In order to ensure genetic diagnosis, all 23 coding exons of the PTCH gene were amplifie d from genomic DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequenced. Mutations w ere found in all eight patients with NBCCS. The mutations detected in this study include one insertion/deletion mutation, one 1-bp insertion, two 1-bp deletio ns, one nonsense mutation and two missense mutations. None of the mutations have been previously reported. Five mutations caused premature stop codons that are predicted to result in a truncated protein. In the two missense mutations, the s trong basic residue arginine was substituted by serine or glycine in highly cons erved components of the putative transmembrane domain of PTCH, and these mutatio ns may therefore affect the conformation and function of the PTCH protein. No ph enotype-genotyperelationshipswerefoundintheJapanese NBCCS patients, consistent with results of previous studies on NBCCS in African-American and Caucasian pat ients.展开更多

文摘目的探讨PTCH1基因rs28 377 268位点多态性与骨质疏松性椎体压缩骨折患者骨代谢标志物的关系。方法选取2016年1月至2016年6月我科脊柱组收治的骨质疏松性椎体压缩骨折患者(骨折组)和脊柱退行性病变骨质疏松患者(对照组)各80例。采用SNa Pshot法进行SNP分型,化学发光法测定骨代谢标志物:骨钙素(osteocalcin,OC)、Ⅰ型胶原羧基端肽β特殊序列(beta-crosslaps of type I collagen cross-linked C-telopeptide,β-CTX)、Ⅰ型前胶原氨基端前肽(procollagen I N-terminal propeptide,P1NP)、25-羟维生素D(25-hydroxyvitamin D,25(OH)D)、甲状旁腺激素(parathyroid hormone,PTH)浓度。比较两组等位基因频率、基因型频率分布及两组骨代谢标志物浓度差异,并分析PTCH1基因rs28 377 268位点多态性与骨代谢标志物浓度的关系。结果骨折组和对照组G、T等位基因频率均为80%、20%,两组GG、GT、TT基因型频率分别为66.25%、27.50%、6.25%和62.50%、35.00%、2.50%,无统计学意义(P>0.05)。骨折组中血清OC、PINP、β-CTX及25(OH)D浓度较对照组均无统计学意义,而PTH浓度明显高于对照组(P<0.05)。血清OC、PINP、β-CTX及25(OH)D浓度在GG、GT、TT3种基因型之间亦无统计学意义(P>0.05),血清PTH浓度在GT、TT基因型中均高于GG基因型,其中TT基因型显著高于GG、GT基因型(P<0.05)。结论 PTCH1基因rs28 377 268位点在骨质疏松患者中G、T等位基因的表达频率分别为80%、20%,rs28377268-T等位基因高表达可能间接升高血清PTH浓度,促进骨质疏松发生,增加椎体脆性骨折风险。
