Background

Causative mutations of PBX1 are associated with congenital abnormalities of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT), often accompanied by hearing loss, abnormal ear morphology, or developmental delay. The aim of the present investigation was to introduce a novel variant in the PBX1 gene identified in a Chinese family, leading to recurrent neonatal mortality.

Methods

A pregnant woman (gravida 5, para 0), who had experienced recurrent neonatal deaths, sought genetic etiology diagnosis. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was conducted to identify sequence variants and copy number variants in the fetus presenting with posterior nuchal cystic hygroma and fetal hydrops.

Results

A novel NM_002585.4:c.694G>C(p.D232H) in PBX1 was identified in the fetus through trio whole exome sequencing (WES), revealing a paternal mosaic PBX1 variant in blood at 11.54% (6/52 variants reads). Subsequent parental Sanger sequencing confirmed the variant detected by WES. Ultimately, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic, leading the family to elect pregnancy termination at 17 weeks gestation.

Conclusion

The novel variant in the PBX1 gene appears to be a significant factor contributing to recurrent neonatal deaths in the Chinese family. Such findings expand the spectrum of PBX1 gene variants and provide valuable perinatal guidance for diagnosing fetuses with PBX1 mutations.

背景:PBX1基因的致病突变与先天性肾脏和泌尿道畸形(CAKUT)有关,常伴有听力损失、耳形态异常或发育迟缓。本研究旨在介绍在一个中国家庭中发现的导致新生儿反复死亡的 PBX1 基因新型变异:方法:一名孕妇(孕5,para 0)反复出现新生儿死亡,寻求遗传学病因诊断。方法:一名孕妇(妊娠期 5+0 段)因反复出现新生儿死亡而寻求遗传学病因诊断,并进行了全外显子组测序(WES),以鉴定出现后颈部囊性透明带和胎儿水肿的胎儿中的序列变异和拷贝数变异:结果:通过三重全外显子组测序(WES),在胎儿体内发现了PBX1中的一个新型NM_002585.4:c.694G>C(p.D232H)变异。随后的亲本 Sanger 测序证实了 WES 检测到的变异。最终,该变异被归类为可能致病,导致该家庭在妊娠 17 周时选择终止妊娠:结论:PBX1 基因的新型变异似乎是导致该中国家庭新生儿反复死亡的一个重要因素。这些发现扩大了 PBX1 基因变异的范围,为诊断 PBX1 基因突变的胎儿提供了有价值的围产期指导。

Background

When developing new antimalarial drugs, considering their potential use during pregnancy as preventive or curative therapy is crucial. This prevents the parasite from affecting embryonic development and reduces maternal and fetal death risks. Consequently, understanding the exposure and safety of antimalarial drugs during pregnancy is crucial, with well-designed animal studies playing a key role in this assessment.

Methods

As part of the drug development program for cabamiquine, a series of developmental and reproductive toxicity studies were conducted in rats and rabbits. Additionally, the zebrafish embryo model was used to further improve embryo exposure, minimize confounding factors related to maternal toxicity, and assess developmental risks of cabamiquine.

Results

In these studies, although maternal toxicity was observed, there were no cabamiquine-related adverse effects on fertility, embryonic, or fetal development at maternal exposures representing significant multiples (up to five and 10 times higher in rabbit and rats, respectively) than the exposure at the anticipated efficacious human dose. Similarly, no adverse effects were observed on ZF embryonic development, even though cabamiquine concentrations in the embryos were 10-fold higher than nominal concentrations.

Conclusions

The results obtained in a full set of reproductive toxicity studies did not provide evidence of detrimental effects on the conceptuses and progeny at maternally nontoxic doses and exposures, still representing a multiple of the anticipated systemic exposures in women of childbearing potential (WOCBP). Cabamiquine can therefore be considered a suitable therapeutic option for WOCBP and pregnant women living in malaria-endemic regions by significantly reducing maternal and infant malaria death rates.

