Insight in eukaryotic ABC transporter function by mutation analysis.

Abstract [show]
With regard to structure-function relations of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters several intriguing questions are in the spotlight of active research: Why do functional ABC transporters possess two ATP binding and hydrolysis domains together with two ABC signatures and to what extent are the individual nucleotide-binding domains independent or interacting? Where is the substrate-binding site and how is ATP hydrolysis functionally coupled to the transport process itself? Although much progress has been made in the elucidation of the three-dimensional structures of ABC transporters in the last years by several crystallographic studies including novel models for the nucleotide hydrolysis and translocation catalysis, site-directed mutagenesis as well as the identification of natural mutations is still a major tool to evaluate effects of individual amino acids on the overall function of ABC transporters. Apart from alterations in characteristic sequence such as Walker A, Walker B and the ABC signature other parts of ABC proteins were subject to detailed mutagenesis studies including the substrate-binding site or the regulatory domain of CFTR. In this review, we will give a detailed overview of the mutation analysis reported for selected ABC transporters of the ABCB and ABCC subfamilies, namely HsCFTR/ABCC7, HsSUR/ABCC8,9, HsMRP1/ABCC1, HsMRP2/ABCC2, ScYCF1 and P-glycoprotein (Pgp)/MDR1/ABCB1 and their effects on the function of each protein.

Molecular analysis of the cystic fibrosis gene reveals a high frequency of the intron 8 splice variant 5T in Egyptian males with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens.
Mol Hum Reprod. 1999 Jan;5(1):10-3., [PMID:10050655]
Abstract [show]
It has previously been shown that defects in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene are largely responsible for the condition of congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD), without associated renal abnormalities, in Caucasian populations. To assess the involvement of the CFTR in CBAVD in a population with presumed low cystic fibrosis (CF) frequency, we have analysed 20 CBAVD males from Egypt for the presence of 12 common Caucasian CFTR mutations and the intron 8 5T splice variant, IVS-5T, known to be a major cause of CBAVD in Caucasian patients. In 16 of the males without associated renal abnormalities only one deltaF508 carrier was identified, but an exceptionally high frequency of the IVS-5T variant was found (14 of 32 alleles or 43.7%), confirming that this variant is involved in many cases of CBAVD, even in populations where CF is rare. CFTR mutations or the IVS-5T variant were found neither in the remaining four patients with associated renal abnormalities nor in the spouses of the 20 CBAVD patients. However, one patient was homozygous for a leucine to proline substitution at amino acid position 541 (L541P) of the CFTR. It is as yet not clear whether this change is involved in CBAVD in this male.

Abstract [show]
The spectrum of cystic fibrosis (CF) mutations in the North African population remains poorly known. In order to offer an effective diagnostic service and to determine accurate risk estimates, we decided to identify the CF mutations in 10 Algerian CF families. We carried out a chemical-clamp denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analysis of the CFTR gene and automated direct DNA sequencing. We identified 5 mutations and we characterized 60% of the CF chromosomes. Taking advantage of the homogeneity of the sample, we report clinical features of homozygous CF patients.

The complex relationships between cystic fibrosis and congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens: clinical, electrophysiological and genetic data.
Hum Reprod. 1999 Feb;14(2):371-4., [PMID:10099982]
Abstract [show]
Congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) is found in 1-2% of infertile males and in most male cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. CF and some of the CBAVD cases were found to share the same genetic background. In this study, 21 males with CBAVD had extensive physical and laboratory testing for symptoms of CF. Possible defective cellular chloride transport was measured by interstitial current measurement of rectal suction biopsies. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutation analysis was performed for 10 common CFTR mutations. CF-related symptoms were found in six men. On laboratory testing slightly abnormal liver and pancreatic function was found in seven patients. The sweat test was found to be abnormal in four patients; interstitial current measurement showed defective chloride excretion in 11 patients. CFTR gene mutations were found in 66% of the patients: eight were compound heterozygotes; in six, only one common mutation could be detected. The 5T allele in one copy of intron 8 was found in four men. CBAVD appears to be a heterogeneous clinical and genetic condition. A CFTR gene mutation was found in both copies of the allele or interstitial current measurement showed defective chloride excretion in 14/21 cases. Genetic counselling is clearly indicated for couples seeking pregnancy through epididymal or testicular sperm aspiration and intracytoplasmic sperm injection.

Hum Gene Ther. 1999 Apr 10;10(6):861-75., 1999-04-10 [PMID:10223721]
Abstract [show]
Cl(-)-sensitive fluorescent indicators have been used extensively in cell culture systems to measure the Cl(-)-transporting function of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein CFTR. These indicators have been used in establishing a surrogate end point to assess the efficacy of CFTR cDNA delivery in human gene therapy trials. The ability to measure Cl- transport with high sensitivity in small and heterogeneous tissue samples makes the use of Cl- indicators potentially attractive in gene delivery studies. In this review article, the important technical aspects of Cl- transport measurements by fluorescent indicators such as SPQ are described, applications of Cl- indicators to assay CFTR function are critically evaluated, and new methodological developments are discussed. The available Cl- indicators have been effective in quantifying Cl- transport rates in cell culture models and in vitro systems such as isolated membrane vesicles and liposomes. However, the imperfect photophysical properties of existing Cl- indicators limit their utility in performing measurements in airway tissues, where gene transfer vectors are delivered in CF gene therapy trials. The low efficiency of gene transfer and the cellular heterogeneity in airway samples pose substantial obstacles to functional measurements of CFTR expression. Significant new developments in generating long-wavelength and dual-wavelength halide indicators are described, and recommendations are proposed for the use of the indicators in gene therapy trials.

Blood immunoreactive trypsinogen concentrations are genetically determined in healthy and cystic fibrosis newborns.
Acta Paediatr. 1999 Mar;88(3):338-41., [PMID:10229049]
Abstract [show]
Newborns with cystic fibrosis (CF) have increased blood immunoreactive trypsinogen concentrations. When screening for CF in the newborn by immunoreactive trypsinogen measurement, an abnormally high proportion of healthy deltaF508 carriers is found among false-positive neonates, suggesting that a relationship could exist between immunoreactive trypsinogen concentration at birth and the genetic status. Therefore, this study analysed the possible relationships between neonatal blood immunoreactive trypsinogen concentrations and genotype in 1842 healthy newborns and 111 CF patients detected by a neonatal screening programme. A close correlation was found between immunoreactive trypsinogen and deltaF508: the probability of a healthy newborn being a carrier of this mutation increased regularly with the neonatal immunoreactive trypsinogen concentration. In CF patients, there was a significant difference between deltaF508 homozygotes and deltaF508/X (X = other mutation) compound heterozygotes with respect to the mean neonatal blood immunoreactive trypsinogen concentration. CF neonates with two mutations affecting the nucleotide binding domains of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein had significantly higher mean immunoreactive trypsinogen concentrations than patients with one mutation affecting a membrane-spanning domain. The data strongly suggest that the neonatal immunoreactive trypsinogen concentration is, in part, genetically determined, with a wide range of variations, similar to the features which have been shown for the relations between the genotype and clinical phenotypes of CF patients.

