摘要
目的:对KCNQ4基因新突变耳聋患者进行基因型表型相关性分析,为患者及家庭提供精准的遗传咨询。方法:纳入1807956(5代34人)和1707806(3代12人)两个耳聋大家系,应用二代测序技术检测先证者致病基因,并对家系内成员进行Sanger测序验证。根据美国医学遗传学与基因组学会(ACMG)指南,结合临床资料、基因检测、生物信息分析、电生理实验等对突变位点进行致病性分析,为患者提供遗传咨询。结果:1807956家系先证者为育龄女性,15岁发病,携带KCNQ4 c.808T>G p.Y270D变异,双耳极重度听力下降,中频听力下降更为明显;1707806家系先证者为青少年,11岁发病,携带KCNQ4 c.733G>A p.G245R变异,双耳中重度听力下降,以高频为主。两个家系每一代均有患者,患者无性别差异,双亲之一也为患者,符合常染色体显性遗传发病特点。两个变异均为错义突变,在家系中共分离,正常人群中无分布。生物信息分析工具预测变异有害,变异位点在不同物种中高度保守,电生理实验提示变异离子通道功能受损。根据ACMG指南,判定KCNQ4 c.808T>G变异为致病的,KCNQ4 c.733G>A变异为可能致病的。结论:新发现的两个突变位点为国际首次报道,患者听力下降特点具有异质性,丰富了KCNQ4基因变异谱及临床表型,为患者及家庭提供了可靠的遗传咨询。
Objective:To provide accurate genetic counseling,the genotype-phenotype correlation of the patients with KCNQ4mutations was analyzed.Methods:Two hearing loss families,1807956(a five-generation family with 34 members)and 1707806(a three-generation family with 12 members)were recruited.The candidate variants were detected by next generation sequencing technology.Sanger sequencing was performed to verify the co-segregation of the phenotype in the recruited family members.According to American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics(ACMG)guideline,combined with clinical data,genetic testing,bioinformatic analysis and electrophysiological experiments,the pathogenicity of mutations was analyzed and genetic counseling was provided for family members.Results:The proband of family 1807956 was a pregnant woman,who carried KCNQ4 c.808 T>G p.Y270 D and developed hearing loss at the age of 15 years old,she had profound hearing loss in both ears,with middle-frequency highly affected.The proband of family 1707806 was an adolescent whose onset age was 11 years old,carrying KCNQ4 c.733 G>A p.G245 R,he presented with bilateral moderately severe hearing loss.The inheritance pattern of these two families were autosomal dominant inheritance.The two variants were missense mutations that were co-segregation in the two families and were not found in normal population.The mutations predicted by bioinformatic analysis tools were damaging and highly conserved in different species.Electrophysiological experiments showed that the function of the mutant ion channels was impaired.According to ACMG guideline,KCNQ4 c.808 T>G was pathogenic,and KCNQ4 c.733 G>A was likely pathogenic.Conclusion:The two mutations in this research were reported for the first time.The hearing loss of the patients showed heterogeneity,enriching the variation spectrum and clinical phenotype of KCNQ4.
