Identification of a novel BMPR1A germline mutation in a Korean juvenile polyposis patient without SMAD4 mutation

Abstract: Juvenile polyposis (JP) is characterized by the development of multiple hamartomatous polyps and is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. Germline mutations of the SMAD4 gene have been reported in JP. We have previously identified three SMAD4 germline mutations in five Korean JP patients. Recently, germline mutations of the BMPR1A (ALK3) gene were reported in JP cases without SMAD4 mutations. In order to determine whether BMPR1A could be involved in the development of JP, we screened all five patients usin… Show more

“…Patient IV:76 had a splice-site variant c.230 + 2T > C (class 4), II:59 had a truncating variant, c.441delT, Phe147Leufs*18 (class 5) and the last patient (II:58) had a probable pathogenic (class 4) missense mutation, c.1409 C > T, p.Met470Thr in BMPR1A . This missense mutation has previously been found in a patient with a juvenile polyposis phenotype and around 300 polyps throughout the entire gastrointestinal tract [15]. Two patients from Group I, “CRC familial or unknown inheritance not polyposis”, had variants in AXIN2 .…”

“…In addition, Smad1 and Smad5, which are central components for transduction of BMP signals, are strongly downregulated in chemically induced mouse epidermal tumors (He et al, 2001), while in human basal cell carcinoma, R-Smad expression is also decreased (Lange et al, 1999). Moreover, germline mutations in BMPR1A correlate with a significant proportion of cases of juvenile polyposis with a risk for colon cancer (Howe et al, 2001;Zhou et al, 2001;Kim et al, 2003). On the other hand, constitutive activation of WNT/␤-catenin signaling can lead to cancer (reviewed in Taipale and Beachy, 2001).…”

“…When complexed, the constitutive kinase activity of the type II receptor transphosphorylates the type I GS domain, activating the type I receptor, which binds and phosphorylates primarily receptor-mediated Smad proteins (R-Smad) (Carcamo et al 1994;Wrana et al 1994;Chen et al 1998b;Macias-Silva et al 1998;Chen and Massague 1999). Mutations in the human type I receptors ALK1/ACVRL1, ALK2/ACVR1, ALK3/BMPR1A, ALK4/ACVR1B, ALK5/TGFbR1, and ALK6/BMPR1B have been identified and in each case are associated with a disease and/or developmental syndrome with very specific manifestations, e.g., hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia type 2 (HHT2) (ALK1/ACVRL1), fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) (ALK2/ ACVR1), juvenile polyposis syndrome (ALK3/BMPR1A), pancreatic adenocarcinoma (ALK4/ACVR1B), LoeysDietz syndrome (ALK5/TGFbR1), and brachydactyly type A2 (ALK6/BMPR1B) (Howe et al 2001;Su et al 2001;Zhou et al 2001;Kim et al 2003;Loeys et al 2005;Lehmann et al 2003Lehmann et al , 2006Abdalla and Letarte 2006;Bayrak-Toydemir et al 2006;Shore et al 2006;Wehner et al 2006;Olivieri et al 2007). In general, the specific effects of each mutation are not well understood in terms of signal transduction and functional consequences.…”