Abstract [show]
AIM: To determine whether pancreatitis associated protein (PAP) is a marker for cystic fibrosis which could be used in neonatal screening for the disease. METHODS: PAP was assayed on screening cards from 202,807 neonates. Babies with PAP > or = 15 ng/ml, or > or = 11.5 ng/ml and immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) > or = 700 ng/ml were recalled for clinical examination, sweat testing, and cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene analysis. RESULTS: Median PAP value was 2.8 ng/ml. Forty four cases of cystic fibrosis were recorded. Recalled neonates (n = 398) included only 11 carriers. A receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that PAP above 8.0 ng/ml would select 0.76% of babies, including all those with cystic fibrosis, except for one with meconium ileus and two with mild CFTR mutations. Screening 27,146 babies with both PAP and IRT showed that only 0.12% had PAP > 8.0 ng/ml and IRT > 700 ng/ml, including all cases of cystic fibrosis. CONCLUSION: PAP is increased in most neonates with cystic fibrosis and could be used for CF screening. Its combination with IRT looks promising.

Abstract [show]
Heterologous expression of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) provided evidence that the major cystic fibrosis (CF) mutation DeltaF508 leads to defective protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum, which prevents its processing and targeting to the cell surface. In this study, we investigated endogenous CFTR expression in skin biopsies and respiratory and intestinal tissue specimens from DeltaF508 homozygous and non-CF patients, using immunohistochemical and immunoblot analyses with a panel of CFTR antibodies. CFTR expression was detected at the luminal surface of reabsorptive sweat ducts and airway submucosal glands, at the apex of ciliated cells in pseudostratified respiratory epithelia and of isolated cells of the villi of duodenum and jejunum, and within intracellular compartments of intestinal goblet cells. In DeltaF508 homozygous patients, expression of the mutant protein proved to be tissue specific. Whereas DeltaF508 CFTR was undetectable in sweat glands, the expression in the respiratory and intestinal tracts could not be distinguished from the wild-type by signal intensity or localization. The tissue-specific variation of DeltaF508 CFTR expression from null to apparently normal amounts indicates that DeltaF508 CFTR maturation can be modulated and suggests that determinants other than CFTR mislocalization should play a role in DeltaF508 CF respiratory and intestinal disease.

Abstract [show]
The present study was undertaken to evaluate the frequency and nature of mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene in infertile patients undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection. A total of 90 patients were screened for a panel of 10 mutations in the CFTR gene frequently involved in congenital absence of the vas deferens (CAVD); the patients included 14 with azoospermia and CAVD, 39 patients with azoospermia without CAVD (n = 39) and 37 patients with severe oligozoospermia. The length of the polymorphic polypyrimidine tract (allele 5T, 7T and 9T) in the intron 8/exon 9 splice-acceptor site was also determined. In 10 out of 14 patients with CAVD, CFTR mutations were found; nine patients had one DeltaISOdiaDeltaF508 mutation and one patient had two CFTR mutations (N1303K/R117H). Allele 5T was present in eight of these patients. In six patients, 5T was the non-DeltaISOdiaDeltaF508 allele and in two patients there was no known CFTR mutation. None of the CFTR mutations were observed in patients with azoospermia without CAVD or with severe oligozoospermia and the frequency of allele 5T was 3.6% (three out of 78 alleles) and 1.35% (one out of 74 alleles) respectively. Our observation suggests that the CFTR gene is not involved in either spermatogenesis or in the pathology of the genital tract, except for CAVD.

Proportion of cystic fibrosis gene mutations not detected by routine testing in men with obstructive azoospermia.
JAMA. 1999 Jun 16;281(23):2217-24., 1999-06-16 [PMID:10376575]
Abstract [show]
CONTEXT: Infertile men with obstructive azoospermia may have mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, many of which are rare in classic cystic fibrosis and not evaluated in most routine mutation screening. OBJECTIVE: To assess how often CFTR mutations or sequence alterations undetected by routine screening are detected with more extensive screening in obstructive azoospermia. DESIGN: Routine screening for the 31 most common CFTR mutations associated with the CF phenotype in white populations, testing for the 5-thymidine variant of the polythymidine tract of intron 8 (IVS8-5T) by allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridization, and screening of all exons through multiplex heteroduplex shift analysis followed by direct DNA sequencing. SETTING: Male infertility clinic of a Canadian university-affiliated hospital. SUBJECTS: Of 198 men with obstructive (n = 149) or nonobstructive (n = 49; control group) azoospermia, 64 had congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD), 10 had congenital unilateral absence of the vas deferens (CUAVD), and 75 had epididymal obstruction (56/75 were idiopathic). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Frequency of mutations found by routine and nonroutine tests in men with obstructive vs nonobstructive azoospermia. RESULTS: Frequency of mutations and the IVS8-5T variant in the nonobstructive azoospermia group (controls) (2% and 5.1% allele frequency, respectively) did not differ significantly from that in the general population (2% and 5.2%, respectively). In the CBAVD group, 72 mutations were found by DNA sequencing and IVS8-5T testing (47 and 25, respectively; P<.001 and P = .002 vs controls) vs 39 by the routine panel (P<.001 vs controls). In the idiopathic epididymal obstruction group, 24 mutations were found by DNA sequencing and IVS8-5T testing (12 each; P=.01 and P=.14 vs controls) vs 5 by the routine panel (P=.33 vs controls). In the CUAVD group, 2 mutations were found by routine testing (P=.07 vs controls) vs 4 (2 each, respectively; P=.07 and P=.40 vs controls) by DNA sequencing and IVS8-5T testing. The routine panel did not identify 33 (46%) of 72, 2 (50%) of 4, and 19 (79%) of 24 detectable CFTR mutations and IVS8-5T in the CBAVD, CUAVD, and idiopathic epididymal obstruction groups, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Routine testing for CFTR mutations may miss mild or rare gene alterations. The barrier to conception for men with obstructive infertility has been overcome by assisted reproductive technologies, thus raising the concern of iatrogenically transmitting pathogenic CFTR mutations to the progeny.