背景:在开发新的抗疟药物时,考虑其在孕期作为预防或治疗的潜在用途至关重要。这可以防止寄生虫影响胚胎发育,降低孕产妇和胎儿死亡的风险。因此,了解抗疟药物在孕期的接触情况和安全性至关重要,而精心设计的动物实验在这一评估中发挥着关键作用:方法:作为卡马喹药物开发计划的一部分,我们在大鼠和兔子身上进行了一系列发育和生殖毒性研究。此外,还使用了斑马鱼胚胎模型,以进一步改善胚胎暴露,最大限度地减少与母体毒性相关的干扰因素,并评估卡巴米金的发育风险:结果:在这些研究中,虽然观察到了母体毒性,但在母体暴露量是预期人体有效剂量暴露量的显著倍数(兔子和大鼠分别高达 5 倍和 10 倍)的情况下,没有观察到卡巴米金对生育能力、胚胎或胎儿发育的不良影响。同样,即使胚胎中的卡巴米金浓度比标称浓度高出 10 倍,也未观察到对 ZF 胚胎发育的不利影响:全套生殖毒性研究结果表明,在母体无毒的剂量和暴露量下,卡巴匹啶不会对胚胎和后代产生有害影响,其剂量和暴露量仍然是育龄妇女(WOCBP)预计全身暴露量的数倍。因此,对于生活在疟疾流行地区的育龄妇女和孕妇来说,卡马喹是一种合适的治疗选择,可显著降低母婴疟疾死亡率。

On January 12, 2024 the safety committee of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommended precautionary measures over a potential risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in children born to men treated with valproate. These new measures recommend patient supervision by a specialist in the management of epilepsy, bipolar disorder, or migraine. In the United Kingdom, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) issued a far more stringent precaution, warning against prescribing valproate to anyone under 55 years of age. We, members of the European Network of Teratology Information Services (ENTIS) and the Organization of Teratology Information Specialists (OTIS), believe that the EMA and MHRA warnings were premature. We are of the opinion that the underlying scientific data do not convincingly substantiate the inference of a paternally mediated risk from valproate to children, much less to an extent that justifies these far-reaching recommendations.

2024 年 1 月 12 日,欧洲药品管理局(EMA)安全委员会建议采取预防措施,以应对丙戊酸钠治疗男性所生子女出现神经发育障碍的潜在风险。这些新措施建议由癫痫、双相情感障碍或偏头痛治疗专家对患者进行监护。在英国,药品和保健品监管局(MHRA)发布了更为严格的预防措施,警告不要向 55 岁以下的任何人开丙戊酸钠处方。我们作为欧洲畸胎信息服务网络(ENTIS)和畸胎信息专家组织(OTIS)的成员,认为欧洲药品管理局和英国药品和保健品管理局的警告为时过早。我们认为,基本的科学数据并不能令人信服地证实丙戊酸钠对儿童的风险是由父亲介导的,更不能证明这些影响深远的建议是合理的。

Introduction

Traditional strategies for grouping congenital heart defects (CHDs) using birth defect registry data do not adequately address differences in expected clinical consequences between different combinations of CHDs. We report a lesion-specific classification system for birth defect registry–based outcome studies.

Methods

For Core Cardiac Lesion Outcome Classifications (C-CLOC) groups, common CHDs expected to have reasonable clinical homogeneity were defined. Criteria based on combinations of Centers for Disease and Control-modified British Pediatric Association (BPA) codes were defined for each C-CLOC group. To demonstrate proof of concept and retention of reasonable case counts within C-CLOC groups, Texas Birth Defect Registry data (1999–2017 deliveries) were used to compare case counts and neonatal mortality between traditional vs. C-CLOC classification approaches.

Results

C-CLOC defined 59 CHD groups among 62,262 infants with CHDs. Classifying cases into the single, mutually exclusive C-CLOC group reflecting the highest complexity CHD present reduced case counts among lower complexity lesions (e.g., 86.5% of cases with a common atrium BPA code were reclassified to a higher complexity group for a co-occurring CHD). As expected, C-CLOC groups had retained larger sample sizes (i.e., representing presumably better-powered analytic groups) compared to cases with only one CHD code and no occurring CHDs.

