ABCC6/MRP6 mutations: further insight into the molecular pathology of pseudoxanthoma elasticum.
Eur J Hum Genet. 2003 Mar;11(3):215-24., [PMID:12673275]

Abstract [show]
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a hereditary disease characterized by progressive dystrophic mineralization of the elastic fibres. PXE patients frequently present with skin lesions and visual acuity loss. Recently, we and others showed that PXE is caused by mutations in the ABCC6/MRP6 gene. However, the molecular pathology of PXE is complicated by yet unknown factors causing the variable clinical expression of the disease. In addition, the presence of ABCC6/MRP6 pseudogenes and multiple ABCC6/MRP6-associated deletions complicate interpretation of molecular genetic studies. In this study, we present the mutation spectrum of ABCC6/MRP6 in 59 PXE patients from the Netherlands. We detected 17 different mutations in 65 alleles. The majority of mutations occurred in the NBF1 (nucleotide binding fold) domain, in the eighth cytoplasmatic loop between the 15th and 16th transmembrane regions, and in NBF2 of the predicted ABCC6/MRP6 protein. The R1141X mutation was by far the most common mutation identified in 19 (32.2%) patients. The second most frequent mutation, an intragenic deletion from exon 23 to exon 29 in ABCC6/MRP6, was detected in 11 (18.6%) of the patients. Our data include 11 novel ABCC6/MRP6 mutations, as well as additional segregation data relevant to the molecular pathology of PXE in a limited number of patients and families. The consequences of our data for the molecular pathology of PXE are discussed.

Heterozygous carriers of Pseudoxanthoma elasticum were not found among patients with cervical artery dissections.
J Neurol. 2003 Aug;250(8):983-6., [PMID:12928920]

Abstract [show]
In this study of patients with spontaneous cervical artery dissections (sCAD) we searched for mutations in ABCC6, the candidate gene for Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE). Genomic DNA samples from 12 sCAD patients with pronounced electron microscopic alterations in their dermal connective tissue and from 2 patients with PXE were analysed. One patient with PXE was compound heterozygous for two missense point mutations, in the second patient with PXE we did not find changes in the ABCC6 gene. We observed several missense mutations (H623Q, R3190W and R1268Q) in the patients with sCAD, but these mutations were not disease specific,since they were also detected in a series of 25 healthy control subjects.The finding of several sequence variants in sCAD patients and of disease causing mutations in one of the PXE patients suggests that our strategy of mutation search is reliable. Since we did not find disease causing mutations in our series of patients with sCAD we suggest that ABCC6 is not a candidate gene for sCAD.

Assessment of a rapid-cycle PCR assay for the identification of the recurrent c.3421C>T mutation in the ABCC6 gene in pseudoxanthoma elasticum patients.
Lab Invest. 2004 Jan;84(1):122-30., [PMID:14631379]

Abstract [show]
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a heritable disorder of the connective tissue. Mutations in the ABCC6 gene could be linked to this disease and, just recently, the c.3421C>T mutation was also associated with a high risk of coronary artery disease. We have now developed new real-time PCR assays for the accurate and rapid determination of the c.3421C>T genotype. Using our new assay, we analyzed the presence of the c.3421C>T mutation in the largest collection of DNA samples from unrelated German PXE patients (n=64) and in a control cohort (n=910). For assay setup, two sets of samples with known genotype for the c.3421C>T mutation were analyzed over a period of 14 days. Results were confirmed by restriction endonuclease mapping, sequence-specific PCR and DNA sequencing. In order to ensure that no further mutations or deletions interfered with the c.3421C>T genotyping, we scanned the exon 24 of the ABCC6 gene by DHPLC and investigated the presence of the ABCC6del23-29 deletion in all patients. The assay has been set up on a group of patients with known genotype and validated on 64 PXE patients. In this group four PXE patients (6.3%) were found to be homozygous and 25 (39.0%) to be heterozygous carriers of the c.3421C>T mutation. The common ABCC6del23-29 deletion, possibly interfering with genotype determination, was searched and excluded. Furthermore, two novel mutations in the ABCC6 gene could be identified in two patients. The novel mutations c.3389C>T and c.3341G>A did not interfere with our new assay. Our new c.3421C>T genotyping assays can be used for the rapid identification of this frequent mutation in PXE patients and of the recently newly proposed cardiac risk factor in young patients with myocardial infarcts of unknown origin.