Detection of five rare cystic fibrosis mutations peculiar to Southern Italy: implications in screening for the disease and phenotype characterization for patients with homozygote mutations.
Clin Chem. 1999 Jul;45(7):957-62., [PMID:10388469]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The search for the eight most frequent mutations (i.e., DeltaF508, G542X, W1282X, N1303K, 1717-1G-->A, R553X, 2183AA-->G, and I148T) by allele-specific oligonucleotide dot-blot analysis revealed 78% of 396 cystic fibrosis alleles in Southern Italy. The observation of frequent haplotypes on the unidentified cystic fibrosis alleles suggested that a few mutations could account for a large number of unidentified alleles. METHODS: We screened most of the coding sequence of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator gene by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis to determine the spectrum of these mutations in 68 unrelated cystic fibrosis patients bearing one or both unidentified mutations. RESULTS: The screening revealed five mutations, R1158X, 711+1G-->T, 4016insT, L1065P, and G1244E, each of which had a frequency of 1.3-1.8% (7% collectively). The 7% increase in the detection rate (85% vs 78%) reduces by >50% the residual risk of being cystic fibrosis carriers for couples who had tested negative by molecular analysis. We therefore designed a second allele-specific oligonucleotide set to analyze the five mutations. Among the patients analyzed, one patient homozygous for the L1065P mutation expressed a mild pulmonary and intestinal form of the disease with pancreatic insufficiency. Two other patients, homozygous for mutations R1158X and 4016insT, both expressed a severe cystic fibrosis phenotype. CONCLUSIONS: Five cystic fibrosis mutations are peculiar to patients from Southern Italy. The method described for their analysis is efficient, inexpensive, and can be semi-automated by use of a robotic workstation. The results obtained in patients from Southern Italy may have an impact on laboratories in other countries, given the large migrations of populations from Southern Italy to other countries in the last two centuries.

Frequency of CFTR gene mutations in males participating in an ICSI programme.
Hum Reprod. 1999 Jul;14(7):1833-4., [PMID:10402399]
Abstract [show]
A higher prevalence of cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene mutations has been suggested both in men affected by congenital aplasia of the vas deferens, and in individuals presenting with reduced sperm quality. In this case, an increased risk for offspring being affected by cystic fibrosis (CF) can be expected in couples who are planning to undergo intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), since most of the male partners suffer from infertility. In order to determine the risk for these couples more precisely, we offered them a test for the most frequent CF mutations prevalent in the German population. The frequency of mutations within the CFTR gene in the female group was in the same range as expected for the general population (six out of 150). In 10 out of 207 males tested, infertility could be explained by exogenous factors not related to CFTR. Among the remaining 197 males with idiopathic infertility, we detected 13 heterozygotes for a mutation within the CFTR gene. This slightly, but significantly (P = 0.014), elevated rate could indicate that infertile males have, compared with the general population, an increased risk of being a carrier of a CFTR gene mutation.

Abstract [show]
The large size of many disease genes and the multiplicity of mutations complicate the design of an adequate assay for the identification of disease-causing variants. One of the most successful methods for mutation detection is the single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) technique. By varying temperature, gel composition, ionic strength and additives, we optimised the sensitivity of SSCP for all 27 exons of the CFTR gene. Using simultaneously SSCP and heteroduplex (HD) analysis, a total of 80 known CF mutations (28 missense, 22 frameshift, 17 nonsense, 13 splicesite) and 20 polymorphisms was analysed resulting in a detection rate of 97.5% including the 24 most common mutations worldwide. The ability of this technique to detect mutations independent of their nature, frequency, and population specificity was confirmed by the identification of five novel mutations (420del9, 1199delG, R560S, A613T, T1299I) in Swiss CF patients, as well as by the detection of 41 different mutations in 198 patients experimentally analysed. We present a three-stage screening strategy allowing analysis of seven exons within 5 hours and analysis of the entire coding region within 1 week, including sequence analysis of the variants. Additionally, our protocol represents a general model for point mutation analysis in other genetic disorders and has already been successfully established for OTC deficiency, collagene deficiency, X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM), Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD, BMD), Wilson disease (WD), Neurofibromatosis I and II, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies, and defects in mitochondrial DNA. No other protocol published so far presents standard SSCP/HD conditions for mutation screening in different disease genes.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: Molecular biological testing for genetic diseases has grown rapidly, but speed, accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, throughput, and cost become more important as large scale screening is considered. This is a pilot study of an assay for the simultaneous detection of up to 31 cystic fibrosis mutations in a multicentre population based screening of 4476 Italian newborns. METHODS: The assay is a polymerase chain reaction, followed by an oligonucleotide ligation assay (PCR/OLA) and finally a sequence coded separation. It allows the detection of up to 31 mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Guthrie spots were used as a source of template DNA. RESULTS: 144 carriers were detected during the analysis of 4476 samples, which translates into a carrier frequency of 1/31.1. Forty two carriers were detected from 1341 samples in Pavia (1/31.9), 53 from 1574 in Turin (1/29.7), and 49 from 1561 in San Giovanni Rotondo (1/31.8). Fifteen different mutations were detected, the most common being delta F508 (0.625). Other common mutations included G542X (16 of 144), which was particularly common in southern Italy (14 of 49), N1303K (8 of 144), and R117H (8 of 144), detected only in the northern centres. CONCLUSIONS: PCR/OLA is a robust, accurate, user friendly method for cystic fibrosis screening of newborns using blood spots in a semiautomated way at a low cost per mutation (0.8 Euro).

Pulmonary outcome in cystic fibrosis is influenced primarily by mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection and immune status and only modestly by genotype.
Infect Immun. 1999 Sep;67(9):4744-50., [PMID:10456926]
Abstract [show]
Whether allelic variants of the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) independently contribute to pulmonary outcome in CF patients has not been resolved. We used both cross-sectional and mixed-model longitudinal analyses of data from CF patients that were at least 12 years old to determine the influence on pulmonary function (percent predicted forced expiratory volume [FEV(1)]) of the CFTR gene genotype, gender, mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MPA) infection status, presence of total opsonic antibody to MPA, and, separately, the opsonic antibody activity specific to the mucoid exopolysaccharide (MEP) surface antigen. Two different factors were independently associated with the lack of MPA infection: a high level of MEP-specific opsonic activity (MSOA), implicating an immunologically based mechanism of resistance to infection, and a lack of any type of opsonic antibody to MPA, indicative of no significant exposure or infection. This latter phenotype was found in a subset of CF patients who carried at least one uncommon CFTR gene allele suggestive of a genetic basis for resistance to infection in this group of older CF patients. For CF patients in whom both CFTR gene alleles were identified by screening for the 12 most common variants (75% of alleles), cross-sectional analysis showed that MPA infection was best correlated with lower percent predicted FEV(1), while genotype (two versus one DeltaF508 CFTR gene allele) and a low level of MSOA were associated with increased risk of infection. A mixed-model analysis of longitudinal spirometric measurements that considered multiple risk factors to derive regression equations was used to determine which clinical parameters had the greatest effect on the annual rate of decline in percent predicted FEV(1). This analysis showed that the CFTR gene genotype only modestly modified the constant (y intercept) of the derived equations, while gender and MPA infection status had the largest effects on annual rates of decline in percent predicted FEV(1). These results indicate that the CFTR genotype is usually not a primary determinant of pulmonary function in most CF patients, but gender and MPA infection status are. Infection status is potentially influenced by both immunologic (a high level of MSOA) and genetic factors, such as carriage of a CFTR gene allele that leads to a diagnosis of CF but still confers resistance to infection that is comparable to that of the wild-type CFTR gene.

