Dimerization of two novel apoptosis-inducing proteins and its function in regulating cell apoptosis

Apoptosis (or programmed cell death) was firstly described by Kerr[1] in 1972. Since bcl-2 cDNA was cloned by Cleary et al.[2] in 1986, many apoptosis-related genes have been found in human or mammalian cell lines. The bcl-2 family[35] containing 23 genes, the caspase family[68] bearing 14 members and the TNF family[9,10] are the most clearly elucidated ones. With the study of apoptosis going deeper, people have realized that cell apoptosis is impor-tant in development and homeostasis of mu…

Molecular evolution and functional divergence of HAK potassium transporter gene family in rice （Oryza sativa L.）

The high-affinity K＋ （HAK） transporter gene family is the largest family in plant that functions as potassium transporter and is important for various aspects of plant life. In the present study, we identified 27 members of this family in rice genome. The phylogenetic tree divided the land plant HAK transporter proteins into 6 distinct groups. Although the main characteristic of this family was established before the origin of seed plants, they also showed some differences between the members of non-seed and seed plants. The HAK genes in rice were found to have expanded in lineage-specific manner after the split of monocots and dicots, and both segmental duplication events and tandem duplication events contributed to the expansion of this family. Functional divergence analysis for this family provided statistical evidence for shifted evolutionary rate after gene duplication. Further analysis indicated that both point mutant with positive selection and gene conversion events contributed to the evolution of this family in rice.

The R1947X mutation of NF1 causing autosomal dominant neurofibromatosis type 1 in a Chinese family

Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a common autosomal dominant disorder with a high rate of penetrance. It is caused by the mutation of the tumor suppressor gene NF1, which encodes neurofibromin. The main function of neurofibromin is down-regulating the biological activity of the proto-oncoprotein Ras by acting as a Ras-specific GTPase activating protein. In this study, we identified a Chinese family affected with neurofibromatosis type 1. The known gene NF1 associated with NF1 was studied by linkage analysis and by direct sequencing of the entire coding region and exon-intron boundaries of the NF1 gene. The R1947X mutation of NF1 was identified, which was co-segregated with affected individuals in the Chinese family, but not present in unaffected family members. This is the first report, which states that the R1947X mutation of NF1 may be one of reasons for neurofibromatosis type 1 in Chinese population.

The association between a single nucleotide polymorphism rs11966200 in MHC region and clinical features of generalized vitiligo in Chinese Han population

Vitiligo is an acquired pigmentary disorder characterized by loss of epidermal melanocytes. A strong association at a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs11966200 within MHC region had been identified in a recent genome-wide association study of generalized vitiligo in Chinese Han population. This study aims to investigate the relationships between SNP rs11966200 and the clinical features of generalized vitiligo in Chinese Han population. We compared the allele and genotype frequency among different vitiligo subphenotypes including age onset, extent of disease, clinical subtypes, family history of vitiligo and history of autoimmune disease. Our data showed SNP rs11966200 was associated with early-onset vitiligo (onset age ≤20 years) (odds ratio [OR], 1.54; p = 2.01 × 10^?13), moderate-severe vitiligo (involved body surface ≥5 %) (OR, 1.17; p = 0.025), vitiligo vulgaris (OR, 1.13; p = 0.043), and focal vitiligo (OR, 0.86; p = 0.018). The study suggested that the underlying risk causal allele tagged by SNP rs11966200 might not only play important roles in the development of vitiligo, but also contribute to the diverse clinical characteristics of generalized vitiligo at least in Chinese Han population.     

Early disease onset and increased risk of other autoimmune diseases in familial generalized vitiligo

Generalized vitiligo is an autoimmune disorder in which acquired white patches of skin and overlying hair result from autoimmune loss of melanocytes from involved areas. Although usually sporadic, family clustering of vitiligo may occur, in a non-Mendelian pattern typical of multifactorial, polygenic inheritance. Sporadic vitiligo is associated with autoimmune thyroid disease, pernicious anemia, Addison's disease, and lupus; these same disorders occur at increased frequency in patients' first-degree relatives. Here, we studied 133 'multiplex' generalized vitiligo families, with multiple affected family members. The age of onset of vitiligo is earlier in these 'multiplex' families than in patients with sporadic vitiligo. Affected members of the multiplex vitiligo families have elevated frequencies of autoimmune thyroid disease, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, adult-onset insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, pernicious anemia, and Addison's disease. Probands' unaffected siblings have elevated frequencies of most of these same autoimmune diseases, particularly if the proband had non-vitiligo autoimmune disease. Familial generalized vitiligo is thus characterized by earlier disease onset and a broader repertoire of associated autoimmune diseases than sporadic vitiligo. This mostly likely reflects a greater inherited genetic component of autoimmune susceptibility in these families. These findings have important implications for autoimmune disease surveillance in families in which multiple members are affected with vitiligo.     

Genetic epidemiology of vitiligo: multilocus recessivity cross-validated.

Vitiligo is a dermatological disorder characterized by hypopigmentary patches that tend to become progressive over time. There are reports of extensive familial aggregation. A genetic model for this disorder was earlier proposed by us. This model postulates that recessive alleles at multiple unlinked autosomal loci interact epistatically in the pathogenesis of vitiligo. The present family study was primarily undertaken to cross-validate the proposed genetic model. Data on 194 families from the United States were collected. Each family was ascertained through an affected proband. Analyses of these data reveal that approximately 20% of probands have at least one first-degree relative afflicted with vitiligo. All types of first-degree relatives of probands show a significant risk of developing vitiligo. Results of segregation and robustness analyses reveal that the genetic model postulated by us previously is the most parsimonious model for the present family data set.     