Novel ABCC6 mutations in pseudoxanthoma elasticum.
J Invest Dermatol. 2004 Mar;122(3):608-13., [PMID:15086542]

Abstract [show]
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a heritable connective tissue disorder caused by mutations in an ABC (ATP-Binding Cassette) transporter gene (ABCC6), which manifests with cutaneous, ophthalmologic, and cardiovascular findings. We studied a cohort of 19 families with PXE, and identified 16 different mutations, nine of which were novel variants. The mutation detection rate was about 77%. We found that arginine codon 518 was, with the previously described R1141X and EX23_29del, a recurrently mutated amino acid (11.5% of the mutations detected for each variant R518Q and R518X). No clear delineation of genotype/phenotype correlation was identified, and marked intra-familial variability of the disease was seen in one family. One family with pseudodominant inheritance displayed three distinct ABCC6 mutations, providing further evidence for the probable exclusive recessive transmission of PXE. These data contribute to the expanding database of ABCC6 mutations, to the description of phenotypic variability, and inheritance in PXE, and should be helpful for genetic counselling.

ABCC6 mutations in Italian families affected by pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE).
Hum Mutat. 2004 Nov;24(5):438-9., [PMID:15459974]

Abstract [show]
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a genetic disorder, characterized by cutaneous, ocular and cardiovascular clinical symptoms, caused by mutations in a gene (ABCC6) that encodes for MRP6 (Multidrug Resistance associated Protein 6), an ATP-binding cassette membrane transporter. The ABCC6 gene was sequenced in 38 unrelated PXE Italian families. The mutation detection rate was 82.9%. Mutant alleles occurred in homozygous, compound heterozygous and heterozygous forms, however the great majority of patients were compound heterozygotes. Twenty-three different mutations were identified, among which 11 were new. Fourteen were missense (61%); five were nonsense (22%); two were frameshift (8.5%) and two were putative splice site mutations (8.5%). The great majority of mutations were located from exon 24 to 30, exon 24 being the most affected. Among the others, exons 9 and 12 were particularly involved. Almost all mutations were located in the intracellular site of MRP6. A positive correlation was observed between patient's age and severity of the disorder, especially for eye alterations. The relevant heterogeneity in clinical manifestations between patients with identical ABCC6 mutations, even within the same family, seems to indicate that, apart from PXE causative mutations, other genes and/or metabolic pathways might influence the clinical expression of the disorder.

Efficient molecular diagnostic strategy for ABCC6 in pseudoxanthoma elasticum.
Genet Test. 2004 Fall;8(3):292-300., [PMID:15727254]

Abstract [show]
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a hereditary disorder of connective tissue with skin, cardiovascular, and visual involvement. In familial cases, PXE usually segregates in an autosomal recessive fashion. The aim of this manuscript is to describe an efficient strategy for DNA diagnosis of PXE. The two most frequent mutations, R1141X and an ABCC6 del exons 23-29, as well as a core set of mutations, were identified by restriction enzyme digestion and size separation on agarose gels. Next, in the remaining patient group in which only one or no mutant allele was found, the complete coding sequence was analyzed using denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (dHPLC). All variations found were confirmed by direct DNA sequencing. Finally, Southern blot was used to investigate the potential presence of small or large deletions. Twenty different mutations, including two novel mutations in the ABCC6 gene, were identified in 80.3% of the 76 patients, and 58.6% of the 152 ABCC6 alleles analyzed. With this strategy, 70 (78.7%) out of 89 mutant alleles could be detected within a week. We conclude that this strategy leads to both reliable and time-saving screening for mutations in the ABCC6 gene in sporadic cases and in families with PXE.

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum: a clinical, pathophysiological and genetic update including 11 novel ABCC6 mutations.
J Med Genet. 2005 Dec;42(12):881-92. Epub 2005 May 13., [PMID:15894595]

Abstract [show]
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is an inherited systemic disease of connective tissue primarily affecting the skin, retina, and cardiovascular system. It is characterised pathologically by elastic fibre mineralisation and fragmentation (so called "elastorrhexia"), and clinically by high heterogeneity in age of onset and the extent and severity of organ system involvement. PXE was recently associated with mutations in the ABCC6 (ATP binding cassette subtype C number 6) gene. At least one ABCC6 mutation is found in about 80% of patients. These mutations are identifiable in most of the 31 ABCC6 exons and consist of missense, nonsense, frameshift mutations, or large deletions. No correlation between the nature or location of the mutations and phenotype severity has yet been established. Recent findings support exclusive recessive inheritance. The proposed prevalence of PXE is 1/25,000, but this is probably an underestimate. ABCC6 encodes the protein ABCC6 (also known as MRP6), a member of the large ATP dependent transmembrane transporter family that is expressed predominantly in the liver and kidneys, and only to a lesser extent in tissues affected by PXE. The physiological substrates of ABCC6 remain to be determined, but the current hypothesis is that PXE should be considered to be a metabolic disease with undetermined circulating molecules interacting with the synthesis, turnover, or maintenance of elastic fibres.