Abstract [show]
We recently reported a novel complex allele in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene, combining a sequence change in the minimal CFTR promoter (-102T>A) and a missense mutation in exon 11 [S549R(T>G)]. Here we compare the main clinical features of six patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) carrying the complex allele [-102T>A+S549R(T>G)] with those of 16 CF patients homozygous for mutation S549R(T>G) alone. Age at diagnosis was higher, and current age was significantly higher (P=0.0032) in the group with the complex allele, compared with the S549R/S549R group. Although the proportion of patients with lung colonization was similar in both groups, the age at onset was significantly higher in the group with the complex allele (P=0.0022). Patients with the complex allele also had significantly lower sweat test chloride values (P=0.0028) and better overall clinical scores (P=0.004). None of the 22 patients reported in this study had meconium ileus. All 16 patients homozygous for S549R(T>G), however, were pancreatic insufficient, as compared with 50% of patients carrying the complex allele (P=0.013). Moreover, the unique patient homozygous for [-102T>A+S549R(T>G)] presented with a mild disease at 34 years of age. These observations strongly suggest that the sequence change (-102T>A) in the CFTR minimal promoter could attenuate the severe clinical phenotype associated with mutation S549R(T>G).

Rev Mal Respir. 1999 Sep;16(4):495-509., [PMID:10549060]
Abstract [show]
Respiratory disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis was long treated in the pediatric setting, but improved survival has led to the implication of adult pneumology in therapeutic management. Since the gene causing cystic fibrosis has been clone, our knowledge of the pathophysiology of the disease has literally exploded, particularly concerning the deleterious consequences of defective expression and distribution of CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) protein in chronic lung inflammation and infection. This knowledge has led to an optimization of existing therapeutic strategies and to the formulation of hypotheses for the development of new pharmaceutical reagents, allowing an assessment of disease outcome not only in terms of survival but also in terms of quality of life. Early in vivo clinical trials have been encouraging although the efficacy of gene transfer and expression remain modest and the optimal vector remains to be determined. Different potential pharmacological approaches are being studied in order to correct for defective CFTR function at different levels of gene mutation, and to modulate the disorder in transepithelial ionic transfer. One could expect in the near future to see combinations of complementary genotype-specific drugs used for the treatment of cystic fibrosis after patient genotyping to categorize the type of mutation.

Abstract [show]
A third-generation adenoviral vector containing recombinant human cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene was delivered by bronchoscope in escalating doses to the conducting airway of 11 volunteers with cystic fibrosis. Assessments of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), efficiency of gene transfer, and cell-mediated and humoral immune responses to vector administration were performed. DLT, manifest by flulike symptoms and transient radiographic infiltrates, was seen at 2.1 x 10(11) total viral particles. A highly specific assay for gene transfer was developed using in situ hybridization with an oligoprobe against unique vector sequence. Detectable gene transfer was observed in harvested bronchial epithelial cells (<1%) 4 days after vector instillation, which diminished to undetectable levels by day 43. Adenovirus-specific cell-mediated T cells were induced in most subjects, although only mild increases in systemic humoral immune response were observed. These results demonstrate that gene transfer to epithelium of the lower respiratory tract can be achieved in humans with adenoviral vectors but that efficiency is low and of short duration in the native CF airway.

Rapid F508del and F508C assay using fluorescent hybridization probes.
Genet Test. 1999;3(4):365-70., [PMID:10627945]
Abstract [show]
Amplification and fluorescent genotyping of the cystic fibrosis F508del locus was achieved from human genomic DNA in less than 30 min. The hybridization of adjacent fluorescent probes at the mutation site was monitored by resonance energy transfer between fluorescein and Cy5 during heating or cooling. Characteristic curves were obtained for each genotype; the first derivative of these fluorescent curves has a maximum at an apparent hybridization temperature (Tm) that is specific for each probe/allele duplex. The direction and rate of temperature change determines the difference between the apparent Tm and the true equilibrium Tm. One hundred and five sample were genotyped for the F508del cystic fibrosis mutation by heating and cooling curve profiles. These genotypes were validated by allele-specific amplification. Two fluorescein hybridization probes were designed to match the wild-type sequence perfectly from either codons 502 to 513 or from 504 to 511 on the cystic fibrosis transconductance regulator gene of chromosome 7. While genotyping for the F508del, an allele with the F508C base change was detected. For both F508del and F508C variants, the Tm shift from wild type was greater with a 24-mer probe than with a 35-mer probe. Fluorescent monitoring of hybridization probes is a versatile technique that can detect unexpected sequence alterations.

Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2000 Mar;161(3 Pt 1):860-5., [PMID:10712334]
Abstract [show]
Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene containing a premature termination signal are expected to produce little or no CFTR chloride channels. It has been shown in vitro, that aminoglycoside antibiotics can increase the frequency of erroneous insertion of nonsense codons hence permitting the translation of CFTR alleles carrying missense mutations to continue reading to the end of the gene. This led to the appearance of functional CFTR channels at the apical plasma membrane. The aim of this research was to determine if topical application of gentamicin to the nasal epithelium of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) carrying stop mutations can express, in vivo, functional CFTR channels. Nine CF patients carrying stop mutations (mean age 23 +/- 11 yr, range 12 to 46 yr) received gentamicin drops (0.3%, 3 mg/ml) three times daily intranasally for a total of 14 d. Nasal potential difference (PD) was measured before and after the treatment. Before gentamicin application all the patients had abnormal nasal PD typical of CF. After gentamicin treatment, significant repolarization of the nasal epithelium representing chloride transport was increased from -1 +/- 1 mV to -10 +/- 11 mV (p < 0. 001). In conclusion, gentamicin may influence the underlying chloride transport abnormality in patients with CF carrying stop mutations.

Clin Genet. 2000 Jan;57(1):56-60., [PMID:10733236]
Abstract [show]
Myocardial necrosis and fibrosis is a rare complication of cystic fibrosis (CF) causing sudden and unexpected death in infancy due to cardiac arrest. Characteristic morphological lesions are recognisable postmortem. The 18 CF patients with this complication had varied clinical features including mild pulmonary involvement, early onset severe pancreatic insufficiency, and profound electrocardiogram (ECG) changes. In this group of patients, 5 were deltaF508 homozygotes, 1 was deltaF508/ N1303K and 1 was a deltaF508/M compound heterozygote. A pair of affected siblings (deltaF508 homozygotes) were fully concordant for myocardial involvement and for the general course of the disease. The co-existence of a genetic predisposition to myocardial lesions resulting most probably from severe cystic fibrosis transmembrane (CFTR) genotypes (such as deltaF508/deltaF508, deltaF508/N1303K) and deficiency of certain trophic factors necessary for metabolism of the myocardium, are postulated to cause myocardial complications in CF leading to circulatory failure and early death.

