Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a family of genetic disorders associated with bone
loss and fragility. Mutations associated with OI have been found in genes encoding
the type I collagen chains. People with OI type I often produce insufficient α1-chain
type I collagen because of frameshift, nonsense, or splice site mutations in
COL1A1 or COL1A2. This report is of a Chinese
daughter and mother who had both experienced two bone fractures. Because skeletal
fragility is predominantly inherited, we focused on identifying mutations in
COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes. A novel mutation in
COL1A1, c.700delG, was detected by genomic DNA sequencing in the
mother and daughter, but not in their relatives. The identification of this mutation
led to the conclusion that they were affected by mild OI type I. Open reading frame
analysis indicated that this frameshift mutation would truncate α1-chain type I
collagen at residue p263 (p.E234KfsX264), while the wild-type protein would contain
1,464 residues. The clinical data were consistent with the patients’ diagnosis of
mild OI type I caused by haploinsufficiency of α1-chain type I collagen. Combined
with previous reports, identification of the novel mutation
COL1A1-c.700delG in these patients suggests that
additional genetic and environmental factors may influence the severity of OI. 相似文献

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a bone dysplasia caused by mutations in theCOL1A1 andCOL1A2 genes. Although the condition has been intensely studied for over 25 years and recently over 800 novel mutations have been
published, the relation between the location of mutations and clinical manifestation is poorly understood. Here we report
missense mutations inCOL1A1 of several OI patients. Two novel mutations were found in the D1 period. One caused a substitution of glycine 200 by valine
at the N-terminus of D1 in OI type I/IV, lowering collagen stability by 50% at 34°C. The other one was a substitution of valine
349 by phenylalanine at the C-terminus of D1 in OI type I, lowering collagen stability at 37.5°C. Two other mutations, reported
before, changed amino residues in D4. One was a lethal substitution changing glycine 866 to serine in genetically identical
twins with OI type II. That mutated amino acid was near the border of D3 and D4. The second mutation changed glycine 1040
to serine located at the border of D4 and D0.4, in a proband manifesting OI type III, and lowered collagen stability at 39°C
(2°C lower than normal). Our results confirm the hypothesis on a critical role of the D1 and D4 regions in stabilization of
the collagen triple-helix. The defect in D1 seemed to produce a milder clinical type of OI, whereas the defect in the C-terminal
end of collagen type caused the more severe or lethal types of OI. 相似文献

Osteogenesis imperfecta is normally caused by an autosomal dominant mutation in the type I collagen genes COL1A1 and COL1A2. The severity of osteogenesis imperfecta varies, ranging from perinatal lethality to a very mild phenotype. Although there have been many reports of COL1A1 and COL1A2 mutations, few cases have been reported in Chinese people. We report on five unrelated families and three sporadic cases. The mutations were detected by PCR and direct sequencing. Four mutations in COL1A1 and one in COL1A2 were found, among which three mutations were previously unreported. The mutation rates of G>C at base 128 in intron 31 of the COL1A1 gene and G>A at base 162 in intron 30 of the COL1A2 gene were higher than normal. The patients' clinical characteristics with the same mutation were variable even in the same family. We conclude that mutations in COL1A1 and COL1A2 also have an important role in osteogenesis imperfecta in the Chinese population. As the Han Chinese people account for a quarter of the world's population, these new data contribute to the type I collagen mutation map. 相似文献

