精神发育迟滞(旧称智力低下)作为儿科神经科常见的一组疾患,具有高度的遗传和表型异质性,大约25%~50%的精神发育迟滞是由遗传因素引起的,其中X染色体基因/基因组变异占25%~30%,导致X连锁的精神发育迟滞。X连锁的精神发育迟滞患者占所有精神发育迟滞患者的10%~15%以上,约20%~25%的男性精神发育迟滞归因于X连锁的精神发育迟滞。精神发育迟滞男女患病比例为1.3:1,这与男性只有一条X染色体的遗传背景有关。随着新一代基因组检测技术的快速发展和临床应用,尤其是全外显子测序、高深度测序、X染色体深度测序和全基因组芯片杂交,这些大大改善了精神发育迟滞患者的X染色体基因/基因组变异检出。本文综述了致精神发育迟滞的X染色体基因组/基因变异特点、其对男性精神发育迟滞的致病性,以及如何采用新测序技术提高检出率,旨在促进科研人员认识X染色体变异在男性精神发育迟滞的致病性,拓宽精神发育迟滞遗传病因的认识,同时也为遗传咨询和产前诊断提供理论依据。 相似文献

OPHN1基因编码RhoGTP酶激活蛋白(RhoGAP), 是X连锁的与非特异性精神发育迟滞有关的基因之一。采用PCR-RFLP方法, 对234名陕西秦巴山区正常的汉族儿童以及精神发育迟滞(Mental retardation, MR)患者的OPHN1基因5′非翻译区中的单核苷酸多态位点(Single nucleotide polymorphism, SNP) rs492933的等位基因频率和基因型频率以及是否与非特异精神发育迟滞相关进行分析。结果发现: 这一位点基因频率C为0.826, T为0.174; MR组与对照组之间基因型频率和基因频率没有显著性差异, 边缘组与对照组之间基因型频率和基因频率也没有显著性差异。证明OPHN1基因内SNP rs492933的多态性与秦巴山区汉族儿童精神发育迟滞不存在相关性。 相似文献

用来自中国中西部秦巴山区的非特异性精神发育迟滞患者及正常对照人群为样本, 通过研究分别位于GDI1基因第7外显子剪接区和第8外显子上的rs2276462和rs11549300两个功能SNP位点的多态性, 探索GDI1基因的多态现象与当地儿童的精神发育迟滞及其智力水平的相关性。在样本人群中仅观察到rs11549300位点的多态现象, 而rs2276462位点在秦巴山区儿童中十分保守。病例-对照分析结果显示, rs11549300位点多态性与秦巴山区儿童的非特异性精神发育迟滞无显著相关性(P>0.05), 但是其多态现象可能与当地儿童的智力水平有一定的相关性(P=0.03), 但是这一结论还需要在更大样本中, 通过选择更多的遗传标记来进一步确证。 相似文献

Mutations in the p21-activated kinase 3 gene (pak3) are responsible for nonsyndromic forms of mental retardation. Expression of mutated PAK3 proteins in hippocampal neurons induces abnormal dendritic spine morphology and long term potentiation anomalies, whereas pak3 gene invalidation leads to cognitive impairments. How PAK3 regulates synaptic plasticity is still largely unknown. To better understand how PAK3 affects neuronal synaptic plasticity, we focused on its interaction with the Nck adaptors that play a crucial role in PAK signaling. We report here that PAK3 interacts preferentially with Nck2/Grb4 in brain extracts and in transfected cells. This interaction is independent of PAK3 kinase activity. Selective uncoupling of the Nck2 interactions in acute cortical slices using an interfering peptide leads to a rapid increase in evoked transmission to pyramidal neurons. The P12A mutation in the PAK3 protein strongly decreases the interaction with Nck2 but only slightly with Nck1. In transfected hippocampal cultures, expression of the P12A-mutated protein has no effect on spine morphogenesis or synaptic density. The PAK3-P12A mutant does not affect synaptic transmission, whereas the expression of the wild-type PAK3 protein decreases the amplitude of spontaneous miniature excitatory currents. Altogether, these data show that PAK3 down-regulates synaptic transmission through its interaction with Nck2. 相似文献

