Case Report: Diabetes in Chinese Bloom Syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Bloom syndrome (BS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that causes several endocrine abnormalities. So far, only one BS pedigree, without diabetes, has been reported in the Chinese population. We presented the first case of BS with diabetes in the Chinese population and explored the clinical spectrum associated with endocrine. Possible molecular mechanisms were also investigated. Our study indicated that BS may be one rare cause of diabetes in the Chinese population. We also found a new pathogenic sequence variant in BLM (BLM RecQ like helicase gene)(NM_000057.4) c.692T>G, which may expand the spectrum of BLM variants.

Case Report: Fanconi-Bickel Syndrome in a Chinese Girl With Diabetes and Severe Hypokalemia.

Project description:Fanconi-Bickel syndrome (FBS) is a rare autosomal recessive carbohydrate metabolism disorder. The main symptoms of FBS are hepatomegaly, nephropathy, postprandial hyperglycemia, fasting hypoglycemia, and growth retardation. Hypokalemia is a rare clinical feature in patients with FBS. In this study, we present a neonate suffering from FBS. She presented with hypokalemia, dysglycaemia, glycosuria, hepatomegaly, abnormality of liver function, and brain MRI. Trio whole-exome sequencing (WES) and Sanger sequencing were performed to identify the causal gene variants. A compound heterozygous mutation (NM_000340.2; p. Trp420*) of SLC2A2 was identified. Here, we report a patient with FBS in a consanguineous family with diabetes, severe hypokalemia, and other typical FBS symptoms. Patients with common clinical features may be difficult to diagnose just by phenotypes in the early stage of life, but WES could be an important tool. We also discuss the use of insulin in patients with FBS and highlight the importance of a continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS), not only in diagnosis but also to avoid hypoglycemic events.

Genoa syndrome and central diabetes insipidus: a case report.

Project description:Genoa syndrome was first described by Camera et al in 1993 in two patients with semilobar holoprosencephaly (HPE), craniosynostosis and abnormal small hands with cone-shaped epiphyses and hypoplastic terminal phalanges of fingers (OMIM: 601370). In 2001, Lapunzina et al reported a case of craniosynostosis and HPE associated with several other malformations and suggested that these findings could be attributed to a severe form of Genoa syndrome or to a newly recognized syndrome. Endocrinopathies in association with HPE are frequently reported in the literature. Diabetes insipidus, hypothyroidism, hypocortisolism, and growth hormone deficiency are frequently associated with HPE. We here report a case of semilobar HPE, craniosynostosis and cleft lip/palate, possibly a case of Genoa syndrome, associated with central diabetes insipidus.

Atypical diabetes arising from SHORT syndrome: a case report.

Project description:Short stature, joint hyperextension, ocular hypotension, Rieger abnormalities, and delayed tooth eruption (SHORT) syndrom is a rare primary autosomal dominant genetic disorder mainly caused by pathogenic loss-of-function variants in the phosphoinositide-3-kinase regulatory subunit 1 (PIK3R1) gene. We report the case of a Chinese adult female patient with SHORT syndrome, carrying a PIK3R1 gene variant (c.1945C > T), who developed abnormal glucose metabolism and severe postprandial insulin resistance over 9 years. Although there are currently no established treatment guidelines for insulin resistance in patients with SHORT syndrome, we implemented a comprehensive treatment plan, including lifestyle interventions, metformin, and voglibose for glucose control. After 6 months of continuous observation, the patient's blood glucose levels and insulin resistance improved significantly. This case study provides useful insights for future treatment strategies.

Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1B mutation in a Chinese family with renal cysts and diabetes syndrome: A case report.