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare connective tissue disorder caused by mutations in the type I collagen genes, COL1A1 and COL1A2, and is characterised by low bone mass and bone fragility. In this study, we explored the relationship between type 1 collagen genes and the quantitative trait central corneal thickness (CCT). CCT was measured in a cohort of 28 Australian type I OI patients and mean CCT was found to be significantly lower compared to a normal population (P < 0.001). We then investigated CCT and corneal collagen fibril diameter and density in a mouse model of OI with a col1a2 mutation. Mean CCT was significantly lower in mutant mice (P = 0.002), as was corneal collagen fibril diameter (P = 0.034), whilst collagen fibril density was significantly greater in mutants (P = 0.034). Finally, we conducted a genetic study to determine whether common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in COL1A1 and COL1A2 are associated with CCT variation in the normal human population. Polymorphism rs2696297 (P = 0.003) in COL1A1 and a three SNP haplotype in COL1A2 (P = 0.007) were all significantly associated with normal CCT variation. These data implicate type 1 collagen in the determination of CCT in both OI patients and normal individuals. This provides the first evidence of quantitative trait loci that influence CCT in a normal population and has potential implications for investigating genes involved in glaucoma pathogenesis, a common eye disease in which the severity and progression is influenced by CCT. 相似文献

Collagen and elastin are the primary determinants of vascular integrity, with elastin hypothesized to be the major contributor to aortic compliance and type I collagen the major contributor to aortic strength and stiffness. Type I collagen is normally heterotrimeric composed of two alpha1(I) and one alpha2(I) collagen chains, alpha1(I)(2)alpha2(I). Recent investigations have reported that patients with recessively inherited forms of Ehlers Danlos syndrome that fail to synthesize proalpha2(I) chains have increased risks of cardiovascular complications. To assess the role of alpha2(I) collagen in aortic integrity, we used the osteogenesis imperfecta model (oim) mouse. Oim mice, homozygous for a COL1A2 mutation, synthesize only homotrimeric type I collagen, alpha1(I)3. We evaluated thoracic aortas from 3-month-old oim, heterozygote, and wildtype mice biomechanically for circumferential breaking strength (Fmax) and stiffness (IEM), histologically for morphological differences, and biochemically for collagen content and crosslinking. Circumferential biomechanics of oim and heterozygote descending thoracic aortas demonstrated the anticipated reduced Fmax and IEM relative to wildtype mice. Histological analyses of oim descending aortas demonstrated reduced collagen staining relative to wildtype aortas suggesting decreased collagen content, which hydroxyproline analyses of ascending and descending oim aortas confirmed. These findings suggest the reduced oim thoracic aortic integrity correlates with the absence of the alpha2(I)collagen chains and in part with reduced collagen content. However, oim ascending aortas also demonstrated a significant increase in pyridinoline crosslinks/collagen molecule as compared to wildtype ascending aortas. The role of increased collagen crosslinks is uncertain; increased crosslinking may represent a compensatory mechanism for the decreased integrity. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the genotype-phenotype relationship and the effect of treatment on the clinical course of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI).MethodsWe established a Chinese hospitalized cohort with OI and followed them up for an average of 6 years. All patients were confirmed as having OI using whole-exome sequencing. We analyzed the genotype-phenotype relationship based on different types, pathogenic mechanisms, and gene inheritance patterns of OI. Additionally, we assessed whether there was a difference in treatment efficacy based on genotype.ResultsOne hundred sixteen mutations in 6 pathogenic genes (COL1A1, COL1A2, IFITM5, SERPINF1, FKBP10, and WNT1) were identified in 116 patients with type I, III, IV, V, VI, XI, or XV OI. Compared with patients with COL1A1 mutations, patients with COL1A2 mutations were younger at the time of the first fracture, whereas other phenotypes were similar. When 3 groups (helical, haploinsufficiency, and non-collagen I gene mutations) were compared, patients with helical mutations were the shortest and most prone to dentinogenesis imperfecta. Patients with haploinsufficiency mutations were the oldest at the time of the first fracture. Moreover, patients with non-collagen I gene mutations were least susceptible to blue sclerae and had the highest fracture frequency. Furthermore, there were some minor phenotypic differences among non-collagen I gene mutations. Interestingly, pamidronate achieved excellent results in the treatment of patients with OI, and the treatment effect appeared to be unrelated to their genotypes.ConclusionOur findings indicated a genotype-phenotype relationship and a similar effect of pamidronate treatment in patients with OI, which could provide a basis for guiding clinical treatment and predicting OI prognosis. 相似文献