Abstract [show]
Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene are a relatively frequent cause of male infertility. Depending on their molecular consequences, CFTR mutations may either result in typical cystic fibrosis (CF), one of the most common autosomal recessive disorders, which is characterized by chronic lung disease, pancreatic exocrine insufficiency, an increase in the concentration of sweat electrolytes and male infertility, due to obstructive azoospermia, or in atypical (often monosymptomatic) forms of CF such as congenital absence of the vas deferens (bi- or unilateral), bilateral ejaculatory duct obstruction or bilateral obstructions within the epididymides. All males with idiopathic obstructive azoospermia bear an increased risk for CF offspring. Couples requesting microsurgical epididymal sperm aspiration and in vitro fertilization, e.g. intracytoplasmic sperm injection, should be offered genetic counselling and molecular genetic analysis of the CFTR gene, if male infertility due to obstructive azoospermia is the underlying cause.

Branch migration inhibition in PCR-amplified DNA: homogeneous mutation detection.
Nucleic Acids Res. 2000 May 1;28(9):E42., 2000-05-01 [PMID:10756209]
Abstract [show]
A novel method for detection of any mutation located within a PCR-amplified DNA sequence was demonstrated. The method is based on the inhibition of spontaneous DNA branch migration. Partial duplexes produced by PCR amplification of a test and a reference genomic DNA sample anneal to form four-stranded cruciform structures. Spontaneous DNA branch migration results in dissociation of these structures when the test and reference sequences are identical. Any base substitution, deletion or insertion inhibits branch migration and produces stable cruciform structures. When suitable ligands are attached to the PCR primers, the cruciform structures can be detected by standard immunochemical methods. This approach was tested using several commonly occurring mutations within the human cystic fibrosis gene. New methods for increasing the specificity of PCR amplifications are described that were used for successful mutation analysis.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene which encodes a protein expressed in the apical membrane of exocrine epithelial cells. CFTR functions principally as a cAMP-induced chloride channel and appears capable of regulating other ion channels. Besides the most common mutation, DeltaF508, accounting for about 70% of CF chromosomes worldwide, more than 850 mutant alleles have been reported to the CF Genetic Analysis Consortium. These mutations affect CFTR through a variety of molecular mechanisms which can produce little or no functional CFTR at the apical membrane. This genotypic variation provides a rationale for phenotypic effects of the specific mutations. The extent to which various CFTR alleles contribute to clinical variation in CF is evaluated by genotype-phenotype studies. These demonstrated that the degree of correlation between CFTR genotype and CF phenotype varies between its clinical components and is highest for the pancreatic status and lowest for pulmonary disease. The poor correlation between CFTR genotype and severity of lung disease strongly suggests an influence of environmental and secondary genetic factors (CF modifiers). Several candidate genes related to innate and adaptive immune response have been implicated as pulmonary CF modifiers. In addition, the presence of a genetic CF modifier for meconium ileus has been demonstrated on human chromosome 19q13.2. The phenotypic spectrum associated with mutations in the CFTR gene extends beyond the classically defined CF. Besides patients with atypical CF, there are large numbers of so-called monosymptomatic diseases such as various forms of obstructive azoospermia, idiopathic pancreatitis or disseminated bronchiectasis associated with CFTR mutations uncharacteristic for CF. The composition, frequency and type of CFTR mutations/variants parallel the spectrum of CFTR-associated phenotypes, from classic CF to mild monosymptomatic presentations. Expansion of the spectrum of disease associated with the CFTR mutant genes creates a need for revision of the diagnostic criteria for CF and a dilemma for setting nosologic boundaries between CF and other diseases with CFTR etiology.

Abstract [show]
We have performed molecular genetic analyses on 160 Brazilian patients diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF). Screening of mutations in 320 CF chromosomes was performed through single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) and heteroduplex analyses assay followed by DNA sequencing of the 27 exons and exon/intron boundaries of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. The frequency of CFTR variants of T-tract length of intron 8 (IVS8 Tn) was also investigated. This analysis enabled the detection of 232/320 CF mutations (72.2%) and complete genotyping of 61% of the patients. The deltaF508 mutation was found in 48.4% of the alleles. Another fifteen mutations (previously reported) were detected: G542X, R1162X, N1303K, R334W, W1282X, G58E, L206W, R553X, 621+1G-->T, V232D, 1717-1G-->A, 2347 delG, R851L, 2789+5G-->A, and W1089X. Five novel mutations were identified, V201M (exon 6a), Y275X (exon 6b), 2686 insT (exon 14a), 3171 delC (exon 17a), and 3617 delGA (exon 19). These results contribute to the molecular characterization of CF in the Brazilian population. In addition, the identification of the novel mutation Y275X allowed prenatal diagnosis in a high-risk fetus.

Abstract [show]
We have analyzed 97 CF unrelated Mexican families for mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Our initial screening for 12 selected CFTR mutations led to mutation detection in 56.66% of the tested chromosomes. In patients with at least one unknown mutation after preliminary screening, an extensive analysis of the CFTR gene by single stranded conformation polymorphism (SSCP) or by multiplex heteroduplex (mHET) analysis was performed. A total of 34 different mutations representing 74.58% of the CF chromosomes were identified, including five novel CFTR mutations: W1098C, P750L, 846delT, 4160insGGGG and 297-1G-->A. The level of detection of the CF mutations in Mexico is still lower than that observed in other populations with a relatively low frequency of the deltaF508 mutation, mainly from southern Europe. The CFTR gene analysis described here clearly demonstrated the high heterogeneity of our CF population, which could be explained by the complex ethnic composition of the Mexican population, in particular by the strong impact of the genetic pool from southern European countries.

Applicability of different antibodies for immunohistochemical localization of CFTR in sweat glands from healthy controls and from patients with cystic fibrosis.
J Histochem Cytochem. 2000 Jun;48(6):831-7., [PMID:10820156]
Abstract [show]
The hereditary disease cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Understanding of the consequences of CFTR gene mutations is derived chiefly from in vitro studies on heterologous cell cultures and on cells hyperexpressing CFTR. Data from ex vivo studies on human tissue are scarce and contradictory, a fact which is in part explained by secondary tissue destruction in most affected organs. The purpose of this study was to establish conditions under which wild-type and mutated CFTR can be studied in affected human tissue. Sweat glands carry the basic defect underlying CF and are not affected by tissue destruction and inflammation. Therefore, we used this tissue to test a panel of eight different CFTR antibodies under various fixation techniques. The antibodies were tested on skin biopsy sections from healthy controls, from CF patients homozygous for the most common mutation, DeltaF508, and from patients carrying two nonsense mutations. Of the eight CFTR antibodies, only three-M3A7, MATG 1104, and cc24-met the criteria necessary for immunolocalization of CFTR in sweat glands. The labeling pattern in the CF sweat glands was consistent with the postulated processing defect of DeltaF508 CFTR. The antibodies exhibited different sensitivities for detecting DeltaF508 CFTR.