Discussion

This new CHD classification system for investigators using birth defect registry data, C-CLOC, is expected to balance clinical outcome homogeneity in analytic groups while maintaining sufficiently large case counts within categories, thus improving power for CHD-specific outcome association comparisons. Future outcome studies utilizing C-CLOC-based classifications are planned.

导言:利用出生缺陷登记数据对先天性心脏缺陷(CHD)进行分组的传统策略并不能充分解决不同CHD组合之间预期临床后果的差异。我们报告了一种基于出生缺陷登记结果研究的病变特异性分类系统:对于核心心脏病变结果分类(C-CLOC)组,定义了预期具有合理临床同质性的常见 CHD。为每个 C-CLOC 组定义了基于疾病与控制中心(Centers for Disease and Control)修改后的英国儿科协会(British Pediatric Association,BPA)代码组合的标准。为了证明概念和在 C-CLOC 组内保留合理的病例数,我们使用德克萨斯州出生缺陷登记数据(1999-2017 年分娩情况)比较了传统分类方法与 C-CLOC 分类方法的病例数和新生儿死亡率:结果:C-CLOC 在 62,262 名患有先天性心脏病的婴儿中定义了 59 个先天性心脏病组。将病例归入单一的、相互排斥的 C-CLOC 组别,反映了复杂程度最高的 CHD,这减少了复杂程度较低的病变的病例数(例如,86.5% 的具有普通心房 BPA 代码的病例被重新归入复杂程度较高的组别,因为并发了 CHD)。不出所料,与仅有一个CHD代码且未发生CHD的病例相比,C-CLOC组保留了更大的样本量(即代表了可能更好的分析组):讨论:对于使用出生缺陷登记数据的研究人员来说,C-CLOC 这一新的 CHD 分类系统有望平衡分析组中临床结果的同质性,同时在分类中保持足够大的病例数,从而提高 CHD 特异性结果关联比较的功率。我们计划在未来利用基于C-CLOC的分类进行结果研究。

Background

Folate and vitamin B12 deficiencies in pregnant women are associated with increased risk for adverse maternal and infant health outcomes, including neural tube defects (NTDs).

Methods

A population-based cross-sectional survey was conducted in two rural areas in Ambala District, Haryana, India in 2017 to assess baseline folate and vitamin B12 status among women of reproductive age (WRA) and predict the prevalence of NTDs. We calculated the prevalence of folate and vitamin B12 deficiency and insufficiency by demographic characteristics among 775 non-pregnant, non-lactating WRA (18–49 years). Using red blood cell (RBC) folate distributions and an established Bayesian model, we predicted NTD prevalence. All analyses were conducted using SAS-callable SUDAAN Version 11.0.4 to account for complex survey design.

Results

Among WRA, 10.1% (95% CI: 7.9, 12.7) and 9.3% (95% CI: 7.4, 11.6) had serum (<7 nmol/L) and RBC folate (<305 nmol/L) deficiency, respectively. The prevalence of RBC folate insufficiency (<748 nmol/L) was 78.3% (95% CI: 75.0, 81.3) and the predicted NTD prevalence was 21.0 (95% uncertainly interval: 16.9, 25.9) per 10,000 live births. Prevalences of vitamin B12 deficiency (<200 pg/mL) and marginal deficiency (≥200 pg/mL and ≤300 pg/mL) were 57.7% (95% CI: 53.9, 61.4) and 23.5% (95% CI: 20.4, 26.9), respectively.

Conclusions

The magnitude of folate insufficiency and vitamin B12 deficiency in this Northern Indian population is a substantial public health concern. The findings from the survey help establish the baseline against which results from future post-fortification surveys can be compared.

