N-acétyltransférase lysosomale : organisation, fonctionnement et défauts moléculaires chez les patients atteints du syndrome de Sanfilippo type C

L’acétylation des résidus de glucosamine terminaux par la N-acétyltransférase lysosomale (HGSNAT) est une étape essentielle de la dégradation catabolique de l’héparan sulfate. Des défauts dans cette réaction causent une maladie de surcharge lysosomale autosomale récessive rare : le désordre de Sanfilippo type C (SFC). À ce jour, 54 mutations ont été rapportées chez des patients SFC, incluant 13 mutations des sites d’épissage, 11 insertions et délétions, 8 mutations non-sens, 18 mutations faux-sens et 4 polymorphismes, avec différentes manifestations phénotypiques. Nous avons identifié 10 d’entre elles et effectué une étude exhaustive portant sur l’éventail des mutations SFC, leur distribution dans la population de patients, ainsi que leur impact potentiel sur la structure de la HGSNAT. Les erreurs d’épissage, les mutations non-sens, les insertions et les délétions devraient toutes entraîner un ARN non fonctionnel qui est rapidement dégradé par des mécanismes de contrôle qualité cellulaire. Les 4 polymorphismes identifiés sont des changements d'acides aminés qui ne modifient pas l'activité enzymatique, la glycosylation ou la localisation et n'ont donc pas de signification au niveau clinique. Au niveau des enzymes, les polymorphismes sont des changements d’acides aminés qui n’affectent pas la fonction, mais dans un contexte d’acides nucléiques ils peuvent être considérés comme des mutations faux-sens. Les dix-huit mutations faux-sens qui ont été exprimées ont produit des protéines inactives, en raison d'erreurs dans leur repliement. Ceci expliquerait donc la progression sévère de la maladie chez les personnes porteuses de ces mutations. Les protéines mutantes mal repliées sont anormalement glycosylées et conservées dans le réticulum endoplasmique. La thérapie par amélioration de l’activité enzymatique par des chaperonnes est une option thérapeutique potentielle, spécifiquement conçue pour exploiter l'activité enzymatique résiduelle de mutants mal repliés, afin d’éliminer les substrats stockés. Nous avons démontré que le traitement de plusieurs lignées de fibroblastes de patients SFC avec le chlorhydrate de glucosamine, un inhibiteur spécifique de la HGSNAT, a partiellement restauré l’activité de l'enzyme mutante, fournissant une preuve de l’utilité future de la thérapie par des chaperonnes dans le traitement de la maladie de SFC.

A splicing switch and gain-of-function mutation in FgfR2-IIIc hemizygotes causes Apert/Pfeiffer-syndrome-like phenotypes

Intercellular signaling by fibroblast growth factors plays vital roles during embryogenesis. Mice deficient for fibroblast growth factor receptors (FgfRs) show abnormalities in early gastrulation and implantation, disruptions in epithelial–mesenchymal interactions, as well as profound defects in membranous and endochondrial bone formation. Activating FGFR mutations are the underlying cause of several craniosynostoses and dwarfism syndromes in humans. Here we show that a heterozygotic abrogation of FgfR2-exon 9 (IIIc) in mice causes a splicing switch, resulting in a gain-of-function mutation. The consequences are neonatal growth retardation and death, coronal synostosis, ocular proptosis, precocious sternal fusion, and abnormalities in secondary branching in several organs that undergo branching morphogenesis. This phenotype has strong parallels to some Apert's and Pfeiffer's syndrome patients.

Fibroblast growth factor receptor expression in outer hair cells of rat cochlea

FIBROBLAST growth factors (FGFs) are critical for normal development of the organ of Corti, and may also protect hair cells from ototoxic damage. Four different fibroblast growth factors are known, three of which have different splice variants in the extracellular immunoglobin-like (Ig) III FGF-binding domain, giving different patterns of sensitivity to the different FGFs. Analysis of a cDNA library of rat outer hair cells by the polymerase chain reaction, using isoform specific primers, showed expression only of FGF receptor 3, splice variant IIIc. This allows us to predict the pattern of sensitivity to applied FGFs, may be useful in targeting outer hair cells selectively during an FGF-based strategy for cochlear therapy.

Mucopolysaccharidoses in Brazil: What happens from birth to biochemical diagnosis?

