New PAX2 heterozygous mutation in a child with chronic kidney disease: a case report and review of the literature.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:We herein report a 3-year-old boy presented with chronic kidney disease (CKD) due to PAX2 missense mutation (C to G transversion at position 418 in exon 4). CASE PRESENTATION:He attended our clinic with a 3-month history of foamy urine. Upon examination, he had reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and renal atrophy. Genetic investigations revealed that he has inherited a mutated PAX2 gene from his father, who had renal failure at the age of 20. We searched the literature and confirmed that this mutation site has not been reported by any other group before. CONCLUSIONS:Although renal coloboma syndrome (RCS) with simultaneous kidney and eye involvement is the most common phenotype of PAX2 mutations, current literature supports that such mutations may have profuse clinical manifestations and renal hypoplasia is one distinct entity in the spectrum.

A novel <i>PAX2</i> heterozygous mutation in a family with Papillorenal syndrome: A case report and review of the literature.

Project description:PurposePapillorenal syndrome (PAPRS) is a rare inherited disorder often involves abnormalities of eye and kidney. Paired box 2 (PAX2) gene, which is widely expressed in the development of the organs including kidney, ureter, eye, ear, and central nervous system has been considered an underlying cause of PAPRS. The present work aims to further our understanding of PAX2 gene and PAPRS by reporting a family with PAPRS associated with a novel PAX2 mutation and describing ocular manifestation of PAX2 mutation in previous literatures.ObservationWe herein present a family with PAPRS presented with typical congenital optic disc defects and mild renal dysplasia. Through screening of candidate genes based on the next-generation sequencing, the heterozygous PAX2 mutation c.175C > T (p. Arg59Trp) was identified which had never been reported.ConclusionsThe study expands the genetic and clinic spectrum of PAPRS. Further review of detailed ocular manifestation and genotypes of PAX2 mutation in previous study improves the recognition of the ocular phenotypes' spectrum, assists in the identification of PAPRS. Moreover, this study reveals that PAPRS is a systemic disorder with heterogeneous diverse phenotypes, and shows the importance of gene panel sequencing in the diagnosis of PAPRS which could achieve high diagnostic rates.

Frameshift Mutation in PAX2 Related to Focal Segmental Glomerular Sclerosis: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:BackgroundPaired box gene 2 (PAX2) heterozygous mutations can cause renal coloboma syndrome, but its role in patients with focal segmental glomerular sclerosis (FSGS) has been rarely reported.MethodsBased on the clinical manifestations and renal pathological characteristics of the patient, as well as familial whole exome sequencing, the diagnosis of FSGS related to PAX2 mutation was confirmed. Treatment such as lowering urinary protein and blood pressure was given, and the patient was followed up and observed.ResultsThere is a familial heterozygous case presented with chronic kidney disease secondary to FSGS, which was related to PAX2 frameshift mutation due to the deletion of G at the position 76 (c.76delG). To our knowledge, this is the first report of PAX2 c.76delG variant related to adult-onset FSGS.ConclusionHere, we further expand the phenotypic spectrum of FSGS. Genetic screening especially PAX2 mutation is recommended in patients with adult-onset FSGS of unknown etiology.

New SAMD9L heterozygous mutation leading to myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia: A case report and review of the literature.

Project description:BackgroundSAMD9L mutation is linked to the development of myeloid neoplasm. The mutation has a wide range of clinical presentations involving neurological, immunological, and hematological manifestations. Until now, limited data regarding different variants of this genetic mutation existed. Here we present a 6-year-old girl who presented with acute myeloid leukemia/myelodysplastic changes and who carries a new germline variant mutation in the SAMD9L gene.Case presentationA 6-year-old girl who presented initially as a case of immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) was later diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic changes. In addition, she was found to have a new germline variant mutation in the SAMD9L gene (other known pathogenic variants known to cause ataxia pancytopenia syndrome). She was treated with chemotherapy followed by haplo identical transplant from her unaffected father. She is alive 30 months post-transplant and in complete remission with full donor chimerism. Her initial brain MRI showed mild prominence of the anterior (superior) vermis folia, suggesting mild atrophy. Ongoing surveillance for accompanied neurological manifestation is ongoing, although the patient is asymptomatic.ConclusionFor SAMD-9L-related disorder, a careful approach must be taken when a patient presents with a suspicious clinical feature even without a well-known genetic mutation giving the diverse presentation across affected members within the same family. In addition, other associated abnormalities should be monitored long-term.