Abstract [show]
Recent studies demonstrate in vivo and in vitro cytokine dysregulation in CF epithelial cells. To see if these abnormalities may be generalized to other cells expressing cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) but not directly exposed to local inflammation, we studied mRNA transcription, intracellular protein production and extracellular secretion of IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-10 and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) from freshly isolated blood mononuclear and CD4+ T cells from CF patients and controls. Cells were activated by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and anti-CD3, PMA-ionomycin, or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and assessed for cytokine mRNA transcription by semiquantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, intracellular protein production by flow cytometry, and secretion by supernatant ELISA. Cytokine expression was highly stimulus-dependent. CF cells showed higher IL-10 transcription than control cells after maximal activation by LPS (P = 0.01); despite this, cytokine production and secretion were equivalent to controls. CF cells showed lower cellular IL-10 production after PMA-anti-CD3 activation (P = 0.002). CF cells secreted less IFN-gamma than control cells after maximal activation by PMA-anti-CD3 (1836 +/- 273 pg/ml versus 9635 +/- 3437 pg/ml, P = 0.04). IL-2, IL-4 and IL-5 regulation was similar to controls. We conclude that CF mononuclear cells show selective cytokine dysregulation after maximal activation, namely reduced IFN-gamma secretion and increased IL-10 mRNA without increased production or secretion. These findings extend defects described in respiratory epithelial cells to circulating immunoregulatory cells, suggesting a link between CF genotype and cytokine dysregulation.

Heterogeneity for mutations in the CFTR gene and clinical correlations in patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens.
Hum Reprod. 2000 Jul;15(7):1476-83., [PMID:10875853]
Abstract [show]
Congenital absence of the vas deferens (CAVD) is a heterogeneous disorder, largely due to mutations in the cystic fibrosis (CFTR) gene. Patients with unilateral absence of the vas deferens (CUAVD) and patients with CAVD in association with renal agenesis appear to have a different aetiology to those with isolated CAVD. We have studied 134 Spanish CAVD patients [110 congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) and 24 CUAVD], 16 of whom (six CBAVD, 10 CUAVD) had additional renal anomalies. Forty-two different CFTR mutations were identified, seven of them being novel. Some 45% of the CFTR mutations were specific to CAVD, and were not found in patients with cystic fibrosis or in the general Spanish population. CFTR mutations were detected in 85% of CBAVD patients and in 38% of those with CUAVD. Among those patients with renal anomalies, 31% carried one CFTR mutation. Anomalies in seminal vesicles and ejaculatory ducts were common in patients with CAVD. The prevalence of cryptorchidism and inguinal hernia appeared to be increased in CAVD patients, as well as nasal pathology and frequent respiratory infections. This study confirms the molecular heterogeneity of CFTR mutations in CAVD, and emphasizes the importance of an extensive CFTR analysis in these patients. In contrast with previous studies, this report suggests that CFTR might have a role in urogenital anomalies.

Abstract [show]
The major cause of mortality in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) is lung disease. Expression of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene product in the airways is a potential treatment. Clinical studies in which the CFTR cDNA was delivered to the respiratory epithelia of CF patients have resulted in modest, transient gene expression. It seems likely that repeated administration of the gene transfer vector will be required for long-term gene expression. We have undertaken a double-blinded study in which multiple doses of a DNA/liposome formulation were delivered to the nasal epithelium of CF patients. Ten subjects received plasmid DNA expressing the CFTR cDNA complexed with DC-Chol/DOPE cationic liposomes, whilst two subjects received placebo. Each subject received three doses, administered 4 weeks apart. There was no evidence of inflammation, toxicity or an immune response towards the DNA/liposomes or the expressed CFTR. Nasal epithelial cells were collected 4 days after each dose for a series of efficacy assays including quantitation of vector-specific DNA and mRNA, immunohistochemistry of CFTR protein, bacterial adherence, and detection of halide efflux ex vivo. Airway ion transport was also assessed in vivo by repeated nasal potential difference (PD) measurements. On average, six of the treated subjects were positive for CFTR gene transfer after each dose. All subjects positive for CFTR function were also positive for plasmid DNA, plasmid-derived mRNA and CFTR protein. The efficacy measures suggest that unlike high doses of recombinant adenoviral vectors, DNA/liposomes can be successfully re-administered without apparent loss of efficacy.

Respiration. 2000;67(4):351-7., [PMID:10940786]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder that is caused by over 850 different mutations in the CF gene. It is useful to group these mutations according to the defect that results in the CFTR mRNA or protein. New pharmacological treatments targeted towards specific mutations that are relatively common are being developed. Class I mutations do not produce CFTR protein because of a premature stop signal in the CFTR DNA. These null mutations can be corrected by certain aminoglycosides which cause the aberrant stop signal to be skipped. Mutations leading to a CFTR protein that attains an unstable structure shortly after translation in the endoplasmic reticulum form class II. Class II mutations can be restored to the protein trafficking pathway by manipulation of chaperone protein/CFTR interactions with chemical chaperones or drugs that affect gene regulation such as the butyrates. Production of a CFTR with reduced Cl(-) transport on the basis of abnormal regulation of the chloride channel is the basis of class III. Genistein can overcome this block in regulation. Mutations that partially reduce chloride conductance through CFTR (class IV) can be stimulated with milrinone, which is a phosphodiesterase inhibitor. Finally, mutations that lead to a severe reduction in normal CFTR protein form class V. Increased levels of CFTR could be generated with the butyrates or supplemented with gene therapy. Although most of the reported mutations in CFTR are rare and unclassified, it may be possible to use genotype-phenotype correlations to determine the best approach.

