BACKGROUND RAS,BRAF,and mismatch repair(MMR)/microsatellite instability(MSI)are crucial biomarkers recommended by clinical practice guidelines for colorectal cancer(CRC).However,their characteristics and influencing factors in Chinese patients have not been thoroughly described.AIM To analyze the clinicopathological features of KRAS,NRAS,BRAF,and PIK3CA mutations and the DNA MMR status in CRC.METHODS We enrolled 2271 Chinese CRC patients at the China-Japan Friendship Hospital.MMR proteins were tested using immunohistochemical analysis,and the KRAS/NRAS/BRAF/PIK3CA mutations were determined using quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Microsatellite status was determined using an MSI detection kit.Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS software and logistic regression.RESULTS The KRAS,NRAS,BRAF,and PIK3CA mutations were detected in 44.6%,3.4%,3.7%,and 3.9% of CRC patients,respectively.KRAS mutations were more likely to occur in patients with moderate-to-high differentiation.BRAF mutations were more likely to occur in patients with right-sided CRC,poorly differentiated,or no perineural invasion.Deficient MMR(dMMR)was detected in 7.9% of all patients and 16.8% of those with mucinous adenocarcinomas.KRAS,NRAS,BRAF,and PIK3CA mutations were detected in 29.6%,1.1%,8.1%,and 22.3% of patients with dMMR,respectively.The dMMR was more likely to occur in patients with a family history of CRC,aged<50 years,right-sided CRC,poorly differentiated histology,no perineural invasion,and with carcinoma in situ,stage I,or stage II tumors.CONCLUSION This study analyzed the molecular profiles of KRAS,NRAS,BRAF,PIK3CA,and MMR/MSI in CRC,identifying key influencing factors,with implications for clinical management of CRC. 展开更多

BACKGROUND This study presents the clinical and genetic mutation characteristics of an unusual case of adult-onset diabetes mellitus occurring in adolescence,featuring a unique mutation in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma(PPARG)gene.Data Access Statement:Research data supporting this publication are available from the NN repository at www.NNN.org/download/.CASE SUMMARY The methodology employed entailed meticulous collection of comprehensive clinical data from the probands and their respective family members.Additionally,high-throughput sequencing was conducted to analyze the PPARG genes of the patient,her siblings,and their offspring.The results of this investigation revealed that the patient initially exhibited elevated blood glucose levels during pregnancy,accompanied by insulin resistance and hypertriglyceridemia.Furthermore,these strains displayed increased susceptibility to diabetic kidney disease without any discernible aggregation patterns.The results from the gene detection process demonstrated a heterozygous mutation of guanine(G)at position 284 in the coding region of exon 2 of PPARG,which replaced the base adenine(A)(exon2c.284A>Gp.Tyr95Cys).This missense mutation resulted in the substitution of tyrosine with cysteine at the 95th position of the translated protein.Notably,both of her siblings harbored a nucleotide heterozygous variation at the same site,and both were diagnosed with diabetes.CONCLUSION The PPARG gene mutation,particularly the p.Tyr95Cys mutation,may represent a newly identified subtype of maturity-onset diabetes of the young.This subtype is characterized by insulin resistance and lipid metabolism disorders. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Adaptor protein,phosphotyrosine interacting with PH domain and leucine zipper 1(APPL1)plays a crucial role in regulating insulin signaling and glucose metabolism.Mutations in the APPL1 gene have been associated with the development of maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 14(MODY14).Currently,only two mutations[c.1655T>A(p.Leu552*)and c.281G>A p.(Asp94Asn)]have been identified in association with this disease.Given the limited understanding of MODY14,it is imperative to identify additional cases and carry out comprehensive research on MODY14 and APPL1 mutations.AIM To assess the pathogenicity of APPL1 gene mutations in diabetic patients and to characterize the functional role of the APPL1 domain.METHODS Patients exhibiting clinical signs and a medical history suggestive of MODY were screened for the study.Whole exome sequencing was performed on the patients as well as their family members.The pathogenicity of the identified APPL1 variants was predicted on the basis of bioinformatics analysis.In addition,the pathogenicity of the novel APPL1 variant was preliminarily evaluated through in vitro functional experiments.Finally,the impact of these variants on APPL1 protein expression and the insulin pathway were assessed,and the potential mechanism underlying the interaction between the APPL1 protein and the insulin receptor was further explored.RESULTS A total of five novel mutations were identified,including four missense mutations(Asp632Tyr,Arg633His,Arg532Gln,and Ile642Met)and one intronic mutation(1153-16A>T).Pathogenicity prediction analysis revealed that the Arg532Gln was pathogenic across all predictions.The Asp632Tyr and Arg633His variants also had pathogenicity based on MutationTaster.In addition,multiple alignment of amino acid sequences showed that the Arg532Gln,Asp632Tyr,and Arg633His variants were conserved across different species.Moreover,in in vitro functional experiments,both the c.1894G>T(at Asp632Tyr)and c.1595G>A(at Arg532Gln)mutations were found to downregulate the expression of APPL1 on both protein and mRNA levels,indicating their pathogenic nature.Therefore,based on the patient’s clinical and family history,combined with the results from bioinformatics analysis and functional experiment,the c.1894G>T(at Asp632Tyr)and c.1595G>A(at Arg532Gln)mutations were classified as pathogenic mutations.Importantly,all these mutations were located within the phosphotyrosinebinding domain of APPL1,which plays a critical role in the insulin sensitization effect.CONCLUSION This study provided new insights into the pathogenicity of APPL1 gene mutations in diabetes and revealed a potential target for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease. 展开更多