背景:孕妇叶酸和维生素 B12 缺乏与孕产妇和婴儿不良健康结果(包括神经管缺陷(NTD))的风险增加有关:2017年,我们在印度哈里亚纳邦安巴拉县的两个农村地区开展了一项基于人群的横断面调查,以评估育龄妇女(WRA)的叶酸和维生素B12基线状况,并预测NTD的患病率。我们根据人口统计学特征计算了 775 名非怀孕、非哺乳期 WRA(18-49 岁)中叶酸和维生素 B12 缺乏和不足的患病率。利用红细胞(RBC)叶酸分布和已建立的贝叶斯模型,我们对 NTD 患病率进行了预测。所有分析均使用可调用的 SAS SUDAAN 11.0.4 版进行,以考虑复杂的调查设计:在 WRA 中,10.1%(95% CI:7.9, 12.7)和 9.3%(95% CI:7.4, 11.6)的人血清中含有叶酸:印度北部人口叶酸不足和维生素 B12 缺乏的严重程度是一个重大的公共卫生问题。此次调查的结果有助于建立基线,以便对未来营养强化后的调查结果进行比较。

Background

Brownfields consist of abandoned and disused sites, spanning many former purposes. Brownfields represent a heterogenous yet ubiquitous exposure for many Americans, which may contain hazardous wastes and represent urban blight. Neonates and pregnant individuals are often sensitive to subtle environmental exposures. We evaluate if residential exposure to lead (Pb) brownfields is associated with birth defects.

Methods

Using North Carolina birth records from 2003 to 2015, we sampled 169,499 births within 10 km of a Pb brownfield with 3255 cardiovascular, central nervous, or external defects identified. Exposure was classified by binary specification of residing within 3 km of a Pb brownfield. We utilized multivariable logistic regression models adjusted for demographic covariates available from birth records and 2010 Census to estimate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Effect measure modification was assessed by inclusion of interaction terms and stratification for the potential modifiers of race/ethnicity and diabetes status.

Results

We observed positive associations between cardiovascular birth defects and residential proximity to Pb brownfields, OR (95%CI): 1.15 (1.04, 1.26), with suggestive positive associations for central nervous 1.16 (0.91, 1.47) and external defects 1.19 (0.88, 1.59). We did observe evidence of effect measure modification via likelihood ratio tests (LRT) for race/ethnicity for central nervous and external defect groups (LRT p values 0.08 and 0.02). We did observe modification by diabetes status for the cardiovascular group (LRT p value 0.08).

Conclusions

Our results from this analysis indicate that residential proximity to Pb brownfields is associated with cardiovascular birth defects with suggestive associations for central nervous and external defects. In-depth analyses of individual defects and other contaminants or brownfield site functions may reveal additional novel associations.

背景:棕地由废弃和闲置场地组成,其用途多种多样。对于许多美国人来说,棕地是一种不同类型但无处不在的暴露,其中可能含有危险废物,代表着城市的凋敝。新生儿和孕妇通常对微妙的环境暴露非常敏感。我们评估了居民接触铅(Pb)棕色地块是否与出生缺陷有关:利用北卡罗来纳州 2003 年至 2015 年的出生记录,我们对铅棕地 10 公里范围内的 169499 例新生儿进行了采样,发现其中有 3255 例心血管、中枢神经或外部缺陷。通过居住在含铅棕地 3 公里范围内的二元规范对接触情况进行分类。我们利用多变量逻辑回归模型,并根据出生记录和 2010 年人口普查提供的人口协变量进行调整,以估算赔率比 (OR) 和 95% 置信区间 (CI)。通过纳入交互项以及对种族/人种和糖尿病状况等潜在调节因素进行分层,对效应测量的修正进行了评估:我们观察到心血管出生缺陷与邻近棕色铅污染区居住地之间存在正相关,OR (95%CI):1.15 (1.04, 1.26),与中枢神经 1.16 (0.91, 1.47) 和外部缺陷 1.19 (0.88, 1.59) 存在提示性正相关。通过似然比检验(LRT),我们确实观察到种族/人种对中枢神经和外部缺陷组的效应测量有修饰作用(LRT p 值分别为 0.08 和 0.02)。我们确实观察到糖尿病状态对心血管组的影响(LRT p 值为 0.08):我们的分析结果表明,居住地靠近含铅棕地与心血管出生缺陷有关,与中枢神经和外部缺陷也有提示性关联。对个别缺陷和其他污染物或棕地功能的深入分析可能会发现更多新的关联。

Background

Lack of data on the burden and scope of congenital disorders (CDs) in South Africa undermines resource allocation and limits the ability to detect signals from potentially teratogenic pregnancy exposures.

