Diagnostic radiographs, computed tomography (CT), nuclear medicine studies, and intraoperative fluoroscopy durations were analyzed for radiation exposure. Cumulative and yearly effective ionizing radiation doses, cumulative background radiation, and total radiograph studies were compared between pediatric and adult populations. In 24 patients with 1,246 imaging studies (average 5.5 years longitudinal treatment duration), the mean estimated cumulative effective radiation dose per patient was 30.0 ...[more]

Project description:Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a heterogeneous genetic disorder characterized by bone fragility and fracture. Mutations in 20 distinct genes can cause OI, and therefore, the genetic diagnosis of OI is frequently difficult to obtain because of the great number of genes that can be related with this disease. Studies that report the most frequently mutated genes in OI patients can help to improve molecular strategies for diagnosis of the disease. In order to characterize the mutation profile of OI in Brazilian patients, we analyzed 30 unrelated patients through SSCP screening, NGS gene panel, and/or Sanger sequencing for the 11 most frequently mutated genes in the database of mutations, including COL1A1, COL1A2, P3H1, CRTAP, PPIB, SERPINH1, SERPINF1, FKBP10, SP7, WNT1 and IFITM5. Disease-causing variants were identified in COL1A1, COL1A2, FKBP10, P3H1, and IFITM5. A total of 28 distinct mutations were identified, including seven novel changes. Our data show that the analysis of these five genes is able to detect at least 95% of causative mutations in OI disorder from Brazilian population. However, it has to be taken into considerations that distinct populations can have different frequencies of disease-causing variants. Hence, it is important to replicate this study in other groups.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta is a phenotypically and molecularly heterogeneous group of inherited connective tissue disorders that share similar skeletal abnormalities causing bone fragility and deformity. Previously, the disorder was thought to be an autosomal dominant bone dysplasia caused by defects in type I collagen, but in the past 10 years discoveries of novel (mainly recessive) causative genes have lent support to a predominantly collagen-related pathophysiology and have contributed to an improved understanding of normal bone development. Defects in proteins with very different functions, ranging from structural to enzymatic and from intracellular transport to chaperones, have been described in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta. Knowledge of the specific molecular basis of each form of the disorder will advance clinical diagnosis and potentially stimulate targeted therapeutic approaches. In this Seminar, together with diagnosis, management, and treatment, we describe the defects causing osteogenesis imperfecta and their mechanism and interrelations, and classify them into five groups on the basis of the metabolic pathway compromised, specifically those related to collagen synthesis, structure, and processing; post-translational modification; folding and cross-linking; mineralisation; and osteoblast differentiation.

Project description:Collagen produced in vitro by bone cells isolated from 19 patients with different forms of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) was analysed. Clinically, four patients were classified as OI type I, 10 patients as OI type III and five patients as OI type IV. Bone cells of 12 of the 19 OI patients produced structurally abnormal type I collagen. Electrophoretically uniformly slower migrating collagen type I alpha-chains were found in one case of OI type I, in seven cases of OI type III and in one case of OI type IV; two cultures of OI type III produced two different populations of collagen type I alpha-chains, and one culture of OI type IV showed reduction-sensitive dimer formation of alpha 1(I) chains, resulting from the inadequate incorporation of a cysteine residue into the triple helical domain of alpha 1(I). Quantitative analysis of collagen metabolism led to the distinction of two groups of cultured OI osteoblasts. In osteoblasts of OI type I, mainly production of collagen was decreased, whereas secretion, processing and pericellular accumulation of (pro)collagen type I was similar to that in control osteoblasts. In contrast, in osteoblasts of OI types III and IV, production as well as secretion, processing and pericellular accumulation of (pro)collagen type I were significantly decreased. Low levels of type I collagen were found irrespective of the presence or absence of structural abnormalities of collagen type I in all OI types.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is the term used to describe a group of rare inherited skeletal disorders characterized by a greatly increased risk of fragility fractures (1). Mutations in several genes can cause OI but the condition is most commonly caused by mutations of COLIA1 or COL1A2 resulting in the production of collagen which is abnormal or present in reduced amounts. Fractures in OI are particularly common during childhood but the elevated fracture risk continues throughout life. Bone mineral density (BMD) can be reduced in OI but the magnitude of increase in fracture risk is far greater than can be accounted for by low BMD, highlighting that a key mechanism of bone fragility is reduced bone quality due to defects of bone matrix and mineralization. A multidisciplinary approach is needed to optimize management of OI, with input from physicians, orthopedic surgeons, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and other allied health professionals. Orthopedic surgery plays a key role both in the fixation of fractures and in the correction of limb deformities. Bisphosphonates have been widely used in the treatment of children and adults with OI. Although there is good evidence that they increase BMD, it is uncertain to what extent they reduce fracture risk. Clinical trials of bone anabolic drugs such as teriparatide and inhibitors of sclerostin have also been studied; although they increase BMD, studies of these agents have not been powered to look at fracture endpoints. Various other treatment modalities including denosumab, and cell therapy have been explored but haven't gained acceptance in routine clinical practice. There have been huge advances in understanding the pathogenesis of OI but these have not been accompanied by advances in treatment. This signals need for well-designed clinical trials with fracture endpoints in OI, both with existing agents and with the newer therapeutic agents that are now starting to emerge.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta, or brittle bone disease, is a congenital disease that primarily causes low bone mass and bone fractures but it can negatively affect other organs. It is usually inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion, although rarer recessive and X-chromosome-linked forms of the disease have been identified. In addition to type I collagen, mutations in a number of other genes, often involved in type I collagen synthesis or in the differentiation and function of osteoblasts, have been identified in the last several years. Seldom, the study of a rare disease has delivered such a wealth of new information that have helped our understanding of multiple processes involved in collagen synthesis and bone formation. In this short review I will describe the clinical features and the molecular genetics of the disease, but then focus on how OI dysregulates all aspects of extracellular matrix biology. I will conclude with a discussion about OI therapeutics.

