Common mutation underlying primary hyperoxaluria type1 in three Indian children.

ABSTRACT: Primary hyperoxaluria is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by deficiency of alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase, which is encoded by the AGXT gene. We report three Indian children with primary hyperoxaluria type1 having a common mutation in this gene. All patients had evidence of chronic kidney disease at the time of diagnosis, with subsequent progression to end-stage renal disease. The detection of an identical mutation in the AGXT gene suggests that specific genetic screening for this mutation may be useful when considering the diagnosis of primary hyperoxaluria type1.

Primary hyperoxaluria.

Project description:Primary hyperoxalurias (PH) are inborn errors in the metabolism of glyoxylate and oxalate. PH type 1, the most common form, is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of the liver-specific enzyme alanine, glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGT) resulting in overproduction and excessive urinary excretion of oxalate. Recurrent urolithiasis and nephrocalcinosis are the hallmarks of the disease. As glomerular filtration rate decreases due to progressive renal damage, oxalate accumulates leading to systemic oxalosis. Diagnosis is often delayed and is based on clinical and sonographic findings, urinary oxalate assessment, DNA analysis, and, if necessary, direct AGT activity measurement in liver biopsy tissue. Early initiation of conservative treatment, including high fluid intake, inhibitors of calcium oxalate crystallization, and pyridoxine in responsive cases, can help to maintain renal function in compliant subjects. In end-stage renal disease patients, the best outcomes have been achieved with combined liver-kidney transplantation which corrects the enzyme defect.

Improving Treatment Options for Primary Hyperoxaluria.

Project description:The primary hyperoxalurias are three rare inborn errors of the glyoxylate metabolism in the liver, which lead to massively increased endogenous oxalate production, thus elevating urinary oxalate excretion and, based on that, recurrent urolithiasis and/or progressive nephrocalcinosis. Frequently, especially in type 1 primary hyperoxaluria, early end-stage renal failure occurs. Treatment possibilities are scare, namely, hyperhydration and alkaline citrate medication. In type 1 primary hyperoxaluria, vitamin B6, though, is helpful in patients with specific missense or mistargeting mutations. In those vitamin B6 responsive, urinary oxalate excretion and concomitantly urinary glycolate is significantly decreased, or even normalized. In patients non-responsive to vitamin B6, RNA interference medication is now available. Lumasiran® is already available on prescription and targets the messenger RNA of glycolate oxidase, thus blocking the conversion of glycolate into glyoxylate, hence decreasing oxalate, but increasing glycolate production. Nedosiran blocks liver-specific lactate dehydrogenase A and thus the final step of oxalate production. Similar to vitamin B6 treatment, where both RNA interference urinary oxalate excretion can be (near) normalized and plasma oxalate decreases, however, urinary and plasma glycolate increases with lumasiran treatment. Future treatment possibilities are on the horizon, for example, substrate reduction therapy with small molecules or gene editing, induced pluripotent stem cell-derived autologous hepatocyte-like cell transplantation, or gene therapy with newly developed vector technologies. This review provides an overview of current and especially new and future treatment options.

Mutation Characteristics of Primary Hyperoxaluria in the Chinese Population and Current International Diagnosis and Treatment Status.

Project description:BackgroundPrimary hyperoxaluria (PH) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder, mainly due to the increase in endogenous oxalate production, causing a series of clinical features such as kidney stones, nephrocalcinosis, progressive impairment of renal function, and systemic oxalosis. There are three common genetic causes of glycolate metabolism anomalies. Among them, PH type 1 is the most prevalent and severe type, and early end-stage renal failure often occurs.SummaryThis review summarizes PH through pathophysiology, genotype, clinical manifestation, diagnosis, and treatment options. And explore the characteristics of Chinese PH patients.Key messagesDiagnosis of this rare disease is based on clinical symptoms, urinary or blood oxalate concentrations, liver biopsy, and genetic testing. Currently, the main treatment is massive hydration, citrate inhibition of crystallization, dialysis, liver and kidney transplantation, and pyridoxine. Recently, RNA interference drugs have also been used. In addition, technologies such as gene editing and autologous liver cell transplantation are also being developed. C.815_816insGA and c.33_34insC mutation in the AGXT gene could be a common variant in Chinese PH1 population. Mutations at the end of exon 6 account for approximately 50% of all Chinese HOGA1 mutations. Currently, the treatment of PH in China still relies mainly on symptomatic and high-throughput dialysis, with poor prognosis (especially for PH1 patients).