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is characterized by bone fragility and fractures that may be accompanied by bone deformity, dentinogenesis imperfecta, short stature, and shortened life span. About 90% of individuals with OI have dominant mutations in the type I collagen genes COL1A1 and COL1A2. Recessive forms of OI resulting from mutations in collagen-modifying enzymes and chaperones CRTAP, LEPRE1, PPIB, and FKBP10 have recently been identified. We have identified an autosomal-recessive missense mutation (c.233T>C, p.Leu78Pro) in SERPINH1, which encodes the collagen chaperone-like protein HSP47, that leads to a severe OI phenotype. The mutation results in degradation of the endoplasmic reticulum resident HSP47 via the proteasome. Type I procollagen accumulates in the Golgi of fibroblasts from the affected individual and a population of the secreted type I procollagen is protease sensitive. These findings suggest that HSP47 monitors the integrity of the triple helix of type I procollagen at the ER/cis-Golgi boundary and, when absent, the rate of transit from the ER to the Golgi is increased and helical structure is compromised. The normal 3-hydroxylation of the prolyl residue at position 986 of the triple helical domain of proα1(I) chains places the role of HSP47 downstream from the CRTAP/P3H1/CyPB complex that is involved in prolyl 3-hydroxylation. Identification of this mutation in SERPINH1 gives further insight into critical steps of the collagen biosynthetic pathway and the molecular pathogenesis of OI. 相似文献

Objective: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a group of heritable fragile bone diseases, and the majority are caused by pathogenic variants in the COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes. We sought to identify the genetic causes and phenotypes of OI in Chinese patients without COL1A1 or COL1A2 mutations.Methods: Twenty-three patients who were diagnosed with sporadic OI but did not carry COL1A1/2 mutations were recruited, and their genomic DNA was analyzed using targeted next-generation sequencing of rare OI-related genes. The resulting damaging mutations in the probands and their parents were verified using Sanger sequencing. Moreover, the efficacy of long-term bisphosphonate treatment was evaluated in proband 1.Results: Compound heterozygous variants in the WNT1 and TMEM38B genes were identified in proband 1 and proband 2, respectively. A heterozygous mutation in the P4HB gene was identified in proband 3, and a hemizygous mutation in PLS3 was identified in proband 4. The unaffected parents of the probands (except the father of proband 4) with mutations in the WNT1, TMEM38B, and PLS3 genes were heterozygous carriers of each of the variants, respectively. Notably, proband 3 had the characteristic exophthalmos, flat nasal bridge and flat, wide forehead. None of the patients presented with dentinogenesis imperfecta or hearing loss. Furthermore, bisphosphonates exerted beneficial effects on proband 1, who carried the WNT1 mutations, by increasing bone mineral density Z-score, reshaping the compressed vertebrae and decreasing the fracture risk.Conclusion: We identified novel mutations and expanded the spectrum of phenotypes and genotypes of the extremely rare disorder OI.Abbreviations: BMD = bone mineral density; MIM = Mendelian Inheritance in Man; OI = osteogenesis imperfecta; PDI = protein disulfide isomerase 相似文献

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a hereditary disease occurring in humans and dogs. It is characterized by extremely fragile bones and teeth. Most human and some canine OI cases are caused by mutations in the COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes encoding the subunits of collagen I. Recently, mutations in the CRTAP and LEPRE1 genes were found to cause some rare forms of human OI. Many OI cases exist where the causative mutation has not yet been found. We investigated Dachshunds with an autosomal recessive form of OI. Genotyping only five affected dogs on the 50 k canine SNP chip allowed us to localize the causative mutation to a 5.82 Mb interval on chromosome 21 by homozygosity mapping. Haplotype analysis of five additional carriers narrowed the interval further down to 4.74 Mb. The SERPINH1 gene is located within this interval and encodes an essential chaperone involved in the correct folding of the collagen triple helix. Therefore, we considered SERPINH1 a positional and functional candidate gene and performed mutation analysis in affected and control Dachshunds. A missense mutation (c.977C>T, p.L326P) located in an evolutionary conserved domain was perfectly associated with the OI phenotype. We thus have identified a candidate causative mutation for OI in Dachshunds and identified a fifth OI gene. 相似文献