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of katG and inhA gene mutations in multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), pre-extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (preXDR-TB), and their correlation with resistance to protionamide (Pto). Methods: A total of 229 patients with MDR-TB and pre-XDR-TB diagnosed in the Eighth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2020 to February 2024 were selected to analyze the characteristics of katG and inhA mutations in MTB clinical isolates and their correlation with Pto resistance. Results: The mutation rate of katG (with or without inhA mutation) was 85.2%. The mutation rates in MDR-TB and pre-XDR-TB were 87.4% (125/143) and 81.4% (70/86), respectively. The mutation rate of inhA (including katG mutation) was 14.8% (34/229), which was 12.6% (18/143) and 18.6% (16/86) in MDR-TB and pre-XDR-MTB, respectively. There was no difference in mutation (P > 0.05). Conclusion: The total resistance rate to Pto in 229 strains was 8.7% (20/229), which was 8.4% (12/143) and 9.3% (8/86) in MDR-TB and pre-XDR-TB, respectively. Among the inhA mutant strains, 13 were resistant to the Pto phenotype, and the resistance rate was 65% (13/20). In MDR-TB and pre-XDR-TB strains resistant to Pto, inhA gene mutations occurred in 66.7% (6/9) and 63.6% (7/11), respectively. The resistance rates of MDR-MTB and pre-XDR-TB strains without inhA gene mutation to Pto were 2.4% (3/125) and 5.7% (4/70), respectively. 展开更多

In this editorial we comment on an article published in a recent issue of the World J Gastrointest Surg.A common gene mutation in gastric cancer(GC)is the TP53 mutation.As a tumor suppressor gene,TP53 is implicated in more than half of all tumor occurrences.TP53 gene mutations in GC tissue may be related with clinical pathological aspects.The TP53 mutation arose late in the progression of GC and aided in the final switch to malignancy.CDH1 encodes E-cadherin,which is involved in cell-to-cell adhesion,epithelial structure maintenance,cell polarity,differentiation,and intracellular signaling pathway modulation.CDH1 mutations and functional loss can result in diffuse GC,and CDH1 mutations can serve as independent prognostic indicators for poor prognosis.GC patients can benefit from genetic counseling and testing for CDH1 mutations.Demethylation therapy may assist to postpone the onset and progression of GC.The investigation of TP53 and CDH1 gene mutations in GC allows for the investigation of the relationship between these two gene mutations,as well as providing some basis for evaluating the prognosis of GC patients. 展开更多

BACKGROUND We report a rare case of primary clinical presentation featuring elevated creatine kinase(CK)levels in a neonate,which is associated with the LAMA2 gene.In this case,a heterozygous mutation in exon5 of the LAMA2 gene,c.715C>G(resulting in a change of nucleotide number 715 in the coding region from cytosine to gua-nine),induced an amino acid alteration p.R239G(No.239)in the patient,repre-senting a missense mutation.This observation may be elucidated by the neonatal creatine monitoring mechanism,a phenomenon not previously reported.CASE SUMMARY We analysed the case of a neonate presenting solely with elevated CK levels who was eventually discharged after supportive treatment.The chief complaint was identification of increased CK levels for 15 d and higher CK values for 1 d.Ad-mission occurred at 18 d of age,and despite prolonged treatment with creatine and vitamin C,the elevated CK levels showed limited improvement.Whole exo-me sequencing revealed the presence of a c.715C>G mutation in LAMA2 in the newborn,correlating with a clinical phenotype.However,the available informa-tion offers insufficient evidence for clinical pathogenicity.CONCLUSION Mutations in LAMA2 are associated with the clinical phenotype of increased neonatal CK levels,for which no specific treatment exists.Whole genome sequen-cing facilitates early diagnosis. 展开更多