Early-Onset Parkinson's Disease Caused by PLA2G6 Compound Heterozygous Mutation, a Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:PLA2G6 has been certified as a causative gene in patients with autosomal recessive early-onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD). We reported an EOPD case caused by PLA2G6 gene mutation, and performed neurological examination, genetic analysis, and multimodal neuroimaging to describe this phenotype. A compound heterozygous mutation c.991G>T/c.1472+1G>A was detected in this patient. Heterozygous for the c.991G>T and c.1472+1G>A were separately detected in his parents. Pathogenicity of these two mutations were predicted according to the American college of medical genetics and genomics (ACMG) guideline. MRI assessment showed absence of bilateral "swallow tail sign" and cerebellar atrophy in this patient, while no obvious difference in brain iron accumulation between PLA2G6 mutant PD patient and healthy controls. Cerebellar abnormalities may be a marker for diagnosis and evaluation of PLA2G6 mutation Parkinsonism. However, the iron accumulation in PD may not be the result of PLA2G6 mutation.

A novel heterozygous mutation of the NPHS1 gene in a Chinese child with congenital nephrotic syndrome: A case report.

Project description:RationaleCongenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS) is a heterogeneous disorder in which massive proteinuria, hypoproteinemia, and hyperlipidemia and marked edema are the main manifestations before 3 months-of-age. Here, we present a case involving the genetic diagnosis of a child with CNS.Patient concernsA 31-day-old male infant with diarrhea for 25 days and generalized edema for more than 10 days. There was no family history of kidney disease. On proband whole exome sequencing, a compound heterozygous mutation of the NPHS1 gene was identified, including a novel in-frame mutation in exon 14 (c.1864_1866dupACC p. T622dup) and a missense mutation in exon 8 (c.928G>A p. D310N).DiagnosesBased on the clinical and genetic findings, this patient was finally diagnosed with CNS.InterventionsThe main treatment options for the patient were 2-fold: anti-infective treatment and symptomatic treatment.OutcomesThe patient died in follow-up 2 months later; the specific reason for death was unclear.LessonsWhole exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing confirmed that the infant had CNS. Our study identified a novel mutation in an infant, thus expanding the gene-mutation spectrum of the NPHS1 gene, thus providing an efficient prenatal screening strategy and early genetic counseling.

Case Report: Primary Leptomeningeal Medulloblastoma in a Child: Clinical Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:Medulloblastoma is one of the most common pediatric central nervous system malignancies worldwide, and it is characterized by frequent leptomeningeal metastasizing. We report a rare case of primary leptomeningeal medulloblastoma of an 11-year-old Caucasian girl with a long-term disease history, non-specific clinical course, and challenges in the diagnosis verification. To date, 4 cases of pediatric primary leptomeningeal medulloblastoma are reported, and all of them are associated with unfavorable outcomes. The approaches of neuroimaging and diagnosis verification are analyzed in the article to provide opportunities for effective diagnosis of this disease in clinical practice. The reported clinical case of the primary leptomeningeal medulloblastoma is characterized by MR images with non-specific changes in the brain and spinal cord and by 18FDG-PET/CT images with diffuse heterogeneous hyperfixation of the radiopharmaceutical along the whole spinal cord. The immunohistochemistry and next-generation sequencing analyses of tumor samples were performed for comprehensive characterization of the reported clinical case.

Novel heterozygous F7 gene mutation (c. C1286T) associated with congenital factor VII deficiency: A case report and literature review.