Background
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare bone disorder. In 90% of cases, OI is caused by mutations in the COL1A1/2 genes, which code procollagen α1 and α2 chains. The main aim of the current research was to identify the mutational spectrum of COL1A1/2 genes in Estonian patients. The small population size of Estonia provides a unique chance to explore the collagen I mutational profile of 100% of OI families in the country.Methods
We performed mutational analysis of peripheral blood gDNA of 30 unrelated Estonian OI patients using Sanger sequencing of COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes, including all intron-exon junctions and 5′UTR and 3′UTR regions, to identify causative OI mutations.Results
We identified COL1A1/2 mutations in 86.67% of patients (26/30). 76.92% of discovered mutations were located in the COL1A1 (n = 20) and 23.08% in the COL1A2 (n = 6) gene. Half of the COL1A1/2 mutations appeared to be novel. The percentage of quantitative COL1A1/2 mutations was 69.23%. Glycine substitution with serine was the most prevalent among missense mutations. All qualitative mutations were situated in the chain domain of pro-α1/2 chains.Conclusion
Our study shows that among the Estonian OI population, the range of collagen I mutations is quite high, which agrees with other described OI cohorts of Northern Europe. The Estonian OI cohort differs due to the high number of quantitative variants and simple missense variants, which are mostly Gly to Ser substitutions and do not extend the chain domain of COL1A1/2 products.11.
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is the most frequently occurring congenital disorder with an increased fracture rate and systemic skeletal involvement. The vast majority of patients have an autosomal dominant form of OI resulting from a mutation in one of the two type I collagen genes COL1A1 or COL1A2. Since 2006, eight genes for autosomal recessive forms of the disorder have been identified, as well as one additional gene for autosomal dominant OI. Our knowledge concerning molecular pathophysiology has been substantially broadened, such that the paradigm of OI as a pure ??collagenopathy?? no longer applies and the clinical classification system will have to be revised. Standard therapy for the more severe forms of OI comprises intravenous administration of bisphosphonates. Additional elements of a multimodal therapeutic concept include surgical intervention for bone deformities or fractures and physiotherapy. 相似文献

Background
The genetics of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) have not been studied in a Vietnamese population before. We performed mutational analysis of the COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes in 91 unrelated OI patients of Vietnamese origin. We then systematically characterized the mutation profiles of these two genes which are most commonly related to OI.Methods
Genomic DNA was extracted from EDTA-preserved blood according to standard high-salt extraction methods. Sequence analysis and pathogenic variant identification was performed with Mutation Surveyor DNA variant analysis software. Prediction of the pathogenicity of mutations was conducted using Alamut Visual software. The presence of variants was checked against Dalgleish’s osteogenesis imperfecta mutation database.Results
The sample consisted of 91 unrelated osteogenesis imperfecta patients. We identified 54 patients with COL1A1/2 pathogenic variants; 33 with COL1A1 and 21 with COL1A2. Two patients had multiple pathogenic variants. Seventeen novel COL1A1 and 10 novel COL1A2 variants were identified. The majority of identified COL1A1/2 pathogenic variants occurred in a glycine substitution (36/56, 64.3 %), usually serine (23/36, 63.9 %). We found two pathogenic variants of the COL1A1 gene c.2461G?>?A (p.Gly821Ser) in four unrelated patients and one, c.2005G?>?A (p.Ala669Thr), in two unrelated patients.Conclusion
Our data showed a lower number of collagen OI pathogenic variants in Vietnamese patients compared to reported rates for Asian populations. The OI mutational profile of the Vietnamese population is unique and related to the presence of a high number of recessive mutations in non-collagenous OI genes. Further analysis of OI patients negative for collagen mutations, is required.13.

Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy (UCMD) is a disabling and life-threatening disorder resulting from either recessive or dominant mutations in genes encoding collagen VI. Although the majority of the recessive UCMD cases have frameshift or nonsense mutations in COL6A1, COL6A2, or COL6A3, recessive structural mutations in the COL6A2 C-globular region are emerging also. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms have remained elusive. Here we identified a homozygous COL6A2 E624K mutation (C1 subdomain) and a homozygous COL6A2 R876S mutation (C2 subdomain) in two UCMD patients. The consequences of the mutations were investigated using fibroblasts from patients and cells stably transfected with the mutant constructs. In contrast to expectations based on the clinical severity of these two patients, secretion and assembly of collagen VI were moderately affected by the E624K mutation but severely impaired by the R876S substitution. The E624K substitution altered the electrostatic potential of the region surrounding the metal ion-dependent adhesion site, resulting in a collagen VI network containing thick fibrils and spots with densely packed microfibrils. The R876S mutation prevented the chain from assembling into triple-helical collagen VI molecules. The minute amount of collagen VI secreted by the R876S fibroblasts was solely composed of a faster migrating chain corresponding to the C2a splice variant with an alternative C2 subdomain. In transfected cells, the C2a splice variant was able to assemble into short microfibrils. Together, the results suggest that the C2a splice variant may functionally compensate for the loss of the normal COL6A2 chain when mutations occur in the C2 subdomain. 相似文献

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a generalised disorder of connective tissue characterised by an increased fragility of bones and also manifested in other tissues containing collagen type I, by blue sclera, hearing loss, dentinogenesis imperfecta, hyperextensible joints, hernias and easy bruising. OI is dominantly inherited and results in >90% OI cases, caused by mutations in one of the two genes COL1A1 or COL1A2 coding for type I procollagen. The Lithuanian OI database comprises 147 case records covering the period of 1980 - 2001. Clinical and genealogical analysis of OI cases/families from Lithuania available for examination revealed 18 familial cases of OI type I and 22 sporadic cases: OI type II (3 cases), OI type III (11 cases) and OI type I (8 cases). As a result of their molecular genetic investigation, 11 mutations were identified in the COL1A1 gene in 13 unrelated patients. Of them, nine mutations (E500X, G481A, c.2046insCTCTCTAG, c.1668delT, c.1667insC, c.4337insC, IVS19+1G > A, IVS20-2A > G, IVS22-1G > T) appeared to be novel, i.e. not yet registered in the Human Type I and Type III Collagen Mutations Database (http://www.le.ac.uk/genetics/collagen). 相似文献

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), commonly known as "brittle bone disease", is a dominant autosomal disorder characterized by bone fragility and abnormalities of connective tissue. Biochemical and molecular genetic studies have shown that the vast majority of affected individuals have mutations in either the COL1A1 or COL1A2 genes that encode the chains of type I procollagen. OI is associated with a wide spectrum of phenotypes varying from mild to severe and lethal conditions. The mild forms are usually caused by mutations which inactivate one allele of COL1A1 gene and result in a reduced amount of normal type I collagen, while the severe and lethal forms result from dominant negative mutations in COL1A1 or COL1A2 which produce structural defects in the collagen molecule. The most common mutations are substitutions of glycine residues, which are crucial to formation and function of the collagen triple helix, by larger amino acids. Although type I collagen is the major structural protein of both bone and skin, the mutations in type I collagen genes cause a bone disease. Some reports showed that the mutant collagen can be expressed differently in bone and in skin. Since most mutations identified in OI are dominant negative, the gene therapy requires a fundamentally different approach from that used for genetic-recessive disorders. The antisense therapy, by reducing the expression of mutant genes, is able to change a structural mutation into a null mutation, and thus convert severe forms of the disease into mild OI type I. 相似文献

Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is caused by mutations in COL7A1 resulting in reduced or absent type VII collagen, aberrant anchoring fibril formation and subsequent dermal-epidermal fragility. Here, we identify a significant decrease in PLOD3 expression and its encoded protein, the collagen modifying enzyme lysyl hydroxylase 3 (LH3), in RDEB. We show abundant LH3 localising to the basement membrane in normal skin which is severely depleted in RDEB patient skin. We demonstrate expression is in-part regulated by endogenous type VII collagen and that, in agreement with previous studies, even small reductions in LH3 expression lead to significantly less secreted LH3 protein. Exogenous type VII collagen did not alter LH3 expression in cultured RDEB keratinocytes and we show that RDEB patients receiving bone marrow transplantation who demonstrate significant increase in type VII collagen do not show increased levels of LH3 at the basement membrane. Our data report a direct link between LH3 and endogenous type VII collagen expression concluding that reduction of LH3 at the basement membrane in patients with RDEB will likely have significant implications for disease progression and therapeutic intervention. 相似文献

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a skeletal disorder primarily caused by mutations in the type I collagen genes. However, recent investigations have revealed that mutations in the genes encoding for cartilage-associated protein (CRTAP) or prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 (P3H1) can cause a severe, recessive form of OI. These reports show minimal 3-hydroxylation of key proline residues in type I collagen as a result of CRTAP or P3H1 deficiency and demonstrate the importance of P3H1 and CRTAP to bone structure and development. P3H1 and CRTAP have previously been shown to form a stable complex with cyclophilin B, and P3H1 was shown to catalyze the 3-hydroxylation of specific proline residues in procollagen I in vitro. Here we describe a mouse model in which the P3H1 gene has been inactivated. Our data demonstrate abnormalities in collagen fibril ultrastructure in tendons from P3H1 null mice by electron microscopy. Differences are also seen in skin architecture, as well as in developing limbs by histology. Additionally bone mass and strength were significantly lower in the P3H1 mice as compared with wild-type littermates. Altogether these investigations demonstrate disturbances of collagen fiber architecture in tissues rich in fibrillar collagen, including bone, tendon, and skin. This model system presents a good opportunity to study the underlying mechanisms of recessive OI and to better understand its effects in humans. 相似文献

The diversity and prevalence of hereditary diseases (HDs) among Nogais of the Karachay-Cherkess Republic (KChR) are described. The size of the surveyed KChR population was 387231 individuals, including 3.81% Nogais (14741 individuals). We revealed 36 nosological forms of HDs (110 patients from 81 families): 22 with autosomal dominant (AD) inheritance, 10 with autosomal recessive (AR) inheritance, and 4 with X-linked inheritance. The prevalence of HDs in Nogais was 1: 134. The features of HD diversity in Nogais were determined in comparison with the previously surveyed populations of Russia. The accumulation of Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (1: 388), AD amelogenesis imperfecta (1: 3685), AD ichthyosis (1: 4914), AR nonsyndromic mental retardation (1: 1340), AR Gilbert syndrome (1: 4914), and X-linked inherited deficit of glucose-6-dehydrogenase (1: 1774 males) was established. The analysis of heterozygous carriage of mutations “major” for Russia in the genes of the four following AR diseases in 118 unrelated clinically healthy Nogais (236 analyzed chromosomes) was performed: cystic fibrosis (13 mutations in the CFTR gene: CFTRdele2,3 (21 kb), F508del, I507del, 1677delTA, 2184insA, 2143delT, 2183AA>G, 2184delA, 394delTT, 3821delT, L138ins, E92K, W1282X); phenylketonuria (six frequent mutations in the PAH gene: R261X, R408W, R413P, F331S, P211T, P211L); nonsyndromic sensorineural hearing loss (35delG mutation in the GJB2 gene); and Gilbert syndrome (an increase in the number of TA repeats in the UGT1A1 gene). Allelic specificity for all studied genes in the Nogai people was revealed. 相似文献