Methods

We used routine electronic data in the Western Cape Pregnancy Exposure Registry (PER) to determine the overall and individual prevalence of CD identified on neonatal surface examination at birth in the Western Cape, South Africa, 2016–2022. CD was confirmed by record review. The contribution of late (≤24 months) and antenatal diagnoses was assessed. We compared demographic and obstetric characteristics between women with/without pregnancies affected by CD.

Results

Women with a viable pregnancy (>22 weeks gestation; birth weight ≥ 500 g) (n = 32,494) were included. Of 1106 potential CD identified, 56.1% were confirmed on folder review. When internal and minor CD were excluded the prevalence of major CD identified on surface examination at birth was 7.2/1000 births. When missed/late diagnoses on examination (16.8%) and ultrasound (6.8%) were included, the prevalence was 9.2/1000 births: 8.9/1000 livebirths and 21.5/1000 stillbirths. The PER did not detect 21.5% of major CD visible at birth. Older maternal age and diabetes mellitus were associated with an increased prevalence of CD. Women living with/without HIV (or the timing of antiretroviral therapy, before/after conception), hypertension or obesity did not significantly affect prevalence of CD.

Conclusions

A surveillance system based on routine data successfully determined the prevalence of major CD identified on surface examination at birth at rates slightly higher than in equivalent studies. Overall rates, modeled at ~2%, are likely underestimated. Strengthening routine neonatal examination and clinical record-keeping could improve CD ascertainment.

背景:南非缺乏有关先天性疾病(CD)的负担和范围的数据,这有损于资源分配,并限制了检测潜在致畸妊娠暴露信号的能力:我们利用西开普省妊娠暴露登记处(PER)的常规电子数据,确定了 2016-2022 年南非西开普省出生时新生儿体表检查发现的先天性疾病的总体和个体患病率。CD通过记录审查得到确认。我们评估了晚期(≤24 个月)诊断和产前诊断的贡献。我们比较了受 CD 影响/未受 CD 影响的孕妇的人口和产科特征:结果:纳入了存活妊娠(妊娠期大于 22 周;出生体重≥ 500 克)的妇女(n = 32,494 人)。在确定的 1106 例潜在 CD 中,56.1% 经文件夹审查得到确认。排除内脏和轻微 CD 后,出生时体表检查发现的主要 CD 患病率为 7.2/1000。如果将检查(16.8%)和超声波检查(6.8%)的漏诊/迟诊计算在内,则发病率为 9.2/1000:8.9/1000 活产和 21.5/1000 死产。PER没有检测到21.5%的出生时可见的主要CD。高龄产妇和糖尿病与 CD 患病率增加有关。感染/未感染艾滋病毒的妇女(或接受抗逆转录病毒治疗的时间,受孕前/后)、高血压或肥胖对 CD 的患病率没有显著影响:基于常规数据的监测系统成功确定了出生时体表检查发现的主要 CD 患病率,其患病率略高于同等研究。根据模型计算的约 2% 的总体患病率很可能被低估了。加强新生儿常规检查和临床记录保存可提高 CD 的确定率。

Background

Orofacial clefts (OFCs) are among the most common birth defects (BD). In 2008, a series of improvements began in the Costa Rican Birth Defect Register Center (CREC). We aim to explore trends between 1996 and 2021.

Methods

A trend analysis of OFCs from 1996 to 2021 and a descriptive analysis of OFCs from 2010 to 2021 were performed based on data from the CREC, the national BD surveillance system. Prevalence at birth was calculated according to the type: cleft palate (CP), cleft lip with or without CP (CL ± P), and presentation (isolated, multiple non-syndromic, or syndromes). We used joinpoint regression to identify if a significant change in trend occurred; the average annual percent change (AAPC) was determined. Marginal means and prevalence ratios by subperiod (1996–2009 as referent and 2010–2021) were estimated using Poisson regression and compared using Wald's chi-square tests (α ≤.05).

