Bi-allelic CSF1R Mutations Cause Skeletal Dysplasia of Dysosteosclerosis-Pyle Disease Spectrum and Degenerative Encephalopathy with Brain Malformation.

ABSTRACT: Colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) plays key roles in regulating development and function of the monocyte/macrophage lineage, including microglia and osteoclasts. Mono-allelic mutations of CSF1R are known to cause hereditary diffuse leukoencephalopathy with spheroids (HDLS), an adult-onset progressive neurodegenerative disorder. Here, we report seven affected individuals from three unrelated families who had bi-allelic CSF1R mutations. In addition to early-onset HDLS-like neurological disorders, they had brain malformations and skeletal dysplasia compatible to dysosteosclerosis (DOS) or Pyle disease. We identified five CSF1R mutations that were homozygous or compound heterozygous in these affected individuals. Two of them were deep intronic mutations resulting in abnormal inclusion of intron sequences in the mRNA. Compared with Csf1r-null mice, the skeletal and neural phenotypes of the affected individuals appeared milder and variable, suggesting that at least one of the mutations in each affected individual is hypomorphic. Our results characterized a unique human skeletal phenotype caused by CSF1R deficiency and implied that bi-allelic CSF1R mutations cause a spectrum of neurological and skeletal disorders, probably depending on the residual CSF1R function.

Project description:CSF1R mutations cause autosomal-dominant CSF1R-related leukoencephalopathy with axonal spheroids and pigmented glia (CSF1R-ALSP) and autosomal-recessive brain abnormalities, neurodegeneration, and dysosteosclerosis (BANDDOS). The former is increasingly recognized, and disease-modifying therapy was introduced; however, literature is scarce on the latter. This review analyzes BANDDOS and discusses similarities and differences with CSF1R-ALSP.We systematically retrieved and analyzed the clinical, genetic, radiological, and pathological data on the previously reported and our cases with BANDDOS. We identified 19 patients with BANDDOS (literature search according to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines: n = 16, our material: n = 3). We found 11 CSF1R mutations, including splicing (n = 3), missense (n = 3), nonsense (n = 2), and intronic (n = 2) variants and one inframe deletion. All mutations disrupted the tyrosine kinase domain or resulted in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The material is heterogenous, and the presented information refers to the number of patients with sufficient data on specific symptoms, results, or performed procedures. The first symptoms occurred in the perinatal period (n = 5), infancy (n = 2), childhood (n = 5), and adulthood (n = 1). Dysmorphic features were present in 7/17 cases. Neurological symptoms included speech disturbances (n = 13/15), cognitive decline (n = 12/14), spasticity/rigidity (n = 12/15), hyperactive tendon reflex (n = 11/14), pathological reflexes (n = 8/11), seizures (n = 9/16), dysphagia (n = 9/12), developmental delay (n = 7/14), infantile hypotonia (n = 3/11), and optic nerve atrophy (n = 2/7). Skeletal deformities were observed in 13/17 cases and fell within the dysosteosclerosis - Pyle disease spectrum. Brain abnormalities included white matter changes (n = 19/19), calcifications (n = 15/18), agenesis of corpus callosum (n = 12/16), ventriculomegaly (n = 13/19), Dandy-Walker complex (n = 7/19), and cortical abnormalities (n = 4/10). Three patients died in infancy, two in childhood, and one case at unspecified age. A single brain autopsy evidenced multiple brain anomalies, absence of corpus callosum, absence of microglia, severe white matter atrophy with axonal spheroids, gliosis, and numerous dystrophic calcifications.In conclusion, BANDDOS presents in the perinatal period or infancy and has a devastating course with congenital brain abnormalities, developmental delay, neurological deficits, osteopetrosis, and dysmorphic features. There is a significant overlap in the clinical, radiological, and neuropathological aspects between BANDDOS and CSF1R-ALSP. As both disorders are on the same continuum, there is a window of opportunity to apply available therapy in CSF1R-ALSP to BANDDOS.

Project description:ObjectiveGamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the adult central nervous system, plays an important role during embryonic neural network formation. GAD67 is the rate-limiting enzyme in GABA synthesis, and its deficiency leads to developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 89 (DEE 89). Patients who suffered from this syndrome generally manifested severe to profound neurodevelopmental delay, seizures, and often congenital anomalies such as the cleft palate or/and omphalocele. Up to now, only three papers on this syndrome have been published, and our knowledge about the disease's clinical course and pathophysiology is in its infancy.MethodsWe used whole-exome sequencing (WES) and multiple in-silico tools to detect a potential causative variant in a patient with severe neurodevelopmental delay and refractory epilepsy. Moreover, by molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation, we investigate the effect of the candidate variant on the GAD67 function and structure.ResultsWES data analysis revealed a novel deleterious variant (NM_000817.3: c.850C>T; p.Leu284Phe) in the GAD1 gene, which encodes the GAD67 enzyme. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation showed that this variant has deleterious effects on the structure and function of the GAD67. This study's patient, in addition to typical symptoms of the DEE89, showed microcephaly and clonus in the toe, which were novel clinical findings.SignificanceOur findings expand the mutational and clinical spectrum of DEE 89. Also, by gathering clinical symptoms and genetic findings of previously reported cases, moreover providing a comprehensive clinical picture of the disease, we found that there was no common drug therapy among patients whose epilepsy was controlled. Furthermore, the comparison of clinical symptoms between patients with missense and truncating mutations did not show any significant clinical difference, except that patients with missense mutations did not show cleft palates or omphaloceles.