Project description:BackgroundRenal cysts and diabetes (RCAD) syndrome is an autosomal dominant diabetic renal disease. Precise molecular diagnosis of RCAD syndrome has proven valuable for understanding its mechanism and personalized therapy.Case summaryA RCAD patient and her family were studied to investigate potential responsible genes by the whole exome sequencing (WES). Candidate pathogenic variants were validated by Sanger sequencing. The clinical characteristics of RCAD patient were collected from medical records. Unlike those typical RCAD patients, we observed renal manifestation and prediabetes phenotype, but not reproductive organ phenotype and hypomagnesaemia. A novel 7-bp deletion mutation in exon 4 of the hepatocyte nuclear factor 1B, NM_000458: c.882_888del (p.V294fs), was identified by WES and confirmed by Sanger sequencing.ConclusionThis novel mutation identified in a Chinese family with RCAD syndrome might be the molecular pathogenic basis of this disorder.

Werner syndrome presenting as early-onset diabetes: A case report.

Project description:Werner syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive premature progeroid syndrome caused by mutations in the WRN gene. It is characterized by early onset of age-related diseases, such as cataracts, atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis and malignancies, in which diabetes often onset in patients' 30-40s. Herein, we report a Chinese patient with Werner syndrome with uncommon early-onset diabetes at 18 years-of-age, who had low body mass index, insulin resistance, negative antibodies of diabetes and early onset of cataracts. Genome sequencing and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction confirm the diagnosis. A novel heterozygous splice-site mutation in the WRN gene (c.1270-2A>T) was identified. The present case reminds clinicians that when young diabetes patients are encountered, if they are accompanied by premature aging, attention should be paid to identifying the possibility of Werner syndrome based on diagnostic criteria.

A unique case of Bloom syndrome with a combination of genetic hits: A lesson from trio‑based exome sequencing: A case report.

Project description:Pathogenic variants affecting the BLM gene are responsible for the manifestation of extremely rare cancer‑predisposing Bloom syndrome. The present study reports on a case of an infant with a congenital hypotrophy, short stature and abnormal facial appearance. Initially she was examined using a routine molecular diagnostic algorithm, including the cytogenetic analysis of her karyotype, microarray analysis and methylation‑specific MLPA, however, she remained undiagnosed on a molecular level. Therefore, she and her parents were enrolled in the project of trio‑based exome sequencing (ES) using Human Core Exome kit. She was revealed as a carrier of an extremely rare combination of causative sequence variants altering the BLM gene (NM_000057.4), c.1642C>T and c.2207_2212delinsTAGATTC in the compound heterozygosity, resulting in a diagnosis of Bloom syndrome. Simultaneously, a mosaic loss of heterozygosity of chromosome 11p was detected and then confirmed as a borderline imprinting center 1 hypermethylation on chromosome 11p15. The diagnosis of Bloom syndrome and mosaic copy‑number neutral loss of heterozygosity of chromosome 11p increases a lifetime risk to develop any types of malignancy. This case demonstrates the trio‑based ES as a complex approach for the molecular diagnostics of rare pediatric diseases.

Case report: Prenatal diagnosis of Kagami-Ogata syndrome in a Chinese family.

Project description:The aim of this work was to explore the genetic cause of the proband (Ⅲ2) presenting with polyhydramnios and gastroschisis. Copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq), methylation-specific multiplex PCR (MS-PCR), and methylation-specific multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MS-MLPA) were used to characterize the genetic etiology. CNV-seq revealed a deletion of 732.26 kb at 14q32.2q32.31 in the proband (Ⅲ2) and its mother (Ⅱ2). MS-PCR showed the maternal allele was missing in the proband, while paternal allele was missing in its mother. MS-MLPA showed deletion of the DLK1, MEG3, MIR380, and RTL1 genes of both the proband and its mother. MEG3 imprinting gene methylation increased in the proband, while decreased in its mother. It was indicated that a maternally transmitted deletion was responsible for Kagami-Ogata syndrome in the proband (Ⅲ2), and the de novo paternal deletion resulted in Temple syndrome in the mother (Ⅱ2). Prenatal diagnosis was provided at 17+3 weeks of pregnancy on the mother's fourth pregnancy (Ⅲ4). Fortunately, the karyotype and single-nucleotide polymorphism array (SNP array) results were normal. The current investigation provided the detection methods for imprinted gene diseases, expanded the phenotype spectrum of the disease, and obtained the insight into the diagnosis, prenatal diagnosis, and genetic counseling of the disease.
