Citrin缺陷导致的新生儿肝内胆汁淤积症患儿SLC25A13基因突变与生化指标的相关性研究*

 目的：分析citrin缺陷导致的新生儿肝内胆汁淤积症(NICCD)患儿SLC25A13基因突变及生化改变特点,并探讨两者相关性。方法：2013年3月至2013年10月在暨南大学附属第一医院以胆汁淤积性肝病就诊的婴儿59例,其中经SLC25A13基因分析确诊的NICCD患儿36例为病例组,排除NICCD且未发现明确病因的23例特发性新生儿胆汁淤积症(INC)患儿为对照组。抽取静脉血提取DNA进行SLC25A13突变检测,并分析所有研究对象的血糖、丙氨酸氨基转移酶（ALT）、天门冬氨酸氨基转移酶（AST）、γ-谷氨酰转移酶（GGT）、碱性磷酸酶（ALP）、甘油三酯（TG）、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇（HDL-C）和低密度脂蛋白胆固醇（LDL-C）等数据资料。结果：NICCD组ALT及LDL-C水平低于对照组。检出SLC25A13基因突变10种,其中851del4、IVS16ins3kb、IVS6+5G>A和1638ins23 突变占全部突变数量的82%。不同性别及年龄段的NICCD患儿其SLC25A13基因突变分布未见不同。SLC25A13基因突变与患儿的血糖、ALT、AST、ALP、TG及HDL-C水平无关联,而与GTT的水平有关联。结论：低LDL-C血症可能是NICCD患儿血脂紊乱的特点。NICCD患儿SLC25A13基因的高频突变类型为851del4、IVS16ins3kb、IVS6+5G>A和1638ins23。本文NICCD患儿的SLC25A13突变分布与GGT水平之间存在相关性,但这一发现的意义有待深入研究。

Six cases of citrin deficiency in Korea

Citrin deficiency resulting from mutations of the SLC25A13 gene is associated with two major clinical phenotypes; neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD) and adult-onset type 2 citrullinemia (CTLN2). In Korea, 6 cases of citrin deficiency were diagnosed based on biochemical and molecular findings. Four NICCD patients (2 boys and 2 girls) presented high citrulline levels on a newborn screening test or neonatal cholestasis. They were associated with conjugated hyperbilirubinemia, elevated liver enzymes, hypoalbuminemia, mild hyperammonemia, elevated citrulline, methionine and threonine. All of the hepatic manifestations were resolved spontaneously at the age of 5-9 months. Mutation analysis identified them as compound heterozygotes carrying each of the c.851del4, IVS11+1G>A, IVS13+1G>A, G393S, and IVS16ins3kb mutant alleles. Two adult male CTLN2 patients were identified. They were aged 24 and 37 years, and presented sudden loss of consciousness, hyperammonemia and citrullinemia. They were compound heterozygotes with IVS13+1G>A and IVS16ins3kb, and with c.851del4 and IVS11+1G>A mutant alleles. This report describes the clinical characteristics, biochemical findings and molecular analysis of the SLC25A13 gene of patients with citrin deficiency in Korea.

Clinical, biochemical and molecular characterization of cystinuria in a cohort of 12 patients

Cystinuria is a rare autosomal inherited disorder characterized by impaired transport of cystine and dibasic aminoacids in the proximal renal tubule. Classically, cystinuria is classified as type I (silent heterozygotes) and non-type I (heterozygotes with urinary hyperexcretion of cystine). Molecularly, cystinuria is classified as type A (mutations on SLC3A1 gene) and type B (mutations on SLC7A9 gene). The goal of this study is to provide a comprehensive clinical, biochemical and molecular characterization of a cohort of 12 Portuguese patients affected with cystinuria in order to provide insight into genotype-phenotype correlations. We describe seven type I and five non-type I patients. Regarding the molecular classification, seven patients were type A and five were type B. In SLC3A1 gene, two large genomic rearrangements and 13 sequence variants, including four new variants c.611-2A>C; c.1136+44G>A; c.1597T (p.Y533N); c.*70A>G, were found. One large genomic rearrangement was found in SLC7A9 gene as well as 24 sequence variants including 3 novel variants: c.216C>T (p.C72C), c.1119G>A (p.S373S) and c.*82C>T. In our cohort the most frequent pathogenic mutations were: large rearrangements (33.3% of mutant alleles) and a missense mutation c.1400T>C (p.M467T) (11.1%). This report expands the spectrum of SLC3A1 and SLC7A9 mutations and provides guidance in the clinical implementation of molecular assays in routine genetic counseling of Portuguese patients affected with cystinuria.

Neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency in Korean infants

Citrin is a liver-type mitochondrial aspartate-glutamate carrier encoded by the SLC25A13 gene, and its deficiency causes adult-onset type II citrullinemia and neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD). Here, the authors investigated clinical findings in Korean infants with NICCD and performed mutation analysis on the SLC25A13 gene. Of 47 patients with neonatal cholestasis, three infants had multiple aminoacidemia (involving citrulline, methionine, and arginine) and galactosemia, and thus were diagnosed as having NICCD. Two of these three showed failure to thrive. The laboratory findings showed hypoproteinemia and hyperammonemia, and liver biopsies revealed micro-macrovesicular fatty liver and cholestasis. The three patients each harbored compound heterozygous 1,638-1,660 dup/ S225X mutation, compound heterozygous 851del4/S225X mutation, and heterozygous 1,638-1,660 dup mutation, respectively. With nutritional manipulation, liver functions were normalized and catch-up growth was achieved. NICCD should be considered in the differential diagnosis of cholestatic jaundice in Korean infants.