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) form a group of inherited metabolic disorders characterized by intralysosomal storage of glycosaminoglycans. This study aimed to investigate the path followed by Brazilian patients from birth to diagnosis. An interview was conducted with patient`s parents or guardians with subsequent review of patient`s medical records. One hundred thirteen patients with MPS were included (MPS I: 18, MPS II: 43, MPS III: 2, MPS IIIB: 3, MPS IIIC: 1, MPS IVA: 15, MPS IVB: 1, MPS VI: 29, MPS VII: 1) from 97 families. Median age at the onset of sings/symptoms was 18 months (MPS I: 18, MPS II: 24, MPS IVA: 8, MPS IV: 8). Skeletal abnormalities (for MPS IVA and MPS VI), joint contracures (for MPS II), and typically first signs/symptoms. Several health professionals were involved in patient`s care as of the onset of symptoms until biochemical diagnosis was established. Median age at diagnosis was 76 months (MPS I: 75, MPS II: 95, MPS IVA: 75, MPS VI: 52). Considering the group as a whole, there was a 4.8-year delay between the onset of signs/symptoms and establishment of the diagnosis. Considering that specific therapies are available for some of these disorders and that early treatment is likely to change more favorably the natural history of the disease, efforts should be made to minimize this delay. We believe that this situation can be improved by measures that both increase awareness of health professionals about MPS and improve access to diagnostic tests. (C) 2008 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Doenças lisossomais de sobrecarga em Portugal: 10 anos de experiência em estudos moleculares no INSA (2006-2016)

As Doenças Lisososomais de Sobrecarga (DLS) são um grupo de mais de 50 doenças hereditárias do metabolismo, sendo a maioria causada por defeitos em enzimas lisossomais específicas. A característica distintiva das DLS é a acumulação lisossomal do(s) substrato(s) não degradado(s), bem como a acumulação de outro material secundariamente à disfunção lisossomal. A apresentação clínica destas patologias é bastante heterogénea, variando desde formas pré-natais, até apresentações infantis ou na idade adulta, sendo frequente a presença de atraso psicomotor e neurodegeneração progressiva. Neste artigo são apresentados os resultados de vários estudos de caracterização molecular efetuados ao longo da última década (2006-2016) em doentes portugueses com as seguintes DLS: Mucopolissacaridose II, Mucopolissacaridose IIIA, Mucopolissacaridose IIIB, Mucopolissacaridose IIIC, Sialidose, Galactosialidose, Gangliosidose GM1, Mucolipidose II alfa/beta, Mucolipidose III alfa/beta, Mucolipidose III gama e Doença de Unverricht-Lundborg. De um modo geral, estes trabalhos permitiram conhecer as variações genéticas associadas a estas DLS, analisar a sua distribuição na população portuguesa e compreender o seu papel na forma de apresentação clínica destas patologias.

Novel FGFR1 Mutations in Kallmann Syndrome and Normosmic Idiopathic Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism: Evidence for the Involvement of an Alternatively Spliced Isoform

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) mutations and their predicted functional consequences in patients with idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH). DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: Multicentric. PATIENT(S): Fifty unrelated patients with IHH (21 with Kallmann syndrome and 29 with normosmic IHH). INTERVENTION(S): None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Patients were screened for mutations in FGFR1. The functional consequences of mutations were predicted by in silico structural and conservation analysis. RESULT(S): Heterozygous FGFR1 mutations were identified in six (12%) kindreds. These consisted of frameshift mutations (p.Pro33-Alafs*17 and p.Tyr654*) and missense mutations in the signal peptide (p.Trp4Cys), in the D1 extracellular domain (p.Ser96Cys) and in the cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain (p.Met719Val). A missense mutation was identified in the alternatively spliced exon 8A (p.Ala353Thr) that exclusively affects the D3 extracellular domain of FGFR1 isoform IIIb. Structure-based and sequence-based prediction methods and the absence of these variants in 200 normal controls were all consistent with a critical role for the mutations in the activity of the receptor. Oligogenic inheritance (FGFR1/CHD7/PROKR2) was found in one patient. CONCLUSION(S): Two FGFR1 isoforms, IIIb and IIIc, result from alternative splicing of exons 8A and 8B, respectively. Loss-of-function of isoform IIIc is a cause of IHH, whereas isoform IIIb is thought to be redundant. Ours is the first report of normosmic IHH associated with a mutation in the alternatively spliced exon 8A and suggests that this disorder can be caused by defects in either of the two alternatively spliced FGFR1 isoforms.