Analysis of sequence variations in the ABCC6 gene among patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm and pseudoxanthoma elasticum.
J Vasc Res. 2005 Sep-Oct;42(5):424-32. Epub 2005 Aug 26., [PMID:16127278]

Abstract [show]
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is characterized by dilatation of arterial walls, which is accompanied by degradation of elastin and collagen molecules. Biochemical and environmental factors are known to be relevant for AAA development, and familial predisposition is well recognized. A connective tissue disorder that is also associated with fragmentation of elastic fibers is Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE). PXE is caused by mutations in the ABCC6 gene and mainly affects dermal, ocular and all vascular tissues. To investigate whether variations in ABCC6 are found in AAA patients and to determine mutations in PXE patients, we analyzed seven selected ABCC6 exons of 133 AAA and 54 PXE patients subjected to mutational analysis. In our cohort of AAA patients, we found five ABCC6 alterations, which result in missense or silent amino acid variants. The allelic frequencies of these sequence variations were not significantly different between AAA patients and healthy controls. Therefore, we suggest that alterations in ABCC6 are not a genetic risk factor for AAA. Mutational screening of the PXE patients revealed 19 different ABCC6 variations, including two novel PXE-causing mutations. These results expand the ABCC6 mutation database in PXE.

Mutation detection in the ABCC6 gene and genotype-phenotype analysis in a large international case series affected by pseudoxanthoma elasticum.
J Med Genet. 2007 Oct;44(10):621-8. Epub 2007 Jul 6., [PMID:17617515]

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), an autosomal recessive disorder with considerable phenotypic variability, mainly affects the eyes, skin and cardiovascular system, characterised by dystrophic mineralization of connective tissues. It is caused by mutations in the ABCC6 (ATP binding cassette family C member 6) gene, which encodes MRP6 (multidrug resistance-associated protein 6). OBJECTIVE: To investigate the mutation spectrum of ABCC6 and possible genotype-phenotype correlations. METHODS: Mutation data were collected on an international case series of 270 patients with PXE (239 probands, 31 affected family members). A denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography-based assay was developed to screen for mutations in all 31 exons, eliminating pseudogene coamplification. In 134 patients with a known phenotype and both mutations identified, genotype-phenotype correlations were assessed. RESULTS: In total, 316 mutant alleles in ABCC6, including 39 novel mutations, were identified in 239 probands. Mutations were found to cluster in exons 24 and 28, corresponding to the second nucleotide-binding fold and the last intracellular domain of the protein. Together with the recurrent R1141X and del23-29 mutations, these mutations accounted for 71.5% of the total individual mutations identified. Genotype-phenotype analysis failed to reveal a significant correlation between the types of mutations identified or their predicted effect on the expression of the protein and the age of onset and severity of the disease. CONCLUSIONS: This study emphasises the principal role of ABCC6 mutations in the pathogenesis of PXE, but the reasons for phenotypic variability remain to be explored.

Mutational analysis of the ABCC6 gene and the proximal ABCC6 gene promoter in German patients with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE).
Hum Mutat. 2006 Aug;27(8):831., [PMID:16835894]

Abstract [show]
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a genetic disorder characterized by calcification of elastic fibers in dermal, ocular, and cardiovascular tissues. Recently, ABCC6 mutations were identified as causing PXE. In this follow-up study we report the investigation of 61 German PXE patients from 53 families, hitherto the largest cohort of German PXE patients screened for the complete ABCC6 gene. In addition, we characterized the proximal ABCC6 promoter of PXE patients according to mutation. In this study we identified 32 disease-causing ABCC6 variants, which had been described previously by us and others, and 10 novel mutations (eight missense mutations and two splice site alterations). The mutation detection rate among index patients was 87.7%. Frequent alterations were the PXE-mutations p.R1141X, Ex23,_Ex29del, and c.2787+1G > T. In the ABCC6 promoter we found the polymorphisms c.-127C > T, c.-132C > T, and c.-219A > C. The difference in the c.-219A > C frequencies between PXE patients and controls were determined as statistically significant. Interestingly, c.-219A > C is located in a transcriptional activator sequence of the ABCC6 promoter and occurred in a binding site for a transcriptional repressor, predominantly found in genes that participate in lipid metabolism. Obtaining these genetic data signifies our contribution to elucidating the pathogenetics of PXE.

