        A novel CHD7 variant in a chinese family with CHARGE syndrome

        Shan Yanhong,Yao LingFang,Li Linli,Gao Xueping,Jiang Jinghan 한국유전학회 2024 Genes & Genomics Vol.46 No.3

        Objective CHARGE syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant (AD) multi-system disorder with a broad and variable clinical manifestation and occurs in approximately 1/10,000 newborns in the world. Mutations in the CHD7 gene are the genetic cause of over 90% of patients with typical CHARGE syndrome. The present study reported a novel variant in the CHD7 gene in a Chinese family with an abnormal fetus. Methods Routine prenatal ultrasound screening showed fetal heart abnormality and left foot varus. Chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) and fetus-parent whole-exome sequencing (trio-WES) were performed to determine the genetic cause of the fetus. The candidate variant was further verified using Sanger sequencing. Results CMA analysis revealed normal results. However, WES analysis identified a de novo heterozygous variant of c.2919_2922del (NM_017780.4) on exon 11 of CHD7 gene, resulting in a premature truncation of the CHD7 protein (p.Gly975*). The variant was classified as Pathogenic (PVS1 + PS2_Moderate + PM2_Supporting) based on the ACMG guidelines. Combined with the clinical phenotype of fetal heart abnormalities, it was confirmed CHARGE syndrome. Conclusion We identified a novel heterozygous variant c.2919_2922del in CHD7 of a Chinese fetus with CHARGE syndrome, enriching the genotype-phenotype spectrum of CHD7. These results suggest that genetic testing could help facilitate prenatal diagnosis of CHARGE syndrome, thus promoting the appropriate genetic counseling.

        Metagenomics analysis of the gut microbiome in healthy and bacterial pneumonia forest musk deer

        Wei Zhao,Ziwei Ren,Yan Luo,Jianguo Cheng,Jie Wang,Yin Wang,Zexiao Yang,Xueping Yao,Zhijun Zhong,Wei Yang,Xi Wu 한국유전학회 2021 Genes & Genomics Vol.43 No.1

        Background The forest musk deer (FMD, Moschus berezovskii) is an threatened species in China. Bacterial pneumonia was found to seriously restrict the development of FMD captive breeding. Historical evidence has demonstrated the relationship between immune system and intestinal Lactobacillus in FMD. Objective We sought to elucidate the diferences in the gut microbiota of healthy and bacterial pneumonia FMD. Methods The bacterial pneumonia FMD was demonstrated by bacterial and pathological diagnosis, and the gut microbiome of healthy and bacterial pneumonia FMD was sequenced and analysed. Results There are three pathogens (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus equinus and Trueperella pyogenes) isolated from the bacterial pneumonia FMD individuals. Compared with the healthy group, the abundance of Firmicutes and Proteobacteria in the pneumonia group was changed, and a high level of Proteobacteria was found in the pneumonia group. In addition, a higher abundance of Acinetobacter (p=0.01) was observed in the population of the pneumonia group compared with the healthy group. Several potentially harmful bacteria and disease-related KEGG subsystems were only found in the gut of the bacterial pneumonia group. Analysis of KEGG revealed that many genes related to type IV secretion system, type IV pilus, lipopolysaccharide export system, HTH-type transcriptional regulator/antitoxin MqsA, and ArsR family transcriptional regulator were signifcantly enriched in the metagenome of the bacterial pneumonia FMD. Conclusion Our results demonstrated that the gut microbiome was signifcantly altered in the bacterial pneumonia group. Overall, our research improves the understanding of the potential role of the gut microbiota in the FMD bacterial pneumonia.