Mutations of the cystic fibrosis gene, but not cationic trypsinogen gene, are associated with recurrent or chronic idiopathic pancreatitis.
Am J Gastroenterol. 2000 Aug;95(8):2061-7., [PMID:10950058]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: We investigated whether mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene and cationic trypsinogen gene are associated with recurrent acute, or chronic idiopathic pancreatitis. METHODS: Twenty patients with idiopathic pancreatitis (11 women, nine men; mean age, 30 yr) were studied for the presence of a CFTR mutation by screening the genomic DNA for more than 30 mutations and variants in the CFTR gene. Selected mutations of the cationic trypsinogen gene were screened by Afl III restriction digestion or by a mutation-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In each patient exons 1, 2, and 3 of the cationic trypsinogen gene were sequenced. Patients with a CFTR mutation underwent evaluation of further functional electrophysiological test (intestinal current measurement). RESULTS: No mutation of the cationic trypsinogen gene was detected. A CFTR mutation was detected in 6/20 (30.0%) patients. Three patients (15.0%) had a cystic fibrosis (CF) mutation on one chromosome (deltaF508, I336K, Y1092X), which is known to cause phenotypical severe cystic fibrosis. One patient was heterozygous for the 5T allele. In addition, two possibly predisposing CFTR variants (R75Q, 1716G-->A) were detected on four patients, one of these being a compound heterozygous for the missense mutation I336K and R75Q. No other family member (maternal I336K; paternal R75Q; sister I1336K) developed pancreatitis. An intestinal current measurement in rectum samples of patients with a CFTR mutation revealed no CF-typical constellations. CONCLUSIONS: CFTR mutations are associated with recurrent acute, or chronic idiopathic pancreatitis, whereas mutations of the cationic trypsinogen mutation do not appear to be a frequent pathogenetic factor.

Effect of genistein on native epithelial tissue from normal individuals and CF patients and on ion channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes.
Br J Pharmacol. 2000 Aug;130(8):1884-92., [PMID:10952679]
Abstract [show]
The flavonoid genistein has been shown to activate a Cl(-) conductance in various cell types expressing CFTR. We examined if similar effects can be observed when genistein is applied to native ex vivo tissues from human respiratory tract and rectum. We further compared the effects when genistein was applied to oocytes of Xenopus laevis expressing CFTR. In oocytes, both wtCFTR and DeltaF508-CFTR were activated by genistein while both cyclic AMP (K(v)LQT1) and Ca(2+) (SK4) activated K(+) channels were inhibited at high concentrations of genistein. Biopsies from nasal polyps and rectal mucosa were obtained from normal individuals (non-CF) and CF patients and in the presence of amiloride (10 micromol l(-1); mucosal side) the effects of genistein were assessed using a perfused Ussing chamber. In non-CF airway epithelia, genistein (50 micromol l(-1); mucosal side) increased lumen negative I(sc) but had no additional effects on tissues pre-stimulated with IBMX and forskolin (100 micromol l(-1) and 1 micromol l(-1); both sides). In non-CF rectal biopsies, in the presence of amiloride (10 micromol l(-1); mucosal side) and indomethacin (10 micromol l(-1); basolateral side), genistein increased lumen negative I(sc) and enabled cholinergic (carbachol; CCH, 100 micromol l(-1); basolateral side) stimulation of Cl(-) secretion indicating activation of luminal CFTR Cl(-) channels. However, after stimulation with IBMX/forskolin, genistein induced opposite effects and significantly inhibited CCH activated I(sc). In CF airway and intestinal tissues genistein failed to induce Cl(-) secretion. Thus, genistein is able to activate luminal CFTR Cl(-) conductance in non-CF tissues and mutant CFTR in oocytes. However, additional inhibitory effects on basolateral K(+) conductance and missing effects in native CF tissues do not support the use for pharmacological intervention in CF.

Increased circulating levels of plasma ATP in cystic fibrosis patients.
Clin Physiol. 2000 Sep;20(5):348-53., [PMID:10971545]
Abstract [show]
Recent studies have shown that the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter whose mutations are responsible for cystic fibrosis (CF), permeates ATP. However, little information is available concerning extracellular ATP concentrations in CF patients. Thus, the goal of this preliminary study was to determine the circulating levels of plasma ATP in CF patients. Circulating levels of plasma ATP were determined by the luciferin-luciferase assay in both CF patients and healthy volunteer control subjects. The two groups were compared using an analysis of variance. CF genotype and age, which ranged from 7 to 56 years, were also used to compare data by single-blind analysis. With comparable sample numbers, CF patients had statistically higher levels of circulating ATP (34%, P<0.01) when compared by analysis of covariance with the age of the subjects as the cofactor. The CF patients bearing the DeltaF508 genotype had a 54% (n=33, P<0.01) higher plasma ATP concentration compared to controls, while patients bearing other CF genotypes were similar to controls (n=10, P<0.4). We conclude that CF patients have higher circulating levels of ATP when compared to controls. Increased levels of plasma ATP, which is an important autocrine/paracrine hormone in many cell types, may be associated with chronic manifestations of the disease.

Nucleic Acids Res. 2000 Oct 1;28(19):3752-61., 2000-10-01 [PMID:11000267]
Abstract [show]
Scorpion primers can be used to detect PCR products in homogeneous solution. Their structure promotes a unimolecular probing mechanism. We compare their performance with that of the same probe sequence forced to act in a bimolecular manner. The data suggest that Scorpions indeed probe by a unimolecular mechanism which is faster and more efficient than the bimolecular mechanism. This mechanism is not dependent on enzymatic cleavage of the probe. A direct comparison between Scorpions, TaqMan and Molecular Beacons on a Roche LightCycler indicates that Scorpions perform better, particularly under fast cycling conditions. Development of a cystic fibrosis mutation detection assay shows that Scorpion primers are selective enough to detect single base mutations and give good sensitivity in all cases. Simultaneous detection of both normal and mutant alleles in a single reaction is possible by combining two Scorpions in a multiplex reaction. Such favourable properties of Scorpion primers should make the technology ideal in numerous applications.

Abstract [show]
CONTEXT: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common condition in the US general population, yet little is known about its underlying molecular cause. Chronic rhinosinusitis is a consistent feature of the autosomal recessive disorder cystic fibrosis (CF). OBJECTIVE: To determine whether mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene, which is responsible for CF, predispose to CRS. DESIGN: Case-control study conducted from 1996 to 1999 in which the DNA of CRS patients and controls was typed for 16 mutations that account for 85% of CF alleles in the general population. Chronic rhinosinusitis patients with 1 CF mutation were evaluated for a CF diagnosis by sweat chloride testing, nasal potential difference measurement, and DNA analysis for additional mutations. SETTING: Otolaryngology-head and neck clinic of a US teaching hospital. PARTICIPANTS: One hundred forty-seven consecutive adult white patients who met stringent diagnostic criteria for CRS and 123 CRS-free white control volunteers of similar age range, geographic region, and socioeconomic status. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Presence of CF mutations by DNA analysis among CRS patients vs controls. RESULTS: Eleven CRS patients were found to have a CF mutation (DeltaF508, n = 9; G542X, n = 1; and N1303K, n = 1). Diagnostic testing excluded CF in 10 of these patients and led to CF diagnosis in 1. Excluding this patient from the analyses, the proportion of CRS patients who were found to have a CF mutation (7%) was significantly higher than in the control group (n = 2 [2%]; P =.04, both having DeltaF508 mutations). Furthermore, 9 of the 10 CF carriers had the polymorphism M470V, and M470V homozygotes were overrepresented in the remaining 136 CRS patients (P =.03). CONCLUSION: These data indicate that mutations in the gene responsible for CF may be associated with the development of CRS in the general population. JAMA. 2000;284:1814-1819.

