A Case of Vitamin D-Dependent Rickets Type 1A with a Novel Mutation in the Uzbek Population.

ABSTRACT: Vitamin D-dependent rickets type 1A (VDDR-1A) (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man #264700) is a rare, autosomal recessively inherited disorder due to inactivating mutations in CYP27B1. It is characterized by early onset of rickets with hypocalcemia. We aimed to describe the clinical and laboratory findings in a VDDR-1A case and to report a novel homozygote truncating mutation NM_000785.3 c.403C>T (p.Q135*) in CYP27B1 which to our knowledge is the first described mutation in the Uzbek population. The patient was admitted with tetany at the age of 12 months. He was a healthy Uzbek boy until 9 months of age when he had a seizure due to hypocalcemia. Vitamin D treatment was given orally in Turkmenistan (no data available for dose and duration). The patient was the product of a consanguineous marriage. His brother had died with hypocalcemia and pneumonia. At physical examination, anthropometric measurements were within normal limits; he had caput quadratum, enlarged wrists, and carpopedal spasm. Blood calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, and parathormone (PTH) levels were 5.9 mg/dL, 3.5 mg/dL, 987 IU/L, and 182.8 pg/mL (12-72), respectively. Radiological findings included cupping and fraying of the radial and ulnar metaphyses. Renal ultrasound revealed nephrocalcinosis (grade 1). Despite high serum PTH and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 level was low, suggesting a diagnosis of VDDR-1A. The patient was treated with calcium carbonate and calcitriol. DNA sequencing revealed a novel homozygous mutation of NM_000785.3 c.403C>T (p.Q135*) in CYP27B1. VDDR-1A is a rare disorder which needs to be considered even in countries where nutritional vitamin D deficiency is still common.

Project description:ContextVitamin D-dependent rickets type 1A (VDDR1A) is a rare autosomal recessively inherited disorder due to loss-of-function mutations in the CYP27B1 gene. CYP27B1 encodes an enzyme of 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1?-hydroxylase for converting inactive 25-OHD to biologically active 1,25-(OH)2D.ObjectiveTo identify underlying genetic defects in patients with VDDR1A.MethodsTwelve patients from 7 Turkish and 2 Saudi families were investigated. The coding exons and intron-exon boundaries of the CYP27B1 gene were amplified by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) from peripheral lymphocyte DNA. PCR products were directly sequenced. The consequences of c.590G > A mutation were analyzed by in silico and functional analysis.ResultsCYP27B1 mutations were identified in all the patients. Two novel mutations were identified in two separate families: c.171delG (family 7) and c.398_400dupAAT (family 8). The intra-exon deletion of c.171delG resulted in a frameshift and premature stop codon 20 amino acids downstream from the mutation (p.L58Cfs?20). The intra-exon duplication of c.398_400dupAAT generated a premature stop codon at the mutation site (p.W134?). A missense c.590G > A (p.G197D) mutation was found in a patient from family 4 and caused a defect in pre-mRNA splicing. As a result, two populations of transcripts were detected: the majority of them with intron 3 retention (83%), and the minority (17%) being properly spliced transcripts with about 16% of wild-type enzymatic activity. The remaining nine patients from six families carried a previously reported c.1319_1325dupCCCACCC (F443Pfs?24) mutation. Clinically, all the patients need continued calcitriol treatment, which was consistent with inactivation of 25-hydroxy vitamin D1?-hydroxylase activity.ConclusionTwo novel frameshift CYP27B1 mutations were identified and predicted to inactivate 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1?-hydroxylase. The loss of enzymatic activity by c.590G > A missense mutation was mainly caused by aberrant pre-mRNA splicing.