Development of a rapid, reliable genetic test for pseudoxanthoma elasticum.
J Mol Diagn. 2007 Feb;9(1):105-12., [PMID:17251343]

Abstract [show]
Mutations in the human ABCC6 gene cause pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), a hereditary disorder that impacts the skin, eyes, and cardiovascular system. Currently, the diagnosis of PXE is based on physical findings and histological examination of a biopsy of affected skin. We have combined two simple, polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based methods to develop a rapid, reliable genetic assay for the majority of known PXE mutations. After PCR amplification and heteroduplex formation, mutations in exon 24 and exon 28 of the ABCC6 gene were detected with Surveyor nuclease, which cleaves double-stranded DNA at any mismatch site. Mutations originating from deletion of a segment of the ABCC6 gene between exon 23 and exon 29 (ex23_ex29del) were detected by long-range PCR. Size analysis of digestion fragments and long-range PCR products was performed by agarose gel electrophoresis. The methods accurately identified mutations or the absence thereof in 16 affected individuals as confirmed by DNA sequencing. Fifteen patients had one or two point mutations, and two of these individuals carried the ex23_ex29del in their second allele. This mutation detection and mapping strategy provides a simple and reliable genetic assay to assist in diagnosis of PXE, differential diagnosis of PXE-like conditions, and study of PXE genetics.

[hide] Heterozygosity for a single mutation in the ABCC6 ... Arch Dermatol. 2008 Mar;144(3):301-6. Martin L, Maitre F, Bonicel P, Daudon P, Verny C, Bonneau D, Le Saux O, Chassaing N
Heterozygosity for a single mutation in the ABCC6 gene may closely mimic PXE: consequences of this phenotype overlap for the definition of PXE.
Arch Dermatol. 2008 Mar;144(3):301-6., [PMID:18347285]

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: To illustrate a phenotypic overlap consisting of usual, but limited, or atypical manifestations of pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) between heterozygous carriers of a single ABCC6 mutation and patients diagnosed with PXE, carriers of homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations. DESIGN: Evaluation for full and typical, incomplete, mild, or overlooked PXE during a 5-year period (2001-2005) based on the following 1992 expert consensus conference items: (1) yellowish papular skin eruption, (2) dermal elastorrhexis and mineralization of elastic fibers in lesional skin, and (3) angioid streaks. Testing for ABCC6 mutations was performed in all cases after informed consent. SETTING: French multidisciplinary outpatient clinic for patients with PXE. PARTICIPANTS: Patients prospectively referred for PXE and first-degree relatives. Main Outcome Measure Prevalence of PXE with a limited or atypical phenotype and manifesting heterozygosity. RESULTS: Ninety-four patients were diagnosed as having PXE. Fifty-eight relatives were also examined, and none displayed the characteristic signs of the disease. Despite the histoclinical items and ABCC6 genotyping, we were unable to establish a definite diagnosis in 5 additional referred cases, ie, to distinguish between PXE with a limited or atypical phenotype and heterozygosity with skin and/or ophthalmologic and/or cardiovascular manifestations suggestive of PXE. CONCLUSIONS: We assume that all categories established at the 1992 consensus conference correspond to PXE, but that the 5 patients reported herein also have PXE. Homozygous, compound heterozygous, or heterozygous individuals may fulfill only some of the clinical and/or histopathologic consensus criteria of PXE. They cannot be placed into any category. Expressivity is highly variable in carriers of 1 or 2 ABCC6 mutations, and the disease manifestations overlap between both genotypes. Physicians should thus be more cautious with respect to the prognosis when faced with heterozygous relatives of a patient diagnosed with undisputable PXE. Indeed, heterozygotes may uncommonly experience severe ophthalmologic complications. Whether they may also have cardiovascular complications related to or worsened by PXE remains to be determined.
