摘要
系统性红斑狼疮(SLE 或狼疮)是一种复杂的自身免疫性疾病,可影响多个器官。虽然人们对该病的确切病因尚不完全清楚,但有一种说法认为,X 染色体的剂量对狼疮的发病机制有影响。在此,我们报告了一例罕见的女性患者,她被诊断为马赛克特纳综合征,随后又出现了幼年型系统性红斑狼疮。我们对该患者的DNA甲基化模式进行了分析,并将其与年龄匹配的女性系统性红斑狼疮对照组进行了比较,结果发现干扰素调控基因的甲基化水平较高,而这些基因以前曾被证明在系统性红斑狼疮中甲基化水平较低。这些数据提供了 X 染色体基因剂量效应与狼疮定义表观遗传型之间的潜在联系。我们推测,干扰素调控基因的去甲基化减弱可能提供了一种保护作用,从而解释了特纳综合征中系统性红斑狼疮的罕见性。
Rare Turner syndrome and lupus coexistence with insights from DNA methylation patterns
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE or lupus) is a complex autoimmune disease that can affect multiple organs. While the exact disease etiology remains incompletely understood, there is a suggested influence of X-chromosome dosage in the pathogenesis of lupus. Here, we report a rare case of a female patient diagnosed with mosaic Turner syndrome and subsequently presenting with juvenile-onset SLE. DNA methylation patterns were analyzed in this patient and compared with age-matched female SLE controls, revealing higher methylation levels in interferon-regulated genes previously shown to be hypomethylated in SLE. These data provide a potential link between a gene-dose effect from the X-chromosome and the lupus-defining epigenotype. We hypothesize that the attenuated demethylation in interferon-regulated genes might provide a protective effect explaining the rarity of SLE in Turner syndrome.
