摘要:
目的 Mohr-Tranebjaerg综合征(MTS)典型症状包括耳聋、肌张力障碍等,本病非常罕见,遵循X连锁遗传模式。本研究对一个罕见MTS家系进行遗传学分析。 方法 收集罕见MTS家系临床资料,同时对先证者Ⅲ6进行全外显子组测序检测,对家族中其他患病个体Ⅲ5和健康人Ⅰ1、Ⅰ2、Ⅱ1、Ⅱ5、Ⅱ7、Ⅱ8、Ⅲ7进行家系验证,将基因检测结果与临床表现反复核实比对。 结果 家族中患者表现为较早期出现的耳聋, 多个患病成员随着年龄增长合并肌张力障碍、精神情绪异常。全外显子组测序检测提示先证者Ⅲ6 TIMM8A (NM_004085.3,又称DDP1)基因内含子存在c.133-2delA变异,目前评级为可能致病(LP)。同时在患病个体Ⅲ5及健康女性Ⅰ1、Ⅱ5、Ⅱ7检出此变异。 结论 TIMM8A检出变异所致MTS与家系患病者临床表现高度吻合,符合家系共分离,是这个罕见MTS患病家族的分子病因。除耳聋外,其他症状在家族中不同个体中可存在差异。针对此类X连锁疾病的基因诊断,还可以明确女性杂合子,给予遗传咨询和生育指导,从而帮助家族成员制订科学的家庭计划。 -

Abstract:Objective Mohr-Tranebjaerg syndrome (MTS) is a rare X-linked neurodegenerative disorder which usually involving hearing impairment, gradual dystonia, and other symptoms. In this study, we perform analyzed the genetic makeup of a family with this rare Mohr-Tranebjaerg syndrome. Methods We collected the clinical data of the family, did the whole exome sequencing on the proband Ⅲ6 with a rare mutation, and verified the mutation in another affected family member Ⅲ5 and unaffected members Ⅰ1, Ⅰ2, Ⅱ1, Ⅱ5, Ⅱ7, Ⅱ8, Ⅲ7. Results The patients in the family all showed early-onset deafness. More than a couple of affected male members have dystonia with/without mental disorders. Genetic testing results showed the proband Ⅲ6 had a c.133-2delA in TIMM8A (NM_ 004085.3, DDP1), highly likely pathogenic(LP). This variation was detected in affected Ⅲ5 as well as the unaffected females Ⅰ1, Ⅱ5, Ⅱ7. Conclusions MTS caused by the rare TIMM8A mutation, the molecular etiology of the family with this rare disease, is highly consistent with the clinical manifestations and segregation. Other than the deafness, other symptoms varied among the affected family members. Genetic diagnosis for such X-linked diseases can also identify female heterozygotes. Genetic and reproduction counseling can help families in the family planning. -
