Pattern of SQSTM1 Gene Variants in a Hungarian Cohort of Paget's Disease of Bone.

ABSTRACT: Paget's disease of bone (PDB) is characterized by focal or multifocal increase in bone turnover. One of the most well-established candidate genes for susceptibility to PDB is Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1). Mutations in SQSTM1 have been documented among Western-European, British and American patients with PDB. However, there is no information on SQSTM1 mutation status in PDB patients from the Central- and Eastern-European regions. In this study, we conducted a mutation screening for SQSTM1 gene variants in 82 PDB patients and 100 control participants in Hungary. Mutations of SQSTM1 were detected in 18 PDB patients (21.95%); associations between genotype and clinical characteristics were also analyzed. Altogether, six different exonic alterations, including two types of UTR variants in the SQSTM1 gene, were observed in our PDB patients. Similarly, to previous genetic studies on Paget's disease, our most commonly detected variant was the c.1175C?>?T (p.Pro392Leu) in nine cases (four in monostotic and five in polyostotic form). We have surveyed the germline SQSTM1 variant distribution among Hungarian patients with PDB. We also highlighted that the pattern of the analyzed disease-associated pathophysiological parameters could partially discriminate PDB patients with normal or mutant SQSTM1 genotype. However, our findings also underline and strengthen that not solely SQSTM1 stands in the background of the complex PDB etiology.

Project description:BackgroundWe identified two families with Paget's disease of bone (PDB) linked to the p.Pro392Leu mutation within the SQSTM1 gene displaying a possible digenism. This study aimed at identifying this second genetic variant cosegregating with the p.Pro392Leu mutation and at characterizing its impact on the clinical and cellular phenotypes of PDB.MethodsWhole exome sequencing was performed in one patient per family and two healthy controls. We compared clinical characteristics of PDB in 14 relatives from the two families. The osteoclastic phenotype was compared in in vitro differentiated osteoclasts from 31 participants carrying the DOCK6 and/or SQSTM1 variants. Tridimensional models of SQSTM1 and DOCK6 proteins were generated to evaluate the impact of these variants on their stability and flexibility. Statistical analyses were performed with Graphpad prism.ResultsWhole-exome sequencing allowed us to identify the p.Val45Ile missense variant in the DOCK6 gene in patients. In both families, the mean age at PDB diagnosis was delayed in pagetic patients carrier of the p.Val45Ile variant alone compared to those carrying the p.Pro392Leu mutation alone (67 vs. 44 years, P = 0.03). Although both p.Val45Ile and p.Pro392Leu variants gave rise to a pagetic phenotype of osteoclast versus healthy controls, the p.Val45Ile variant was found to attenuate the severity of the osteoclastic phenotype of PDB caused by the p.Pro392Leu mutation when both variants were present. The DOCK6 mRNA expression was higher in carriers of the p.Val45Ile variant than in pagetic patients without any mutations and healthy controls. Structural bioinformatics analyses suggested that the p.Pro392Leu mutation might rigidify the UBA domain and thus decrease its possible intramolecular interaction with a novel domain, the serum response factor-transcription factor (SRF-TF)-like domain, whereas the p.Val45Ile variant may decrease SRF-TF-like activity.ConclusionThe p.Val45Ile variant may attenuate the severity of the clinical phenotype of PDB in patient carriers of both variants. In vitro, the rare variant of the DOCK6 may have a modifier effect on the p.Pro392Leu mutation, possibly via its effect on the SRF-TF-like.
