Congenital diarrheal disorders (CDDs) are early-onset enteropathies generally inherited as autosomal recessive traits. Most patients with CDDs require rapid diagnosis as they need immediate and specific therapy to avoid a poor prognosis, but their clinical picture is often overlapping with a myriad of nongenetic diarrheal diseases. We developed a next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel for the analysis of 92 CDD-related genes, by which we analyzed patients suspect for CDD, among which were (i) three patients with sucrose-isomaltase deficiency; (ii) four patients with microvillous inclusion disease; (iii) five patients with congenital tufting enteropathy; (iv) eight patients with glucose-galactose malabsorption; (v) five patients with congenital chloride diarrhea. In all cases, we identified the mutations in the disease-gene, among which were several novel mutations for which we defined pathogenicity using a combination of bioinformatic tools. Although CDDs are rare, all together, they have an incidence of about 1%. Considering that the clinical picture of these disorders is often confusing, a CDD-related multigene NGS panel contributes to unequivocal and rapid diagnosis, which also reduces the need for invasive procedures.

AbstractSmoldering myeloma (SMM) is associated with a high-risk of progression to myeloma (MM). We report the results of a study of 82 patients with both targeted sequencing that included a capture of the immunoglobulin and MYC regions. By comparing these results to newly diagnosed myeloma (MM) we show fewer NRAS and FAM46C mutations together with fewer adverse translocations, del(1p), del(14q), del(16q), and del(17p) in SMM consistent with their role as drivers of the transition to MM. KRAS mutations are associated with a shorter time to progression (HR 3.5 (1.5–8.1), p = 0.001). In an analysis of change in clonal structure over time we studied 53 samples from nine patients at multiple time points. Branching evolutionary patterns, novel mutations, biallelic hits in crucial tumour suppressor genes, and segmental copy number changes are key mechanisms underlying the transition to MM, which can precede progression and be used to guide early intervention strategies.

AbstractAn 11-year-old Korean boy presented with short stature, hip dysplasia, radial head dislocation, carpal coalition, genu valgum, and fixed patellar dislocation and was clinically diagnosed with Steel syndrome. Scrutinizing the trio whole-exome sequencing data revealed novel compound heterozygous mutations of COL27A1 (c.[4229_4233dup]; [3718_5436del], p.[Gly1412Argfs*157];[Gly1240_Lys1812del]) in the proband, which were inherited from heterozygous parents. The maternal mutation was a large deletion encompassing exons 38–60, which was challenging to detect.