Plasma Level of Mmp-9 as Predictive Factor for Response and Progression Free Survival in Patients Treated with Bevacizumab (Bev) and Pegylated Liposomal Doxorubicin (Pld): Sakk 24/06

Background: There is currently no identified marker predicting benefit from Bev in patients with breast cancer (pts). We monitored prospectively 6 angiogenesis-related factors in the blood of advanced stage pts treated with a combination of Bev and PLD in a phase II trial of the Swiss Group for Clinical Cancer Research, SAKK.Methods: Pts received PLD (20 mg/m2) and Bev (10 mg/kg) every 2 weeks for a maximum of 12 administrations, followed by Bev monotherapy until progression or severe toxicity. Blood samples were collected at baseline, during treatment and at treatment discontinuation. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (Quantikine, R&DSystems and Reliatech) were used to measure vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), placental growth factor (PlGF), matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and soluble VEGF receptors -1, -2 and -3. The natural log-transformed (ln) data for each factor was analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) model to investigate differences between the mean values of the subgroups of interest (where a = 0.05), based on the best tumor response by RECIST.Results: 132 samples were collected in 41 pts. The mean of baseline ln MMP-9 levels was significantly lower in pts with tumor progression than those with tumor response (p=0.0202, log fold change=0.8786) or disease control (p=0.0035, log fold change=0.8427). Higher MMP-9 level was a significant predictor of superior progression free survival (PFS): p=0.0417, hazard ratio=0.574, 95% CI=0.336-0.979. In a multivariate cox proportional hazards model, containing performance status, disease free interval, number of tumor sites, visceral involvement and prior adjuvant chemotherapy, using stepwise regression baseline MMP-9 was still a statistically 117P Table 1.

Treatment of large bone defects with the Ilizarov technique.

Between 1985 and 1990 we treated 11 large segmental bone defects (average 6.7 cm) in ten patients with the Ilizarov technique. Open fractures, type III according to Gustilo, represented the largest group (8 of 11 cases). The average delay before the Ilizarov technique was initiated was 8.9 months. The external fixator was usually maintained for 1 year. Bone regeneration was obtained in every case. Consolidation was not fulfilled with this technique in three cases. The complications observed were one refracture, four leg-length discrepancies (average 1.5 cm), and five axial deformities exceeding 5 degrees. No pin-track infection was observed. In our limited series of four type IIIC open fractures treated by the Ilizarov technique, no patients required amputation. The Ilizarov technique is particularly useful in the treatment of large bone defects, without major complications, especially if there is an adequate initial debridement.

Is amoxicillin/clavulanic acid sufficient for preemptive antibiotic therapy in type III grade open fractures ?

The risk of infection after type III° open fractures is high (10-50%).Preemptive antibiotic therapy may prevent posttraumatic infection andimprove the outcome. Recommendations about the type and durationof antibiotic vary among the institutions and it remains unclear whethergram-negative bacilli or anaerobs need to be covered. In Europe, themost commonly recommended antibiotic is amoxicillin/clavulanic acid.We retrospectively analyzed microbiology, characteristics and outcomeof patients with open type III° fractures treated at our institution.Methods: Between 01/2005 and 12/2009 we retrospectively includedall type III grade open fractures of the leg at our institution classifiedafter Gustilo into type IIIA, IIIB and IIIC. Demographic characteristics,clinical presentation, microbiology, surgical and antibiotic treatmentand patient outcome were recorded using a standardized case-reportform.Results: 30 cases of patients with type III° open fractures wereincluded (25 males, mean age was 40.5 years, range 17-67 years).27 fractures (90%) were located on the lower leg and 3 (10%) on theupper leg. Microbiology at initial surgery was available for 19 cases(63%), of which 10 grew at least one organism (including 8 amoxicillin/clavulanic acid-resistant gram-negative bacilli [GNB], 7 amoxicillin/clavulanic acid-resistant Bacillus cereus), 11 were culture-negative.Preemptive antibiotics were given in all cases (100%) for an averageduration of 8.5 days (range 1-53 days), the most common antibioticwas amoxicillin/clavulanic acid in 60% (n = 18). 11 cases just receivedpreemptive antibiotic treatment, in 19 of 30 cases the antibiotic therapywas changed and prolonged. Microbiology at revision surgery wasavailable for 25 cases and 22 grew at least one pathogen (including32 amoxicillin/clavulanic acid-resistant gram-negative bacilli and 10amoxicillin/clavulanic acid-resistant Bacillus cereus), 3 were culturenegative.Conclusions: At initial surgery, most common isolated organismswere coagulase-negative staphylococci (43%), Bacillus cereus (23%),and gram-negative bacilli (27%), and others (7%) of which 48% wereresistant to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid. At revision surgery, isolatedorganisms were gram-negative bacilli (64%), Bacillus cereus (20%),and others (16%) of which 88% were resistant to amoxicillin/clavulanicacid. The spectrum of amoxicillin/clavulanic does not cover the mostcommon isolated organisms.FM32

