wilms' tumor. In this hospital-based, case-control study, we recruited 145 children with Wilms' tumor and 531 cancer-free children. Four polymorphisms (rs110419 A>G, rs4758051 G>A, rs10840002 A>G and rs204938 A>G) were genotyped using Taqman methodology. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to measure the associations between selected polymorphisms and Wilms' tumor susceptibility. Only rs110419 AG was found to be protective against Wilms' tumor (adjusted OR = 0.62, 95% CI = 0.41-0.94, P = 0.024) when compared to rs110419 AA. Wilms' tumor risk was markedly greater in children with 1-4 risk genotypes (nucleotide alterations) than in those with no risk genotypes (adjusted OR = 1.84, 95% CI = 1.25-2.69, P = 0.002). In a stratified analysis, the protective effect of rs110419 AG/GG was predominant in males. The association of 1-4 risk genotypes with Wilms' tumor risk was limited to subgroups of children who were >18 months old, female, and in clinical stages III+IV. Thus, LMO1 gene polymorphisms may contribute to Wilms' tumor risk, but this conclusion should be validated in other populations and larger studies.
