- Genetic Disorders in Prenatal Onset Syndromic Short Stature Identified by Exome Sequencing(2019) HOMMA, Thais Kataoka; FREIRE, Bruna Lucheze; KAWAHIRA, Rachel Sayuri Honjo; DAUBER, Andrew; FUNARI, Mariana Ferreira de Assis; LERARIO, Antonio Marcondes; NISHI, Mirian Yumie; ALBUQUERQUE, Edoarda Vasco de; VASQUES, Gabriela de Andrade; COLLETT-SOLBERG, Paulo Ferrez; SUGAYAMA, Sofia Mizuho Miura; BERTOLA, Debora Romeo; KIM, Chong Ae; ARNHOLD, Ivo Jorge Prado; MALAQUIAS, Alexsandra Christianne; JORGE, Alexander Augusto de LimaObjective To perform a prospective genetic investigation using whole exome sequencing of a group of patients with syndromic short stature born small for gestational age of unknown cause. Study design For whole exome sequencing analysis, we selected 44 children born small for gestational age with persistent short stature, and additional features, such as dysmorphic face, major malformation, developmental delay, and/or intellectual disability. Seven patients had negative candidate gene testing based on clinical suspicion and 37 patients had syndromic conditions of unknown etiology. Results Of the 44 patients, 15 (34%) had pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants in genes already associated with growth disturbance: COL2A1 (n = 2), SRCAP (n = 2), AFF4, ACTG1, ANKRD11, BCL11B, BRCA1, CDKN1C, GINS1, INPP5K, KIF11, KMT2A, and POC1A (n = 1 each). Most of the genes found to be deleterious participate in fundamental cellular processes, such as cell replication and DNA repair. Conclusions The rarity and heterogeneity of syndromic short stature make the clinical diagnosis difficult. Whole exome sequencing allows the diagnosis of previously undiagnosed patients with syndromic short stature.
- Partial androgen insensitivity syndrome due to somatic mosaicism of the androgen receptor(2018) BATISTA, Rafael Loch; RODRIGUES, Andresa De Santi; MACHADO, Aline Zamboni; NISHI, Mirian Yumie; CUNHA, Flavia Siqueira; SILVA, Rosana Barbosa; COSTA, Elaine M. F.; MENDONCA, Berenice B.; DOMENICE, SorahiaBackground: Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is the most frequent etiology of 46, XY disorders of sex development (DSDs), and it is an X-linked disorder caused by mutations in the androgen receptor (AR) gene. AIS patients present a broad phenotypic spectrum and individuals with a partial phenotype present with different degrees of undervirilized external genitalia. There are more than 500 different AR gene allelic variants reported to be linked to AIS, but the presence of somatic mosaicisms has been rarely identified. In the presence of a wild-type AR gene, a significant degree of spontaneous virilization at puberty can be observed, and it could influence the gender assignment, genetic counseling and the clinical and psychological management of these patients and the psychosexual outcomes of these patients are not known. Case presentation: In this study, we report two patients with AR allelic variants in heterozygous (c.382G>T and c.1769-1G>C) causing a partial AIS (PAIS) phenotype. The first patient was raised as female and she had undergone a gonadectomy at puberty. In both patients there was congruency between gender of rearing and gender identity and gender role. Conclusions: Somatic mosaicism is rare in AIS and nonsense AR variant allelic can cause partial AIS phenotype in this situation. Despite the risk of virilization and prenatal androgen exposure, the gender identity and gender role was concordant with sex of rearing in both cases. A better testosterone response can be expected in male individuals and this should be considered in the clinical management.

S.; FRANCA, Marcela M.; JORGE, Alexander A. L.; INOUE, Hiroshi; NISHI, Mirian Y.; LACERDA FILHO, Luiz de; AGUIAR-OLIVEIRA, Manuel H.; MENDONCA, Berenice B.; ARNHOLD, Ivo J. P.Background: Mutations in GH-releasing hormone receptor gene (GHRHR) are emerging as the most common cause of autosomal recessive isolated GH deficiency (IGHD). Objective: To search for GHRHR mutations in patients with familial or sporadic IGHD and to investigate founder effects in recurring mutations. Methods: The coding region of GHRHR was entirely amplified and sequenced from DNA of 18 patients with IGHD (16 unrelated) with topic posterior pituitary lobe on MRI. Haplotypes containing promoter SNPs and microsatellites flanking GHRHR were analyzed in patients with c.57+1G>A (IVS1+1G>A) mutation of our previously published kindred and also a Brazilian patient and 2 previously reported Japanese sisters with c. 1146G>A (p.E382E) mutation. Results: A novel homozygous intronic GHRHR c.752-1G>A (IVS7-1G>A) mutation, predicting loss of the constitutive splice acceptor site, was identified in two siblings with IGHD. A compound heterozygous c.[57+1G>A];[1146G>A] and a heterozygous c.527C>T (p.A176V) were found in two sporadic cases. Haplotype analysis provided evidence for a founder effect for the c.57+1G>A mutation and independent recurrence for the c.1146G>A mutation. Conclusion: We report a novel splice-disrupting mutation in GHRHR in 2 siblings and provide evidence that all c.57+1G>A (IVS1+1G>A) mutant chromosomes have the same haplotype ancestor, indicating the occurrence of a founder effect in Brazilian patients with IGHD.
