摘要
目的分析Kallmann综合征(Kallmann syndrome,KS)患者KS1(Kallmann syndrome 1,KAL1),前动力蛋白2(prokineticin 2,PROK2)和前动力蛋白受体2(prokineticin receptor 2,PROKR2)3个基因的突变情况。方法 1采用放射免疫分析法检测激素水平,超声扫描评估腹部结构,脑部磁共振成像(magnetic resonance imaging,MRI)检测嗅球、脑沟和内耳的结构。2运用聚合酶链式反应(polymerase chain reaction,PCR),结合PCR产物直接测序技术分析KAL1、PROK2和PROKR2 3个基因外显子突变。3分别利用SIFT、Polyphen和Mutation Taster 3种生物信息学平台进行了错义位点和多态性位点的功能分析。结果1患者青春期发育不良,嗅觉减退,其父母无症状。2在患者基因组中找到2个KAL1杂合突变位点(Ile 565 Thr和Ser 570Thr),5个KAL1基因单核苷酸多态性位点(single nucleotide polymorphism,SNP):Val 534 Ile、Val 560 Phe、Gly 567 Ser、Lys 666 Met和Agr 668 His,以及一个PROKR2纯合突变位点(Tyr 113 His)。同时也在患者父母基因组中检测到PROKR2杂合突变位点(Y113H)。3生物信息学分析结果显示I565T、S570T和Y113H(PROKR2)3个位点可能是该患者的致病基因位点。结论这2个新的突变位点还未在中国人群中报道过,这也是国内报道的第1例同时带有2个KAL1突变和一个PROKR2突变的KS患者,表明该患者可能是一个双基因遗传的KS患者。
Objective To analyze the mutation of Kallmann syndrome 1（KAL1）, prokineticin（PROK2） and prokineticin receptor 2 （PROKR2） in a family, which has a 13-year-old son with Kallmann syndrome（KS）. Methods ① Hormone levels were measured by immunoradiometric assay, abdomen structures were assessed by abdominal ultrasound scan, brain magnetic resonance imaging（MRI） was used to visualize the olfactory bulbs, sulci, and inner ears; ② The exon sequences of the three genes（KAL1, PROK2 and PROKR2） were screened for a mutation by direct sequencing; ③ SIFT, Polyphen and MutationTaster were used as a complementary approach to assess the significance of polymorphisms and missense mutations. Results ① The patient had sexual infantilism, and the MRI of the head revealed the dysplasia of olfactory bulbs and olfactory tract; the parents of this patient had normal pubertal development, serum gonadotropin and estradiol concentrations, and their MRI results showed normal olfactory bulbs; ② In KAL1 gene, two novel mutations（I565T and S570T） and five previously described polymorphisms（V534I, V560F, G567S, K666M and R668H） were detected in this patient. In PROKR2 gene, a homozygous Y113H was presented in this patient, and this mutation was also detected in the heterozygous state in his parents; ③I565T, Y113H （PROKR2） and S570T may be the harmful variation according to our stringent analysis. Conclusion To date, these two novel mutations have not yet been reported in the Chinese population, and this is the first case of KS patient who exhibited two-point mutation in KAL1 and was also carried a missense mutation in PROKR2, thus indicating a possible digenic inheritance of the disease in this individual.
