Three Patient Kindred with a Novel Phenotype of Osteogenesis Imperfecta due to a COL1A1 Variant

ABSTRACT: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is characterized by fractures and progressive bone deformities. Fracture rates peak during the toddler and adolescent years and decline during adulthood but do not stop entirely. We describe a kindred, the affected members of which were the mother and two sons, who presented with an apparently unique phenotype of OI. Our patients demonstrated a pattern of prenatal bone deformities followed by multiple, nontraumatic long bone fractures within the first two years of life and then an absence of nontraumatic fractures thereafter. No extra-skeletal manifestations have been noted to date. The mother did not receive bisphosphonate therapy but had no nontraumatic fractures after the age of five months. Intravenous bisphosphonate therapy was started for both sons within two months of birth, with the most recent infusions at age 18 months and 28 months in Patients 2 and 3, respectively. Two patients harbored a variant of uncertain significance in the COL1A1 gene. This heterozygous variant, c.3548C>T; p.(Pro1183Leu), is listed in the OI Variant Database as affecting only one other individual with osteopenia. We describe three family members with a unique presenting phenotype of OI, characterized by cessation of nontraumatic fractures after the first two years of life.

A novel splicing pathogenic variant in COL1A1 causing osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type I in a Chinese family.

Project description:BackgroundOsteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a rare autosomal inheritable disorder characterized by bone fragility and skeletal deformity, is caused by pathogenic variants in genes impairing the synthesis and processing of extracellular matrix protein collagen type I. With the use of next-generation sequencing and panels approaches, an increasing number of OI patients can be confirmed and new pathogenic variants can be discovered. This study sought to identify pathogenic gene variants in a Chinese family with OI I.MethodsWhole-exome sequencing was used to identify pathogenic variants in the proband, which is confirmed by Sanger sequencing and cosegregation analysis; MES, HSF, and Spliceman were used to analyze this splicing variant；qRT-PCR was performed to identify the mRNA expression level of COL1A1 in patient peripheral blood samples; Minigene splicing assay was performed to mimic the splicing process of COL1A1 variants in vitro; Analysis of evolutionary conservation of amino acid residues and structure prediction of the mutant protein.ResultsA novel splicing pathogenic variant (c.3814+1G>T) was identified in this OI family by using whole-exome sequencing, Sanger sequencing, and cosegregation analysis. Sequencing of RT-PCR products from the COL1A1 minigene variant reveals a 132-nucleotide (nt) insertion exists at the junction between exons 48 and exon 49 of the COL1A1 cDNA. Splicing assay indicates that the mutated minigene produces an alternatively spliced transcript which may cause a frameshift resulting in early termination of protein expression. The molecular analysis suggested that the altered amino acid is located at the C-terminus of type I procollagen.ConclusionOur study reveals the pathogenesis of a novel COL1A1 splicing pathogenic variant c.3814+1G>T in a Chinese family with OI I.

COL1A1/2 Pathogenic Variants and Phenotype Characteristics in Ukrainian Osteogenesis Imperfecta Patients.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a hereditary bone disorder caused by defects of type I collagen. Although up to 90% of patients harbor pathogenic variants in the COL1A1/2 gene, which codes for collagen α1/2 chains, the spectrum of OI genotypes may differ between populations, and there is academic controversy around OI genotype-phenotype correlations. In the current study, 94 Ukrainian OI families were interviewed. Clinical and genealogical information was collected from patients in spoken form, and their phenotypes were described. To identify the spectrum of collagen I pathogenic variants, COL1A1/2 mutational analysis with Sanger sequencing was performed on the youngest affected individual of every family. Of the 143 patients investigated, 67 (46.85%) had type I OI, 24 (16.78%) had type III, 49 (34.27%) had type IV, and III (2.10%) had type V. The mean number of fractures suffered per patient per year was 1.32 ± 2.88 (type I 0.50 ± 0.43; type III 3.51 ± 6.18; type IV 1.44 ± 1.77; and type 5 0.77 ± 0.23). 87.23% of patients had skeletal deformations of different severity. Blue sclera, dentinogenesis imperfecta, and hearing loss were present in 87%, 55%, and 22% of patients, respectively. COL1A1/2 pathogenic variants were harbored by 60 patients (63.83%). 27 pathogenic variants are described herein for the first time. The majority of the pathogenic variants were located in the COL1A1 gene (76.19%). Half (49.21%) of the pathogenic variants were represented by structural variants. OI phenotype severity was highly correlated with type of collagen I defect. The current article presents an analysis of the clinical manifestations and COL1A1/2 mutational spectrum of 94 Ukrainian OI families with 27 novel COL1A1/2 pathogenic variants. It is hoped that this data and its analysis will contribute toward the increased understanding of the phenotype development and genetics of the disorder.