Project description:Pediatric patients with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI), a heritable connective tissue disorder, frequently suffer from long bone deformations. Surgical correction often results in bone non-unions, necessitating revision surgery with autogenous bone grafting using bone-marrow-derived stem cells (BM-SC) to regenerate bone. BM-SC harvest is generally invasive and limited in supply; thus, adipose tissue's stromal vascular fraction (SVF) has been introduced as an alternative stem cell reservoir. To elucidate if OI patients' surgical site dissected adipose tissue could be used as autologous bone graft in future, we investigated whether the underlying genetic condition alters SVF's cell populations and in vitro differentiation capacity. After optimizing SVF isolation, we demonstrate successful isolation of SVF of pediatric OI patients and non-OI controls. The number of viable cells was comparable between OI and controls, with about 450,000 per gram tissue. Age, sex, type of OI, disease-causing collagen mutation, or anatomical site of harvest did not affect cell outcome. Further, SVF-containing cell populations were similar between OI and controls, and all isolated SVF's demonstrated chondrogenic, adipogenic, and osteogenic differentiation capacity in vitro. These results indicate that SVF from pediatric OI patients could be used as a source of stem cells for autologous stem cell therapy in OI.

Project description:A new paradigm has emerged for osteogenesis imperfecta as a collagen-related disorder. The more prevalent autosomal dominant forms of osteogenesis imperfecta are caused by primary defects in type I collagen, whereas autosomal recessive forms are caused by deficiency of proteins which interact with type I procollagen for post-translational modification and/or folding. Factors that contribute to the mechanism of dominant osteogenesis imperfecta include intracellular stress, disruption of interactions between collagen and noncollagenous proteins, compromised matrix structure, abnormal cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions and tissue mineralization. Recessive osteogenesis imperfecta is caused by deficiency of any of the three components of the collagen prolyl 3-hydroxylation complex. Absence of 3-hydroxylation is associated with increased modification of the collagen helix, consistent with delayed collagen folding. Other causes of recessive osteogenesis imperfecta include deficiency of the collagen chaperones FKBP10 or Serpin H1. Murine models are crucial to uncovering the common pathways in dominant and recessive osteogenesis imperfecta bone dysplasia. Clinical management of osteogenesis imperfecta is multidisciplinary, encompassing substantial progress in physical rehabilitation and surgical procedures, management of hearing, dental and pulmonary abnormalities, as well as drugs, such as bisphosphonates and recombinant human growth hormone. Novel treatments using cell therapy or new drug regimens hold promise for the future.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a congenital disorder characterized by increased bone fragility and low bone mass.The presence of COL1A1 or COL1A2 mutation was investigated by direct sequencing in 72 patients with OI type I, III, or IV (27 males and 45 females; age range 0.2-62 years) from 37 unrelated families. The clinical features of these patients were also recorded.Thirty-seven COL1A1 and COL1A2 mutations were identified, including 28 COL1A1 mutations and 9 COL1A2 mutations. Fifteen (41%) were novel mutations, and twelve (32%) were familial mutations. A review of their medical records revealed that the 72 patients could be classified into OI type I (n?=?42), III (n?=?5), and IV (n?=?25). Twenty-nine patients had helical mutations (caused by the substitution of a glycine within the Gly-X-Y triplet domain of the triple helix), and 42 had haploinsufficiency mutations (caused by frameshift, nonsense, and splice-site mutations). Compared with haploinsufficiency, the patients with helical mutations had more severely impaired skeletal phenotypes, including shorter height, lower bone mineral density, poorer walking ability, more frequent manifestations of dentinogenesis imperfecta and scoliosis (p?<?0.05).Genotype and phenotype databases are expected to promote better genetic counseling and medical care of patients with OI.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic disorder of the connective tissue and 90% of cases are due to dominant mutations in COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes. To increase OI disease knowledge and contribute to patient follow-up management, a homogeneous Italian cohort of 364 subjects affected by OI types I-IV was evaluated. The study population was composed of 262 OI type I, 24 type II, 39 type III, and 39 type IV patients. Three hundred and nine subjects had a type I collagen affecting function mutations (230 in ?1(I) and 79 in ?2(I)); no disease-causing changes were noticed in 55 patients. Compared with previous genotype-phenotype OI correlation studies, additional observations arose: a new effect for ?1- and ?2-serine substitutions has been pointed out and heart defects, never considered before, resulted associated to quantitative mutations (P?=?0.043). Moreover, some different findings emerged if compared with previous literature; especially, focusing the attention on the lethal form, no association with specific collagen regions was found and most of variants localized in the previously reported "lethal clusters" were causative of OI types I-IV. Some discrepancies have been highlighted also considering the "50-55 nucleotides rule," as well as the relationship between specific collagen I mutated region and the presence of dentinogenesis imperfecta and/or blue sclera. Despite difficulties still present in defining clear rules to predict the clinical outcome in OI patients, this study provides new pieces for completing the puzzle, also thanks to the inclusion of clinical signs never considered before and to the large number of OI Italian patients.
