Introduction. Pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1a is caused by GNAS mutations leading to target organ resistance to multiple hormones rather than parathyroid hormone, resulting not only in hypocalcemia, but also in Albright’s hereditary osteodystrophy phenotype. Materials and Methods. DNA sequencing of the GNAS gene identified a novel heterozygous mutation in peripheral blood leukocytes in the family presented in this case report. Results. We present a case of a 25-year-old woman with pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1a admitted with seizures, whose family presents an autosomal dominant transmission of a novel heterozygous GNAS mutation (c.524_530+3del). Conclusion. Pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1a is mostly caused by inactivating GNAS mutations that have been gradually reported in the literature that lead to a typical and complex clinical phenotype and resistance to multiple hormones. The deletion caused by the mutation identified in the presented case has not been reported previously.

Autosomal Recessive Pattern

Abstract Hemochromatosis is a common disorder characterized by excess iron absorption and accumulation of iron in tissues. Usually hemochromatosis is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern and is caused by mutations in the HFE gene. Less common non-HFE–related forms of hemochromatosis have been reported and are caused by mutations in the transferrin receptor 2 gene and in a gene localized to chromosome 1q. Autosomal dominant forms of hemochromatosis have also been described. Recently, 2 mutations in theferroportin1 gene, which encodes the iron transport protein ferroportin1, have been implicated in families with autosomal dominant hemochromatosis from the Netherlands and Italy. We report the finding of a novel mutation (V162del) in ferroportin1 in an Australian family with autosomal dominant hemochromatosis. We propose that this mutation disrupts the function of the ferroportin1 protein, leading to impaired iron homeostasis and iron overload.

Strokes are the main cause of death and long-term disability worldwide. A stroke is a heterogeneous multi-factorial condition, caused by a combination of environmental and genetic factors. Monogenic disorders account for about 1% to 5% of all stroke cases. The most common single-gene diseases connected with strokes are cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) Fabry disease, mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactacidosis, and stroke (MELAS) and a lot of single-gene diseases associated particularly with cerebral small-vessel disease, such as COL4A1 syndrome, cerebral autosomal recessive arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CARASIL), and Hereditary endotheliopathy with retinopathy, nephropathy, and stroke (HERNS). In this article the clinical phenotype for the most important single-gene disorders associated with strokes are presented. The monogenic causes of a stroke are rare, but early diagnosis is important in order to provide appropriate therapy when available.

Pseudoachondroplasia (PSACH) is an autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasia with an estimated incidence of ~1/60000 that is characterized by disproportionate short stature, brachydactyly, joint laxity, and early-onset osteoarthritis. COMP encodes the cartilage oligomeric matrix protein, which is expressed predominantly in the extracellular matrix (ECM) surrounding the cells that make up cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. Mutations in COMP are known to give rise to PSACH. In this study, we identified a novel nucleotide mutation (NM_000095.2: c.1317C>G, p.D439E) in COMP responsible for PSACH in a Chinese family by employing whole-exome sequencing (WES) and built the structure model of the mutant protein to clarify its pathogenicity. The novel mutation cosegregated with the affected individuals. Our study expands the spectrum of COMP mutations and further provides additional genetic testing information for other PSACH patients.

Reversible Splenial Lesion Syndrome

Abstract Background: Reversible splenial lesion syndrome (RESLES) is a clinico-radiological syndrome characterized by the presence of reversible lesions specifically involving the splenium of the corpus callosum (SCC). The cause of RESLES is unknown. However, infectious-related mild encephalitis/encephalopathy (MERS) with a reversible splenial lesion remains the most common cause of reversible splenial lesions. Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by a partial deficiency of porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD), the third enzyme in the heme biosynthetic pathway. It can affect the autonomic, peripheral, and central nervous system. Result: In this study, we report a 20-year-old woman with AIP who presented with MRI manifestations suggestive of RESLES, she had a novel HMBS nonsense mutation, a G to A mutation in base 594, which changed tryptophan to a stop codon (W198*). Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge, this is only one published case of RELES associated with AIP.

Tbx5 Gene

Background: Holt–Oram syndrome (HOS) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations of TBX5 gene.Case presentation: We report a fetus with HOS diagnosed sonographically at 23 weeks of gestation. The fetal parents are non-consanguineous. The fetus exhibited short radius and ulna, inability to supinate the hands, absence of the right thumb, and heart ventricular septal defect (VSD), while the fetal father exhibited VSD and short radius and ulna only. Fetal brother had cubitus valgus and thumb adduction, except for VSD, short radius and ulna. The pregnancy was terminated. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) revealed a novel mutation in the TBX5 (c.510+1G>A) in the fetus inherited from the father. The variant (c.510+1G>A) occurs at splice donor and may alter TBX5 gene function by impact on splicing. It was not previously reported in China.Conclusion: Our case reported a novel mutation in TBX5, which expanded the known genetic variants associated with HOS.