A novel variant of osteogenesis imperfecta type IV and low serum phosphorus level caused by a Val94Asp mutation in COL1A1.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by bone fragility and fractures, and associated with bone deformity, short stature, dentin, ligament and blue‑gray eye sclera. OI is caused by a heterozygous mutation in collagen α‑1(I) chain (COL1A1) or collagen α‑2(I) chain (COL1A2) genes that encode α chains of type I collagen. Collagen α chain peptide contains an N‑propeptide, which has a role in assembly and processing of collagen. Point mutations in the N‑propeptide domain appear to trigger OI. In the present study, a novel heterozygous missense mutation, c.281T>A (p.Val94Asp), was identified in the von Willebrand C domain of N‑terminal of type I collagen in an individual with type IV OI. The majority of N‑terminal mutations are associated with OI/Ehlers‑Danlos syndrome (EDS); however, in the present study, the affected individual did not suffer from EDS and the level of serum phosphorus of the patient was low (0.67 mmol/l). A number of clinical phenotypes were observed at the same variation site or in the same region on the polypeptide chain of COL1A, which suggests that additional genetic and environmental factors may influence the severity of OI. The present study may provide insight into the phenotype‑genotype association in collagen-associated diseases and improve clinical diagnosis of OI.

A novel COL1A1 mutation in a family with osteogenesis imperfecta associated with phenotypic variabilities.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heterogeneous disorder that is characterized by bone fragility and systemic complications, and is mainly caused by gene mutations in COL1A1 or COL1A2. A novel COL1A1 splicing mutation, c.750+2T>A, was identified in a Japanese OI family. Only the proband in this family showed various complications, such as heart valve diseases and severe scoliosis. The clinical heterogeneity in the family is discussed in this study.

Identification of a novel COL1A1 frameshift mutation, c.700delG, in a Chinese osteogenesis imperfecta family.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a family of genetic disorders associated with bone loss and fragility. Mutations associated with OI have been found in genes encoding the type I collagen chains. People with OI type I often produce insufficient ?1-chain type I collagen because of frameshift, nonsense, or splice site mutations in COL1A1 or COL1A2. This report is of a Chinese daughter and mother who had both experienced two bone fractures. Because skeletal fragility is predominantly inherited, we focused on identifying mutations in COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes. A novel mutation in COL1A1, c.700delG, was detected by genomic DNA sequencing in the mother and daughter, but not in their relatives. The identification of this mutation led to the conclusion that they were affected by mild OI type I. Open reading frame analysis indicated that this frameshift mutation would truncate ?1-chain type I collagen at residue p263 (p.E234KfsX264), while the wild-type protein would contain 1,464 residues. The clinical data were consistent with the patients' diagnosis of mild OI type I caused by haploinsufficiency of ?1-chain type I collagen. Combined with previous reports, identification of the novel mutation COL1A1-c.700delG in these patients suggests that additional genetic and environmental factors may influence the severity of OI.

Osteogenesis imperfecta IIC caused by a novel heterozygous mutation in the C-propeptide region of COL1A1.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta IIC (OI IIC), which is a rare variant of lethal OI that has been considered to be an autosomal recessive trait, is characterized by twisted, slender long bones with dense metaphyseal margins. Here, we report a typical case of OI IIC caused by a novel heterozygous mutation in the C-propeptide region of COL1A1. OI IIC seems to be caused by a dominant mutation of COL1A1.

A novel DHPLC-based procedure for the analysis of COL1A1 and COL1A2 mutations in osteogenesis imperfecta.