PAK5 is a member of the group B family of PAK serine/threonine kinases and is an effector for the Rho GTPase Cdc42. PAK5 is highly expressed in the brain and is expressed at lower levels in several other tissues. In cell lines, PAK5 has been shown to play a role in filopodia formation and neurite outgrowth. To examine the biological function of PAK5, we deleted the PAK5 gene in mice. The phenotypes of the PAK5-null mice are completely different from those of mice null for PAK4, another member of the group B PAK family. Unlike PAK4-null mice, which are embryonic lethal, PAK5-null mice develop normally and are fertile. The nervous system appears normal in the absence of PAK5, as do other tissues in which PAK5 is normally expressed. Our results suggest functional redundancy between PAK5 and other Rho GTPase targets. 相似文献

p21‐activated kinase 7 (PAK7), also named as PAK5, is a member of Rac/Cdc42‐associated Ser/Thr protein kinases. It is overexpressed in some types of cancer such as colorectal and pancreatic cancers. However, the expression status and biological function of PAK7 in osteosarcoma are still ambiguous. To evaluate the expression levels of PAK7 in osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines, immunohistochemistry was used. To investigate the role of PAK7 in cell proliferation, apoptosis and tumorigenicity in vitro and vivo, a recombinant lentivirus expressing PAK7 short hairpin RNA (Lv‐shPAK7) was developed and transfected into Saos‐2 cells. The silencing effect of PAK7 was confirmed by quantitative real‐time PCR (qRT‐PCR) and Western blot technique. PAK7 was overexpressed in osteosarcoma tissue and cell line. By knocking‐down of PAK7, the proliferation and colony formation of Saos‐2 cells were inhibited and apoptosis enhanced significantly. The in vivo tumorigenic ability in xenograft model of Saos‐2 cells was also notably inhibited when PAK7 was knocked down. Our results imply that PAK7 promotes cell proliferation and tumorigenesis and may be an attractive candidate for the therapeutic target of osteosarcoma. 相似文献

Several of the genes currently known to be associated, when mutated, with mental retardation, code for molecules directly
involved in Rho guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) signaling. These include PAK3, a member of the PAK protein kinase family,
which are important effectors of small GTPases. In many systems, PAK kinases play crucial roles regulating complex mechanisms
such as cell migration, differentiation, or survival. Their precise functions in the central nervous system remain, however,
unclear. Although their activity does not seem to be required for normal brain development, several recent studies point to
a possible involvement in more subtle mechanisms such as neurite outgrowth, spine morphogenesis or synapse formation, and
plasticity. This article reviews this information in the light of the current knowledge available on the molecular characteristics
of the different members of this family and discuss the mechanisms through which they might contribute to cognitive functions. 相似文献

The p21-activated kinase 3 (PAK3) and the serum and glucocorticoid-induced kinase 2 (SGK2) have been previously proposed as essential kinases for human papillomavirus positive (HPV+) cervical cancer cell survival. This was established using a shRNA knockdown approach. To validate PAK3 and SGK2 as potential targets for HPV+ cervical cancer therapy, the relationship between shRNA-induced phenotypes in HPV+ cervical cancer cells and PAK3 or SGK2 knockdown was carefully examined. We observed that the phenotypes of HPV+ cervical cancer cells induced by various PAK3 and SGK2 shRNAs could not be rescued by complement expression of respective cDNA constructs. A knockdown-deficient PAK3 shRNA with a single mismatch was sufficient to inhibit HeLa cell growth to a similar extent as wild-type PAK3 shRNA. The HPV+ cervical cancer cells were also susceptible to several non-human target shRNAs. The discrepancy between PAK3 and SGK2 shRNA-induced apoptosis and gene expression knockdown, as well as cell death stimulation, suggested that these shRNAs killed HeLa cells through different pathways that may not be target-specific. These data demonstrated that HPV+ cervical cancer cell death was not associated with RNAi-induced PAK3 and SGK2 knockdown but likely through off-target effects. 相似文献