Primary hyperoxaluria Type 1: A case report in an extended family with a novel AGXT gene mutation.

Project description:IntroductionPrimary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) is a genetic autosomal recessively inherited disorder due to mutation in the alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGXT) gene. It usually presents in children with nephrolithiasis and/or nephrocalcinosis and progressive renal function impairment and end stage renal disease (ESRD).Patient concernsA 13 years old Saudi boy with history of recurrent urolithiasis since the age of 2 years presented to us with picture of ESRD. He has strong family history of urolithiasis.DiagnosisWorking up the patient suggested the diagnosis of PH1 based on the typical clinical, laboratory, and imaging findings which was genetically proved by positive AXGT gene mutation. The mutation detected was not previously reported in literature. The mutation detected was not previously reported in literature. The novel mutation c. 799A>T p. (IIe267Phe) detected in our patient extend the spectrum of the known AGXT gene mutations.Interventions and outcomesHemodialysis as a temporary step followed by renal transplantation which is the only cure.ConclusionHigh index of suspicion of PH1 before ESRD should be considered in any patient who has recurrent urolithiasis since early life especially in presence of strong family history.

New therapeutics for primary hyperoxaluria type 1.

Project description:Purpose of reviewPrimary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) is a rare genetic disorder that causes hepatic overproduction of oxalate and, often, nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis, chronic kidney disease, and kidney failure. The purpose of the review is to provide an update on current emerging therapies for the treatment of PH1.Recent findingsUse of ribonucleic acid interference (RNAi) therapeutics that target the liver to block production of key enzymes along pathways that generate oxalate is a promising approach. Available evidence supports the efficacy of both Lumasiran (targeting glycolate oxidase) and Nedosiran (targeting hepatic lactate dehydrogenase (LDHa)) to reduce urinary oxalate excretion in PH1. The efficacy of alternative approaches including stiripentol (an anticonvulsant drug that also targets LDHa), lanthanum (a potential gastrointestinal oxalate binder), and Oxalobacter formigenes (a bacterium that can degrade oxalate within the gastrointestinal tract and may also increase its secretion from blood) are all also under study. Genetic editing tools including clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/Cas9 are also in preclinical study as a potential PH1 therapeutic.SummaryNovel treatments can reduce the plasma oxalate concentration and urinary oxalate excretion in PH1 patients. Thus, it is possible these approaches will reduce the need for combined kidney and liver transplantation to significantly decrease the morbidity and mortality of affected patients.

Hydroxyproline Metabolism and Oxalate Synthesis in Primary Hyperoxaluria.

Project description:Background Endogenous oxalate synthesis contributes to calcium oxalate stone disease and is markedly increased in the inherited primary hyperoxaluria (PH) disorders. The incomplete knowledge regarding oxalate synthesis complicates discovery of new treatments. Hydroxyproline (Hyp) metabolism results in the formation of oxalate and glycolate. However, the relative contribution of Hyp metabolism to endogenous oxalate and glycolate synthesis is not known.Methods To define this contribution, we performed primed, continuous, intravenous infusions of the stable isotope [15N,13C5]-Hyp in nine healthy subjects and 19 individuals with PH and quantified the levels of urinary 13C2-oxalate and 13C2-glycolate formed using ion chromatography coupled to mass detection.Results The total urinary oxalate-to-creatinine ratio during the infusion was 73.1, 70.8, 47.0, and 10.6 mg oxalate/g creatinine in subjects with PH1, PH2, and PH3 and controls, respectively. Hyp metabolism accounted for 12.8, 32.9, and 14.8 mg oxalate/g creatinine in subjects with PH1, PH2, and PH3, respectively, compared with 1.6 mg oxalate/g creatinine in controls. The contribution of Hyp to urinary oxalate was 15% in controls and 18%, 47%, and 33% in subjects with PH1, PH2, and PH3, respectively. The contribution of Hyp to urinary glycolate was 57% in controls, 30% in subjects with PH1, and <13% in subjects with PH2 or PH3.Conclusions Hyp metabolism differs among PH types and is a major source of oxalate synthesis in individuals with PH2 and PH3. In patients with PH1, who have the highest urinary excretion of oxalate, the major sources of oxalate remain to be identified.