Project description:Approximately 90% of patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) exhibit dominant COL1A1 or COL1A2 mutations; however, molecular analysis is difficult because these genes span 51 and 52 exons, respectively. We devised a PCR-denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) procedure to analyze the COL1A1 or COL1A2 coding regions and validated it using 130 DNA samples from individuals without OI, 25 DNA samples from two cells to investigate the procedure's potential for preimplantation diagnosis, and DNA samples from 10 patients with OI. Three novel intronic variants in vitro were expressed using a minigene assay to assess their effects on splicing. The procedure is rapid, inexpensive, and reproducible. Analysis of samples from individuals without OI revealed six novel and some known polymorphisms useful for linkage diagnosis because of high heterozygosity. Analysis of two-cell samples confirmed the known genotype in 24 of 25 experiments; DNA failed to amplify in only one case. No incidence of allele dropout was recorded. DHPLC revealed six novel mutations, three of which were intronic, in all patients with OI, and these results were confirmed by means of COL1A1 and COL1A2 direct sequencing. Expression of intronic mutations demonstrated that variant 804 + 2_804 + 3delTG in intron 11 disrupts normal splicing, thereby leading to formation of two alternative products. Variants c.3046-4_3046-5dupCT (COL1A1) and c.891 + 77A>T (COL1A2) did not affect splicing. The described DHPLC protocol combined with the minigene assay may contribute to molecular diagnosis in OI. Moreover, this protocol will aid in counseling about prenatal and preimplantation diagnosis.

Mutational analysis of COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes among Estonian osteogenesis imperfecta patients.

Project description:BackgroundOsteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare bone disorder. In 90% of cases, OI is caused by mutations in the COL1A1/2 genes, which code procollagen α1 and α2 chains. The main aim of the current research was to identify the mutational spectrum of COL1A1/2 genes in Estonian patients. The small population size of Estonia provides a unique chance to explore the collagen I mutational profile of 100% of OI families in the country.MethodsWe performed mutational analysis of peripheral blood gDNA of 30 unrelated Estonian OI patients using Sanger sequencing of COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes, including all intron-exon junctions and 5'UTR and 3'UTR regions, to identify causative OI mutations.ResultsWe identified COL1A1/2 mutations in 86.67% of patients (26/30). 76.92% of discovered mutations were located in the COL1A1 (n = 20) and 23.08% in the COL1A2 (n = 6) gene. Half of the COL1A1/2 mutations appeared to be novel. The percentage of quantitative COL1A1/2 mutations was 69.23%. Glycine substitution with serine was the most prevalent among missense mutations. All qualitative mutations were situated in the chain domain of pro-α1/2 chains.ConclusionOur study shows that among the Estonian OI population, the range of collagen I mutations is quite high, which agrees with other described OI cohorts of Northern Europe. The Estonian OI cohort differs due to the high number of quantitative variants and simple missense variants, which are mostly Gly to Ser substitutions and do not extend the chain domain of COL1A1/2 products.

High bone mass phenotype in a cohort of patients with Osteogenesis Imperfecta caused due to BMP1 and C-propeptide cleavage variants in COL1A1.

Project description:ObjectivesOsteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a heterogeneous condition mainly characterised by bone fragility; extra-skeletal features in OI include blue sclerae, dentinogenesis imperfecta, skin laxity and joint hyper-extensibility. Most patients with OI are thought to have a low bone mass but contrary to expectations there are certain forms of OI with high bone mass which this study explores in further detail.MethodA cohort of n = 6 individuals with pathogenic variants in BMP1 and the C-propeptide cleavage variants in COL1A1 were included in this study. Detailed clinical and radiological phenotyping was done and correlated with genotype to identify patterns of clinical presentation and fracture history in this cohort of patients. This data was compared to previously reported literature in this group.Results2 patients with BMP1 and 4 patients with pathogenic variants in C-propeptide region in COL1A1 were deep-phenotyped as part of this study and 1 patient with C-propeptide variant in COL1A1, showed low bone mineral density. In those with an elevated bone mineral density, this became even more apparent on bisphosphonate therapy. Patients in this cohort had variable clinical presentation ranging from antenatal presentation to more of an insidious course resulting in later confirmation of genetic diagnosis up to 19 years of age.ConclusionsPatients with pathogenic variants in the C-propeptide region of COL1A1/A2 and BMP1 appear to have a high bone mass phenotype with increased sensitivity to bisphosphonate therapy. It is important to closely monitor patients with these genotypes to assess their response to therapy and tailor their treatment regime accordingly.