Results

We found a significant AAPC for OFCs prevalence of +1.4: +0.6 for isolated, +2.9 for multiple non-syndromic, and +7.7 for syndromes (p < .05). When comparing the OFC's prevalence of the subperiod 2010–2021 (11.86 per 10,000) with 1996–2009 (9.36 per 10,000) the prevalence ratio was 1.3 (p < .01): 1.1 (p < .05) for isolated, 1.6 (p < .01) for multiple non-syndromic, and 3.3 (p < .01) for syndromes. The prevalence of OFCs from 2010 to 2021 was 9.1 for CL ± P and 2.8 for CP. Seventy-one percent of the OFCs were isolated, 22% multiple non-syndromic, and 7% syndromes.

Conclusion

The trend in OFCs' prevalence is toward increasing, mainly due to improvements in the surveillance system.

背景:口面裂(OFCs)是最常见的出生缺陷(BD)之一。2008 年,哥斯达黎加出生缺陷登记中心(CREC)开始进行一系列改进。我们旨在探讨 1996 年至 2021 年间的趋势:方法:根据国家 BD 监测系统 CREC 的数据,对 1996 年至 2021 年的 OFCs 进行了趋势分析,并对 2010 年至 2021 年的 OFCs 进行了描述性分析。出生时的患病率按以下类型计算:腭裂(CP)、唇裂伴或不伴CP(CL±P),以及表现形式(孤立、多发性非综合征或综合征)。我们使用连接点回归法来确定趋势是否发生了显著变化;确定了年均百分比变化 (AAPC)。我们使用泊松回归法估算了各子期(1996-2009 年为参照期,2010-2021 年为参照期)的边际均值和流行率,并使用沃尔德卡方检验(α ≤.05)进行了比较:结果:我们发现 AAPC 对 OFCs 患病率的显着影响为:+1.4:孤立型+0.6,多发性非综合征+2.9,综合征+7.7(p 结论:OFCs 的发病率呈明显的 AAPC+1.4:孤立型+0.6,多发性非综合征+2.9,综合征+7.7:OFC 发病率呈上升趋势,这主要归功于监测系统的改进。

Objectives

We assessed reporting misclassification for 12 critical congenital heart defects (CCHDs) identified through administrative diagnosis codes within a passive surveillance system. We measured the effect of misclassification on prevalence estimation. Lastly, we investigated a sample-based review strategy to estimate surveillance misclassification resulting from administrative diagnosis codes for case detection.

Methods

We received 419 reports of CCHDs between 2007 and 2018; 414 were clinically reviewed. We calculated confirmation probabilities to assess misclassification and adjust prevalence estimates. Random samples of reported cases were taken at proportions between 20% and 90% for each condition to assess sample bias. Sampling was repeated 1000 times to measure sample-estimate variability.

Results

Misclassification ranged from a low of 19% (n = 4/21) to a high of 84% (n = 21/25). Unconfirmed prevalence rates ranged between one and six cases per 10,000 live births, with some conditions significantly higher than national estimates. However, confirmed rates were either lower or comparable to national estimates.

Conclusion

Passive birth defect surveillance programs that rely on administrative diagnosis codes for case identification of CCHDs are subject to misclassification that bias prevalence estimates. We showed that a sample-based review could improve the prevalence estimates of 12 cardiovascular conditions relative to their unconfirmed prevalence rates.

