Application of array-CGH for the detection of genomic rearrangements responsible for syndromic mental retardation of unknown cause

ABSTRACT: Here we describe an interstitial pure duplication of 19p13.3 that was initially considered as a de novo alteration, in a patient with intellectual disability studied by array-CGH. The finding of the same chromosomal alteration in a first-degree cousin of this patient led us to investigate the presence of insertional translocations. An intrachromosomal insertional translocation was found in at least three generations. Three intellectually disabled patients with the same duplication and multiples abortions among translocation carrier family members were found. A review of other published cases has allowed us to find three other cases with a similar pure duplication and some clinical findings present in all patients as intrauterine growth retardation, microcephaly, motor and speech delay, moderate to severe intellectual disability and dysmorphic features. These findings allow us to suggest the existence of a new microduplication syndrome in chromosomal region 19p13.3.

These findings allow us to suggest the existence of a new microduplication syndrome in chromosomal region 19p13.3. Whole genome array-CGH was performed on Agilent oligo-chip 44K (human genome CGH microarray G4410B from Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA) as recommended. The patientsM-bM-^@M-^Y DNA samples were tested against a pool of 10 sex-matched normal DNA samples, all of them (patients and normal controls) from our geographical area. Scanned images were quantified using Agilent Feature Extraction Software (v9.0). The results were analyzed using Agilent Genomic Workbench software. Annotations have been obtained from UCSC (http://genome.ucsc.edu) based on human genome build GRCh37/hg19.

NONO mutations cause syndromic intellectual disability and inhibitory synaptic defects

Project description:Identifying causes of sporadic intellectual disability remains a considerable medical challenge. Here, we demonstrate that null mutations in the NONO gene, a member of the Drosophila Behavior Human Splicing (DBHS) protein family, are a novel cause of X-linked syndromic intellectual disability. Comparing humans to Nono-deficient mice revealed related behavioral and craniofacial anomalies, as well as global transcriptional dysregulation. Nono-deficient mice also showed deregulation of a large number of synaptic transcripts, causing a disorganization of inhibitory synapses, with impaired postsynaptic scaffolding of gephyrin. Alteration of gephyrin clustering could be rescued by over-expression of Gabra2 in NONO-compromised neurons. These findings link NONO to intellectual disability and first highlight the key role of DBHS proteins in functional organization of GABAergic synapses.

Complex Balanced Translocation Disrupting TCF4 and Altering TCF4 Isoform Expression Segregates as Mild Autosomal Dominant Intellectual Disability

Project description:Mutations of TCF4, which encodes a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, cause Pitt-Hopkins syndrome (PTHS) via multiple genetic mechanisms. TCF4 is a complex locus expressing multiple transcripts by alternative splicing and use of multiple promoters. We report a three-generation family segregating mild intellectual disability with an apparently balanced chromosomal translocation t(14;18)(q23.3;q21.2) that we characterized as a complex unbalanced karyotype 46,XY,der(14)del(14)(q23.3q23.3)t(14;18)(q23.3;q21.2)del(18)(q21.2q21.2) del(18)(q21.2q21.2)inv(18)(q21.2q21.2),der(18)t(14 ;18)(q23.3;q21.2) disrupting TCF4. Using whole genome sequencing, transcriptome sequencing, qRT-PCR and nCounter analysis, we characterized the breakpoint junctions from derivative chromosomes and gene expression at the TCF4 locus. Our analyses revealed that family members segregating mild intellectual disability with the complex chromosome aberration had normal expression of genes along chromosomes 14 or 18 and no marked changes in expression of genes other than TCF4. Affected individuals had 12-33 fold higher mRNA levels of TCF4 than did unaffected controls or individuals with PTHS. Increased levels of TCF4 transcript variants originating distal to the translocation breakpoint, not the fusion transcript generated by the derivative chromosome, contributed to this increased. Although validation in additional patients is required, our findings suggest that the dysmorphic features and severe intellectual disability characteristic of PTHS is partially rescued by overexpression of short TCF4 transcripts encoding a nuclear localization signal, a transcription activation domain, and the basic helix-loop-helix domain.

11p11.12p12 duplication in a family with intellectual disability and craniofacial anomalies

Project description:Potocki-Shaffer syndrome (PSS) is a rare contiguous gene deletion syndrome marked by haploinsufficiency of genes in chromosomal region 11p11.2p12. Approximately 50 cases of PSS have been reported; however, a syndrome with a PSS-like clinical phenotype caused by 11p11.12p12 duplication has not yet been reported. We first report the 11p11.12p12 duplication in a family with intellectual disability and craniofacial anomalies. 11p11.12p12 duplication syndrome was identified by karyotype analysis. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis clarified the location of the chromosomal variations, which was confirmed by chromosome microarray analysis (CMA). Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed to exclude single nucleotide variations (SNVs). The raw data of NGS analysis and WES have been submitted to SRA, the accession number is PRJNA713823.

Reversal of MECP2 duplication syndrome using genetic rescue and antisense oligonucleotides [ASO time point 1]

Project description:MECP2 duplication syndrome, a childhood neurological disorder characterized by autism, intellectual disability, motor dysfunction, anxiety and epilepsy, is caused by a duplication on chromosome Xq28 spanning the MECP2 gene that results in doubling of MeCP2 levels. MECP2 overexpression in mice causes neurobehavioral and electroencephalographic defects similar to those of human patients, but the gross anatomy of the brain remains unaffected. We hypothesized that MECP2 duplication syndrome would be reversible and tested two methods to restore MeCP2 levels to normal: conditional genetic recombination and antisense oligonucleotide therapy. Both approaches rescued molecular, physiological and behavioral features of adult symptomatic mice. Antisense therapy also restored normal MeCP2 levels in lymphoblastoid cells from MECP2 duplication patients, in a dose-dependent manner. Our data indicate that antisense oligonucleotides could provide a viable therapeutic approach for human MECP2 duplication syndrome as well as other disorders involving copy number gains.
