Oligohydramnios is not a rare prenatal finding. However, recurrent oligohydramnios is uncommon, and genetic etiology should be taken into consideration. We present two families with recurrent fetal oligohydramnios that did not respond to amnioinfusion. Rapid trio-whole-exome sequencing (WES) revealed mutations in the AGT gene in both families within 1 week. The first family had a compound heterozygous mutation with c.856 + 1G > T and c.857-619_1269 + 243delinsTTGCCTTGC changes. The second family had homozygous c.857-619_1269 + 243delinsTTGCCTTGC mutations. AGT gene mutation may lead to autosomal recessive renal tubular dysgenesis, a rare and lethal disorder that can result in early neonatal death. Both the alleles identified are known alleles associated with pathogenicity. Our findings suggest that trio-WES analysis may help rapidly identify causative etiologies that can inform prompt counseling and decision-making prenatally.

Abstract Introduction: Usher syndrome has a broad phenotypic and genotypic spectrum. Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy-52 (DEE52) is a sever autosomal recessive seizure disorder that is characterized by infantile onset of refractory seizures, consequently resulting in delayed global development. This study aimed to describe the clinical features and to investigate the four variants identified in a Colombian family with Usher syndrome and KCNC2 encephalopathy syndrome.Methods and Results: We present a case of a family with two clinically relevant phenotypes: a mother with a compound heterozygous mutation causing Usher Syndrome, type IIC (USH2C) and her 15-year-old son who carried one heterozygous variant in the KCNC2 gene (p.P470S) and two cis mutations (p.V2927I and p.Q4955EfsTer10) in the ADGRV1 gene segregated from his mother, and a second non-disrupted allele. Owing to this, the boy did not present with USH2C but presented a developmental epilepsy syndrome. His younger sibling was unaffected, although he did inherit the trans mutation in a single pathogenic allele from his mother.Discussion and Conclusion: Whole-exome sequencing helps detect genes related to known and novel hearing loss and seizure syndrome. However, familiar segregation studies are an excellent method to clarify genotype-phenotype correlation in families, where multiple genes of clinically relevant have been identified. This method helps determine the genotype-phenotype relationship of a disease, which is associated with the clinical presentation and determines the pathogenicity of variants that are classified as variants of uncertain clinical significance.

Ciliary Dyskinesia

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a clinical rare peculiar disorder, mainly featured by respiratory infection, tympanitis, nasosinusitis, and male infertility. Previous study demonstrated it is an autosomal recessive disease and by 2017 almost 40 pathologic genes have been identified. Among them are the leucine-rich repeat- (LRR-) containing 6 (LRRC6) codes for a 463-amino-acid cytoplasmic protein, expressed distinctively in motile cilia cells, including the testis cells and the respiratory epithelial cells. In this study, we applied whole-exome sequencing combined with PCD-known genes filtering to explore the genetic lesion of a PCD patient. A novel compound heterozygous mutation in LRRC6 (c.183T>G/p.N61K; c.179-1G>A) was identified and coseparated in this family. The missense mutation (c.183T>G/p.N61K) may lead to a substitution of asparagine by lysine at position 61 in exon 3 of LRRC6. The splice site mutation (c.179-1G>A) may cause a premature stop codon in exon 4 and decrease the mRNA levels of LRRC6. Both mutations were not present in our 200 local controls, dbSNP, and 1000 genomes. Three bioinformatics programs also predicted that both mutations are deleterious. Our study not only further supported the importance of LRRC6 in PCD, but also expanded the spectrum of LRRC6 mutations and will contribute to the genetic diagnosis and counseling of PCD patients.

AbstractBackground:Congenital cataract is one of the major causes of blindness and amblyopia in children. About one-third of the cases are inherited.Case presentation:We applied whole exome sequencing for a pediatric patient with congenital cataract, small penis, baldness and absence of eyebrows and detected a compound heterozygous mutation in the lanosterol synthase (Conclusions:We concluded that the mutations affect the structural stability of the protein to some extent.

Abstract Background Fertilization failure after intracytoplasmic sperm injection continues to affect couples and the etiology is not well-understood. Case presentation We characterized a couple with 2-year history of primary unexplained infertility. Three different assisted reproduction attempts (IVF + rescue ICSI, ICSI and ICSI-AOA) showed repeated fertilization failure for MII oocyte retrieval after controlled ovarian hyperstimulation. After whole-exome sequencing and sanger sequencing of the couple and their family members, variant pathogenicity was assessed using SIFT, PolyPhen2, Mutation Taster, and Human Splicing Finder software. We identified novel compound heterozygous mutations, c.1535 + 3A > G and c.946C > T (p. Leu316Phe), in WEE2 in the female proband. Trios analysis of the variations revealed an autosomal recessive pattern. c.1535 + 3A > G in WEE2 was predicted to break the wild-type donor site and affect splicing, and the missense mutation c.946C > T (p. Leu316Phe) of WEE2 was predicted to be pathogenic. Conclusion A novel compound heterozygous mutation in WEE2 was identified in an infertile female who experienced repeated fertilization failure even after ICSI-AOA. These novel mutations in WEE2 provided genetic evidence for fertilization failure.