BACKGROUND The SETD1B gene is instrumental in human intelligence and nerve development.Mutations in the SETD1B gene have been linked in recent studies to neurodevelopmental disorders,seizures,and language delay.CASE SUMMARY This study aimed to analyze the clinical manifestations and treatment of three patients suffering from mental retardation,epilepsy,and language delay resulting from a new mutation in the SETD1B gene.Three individuals with these symptoms were selected,and their clinical symptoms,gene test results,and treatment were analyzed.This article discusses the impact of the SETD1B gene mutation on patients and outlines the treatment approach.Among the three patients(two females and one male,aged 8,4,and 1,respectively),all exhibited psychomotor retardation,attention deficit,and hyperactivity disorder,and two had epilepsy.Antiepileptic treatment with sodium tripolyvalproate halted the seizures in the affected child,although mental development remained somewhat delayed.Whole exome sequencing revealed new mutations in the SETD1B gene for all patients,specifically with c.5473C>T(p.Arg1825trp),c.4120C>T(p.Gln1374*,593),c.14_15insC(p.His5Hisfs*33).CONCLUSION Possessing the SETD1B gene mutation may cause mental retardation accompanied by seizures and language delay.Although the exact mechanism is not fully understood,interventions such as drug therapy,rehabilitation training,and family support can assist patients in managing their symptoms and enhancing their quality of life.Furthermore,genetic testing supplies healthcare providers with more precise diagnostic and therapeutic guidance,informs families about genetic disease risks,and contributes to understanding disease pathogenesis and drug research and development. 展开更多

BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to enhance understanding of the diagnosis and treatment of atypical hereditary spherocytosis(HS),and to broaden the diagnostic thoughts of physicians for patients with jaundice.CASE SUMMARY A 28-year-old male presented with jaundice,bile duct stone,and splenomegaly,but without anemia.Other causes of jaundice were excluded,and gene se-quencing revealed a novel heterozygous variant of c.1801C>T(p.Q601X)in exon 14 of the SPTB(NM_01355436)gene on chromosome 14(chr14:65260580)in the patient’s blood;the biological parents and child of the patient did not have similar variants.A splenectomy was performed on the patient and his bilirubin levels returned to normal after surgery.Thus,a novel gene variant causing HS was identified.This variant may result in the truncation ofβ-hemoglobin in the erythrocyte membrane,leading to loss of normal function,jaundice,and hemolytic anemia.The clinical manifestations of the patient were hyperjaundice and an absence of typical hemolysis during the course of the disease,which caused challenges for diagnosis by the clinicians.CONCLUSION Following a definitive diagnosis,genetic testing and response to treatment identified a gene variant site for a novel hemolytic anemia. 展开更多