Project description:BackgroundCongenital factor VII (FVII) deficiency is a rare inherited autosomal recessive disorder characterized by prolongation of prothrombin time and low FVII coagulation activity, which may increase the risk of bleeding.Case presentationA 66-year-old man with acute postoperative intracranial hemorrhage was transferred to our hospital owing to coagulation dysfunction. In coagulation tests, the FVII coagulation activity was less than 2%. Genetic analysis of the gene encoding FVII identified compound heterozygous mutations: c. 681+1 G>T and c. C1286T (p. Ala429Val).ConclusionsTo our knowledge, this is the first report describing the c. C1286T (p. Ala429Val) mutation in the FVII-encoding gene. We suggest that these mutations resulted in the reduced FVII activity and abnormal clotting in our patient after brain surgery.

Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease with a novel heterozygous missense mutation in the uromodulin gene: A case report.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) is a progressive chronic disease that is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. Symptoms include hyperuricemia, gout, interstitial nephritis, renal cysts, and progressive renal damage that can lead to end-stage renal disease. Mutations in the uromodulin gene (UMOD) characterize the ADTKD-UMOD clinical subtype of this disease. To date, > 100 UMOD mutations have been identified. Early diagnosis of ADTKD-UMOD is important to treat the disease, slow down disease progression, and facilitate the identification of potentially affected family members. CASE SUMMARY:We report a 40-year-old man harboring a novel heterozygous missense mutation in UMOD (c.554G>T; p. Arg185Leu). The patient had hyperuricemia, gout, and chronic kidney disease. The same mutation was detected in his daughter, aunt and cousin. CONCLUSION:A single nucleotide substitution in exon 3 of UMOD was responsible for the heterozygous missense mutation (c.554G>T, p.Arg185Leu).

A Novel RFXANK Mutation in a Chinese Child With MHC II Deficiency: Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) II deficiency is a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder that is characterized by the deficiency of MHC class II molecules. The disease is caused by transcription factor mutations including class II transactivator (CIITA), regulatory factor X-5 (RFX5), RFX-associated protein (RFXAP), and RFXAP-containing ankyrin repeat (RFXANK), respectively. Mutations in the RFXANK gene account for >70% of all known patients worldwide. Herein, we reported a 10-month-old boy with MHC II deficiency caused by a novel mutation in the RFXANK gene (c.337 + 1G>C). The boy was admitted to the hospital due to pneumonia and diarrhea at 4 months of age. Genetic analysis revealed a novel homozygous mutation in the RFXANK gene, which derived from the c.337 + 1G>C heterozygous mutations in the RFXANK gene of his parents. The boy died 3 months after diagnosis. More than 200 cases have been reported, and a review of the literature revealed different mutation rates of 4 transcription factors in different countries or regions. This is the first case report of MHC II deficiency from East Asia. We also describe all gene mutations that cause MHC II deficiency and the epidemiology of MHC II deficiency with gene mutations in this paper.

Case Report: Clinical delineation of <i>CACNA1D</i> mutation: New cases and literature review.

Project description:BackgroundCalcium ions are involved in several human cellular processes; nevertheless, the relationship between calcium channelopathies (CCs) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or intellectual disability (ID) has been previously investigated. We delineate the spectrum of clinical phenotypes and the symptoms associated with a syndrome caused by an inherited gain-of-function mutation in CACNA1D in a family with a history of neuropsychiatric disorders. We also review the clinical and molecular phenotype of previously reported variants of CACNA1D.Case presentationWe report the case of a 9-year-old female patient, diagnosed with ASD, severe ID, hyperactivity, and aggressive impulsive behaviors. The father, who was a 65-year-old at the time of his death, had ID and developed major depressive disorder with catatonic features and nihilistic delusion, followed by rapidly progressive dementia. He died after experiencing prolonged seizures followed by post-cardiac arrest. The patient's sister was a 30-year-old woman, known to have a severe ID with aggressive behaviors and sleep disorders. The sister has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and psychosis. Through whole exome sequencing, a heterozygous previously identified and functionally characterized missense likely pathogenic variant was identified in the CACNA1D gene NM_001128840.3: c.2015C > T (p.Ser672Leu). These findings are consistent with the genetic diagnosis of autosomal dominant primary aldosteronism, seizures, and neurological abnormalities. This variant was found in the heterozygous status in the patient, her father, and her affected sister.ConclusionThis case report will help to determine the key clinical features of this syndrome, which exhibits variable clinical presentations.
