21 Hydroxylase Deficiency

Abstract Background Steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder, present in 90–95% of all cases with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). The classical simple virilizing (SV) form of the disease causes virilization of the external genitalia in newborn females and pseudo-precocious puberty in both sexes, due to reactive androgen overproduction. Case presentation We describe a 3.5-year-old girl presenting with pubarche, P2 according to Tanner, advanced bone age of 6 years and 10 months, and high serum levels of 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP). Molecular analysis of the nine most common pseudogene-derived CYP21A2 point mutations was performed in the patient and her family members using the polymerase chain reaction/amplification-created restriction site (PCR/ACRS) method. We detected the P30L/I172N genotype in the patient. She had inherited a mild P30L mutation from her mother and a severe I172N mutation from her father. Conclusions Although the CAH phenotype is determined by the allele that produces most of the enzyme activity and the mild non-classical (NC) phenotype should be expected, the mild P30L known to be more virilizing probably induced the classical SV phenotype in our patient. A continuous regimen of hydrocortisone at a recommended dose failed to decrease the 17-OHP sufficiently. Careful tapering of the dose did not help, and her pubic hair advanced to P3 according to Tanner. Individually tailored treatment is warranted in this patient.

21 Hydroxylase Deficiency

Abstract Background The genotype-phenotype relationship shows regional variability in 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) caused by mutations in the CYP21A2 gene. This study focuses on the genotype-phenotype compatibility between patients and their siblings in a region where consanguineous marriage is common. Methods The most common mutations (I2G-P30L-I172N-V237E-M239K-V281L-Q318X-R356W-F306 + nt) were studied in 60 children with 21-OHD and 40 siblings (12 symptomatic and 28 asymptomatic; mean age 5.89 ± 4.63 and 8.34 ± 2.22 years, respectively). The allele number (patients; 93 siblings; 70 alleles) was counted for each case. Salt wasting (SW; n = 38), simple virilizing (SV; n = 11) and non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (NCCAH; n = 11) types were compared with their genotypes classified into groups Null-AB-C-D-E based on enzyme impairment. Results Disease-causing mutations were identified in unrelated alleles: 80 out of 93 alleles (86%) in the patients: SW, 51/56 (91%); SV, 14/16 (87.4%) and NCCAH, 15/21 (71.4%). There were 43 out of 70 alleles (61.4%) in the siblings (asymptomatic, 25/50 [50%]; symptomatic, 18/20 [90%]). The most frequently detected mutations in the patients were: I2G (22%), Q318X-P30L-V281L (13% each). The distribution of the most common mutations by clinical types was: SW: I2G-Q318X (30.2%-19.6%), SV: I172NI2G (37.5%-18.7%), NCCAH: V281L-P30L (33.3%-28.5%). In patients and symptomatic siblings, the concordance percentages by genotype groups were: Null (100%-100%), A (85%-60%), B (100%-Not applicable), C (41.6%-50%). Eleven out of 28 asymptomatic siblings had disease-causing mutations (four, severe; one, moderate; six, mild). The distribution of genotypes by phenotypes were: SW: Null-A (88%), SV: B-A (50%-41.6%), NCCAH: C (100%). Conclusions This study showed that the most common alleles were IN2G-Q381X-R356W-P30L-V281L in the children with 21-OHD and asymptomatic siblings, and that the phenotype can be predicted from the genotype except for the P30L-V281L. This result suggests that the most common mutations in 21-OHD are similar to previous reports, but that the genotype-phenotype compatibility is good except for group C showing regional variability, and that genotyping of siblings discovered new patients.