AIM:To identify the pathogenic gene variant in a family with lacrimo-auriculo-dento-digital syndrome[LADD(MIM 149730)]showing congenital lacrimal duct dysplasia as the main clinical manifestation and lay the foundation for future research on the pathogenic gene.METHODS:Ophthalmological examinations,including slit-lamp biomicroscopy and lacrimal duct probing,and computed tomography dacryocystography(CT-DCG)were performed for all participants.The family pedigree was drawn,genetic features were analyzed,and the genomic DNA of the subjects was extracted.Pathogenic genes were screened via whole exome sequencing(WES)and confirmed using Sanger sequencing.RESULTS:Six patients belonged to this three-generation family,and their clinical manifestations included congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction,congenital absence of lacrimal puncta and canaliculi,lacrimal fistulae,and limb deformities.This pattern indicates autosomal dominant inheritance.Diagnosis was based on the clinical characteristics of LADD syndrome,which presented in all the patients in this family.A novel frameshif t mutation in the FGF10 gene(NM_004465.1),c.234dup C(p.Trp79Leus*15),was identified in all patients via WES.The variant was confirmed by Sanger sequencing and classified as a“pathogenic mutation”according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics(ACMG)variant interpretation guidelines.CONCLUSION:A novel frameshift mutation in the FGF10 gene is found in all patients.This finding helps this family with LADD syndrome receiving a more accurate clinical diagnosis and genetic counseling by extending the mutation range of the FGF10 gene. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1C(CDKN1C)is a cell proliferation inhibitor that regulates the cell cycle and cell growth through G1 cell cycle arrest.CDKN1C mutations can lead to IMAGe syndrome(CDKN1C allele gain-of-function mutations lead to intrauterine growth restriction,metaphyseal dysplasia,adrenal hypoplasia congenital,and genitourinary malformations).We present a Silver-Russell syndrome(SRS)pedigree that was due to a missense mutation affecting the same amino acid position,279,in the CDKN1C gene,resulting in the amino acid substitution p.Arg279His(c.836G>A).The affected family members had an SRS phenotype but did not have limb asymmetry or adrenal insufficiency.The amino acid changes in this specific region were located in a narrow functional region that contained mutations previously associated with IMAGe syndrome.In familial SRS patients,the PCNA region of CDKN1C should be analysed.Adrenal insufficiency should be excluded in all patients with functional CDKN1C variants.CASE SUMMARY We describe the case of an 8-year-old girl who initially presented with short stature.Her height was 91.6 cm,and her weight was 10.2 kg.Physical examination revealed that she had a relatively large head,an inverted triangular face,a protruding forehead,a low ear position,sunken eye sockets,and irregular cracked teeth but no limb asymmetry.Family history:The girl’s mother,greatgrandmother,and grandmother’s brother also had a prominent forehead,triangular face,and severely proportional dwarfism but no limb asymmetry or adrenal insufficiency.Exome sequencing of the girl revealed a new heterozygous CDKN1C(NM_000076.2)c.836G>A mutation,resulting in a variant with a predicted evolutionarily highly conserved arginine substituted by histidine(p.Arg279His).The same causative mutation was found in both the proband’s mother,great-grandmother,and grandmother’s brother,who had similar phenotypes.Thus far,we found an SRS pedigree,which was due to a missense mutation affecting the same amino acid position,279,in the CDKN1C gene,resulting in the amino acid substitution p.Arg279His(c.836G>A).Although the SRS-related CDKN1C mutation is in the IMAGe-related mutation hotspot region[the proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)domain],no adrenal insufficiency was reported in this SRS pedigree.The reason may be that the location of the genomic mutation and the type of missense mutation determines the phenotype.The proband was treated with recombinant human growth hormone(rhGH).After 1 year of rhGH treatment,the height standard deviation score of the proband increased by 0.93 standard deviation score,and her growth rate was 8.1 cm/year.No adverse reactions,such as abnormal blood glucose,were found.CONCLUSION Functional mutations in CDKN1C can lead to familial SRS without limb asymmetry,and some patients may have glucose abnormalities.In familial SRS patients,the PCNA region of CDKN1C should be analysed.Adrenal insufficiency should be excluded in all patients with functional CDKN1C variants. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Maturity-onset diabetes of the young(MODY)is the most common monogenic type of diabetes.Recently,14 gene mutations have been found to be associated with MODY.In addition,the KLF11 gene mutation is the pathogenic gene of MODY7.To date,the clinical and functional characteristics of the novel KLF11mutation c.G31A have not yet been reported.CASE SUMMARY We report of a 30-year-old male patient with a one-year history of nonketosisprone diabetes and a 3-generation family history of diabetes.The patient was found to carry a KLF11 gene mutation.Therefore,the clinical data of family members were collected and investigated.A total of four members of the family were found to have heterozygous mutations in the KLF11 gene c.G31A,which resulted in a change in the corresponding amino acid p.D11N.Three patients had diabetes mellitus,and one patient had impaired glucose tolerance.CONCLUSION The heterozygous mutation of the KLF11 gene c.G31A(p.D11N)is a new mutation site of MODY7.Subsequently,the main treatment included dietary interventions and oral drugs. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Congenital lymphangiectasia is a rare disease characterized by dilated interstitial lymphatic vessels and cystic expansion of the lymphatic vessels.Congenital lymphangiectasia can affect various organ systems;however,it frequently occurs in the lungs accompanied with unexplained pleural effusion.Further,it might not be diagnosed during prenatal examination owing to the absence of pronounced abnormalities.However,after birth the newborn rapidly develops respiratory distress that quickly deteriorates.Genetic variations in proteins controlling the development of lymphatic vessels contribute to the pathophysiology of this disease.We report a rare case of heterozygous mutation of ADAMTS3 and FLT4 genes,which have not been reported previously.CASE SUMMARY We analysed the case of a neonate who had presented with only pleural effusion at a late gestational age and eventually died due to its inability to establish spontaneous breathing after birth.An autopsy revealed lymphangiectasia of the organ systems.Further,whole exome sequencing revealed heterozygous mutations of the lymphangiogenesis-controlling genes,ADAMTS3 and FLT4,and Sanger verification revealed similar lesions in the mother with no symptoms.CONCLUSION Considering the presented case,obstetricians should observe unexplained foetal pleural effusion,and perform pathology analysis and whole exome sequencing for a conclusive diagnosis and prompt treatment. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Hereditary spastic paraplegia(HSP)is a group of neurogenetic diseases of the corticospinal tract,accompanied by distinct spasticity and weakness of the lower extremities.Mutations in the spastic paraplegia type 4(SPG4)gene,encoding the spastin protein,are the major cause of the disease.This study reported a Chinese family with HSP caused by a novel mutation of the SPG4 gene.CASE SUMMARY A 44-year-old male was admitted to our hospital for long-term right lower limb weakness,leg stiffness,and unstable walking.His symptoms gradually worsened,while no obvious muscle atrophy in the lower limbs was found.Neurological examinations revealed that the muscle strength of the lower limbs was normal,and knee reflex hyperreflexia and bilateral positive Babinski signs were detected.Members of his family also had the same symptoms.Using mutation analysis,a novel heterozygous duplication mutation,c.1053dupA,p.(Gln352Thrfs*15),was identified in the SPG4 gene in this family.CONCLUSION A Chinese family with HSP had a novel mutation of the SPG4 gene,which is autosomal dominant and inherited as pure HSP.The age of onset,sex distribution,and clinical manifestations of all existing living patients in this family were analyzed.The findings may extend the current knowledge on the existing mutations in the SPG4 gene. 展开更多