A novel mutation of human liver alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase causes primary hyperoxaluria type 1: immunohistochemical quantification and subcellular distribution.

Project description:A novel alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGT) mutation involved in primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) was studied in Japanese patients. Two mutations in exon 7, c.751T>A and c.752G>A, lead to a W251K amino acid substitution. Proband 1 (patient 1) was homozygous for the W251K mutation allele (DDBJ Accession No. AB292648), and AGT-specific activity in the patient's liver was very low. To reveal the cause of the low enzymatic activity, the intracellular localization of AGT (W251K) was studied using immunohistochemistry and immunoelectron microscopy. The latter analysis showed that patient 2 had only one-fifth of the normal AGT expression per catalase, suggesting impairment of AGT (W251K) dependent transport into peroxisomes. Peroxisomal transport of human AGT is believed to be dependent on the presence of the type 1 peroxisomal targeting sequence. The C-terminal tripeptide of AGT, KKL is necessary for peroxisomal targeting. In cultured cells, EGFP-AGT (W251K) localized both in the peroxisome and cytosol. These results were consistent with the data obtained from liver analysis of patient 2. The subcellular distribution of AGT (W251K) and the results from a random mutagenesis study suggest that KKL is necessary for peroxisomal targeting of human AGT, but additional signal other than KKL may be necessary.

Assessment of Urine Proteomics in Type 1 Primary Hyperoxaluria.

Project description:Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) and idiopathic hypercalciuria (IHC) are stone-forming diseases that may result in the formation of calcium (Ca) oxalate (Ox) stones, nephrocalcinosis, and progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD). Poorer clinical outcome in PH1 is segregated by the highest urine (Ur)-Ox (UrOx), while IHC outcomes are not predictable by UrCa. We hypothesized that differences would be found in selected Ur-protein (PRO) patterns in PH1 and IHC, compared to healthy intra-familial sibling controls (C) of PH1 patients. We also hypothesized that the PRO patterns associated with higher UrOx levels would reflect injury, inflammation, biomineralization, and abnormal tissue repair processes in PH1.Twenty four-hour Ur samples were obtained from 3 cohorts: PH1 (n = 47); IHC (n = 35) and C (n = 13) and were analyzed using targeted platform-based multi-analyte profile immunoassays and for UrOx and UrCa by biochemical measurements.Known stone matrix constituents, osteopontin, calbindin, and vitronectin were lowest in PH1 (C > IHC > PH1; p < 0.05). Ur-interleukin-10; chromogranin A; epidermal growth factor (EGF); insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and macrophage inflammatory PRO-1? (MIP-1?) were higher in PH1 > C (p = 0.03 to p < 0.05). Fetuin A; IGF-1, MIP-1?, and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 were highest in PH1 > IHC (p < 0.001 to p = 0.005).PH1 Ur-PROs reflected overt inflammation, chemotaxis, oxidative stress, growth factors (including EGF), and pro-angiogenic and calcification regulation/inhibition compared to the C and IHC cohorts. Many of the up- and downregulated PH1-PROs found in this study are also found in CKD, acute kidney injury, stone formers, and/or stone matrices. Further data analyses may provide evidence for PH1 unique PROs or demonstrate a poorer clinical outcome.