目的:我们评估了被动监测系统中通过行政诊断代码确定的 12 种严重先天性心脏缺陷 (CCHD) 的报告分类错误。我们测量了错误分类对患病率估算的影响。最后,我们研究了一种基于样本的审查策略,以估计行政诊断代码在病例检测中导致的监测分类错误:2007 年至 2018 年间,我们收到了 419 份儿童疾病报告;其中 414 份进行了临床审查。我们计算了确认概率,以评估误分类并调整患病率估计值。对报告病例进行随机抽样,每种情况的抽样比例介于 20% 和 90% 之间,以评估样本偏差。重复抽样 1000 次,以测量样本估计值的变异性:分类错误率最低为 19%(n = 4/21),最高为 84%(n = 21/25)。未经证实的患病率介于每 10,000 例活产中 1 例到 6 例之间,其中一些病例明显高于全国估计值。然而,确诊率要么较低,要么与全国估计值相当:结论:被动式出生缺陷监测项目依赖于行政诊断代码来识别儿童慢性疾病病例,可能会造成分类错误,从而使患病率估计值出现偏差。我们的研究表明,与未经证实的患病率相比,基于样本的审查可以提高 12 种心血管疾病的患病率估计值。

Background

Prior studies report associations of maternal serum Lamin A, encoded by the LMNA gene, with fetal congenital heart disease (CHD). It is unknown whether DNA methylation (DNAm) of cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) sites in LMNA impacts the CHD susceptibility.

Methods

We investigated the associations of LMNA DNAm with CHD using publicly available data of CHD cases (n = 197) and controls (n = 134) from the Gene Expression Omnibus repository. Peripheral blood DNAm was measured using Illumina 850 K BeadChip for cases and 450 K BeadChip for controls. We tested 31 LMNA CpGs to identify differences in DNAm between cases and controls using linear regression correcting for multiple testing with false discovery rate (FDR). In a case-only analysis, we tested the variations in LMNA DNAm between CHD subtypes. To identify the consistency of DNAm across tissue types we compared peripheral blood (n = 197) and heart tissue DNAm (n = 20) in CHD cases.

Results

After adjusting for age, sex, and cell types there were significant differences in 17 of the 31 LMNA CpGs between CHD cases and controls (FDR p ≤ .05). We identified lower DNAm of cg09820673 at 3′ UTR for hypoplastic left heart syndrome compared to other CHD subtypes. Three CpGs exhibited uniform DNAm in blood and heart tissues in cases. Eleven CpGs showed changes in the same direction in blood and heart tissues in cases compared to controls.

Conclusion

We identify statistically significant differences in LMNA DNAm between CHD cases and controls. Future studies should investigate the role of maternal LMNA DNAm in CHD development.

背景:先前的研究报告称,由 LMNA 基因编码的母体血清 Lamin A 与胎儿先天性心脏病(CHD)有关。目前还不清楚 LMNA 中胞嘧啶-磷酸鸟嘌呤(CpG)位点的 DNA 甲基化(DNAm)是否会影响先天性心脏病的易感性:我们利用基因表达总库(Gene Expression Omnibus)中公开的 CHD 病例(197 例)和对照组(134 例)数据,研究了 LMNA DNAm 与 CHD 的关系。使用 Illumina 850 K BeadChip 测量病例的外周血 DNAm,使用 450 K BeadChip 测量对照组的外周血 DNAm。我们检测了 31 个 LMNA CpGs,利用线性回归校正多重检测的错误发现率 (FDR),确定病例和对照组之间 DNAm 的差异。在一项只针对病例的分析中,我们检测了不同 CHD 亚型之间 LMNA DNAm 的差异。为了确定不同组织类型DNAm的一致性,我们比较了CHD病例的外周血(n = 197)和心脏组织DNAm(n = 20):结果:在对年龄、性别和细胞类型进行调整后,CHD 病例和对照组在 31 个 LMNA CpGs 中的 17 个存在显著差异(FDR p ≤ .05)。与其他 CHD 亚型相比,我们发现左心发育不全综合征 3' UTR 的 cg09820673 DNAm 较低。有三个 CpGs 在病例的血液和心脏组织中显示出一致的 DNAm。与对照组相比,病例的血液和心脏组织中有 11 个 CpGs 显示出相同方向的变化:结论:我们发现 CHD 病例和对照组的 LMNA DNAm 存在明显的统计学差异。今后的研究应探讨母体 LMNA DNAm 在 CHD 发病中的作用。