Background: Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness incapacitating over 80 million people worldwide. Several pathogenetic mechanisms have been postulated to explain the optic nerve damage that occur in POAG among which genetic predisposition is prominent. Gene-Linkage-based studies have identified genes associated with POAG: Myocilin, Optineurin, WDR36, Tank-Binding Kinase (TBK1) and APbb-2. Objective: To investigate the prevalence of myocilin gene mutation in adult-onset POAG patients and non-glaucoma subjects who are indigenes of Rivers State. Methodology: In this comparative cross-sectional study, 393 POAG patients attending the Glaucoma Clinic of UPTH were compared with 393 age and sex-matched phenotypically normal participants. Clinical assessment combined with findings from clinical records was used. Venous blood was obtained for genomic analyses. Extracted DNA was sequenced with specific primers for myocilin and polymerase chain reaction. Zymo-Bead Genomic DNA kit protocol was used to detect allelic differences. Results: Total of 786 participants participated in the study. The mean age was 59.8 ± 11.8 years. The prevalence of myocilin gene mutation (MYOC) in the study population was 5.3%, in the POAG group was 8.4%, and 2.3% in the non-glaucoma group. This observed difference was statistically significant (p = 0.001). Location of the mutant myocilin gene was in GLC1A 171638779, 171638703, 171638610 and 171638608. Conclusion: Mutations in myocilin gene are associated with adult-onset POAG in Rivers State. Its relevance as a biomarker for diagnosis of adult-onset POAG needs further investigations. 展开更多

Background:To investigate the mutation types and mutation rate of the epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)gene in patients with lung adenocarcinoma and the clinical features of lung adenocarcinoma with EGFR gene mutations in Karamay,Xinjiang,China.Methods:Paraffin-embedded tissue samples of adenocarcinoma patients were collected in the Karamay Central Hospital from March 2016 to June 2019,and mutations in exon 18–21 of the EGFR gene were detected by the allele-specific amplification polymerase chain reaction(Amplification RefractoryMutation System–PCR)method.The relationships between themutation types,mutation incidence,and clinical features were analyzed.Results:Of the 170 patients with lung adenocarcinoma,83 had EGFR mutations.The total mutation rate of EGFR in patients with lung adenocarcinoma was 48.8%,which included mutations in exons 18(1.2%[2/170]),19(19.4%[33/170]),20(2.4%[4/170]),and 21(20.6%[35/170]).Intriguingly,there was a case with 9 mutations in exons 20 and 21.The mutations in exon 19 of EGFR resulted in the deletion of codons 746 to 750.The main mutation in exon 21 was L858R(91.4%[32/35]).There was no significant difference in exons 19 and 21 mutation rates(P>0.05).The mutation rate of EGFR in female patients was significantly higher than that in male patients(P<0.05)but had no correlation with the age,smoking status,and clinical stage of patients with non–small cell lung cancer(P>0.05).The EGFR mutation rate may be related to the degree of tumor differentiation.Conclusions:Among patients with lung adenocarcinoma in Kelamayi(city in Xinjiang),EGFR mutations were more frequently detected in female patients,and the main sites of mutations were exons 19 and 21. 展开更多
