conferenceObject RESPONSE TO RHGH THERAPY IN SHORT CHILDREN BORN AT VERY LOW BIRTH WEIGHT(2023) MALAQUIAS, A. C.; HOMMA, T.; DANTAS, M. C. B.; FREIRE, B. L.; ALBUQUE, E. V. A.; ARNHOLD, I. J. P.; VASQUES, G. A.; JORGE, A. A. L.- Combined pituitary hormone deficiency caused by PROP1 mutations: update 20 years post-discovery(2019) CORREA, Fernanda A.; NAKAGUMA, Marilena; MADEIRA, Joao L. O.; NISHI, Mirian Y.; ABRAO, Milena G.; JORGE, Alexander A. L.; CARVALHO, Luciani R.; ARNHOLD, Ivo J. P.; MENDONCA, Berenice B.The first description of patients with combined pituitary hormone deficiencies (CPHD) caused by PROP1 mutations was made 20 years ago. Here we updated the clinical and genetic characteristics of patients with PROP1 mutations and summarized the phenotypes of 14 patients with 7 different pathogenic PROP1 mutations followed at the Hospital das Clinicas of the University of Sao Paulo. In addition to deficiencies in GH, TSH, PRL and gonadotropins some patients develop late ACTH deficiency. Therefore, patients with PROP1 mutations require permanent surveillance. On magnetic resonance imaging, the pituitary stalk is normal, and the posterior lobe is in the normal position. The anterior lobe in patients with PROP1 mutations is usually hypoplastic but may be normal or even enlarged. Bi-allelic PROP1 mutations are currently the most frequently recognized genetic cause of CPHD worldwide. PROP1 defects occur more frequently among offspring of consanguineous parents and familial cases, but they also occur in sporadic cases, especially in countries in which the prevalence of PROP1 mutations is relatively high. We classified all reported PROP1 variants described to date according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics and the Association for Molecular Pathology (ACMG-AMP) guidelines: 29 were pathogenic, 2 were likely pathogenic, and 2 were of unknown significance. An expansion of the phenotype of patients with PROP1 mutations was observed since the first description 20 years ago: variable anterior pituitary size, different pathogenic mutations, and late development of ACTH deficiency. PROP1 mutations are the most common cause of autosomal recessive CPHD with a topic posterior pituitary lobe.
article 6 Citação(ões) na Scopus Mutations in insulin-like growth factor receptor 1 gene (IGF1R) resulting in intrauterine and postnatal growth retardation(2011) LEAL, Andrea de Castro; CANTON, Ana Pinheiro Machado; MONTENEGRO, Luciana Ribeiro; COUTINHO, Debora Cabral; ARNHOLD, Ivo Jorge Prado; JORGE, Alexander Augusto de LimaApproximately 10% of children born small-for-gestational age (SGA) do not show spontaneous growth catch-up. The causes of this deficit in prenatal growth and its maintenance after birth are not completely known, in most cases. Over the past eight years, several heterozygous inactivating mutations and deletions in IGF1R gene have been reported, indicating the role of defects in the IGFs/IGF1R axis as a cause of growth deficit. It has been hypothesized that at least 2.5% of children born SGA may have IGF1R gene defects. The clinical presentation of these patients is highly variable in the severity of growth retardation and hormonal parameters. In the most evident cases, patients have microcephaly, mild cognitive impairment and high levels of IGF-1, associated with short stature of prenatal onset. This review will describe the clinical, molecular and treatment of short stature with hrGH of children with mutations in the IGF1R gene.

R.; MENDONCA, Berenice B.; ARNHOLD, Ivo J. P.; JORGE, Alexander A. L.Background: There is great interindividual variability in the response to GH therapy. Ascertaining genetic factors can improve the accuracy of growth response predictions. Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)-2 is an intracellular negative regulator of GH receptor (GHR) signaling. Objective: The objective of the study was to assess the influence of a SOCS2 polymorphism (rs3782415) and its interactive effect with GHR exon 3 and -202 A/C IGFBP3 (rs2854744) polymorphisms on adult height of patients treated with recombinant human GH (rhGH). Design and Patients: Genotypes were correlated with adult height data of 65 Turner syndrome (TS) and 47 GH deficiency (GHD) patients treated with rhGH, by multiple linear regressions. Generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction was used to evaluate gene-gene interactions. Results: Baseline clinical data were indistinguishable among patients with different genotypes. Adult height SD scores of patients with at least one SOCS2 single-nucleotide polymorphism rs3782415-C were 0.7 higher than those homozygous for the T allele (P < .001). SOCS2 (P < .003), GHR-exon 3 (P = .016) and -202 A/C IGFBP3 (P = .013) polymorphisms, together with clinical factors accounted for 58% of the variability in adult height and 82% of the total height SD score gain. Patients harboring any two negative genotypes in these three different loci (homozygosity for SOCS2 T allele; the GHR exon 3 full-length allele and/or the -202C-IGFBP3 allele) were more likely to achieve an adult height at the lower quartile (odds ratio of 13.3; 95% confidence interval of 3.2-54.2, P = .0001). Conclusion: The SOCS2 polymorphism (rs3782415) has an influence on the adult height of children with TS and GHD after long-term rhGH therapy. Polymorphisms located in GHR, IGFBP3, and SOCS2 loci have an influence on the growth outcomes of TS and GHD patients treated with rhGH. The use of these genetic markers could identify among rhGH-treated patients those who are genetically predisposed to have less favorable outcomes.
