Mutational screening of EXT1 and EXT2 genes in Polish patients with hereditary multiple exostoses

Abstract: Hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) also known as multiple osteochondromas represent one of the most frequent bone tumor disorder in humans. Its clinical presentation is characterized by the presence of multiple benign cartilage-capped tumors located most commonly in the juxta-epiphyseal portions of long bones. HME are usually inherited in autosomal dominant manner, however de novo mutations can also occur. In most patients, the disease is caused by alterations in the EXT1 and EXT2 genes. In this study we inve… Show more

“…In a first analysis of HME patients in Poland, Jamsheer et al investigated 33 unrelated HME patients (62). Using Sanger sequencing and MLPA, they detected a heterozygous mutation in the coding exons of EXT1 or EXT2 in about 55% and 30% of patients, respectively, with 15 mutations being novel.…”

“…In our study, mutations in EXT1 gene were found in 55% of probands. It is a much less than 85% found in 33 unrelated Polish patients (Jamsheer et al, 2014). Mutations in EXT2 gene were found in two probands.…”

“…5 Son causadas principalmente por mutaciones en genes supresores de tumores, como el EXT1, localizado en 8q24.11, que causa la EMH tipo 1 (OMIM 133700); el EXT2, ubicado en 11p11.2, que causa la EMH tipo 2 (OMIM 133701); y la EMH tipo 3 (OMIM 600209), cuyo locus ha sido localizado en el brazo corto del cromosoma 19 (19p), pero aún no se han detectado alteraciones de este. 1,6,7 Las mutaciones en EXT1 representan entre 56 y 78% Se presenta el caso de una adolescente evaluada de forma multidisciplinaria con diagnóstico clínico, estudio radiológico y molecular de EMH con doble alelo mutante en el gen EXT1 no informado previamente.…”
