RESUMO

CHARGE syndrome, due to CHD7 pathogenic variations, is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by a large spectrum of severity. Despite the great number of variations reported, no clear genotype-to-phenotype correlation has been reported. Unsupervised machine learning and clustering was undertaken using a retrospective cohort of 42 patients, after deep radiologic and clinical phenotyping, to establish genotype-phenotype correlation for CHD7-related CHARGE syndrome. It resulted in three clusters showing phenotypes of different severities. While no clear genotype-phenotype correlation appeared within the first two clusters, a single patient was outlying the cohort data (cluster 3) with the most atypical phenotype and the most distal frameshift variant in the gene. We added two other patients with similar distal pathogenic variants and observed a tendency toward mild and/or atypical phenotypes. We hypothesized that this finding could potentially be related to escaping nonsense mediated RNA decay, but found no evidence of such decay in vivo for any of the CHD7 pathogenic variation tested. This indicates that this milder phenotype may rather result from the production of a protein retaining all functional domains.

RESUMO

We describe progressive spastic paraparesis in two male siblings and the daughter of one of these individuals. Onset of disease occurred within the first decade, with stiffness and gait difficulties. Brisk deep tendon reflexes and extensor plantar responses were present, in the absence of intellectual disability or dermatological manifestations. Cerebral imaging identified intracranial calcification in all symptomatic family members. A marked upregulation of interferon-stimulated gene transcripts was recorded in all three affected individuals and in two clinically unaffected relatives. A heterozygous IFIH1 c.2544T>G missense variant (p.Asp848Glu) segregated with interferon status. Although not highly conserved (CADD score 10.08 vs. MSC-CADD score of 19.33) and predicted as benign by in silico algorithms, this variant is not present on publically available databases of control alleles, and expression of the D848E construct in HEK293T cells indicated that it confers a gain-of-function. This report illustrates, for the first time, the occurrence of autosomal-dominant spastic paraplegia with intracranial calcifications due to an IFIH1-related type 1 interferonopathy.