- 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.
conferenceObject Copy Number Variants in Patients with Congenital Hypopituitarism Associated with Complex Phenotypes(2015) CORREA, F.; FRANCA, M.; CANTON, A.; OTTO, A.; COSTALONGA, E.; BRITO, V; CARVALHO, L.; COSTA, S.; ARNHOLD, I; JORGE, A.; ROSENBERG, C.; MENDONCA, B.- Diagnostic yield of a multigene sequencing approach in children classified as idiopathic short stature(2022) ANDRADE, Nathalia Liberatoscioli Menezes; FUNARI, Mariana Ferreira de Assis; MALAQUIAS, Alexsandra Christianne; COLLETT-SOLBERG, Paulo Ferrez; GOMES, Nathalia L. R. A.; SCALCO, Renata; DANTAS, Naiara Castelo Branco; REZENDE, Raissa C.; TIBURCIO, Angelica M. F. P.; SOUZA, Micheline A. R.; FREIRE, Bruna L.; V, Ana C. Krepischi; LONGUI, Carlos Alberto; LERARIO, Antonio Marcondes; ARNHOLD, Ivo J. P.; JORGE, Alexander A. L.; VASQUES, Gabriela AndradeObjectiveMost children with short stature remain without an etiologic diagnosis after extensive clinical and laboratory evaluation and are classified as idiopathic short stature (ISS). This study aimed to determine the diagnostic yield of a multigene analysis in children classified as ISS. Design and methodsWe selected 102 children with ISS and performed the genetic analysis as part of the initial investigation. We developed customized targeted panel sequencing, including all genes already implicated in the isolated short-stature phenotype. Rare and deleterious single nucleotide or copy number variants were assessed by bioinformatic tools. ResultsWe identified 20 heterozygous pathogenic (P) or likely pathogenic (LP) genetic variants in 17 of 102 patients (diagnostic yield = 16.7%). Three patients had more than one P/LP genetic alteration. Most of the findings were in genes associated with the growth plate differentiation: IHH (n = 4), SHOX (n = 3), FGFR3 (n = 2), NPR2 (n = 2), ACAN (n = 2), and COL2A1 (n = 1) or involved in the RAS/MAPK pathway: NF1 (n = 2), PTPN11 (n = 1), CBL (n = 1), and BRAF (n = 1). None of these patients had clinical findings to guide a candidate gene approach. The diagnostic yield was higher among children with severe short stature (35% vs 12.2% for height SDS <= or > -3; P = 0.034). The genetic diagnosis had an impact on clinical management for four children. ConclusionA multigene sequencing approach can determine the genetic etiology of short stature in up to one in six children with ISS, removing the term idiopathic from their clinical classification.
- PROP1 overexpression in corticotrophinomas: evidence for the role of PROP1 in the maintenance of cells committed to corticotrophic differentiation(2013) ARAUJO, Ricardo V.; CHANG, Claudia V.; CESCATO, Valter A. S.; FRAGOSO, Maria Candida B. V.; BRONSTEIN, Marcello D.; MENDONCA, Berenice B.; ARNHOLD, Ivo J. P.; CARVALHO, Luciani R. S.OBJECTIVE: The expression of transcription factors involved in early pituitary development, such as PROP1 and POU1F1, has been detected in pituitary adenoma tissues. In this study, we sought to characterize the transcriptional profiles of PROP1, POU1F1, and TBX19 in functioning and nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas in an attempt to identify their roles in tumorigenesis and hormone hypersecretion. METHODS: RT-qPCR analyses were performed to assess the transcriptional pattern of PROP1, POU1F1, TBX19, and hormone-producing genes in tissue samples of corticotrophinomas (n = 10), somatotrophinomas (n = 8), and nonfunctioning adenomas (n = 6). RESULTS: Compared with normal pituitary tissue, POU1F1 was overexpressed in somatotrophinomas by 3-fold. PROP1 expression was 18-fold higher in corticotrophinomas, 10-fold higher in somatotrophinomas, and 3-fold higher in nonfunctioning adenomas. TBX19 expression was 27-fold higher in corticotrophinomas. Additionally, the level of TBX19 mRNA positively correlated with that of pro-opiomelanocortin (r = 0.49, p = 0.014). CONCLUSIONS: Our data demonstrate that PROP1 is overexpressed in pituitary adenomas, mainly in corticotrophinomas. Together with previously published data showing that patients who harbor PROP1 loss-of-function mutations present a progressive decline in corticotrope function, our results support a role for PROP1 in pituitary tumor development and in the maintenance of cell lineages committed to corticotrophic differentiation.
