RÉSUMÉ

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the genetic basis for a Chinese pedigree featuring congenital profound syndromic deafness and chronic constipation, and provide prenatal diagnosis for a high-risk fetus.@*METHODS@#Whole-exome sequencing was carried out to analyze the sequences of genes associated with hereditary deafness, and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) was used to verify the candidate variant in the proband's parents and the fetus.@*RESULTS@#The proband was found to have harbored a heterozygous deletion of SOX10, a pathogenic gene associated with Waardenburg syndrome type 4C (WS4C). The same deletion was found in her mother (with profound syndromic deafness and chronic constipation) and the fetus, but not in her father with normal hearing. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) and Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP), the SOX10 gene deletion was predicted to be a pathogenic variant (PVS1+PM2_Supporting+PP1+PP4).@*CONCLUSION@#The pedigree was diagnosed with WS4C, which has conformed to an autosomal dominant inheritance. Deletion of the entire SOX10 gene, as a loss-of-function variant, probably underlay its pathogenesis. Above finding has facilitated genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis for this family.

RÉSUMÉ

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the genetic basis for a Chinese pedigree affected with Branchio-Oto syndrome (BOS).@*METHODS@#A pedigree with BOS which had presented at the Genetics and Prenatal Diagnosis Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in May 2021 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the pedigree was collected. Peripheral blood samples of the proband and her parents were collected. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was carried out for the proband. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) was used to verify the result of WES, short tandem repeat (STR) analysis was used to verify the relationship between the proband and her parents, and the pathogenicity of the candidate variant was analyzed.@*RESULTS@#The proband, a 6-year-old girl, had manifested severe congenital deafness, along with inner ear malformation and bilateral branchial fistulae. WES revealed that she has harbored a heterozygous deletion of 2 466 kb at chromosome 8q13.3, which encompassed the EYA1 gene. MLPA confirmed that all of the 18 exons of the EYA1 gene were lost, and neither of her parents has carried the same deletion variant. STR analysis supported that both of her parents are biological parents. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, the deletion was classified as pathogenic (PVS1+PS2+PM2_Supporting+PP4).@*CONCLUSION@#The heterozygous deletion of EYA1 gene probably underlay the pathogenicity of BOS in the proband, which has provided a basis for the clinical diagnosis.

RÉSUMÉ

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the genetic basis of a Chinese pedigree affected with progressive non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss.@*METHODS@#High-throughput DNA sequencing was carried out to analyze 415 genes associated with hereditary deafness in the proband. Sanger sequencing was carried out to verify the suspected variants among her family members.@*RESULTS@#The proband was found to carry a heterozygous c.842T>A (p.Ile281Asn) variant of the POU4F3 gene. The same variant was found among all other patients from the pedigree including the proband's mother, brother, aunt and maternal grandfather, but not among those with normal hearing. Based on the standards and guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics and the Association for Molecular Pathology, the c.842T>A(p.Ile281Asn) variant of the POU4F3 gene was predicted as likely pathogenic (PM2+PM5+PP1+PP3+PP4).@*CONCLUSION@#A Chinese pedigree affected by a rare type autosomal dominant deafness-15 (DFNA15) due to a novel c.842T>A (p.Ile281Asn) variant of the POU4F3 gene was identified. The result has facilitated genetic counseling and risk assessment for the pedigree.

RÉSUMÉ

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the genetic basis for a pedigree affected with congenital sensorineural deafness.@*METHODS@#High-throughput sequencing was carried out to analyze the coding regions of 415 genes associated with hereditary deafness in the proband. Suspected variants were verified by PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing of her parents and sister.@*RESULTS@#The proband was found to have carried a heterozygous c.5131G>A (p.Val1711Ile) variant of the CDH23 gene and a heterozygous c.2884C>T(p.Arg962Cys) variant of the PCDH15 gene, which were respectively inherited from her mother and father. Her sister (with normal hearing) was also heterozygous for the c.5131G>A (p.Val1711Ile) variant of the CDH23 gene but not the c.2884C>T (p.Arg962Cys) variant of the PCDH15 gene. Based on the guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, both variants were predicted to be likely pathogenic (PS1+PM2+PP3+PP4).@*CONCLUSION@#The c.5131G>A (p.Val1711Ile) variant of the CDH23 gene and c.2884C>T (p.Arg962Cys) variant of the PCDH15 gene probably underlay the pathogenesis of Usher syndrome type 1D/F in this pedigree.

RÉSUMÉ

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the genetic etiology of a pedigree affected with hereditary retinitis pigmentosa.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>High-throughput DNA sequencing was used to analyze the sequences of 173 genes associated with hereditary eye diseases in the proband. Suspected mutation was verified with PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The proband was found to have carried a c.570_571 ins GAAGATGCTGT insertional mutation in the RP2 gene located on the X chromosome. All female carriers of the pedigree were heterozygous, while all affected males were hemizygous for the same mutation.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The inheritance pattern of this retinitis pigmentosa pedigree was X-linked recessive. The c.570_571 ins GAAGATGCTGT insertional mutation of the RP2 gene probably underlies the disease.</p>