Novel mutation in the tyrosine kinase domain of FGFR2 in a patient with Pfeiffer syndrome.

Mutations in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) cause a variety of craniosynostosis syndromes. The mutational spectrum tends to be narrow with the majority of mutations occurring in either exon IIIa or IIIc or in the intronic sequence preceding exon IIIc. Mutations outside of this hotspot are uncommon and the few identified mutations have demonstrated wide clinical variability, making it difficult to establish a clear-cut genotype-phenotype correlation. To better delineate the clinical picture associated with these unusual mutations, we describe a severely affected patient with Pfeiffer syndrome and a missense mutation in the tyrosine kinase (TK) domain of FGFR2.

Early Iron Age Pottery: A Quantitative Approach, Proceedings of the International Round Table organized by the Swiss School of Archaeology in Greece (Athens, November 28-30, 2008)

Quantitative approaches in ceramology are gaining ground in excavation reports, archaeological publications and thematic studies. Hence, a wide variety of methods are being used depending on the researchers' theoretical premise, the type of material which is examined, the context of discovery and the questions that are addressed. The round table that took place in Athens on November 2008 was intended to offer the participants the opportunity to present a selection of case studies on the basis of which methodological approaches were discussed. The aim was to define a set of guidelines for quantification that would prove to be of use to all researchers. Contents: 1) Introduction (Samuel Verdan); 2) Isthmia and beyond.

Neoadjuvant treatment with docetaxel plus lapatinib, trastuzumab, or both followed by an anthracycline-based chemotherapy in HER2-positive breast cancer: results of the randomised phase II EORTC 10054 study.

BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant trials conducted using a double HER2 blockade with lapatinib and trastuzumab, combined with different paclitaxel-containing chemotherapy regimens, have shown high pathological complete response (pCR) rates, but at the cost of important toxicity. We hypothesised that this toxicity might be due to a specific interaction between paclitaxel and lapatinib. This trial assesses the toxicity and activity of the combination of docetaxel with lapatinib and trastuzumab. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with stage IIA to IIIC HER2-positive breast cancer received six cycles of chemotherapy (three cycles of docetaxel followed by three cycles of fluorouracil, epirubicin, cyclophosphamide). They were randomised 1 : 1 : 1 to receive during the first three cycles either lapatinib (1000 mg orally daily), trastuzumab (4 mg/kg loading dose followed by 2 mg/kg weekly), or trastuzumab + lapatinib at the same dose. The primary end point was pCR rate defined as ypT0/is. Secondary end points included safety and toxicity. pCR rate defined as ypT0/is ypN0 was assessed as an exploratory analysis. In June 2012, arm A was closed for futility based on the results from other studies. RESULTS: From October 2010 to January 2013, 128 patients were included in 14 centres. The percentage of the 122 assessable patients with pCR in the breast, and pCR in the breast and nodes, was numerically highest in the lapatinib + trastuzumab group (60% and 56%, respectively), intermediate in the trastuzumab group (52% and 52%), and lowest in the lapatinib group (46% and 36%). Frequency (%) of the most common grade 3-4 toxicities in the lapatinib /trastuzumab/lapatinib + trastuzumab arms were: febrile neutropenia 23/15/10, diarrhoea 9/2/18, infection (other) 9/4/8, and hepatic toxicity 0/2/8. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates a numerically modest pCR rate increase with double anti-HER2 blockade plus chemotherapy, but suggests that the use of docetaxel rather than paclitaxel may not reduce toxicity.
