Molecular Characterization of Koolen De Vries Syndrome in Two Girls with Idiopathic Intellectual Disability from Central Brazil

Abstract: Koolen de Vries syndrome (KDVS; MIM 610443) is a genomic disorder caused by a recurrent microdeletion derived from nonallelic homologous recombination mediated by flanking segmental duplications. Clinical manifestations of this syndrome are characterized by intellectual disability, hypotonia, a friendly behavior, distinctive facial features, and epilepsy. Herein, we report a case of 2 girls who revealed global developmental delay, mild facial dysmorphisms, friendly behavior, and epileptic seizure with a de nov… Show more

“…LINC00989 and MAPI-IT1 are associated with congenital diseases [ 26 , 27 ], and their relationship with cancer remains unclear. No studies have reported associations between LINC01208, RP5-1-11O1.3, RP11-696F12.1, CTC-297N7.9, CTA-384D8.34, CTC-276P9.4, and cancer, but we speculate that these lncRNA may be involved in BRCA tumorigenesis.…”

“…Through PhenoScanner [47], we found a proxy SNP for rs11787922, namely rs10512097 (r 2 = 0.85 in Europeans, not included in our GWAS), which was a suggestive expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) for IMP5 (also called SPPL2C) (P = 7.18 × 10 −6 ) [48]. Deletions of this gene have been reported for some forms of intellectual disability and developmental delay [49,50], although de novo loss-of-function variants in a nearby gene were enough to cause a similar phenotype [51]. Recently, SPPL2C has been highlighted in a G × E study which examined the influence of common variants on language through low-frequency hearing ability [52].…”

“…In our study, the use of the CMA allowed the identification of microduplication at 17p11.2 in a boy with intellectual disability, reporting the first case of Potocki-Lupski Syndrome in Central Brazil. Furthermore, our group has applied the CMA to screen for submicroscopic genomic gains and losses in both diagnostic, cancer, and functional scenarios including mutagenesis (PEREIRA et al, 2014;NASCIMENTO et al, 2017;COSTA et al, 2018;LEITE FILHO et al, 2020;RIBEIRO et al, 2021).…”