Latent class analysis of a series of 717 patients with vitiligo allows the identification of two clinical subtypes

Non‐segmental vitiligo (NSV) is an enigmatic disease with various clinical courses. To empirically identify underlying subtypes of NSV, we performed latent class analysis (LCA) of 717 consecutive patients with NSV seen between 2006 and 2012 and were analyzed. Median age was 32 yrs (14–45), median age at NSV onset was 18 yrs (8–32), and median NSV duration 5 yrs (0.75–78.5). A two‐class model showed the best fit. Of the 717 patients, 280 (39%) belonged to LC1 and 437 (61%) to LC2. LC1 patients had high probabilities for early disease onset (<12 yrs), halo nevi, family history of premature hair greying, Koebner phenomenon, previous episodes of repigmentation, and family history of vitiligo. By contrast, LC2 patients were characterized by a late disease onset (after or at the age of 12 yrs, median age of 30 yrs) and acrofacial localization without any lesions on trunk or limbs. These two LCA classes (LC1, ‘prepubertal onset’; LC2, ‘post‐pubertal onset’) may help refining results from genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) and allow a more accurate genotype–phenotype correlation and help defining more directed treatment protocols.     

Difference in pathogenesis between vitiligo vulgaris and halo nevi associated with vitiligo is supported by an HLA association study

Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II associations with two subtypes of vitiligo: vitiligo vulgaris and halo nevi associated with vitiligo were investigated. In previous studies associations between vitiligo and HLA antigens have been reported but these two subtypes have never been taken into account. However from a clinical and histological point of view, a difference in (auto)-immune pathogenesis can be expected. This difference might be reflected in an association with different HLA alleles. Seventy-six unrelated Dutch Caucasians, 40 with vitiligo vulgaris and 36 with halo nevi associated with vitiligo were included. A panel of randomly chosen HLA typed healthy Dutch blood donors (n = 2400) served as control population. HLA-DR and -DQ typing was carried out on blood samples by amplifying genomic DNA using polymerase chain reaction followed by dot blot hybridization with sequence specific oligonucleotides. The main outcome measures were odds ratio (OR), uncorrected P-value (P(u)) and corrected P-value. There were distinct differences in the clinical manifestations between vitiligo vulgaris and halo nevi associated with vitiligo with respect to precipitating factors, extent and progress of the disease and the association with other auto-immune diseases in the two subtypes and their respective first degree family members. Our stratification reveals differences in HLA class II between both subtypes and between subtypes and controls. A case-control association study showed a significant positive association of HLA-DR4 (OR = 2.787, P(u) = 0.0022) and DR53 (OR = 2.249, P(u) = 0.0153) and a negative association of HLA-DR3 (OR = 0.195, P(u) = 0.0024) with vitiligo vulgaris. The group with halo nevi associated with vitiligo did not show these associations, but had a significant negative association with HLA-DR11 (OR = 0.083, P(u) = 0.0067). In conclusion, the differences in HLA association within clinical subtypes of vitiligo support our suggestion that vitiligo vulgaris and halo nevi associated with vitiligo have distinct pathogenic mechanisms.     

HLA class II haplotype DRB1*04–DQB1*0301 contributes to risk of familial generalized vitiligo and early disease onset

Generalized vitiligo is a common autoimmune disorder characterized by white patches of skin and overlying hair caused by loss of pigment‐forming melanocytes from involved areas. Familial clustering of vitiligo is not uncommon, and patients and their relatives are at increased risk for a specific complex of other autoimmune diseases. Compared with sporadic vitiligo, familial vitiligo is characterized by earlier disease onset and greater risk and broader repertoire of autoimmunity, suggesting a stronger genetic component, and perhaps stronger associations with specific alleles. To determine whether the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) contributes to the familial clustering of vitiligo and vitiligo‐associated autoimmune/autoinflammatory diseases, we performed case–control and family‐based association analyses of HLA class II‐DRB1 and ‐DQB1 alleles and haplotypes in affected probands and their parents from 76 European‐American Caucasian families with familial vitiligo. Affected probands showed a significantly increased frequency of DRB1*04–DQB1*0301 and a significantly decreased frequency of DRB1*15–DQB1*0602 compared with a large sample of reference chromosomes. Family‐based association analyses confirmed these results. Probands with DRB1*04–DQB1*0301 developed vitiligo an average of 13.32 yr earlier than probands with DRB1*15–DQB1*0602. Overall, our results indicate that specific MHC‐linked genetic variation contributes to risk of familial vitiligo, although HLA does not completely explain familial clustering of vitiligo‐associated autoimmune/autoinflammatory diseases.     

Revised classification/nomenclature of vitiligo and related issues: the Vitiligo Global Issues Consensus Conference

During the 2011 International Pigment Cell Conference (IPCC), the Vitiligo European Taskforce (VETF) convened a consensus conference on issues of global importance for vitiligo clinical research. As suggested by an international panel of experts, the conference focused on four topics: classification and nomenclature; definition of stable disease; definition of Koebner's phenomenon (KP); and 'autoimmune vitiligo'. These topics were discussed in seven working groups representing different geographical regions. A consensus emerged that segmental vitiligo be classified separately from all other forms of vitiligo and that the term 'vitiligo' be used as an umbrella term for all non-segmental forms of vitiligo, including 'mixed vitiligo' in which segmental and non-segmental vitiligo are combined and which is considered a subgroup of vitiligo. Further, the conference recommends that disease stability be best assessed based on the stability of individual lesions rather than the overall stability of the disease as the latter is difficult to define precisely and reliably. The conference also endorsed the classification of KP for vitiligo as proposed by the VETF (history based, clinical observation based, or experimentally induced). Lastly, the conference agreed that 'autoimmune vitiligo' should not be used as a separate classification as published evidence indicates that the pathophysiology of all forms of vitiligo likely involves autoimmune or inflammatory mechanisms.
