Purpose

High throughput sequencing analysis has facilitated the rapid analysis of the entire titin (TTN) coding sequence. This has resulted in the identification of a growing number of recessive titinopathy patients. The aim of this study was to (1) characterize the causative genetic variants and clinical features of the largest cohort of recessive titinopathy patients reported to date and (2) to evaluate genotype–phenotype correlations in this cohort.

Methods

We analyzed clinical and genetic data in a cohort of patients with biallelic pathogenic or likely pathogenic TTN variants. The cohort included both previously reported cases (100 patients from 81 unrelated families) and unreported cases (23 patients from 20 unrelated families).

Results

Overall, 132 causative variants were identified in cohort members. More than half of the cases had hypotonia at birth or muscle weakness and a delayed motor development within the first 12 months of life (congenital myopathy) with causative variants located along the entire gene. The remaining patients had a distal or proximal phenotype and a childhood or later (noncongenital) onset. All noncongenital cases had at least one pathogenic variant in one of the final three TTN exons (362–364).

Conclusion

Our findings suggest a novel association between the location of nonsense variants and the clinical severity of the disease.

隐性肌动蛋白病中的基因型-表型相关性。

目的

高通量测序分析促进了整个titin ( TTN ) 编码序列的快速分析。这导致识别出越来越多的隐性肌腱病患者。本研究的目的是 (1) 描述迄今为止报道的最大的隐性肌腱病患者队列的致病基因变异和临床特征,以及 (2) 评估该队列中的基因型 - 表型相关性。

方法

我们分析了一组具有双等位基因致病性或可能致病性TTN变异的患者的临床和遗传数据。该队列包括先前报告的病例(来自 81 个无关家庭的 100 名患者)和未报告的病例(来自 20 个无关家庭的 23 名患者)。

结果

总体而言,在队列成员中发现了 132 个致病变异。超过一半的病例在出生时出现肌张力减退或肌肉无力,并且在生命的前 12 个月内出现运动发育迟缓(先天性肌病),致病变异位于整个基因上。其余患者具有远端或近端表型和儿童期或更晚(非先天性)发病。所有非先天性病例在最后三个TTN外显子之一中至少有一个致病性变异(362-364)。

结论

我们的研究结果表明无意义变异的位置与疾病的临床严重程度之间存在新的关联。