CF gene and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator expression in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.
J Am Soc Nephrol. 2000 Dec;11(12):2285-96., [PMID:11095651]
Abstract [show]
Disease-modifying genes might participate in the significant intrafamilial variability of the renal phenotype in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a chloride channel that promotes intracystic fluid secretion, and thus cyst progression, in ADPKD. The hypothesis that mutations of the CF gene, which encodes CFTR, might be associated with a milder renal phenotype in ADPKD was tested. A series of 117 unrelated ADPKD probands and 136 unaffected control subjects were screened for the 12 most common mutations and the frequency of the alleles of the intron 8 polymorphic TN: locus of CF. The prevalence of CF mutations was not significantly different in the ADPKD (1.7%, n = 2) and control (3.7%, n = 5) groups. The CF mutation was DeltaF508 in all cases, except for one control subject (1717-1G A). The frequencies of the 5T, 7T, and 9T intron 8 alleles were also similar in the ADPKD and control groups. Two additional patients with ADPKD and the DeltaF508 mutation were detected in the families of the two probands with CF mutations. Kidney volumes and renal function levels were similar for these four patients with ADPKD and DeltaF508 CFTR (heterozygous for three and homozygous for one) and for control patients with ADPKD collected in the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center database. The absence of a renal protective effect of the homozygous DeltaF508 mutation might be related to the lack of a renal phenotype in CF and the variable, tissue-specific expression of DeltaF508 CFTR. Immunohistochemical analysis of a kidney from the patient with ADPKD who was homozygous for the DeltaF508 mutation substantiated that hypothesis, because CFTR expression was detected in 75% of cysts (compared with <50% in control ADPKD kidneys) and at least partly in the apical membrane area of cyst-lining cells. These data do not exclude a potential protective role of some CFTR mutations in ADPKD but suggest that it might be related to the nature of the mutation and renal expression of the mutated CFTR.

Type I, II, III, IV, and V cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator defects and opportunities for therapy.
Curr Opin Pulm Med. 2000 Nov;6(6):521-9., [PMID:11100963]
Abstract [show]
Recent advances in cellular and molecular biology have furthered the understanding of several genetic diseases, including cystic fibrosis. Mutations that cause cystic fibrosis are now understood in terms of the specific molecular consequences to the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein expression and function. This knowledge has spawned interest in the development of therapies aimed directly at correcting the defective CFTR itself. In this article, we review the molecular defect underlying each recognized class of CFTR mutation and the potential therapies currently under investigation. Opportunities for protein-repair therapy appear to be vast and range from naturally occurring compounds, such as isoflavonoids, to pharmaceuticals already in clinical use, including aminoglycoside antibiotics, butyrate analogues, phosphodiesterase inhibitors, and adenosine nucleotides. Future therapies may resemble designer compounds like benzo[c]quinoliziniums or take the form of small peptide replacements. Given the heterogeneity and progressive nature of cystic fibrosis, however, optimal benefit from protein-repair therapy will most likely require the initiation of combined therapies early in the course of disease to avoid irreparable organ damage.

Molecular screening of the CFTR gene in men with anomalies of the vas deferens: identification of three novel mutations.
Mol Hum Reprod. 2000 Dec;6(12):1063-7., [PMID:11101688]
Abstract [show]
Many studies have shown that congenital absence of the vas deferens (CAVD) is a genital cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-mediated phenotype, with a broad spectrum of abnormalities causing male infertility. The genotype of these patients includes mutations in the CFTR gene, e.g. DeltaDeltaF508, R117H and the T5 allele; all of which are commonly found in CAVD. In this study we have screened the entirety of CFTR gene in 47 males with anomalies of the vas deferens: 37 cases of congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens, three cases of congenital unilateral absence of the vas deferens and seven cases of obstructive azoospermia with hypoplastic vas deferens. Among the 94 chromosomes studied, 65 mutations, of which three are novel (2789+2insA, L1227S, 4428insGA), were identified. The majority of patients (63.8%) had two detectable CFTR gene mutations. Furthermore, high frequencies of the DeltaDeltaF508 mutation (44.7%), the T5 allele (36.2%) and R117H mutation (19.1%) were observed.

Pharmacological treatment of the ion transport defect in cystic fibrosis.
Expert Opin Investig Drugs. 2001 Jan;10(1):1-19., [PMID:11116277]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a lethal monogenetic disease characterised by impaired water and ion transport over epithelia. The lung pathology is fatal and causes death in 95% of CF patients. The genetic basis of the disease is a mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), a cAMP-regulated chloride channel. The most common mutation, DeltaF508, results in a protein that cannot properly be folded in the endoplasmic reticulum, is destroyed and hence does not reach the apical cell membrane. This paper will discuss those pharmacological approaches that are directed at correcting the defect in ion transport. At present, no clinically effective drug is available, although research has defined areas in which progress might be made. These are the following: (1) the drug 4-phenylbutyrate (4PBA) increases the expression of DeltaF508-CFTR in the cell membrane, probably by breaking the association between DeltaF508-CFTR and a chaperone; (2) a number of xanthines, in particular 8-cyclopentyl-1, 3-dipropylxanthine (CPX), are effective in activating CFTR, presumably by direct binding and also possibly by correcting the trafficking defect; (3) the isoflavone genistein can activate both wild-type and mutant CFTR, probably through direct binding to the channel; (4) purinergic agonists (ATP and UTP) can stimulate chloride secretion via a Ca(2+)-dependent chloride channel and in this way compensate for the defect in CFTR, but stable analogues will be required before this type of treatment has clinical significance; (5) treatment with inhaled amiloride may correct the excessive absorption of Na(+) ions and water by airway epithelial cells that appears connected to the defect in CFTR; although clinical tests have not been very successful so far, amiloride analogues with a longer half-life may give better results. The role of CFTR in bicarbonate secretion has not yet been established with certainty, but correction of the defect in bicarbonate secretion may be important in clinical treatment of the disease. Currently, major efforts are directed at developing a pharmacological treatment of the ion transport defect in CF, but much basic research remains to be done, in particular, with regard to the mechanism by which defective CFTR is removed in the endoplasmic reticulum by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, which is a central pathway in protein production and of significance for several other diseases apart from CF.

Update on clinical trials in the treatment of pulmonary disease in patients with cystic fibrosis.
Expert Opin Investig Drugs. 1999 Nov;8(11):1917-1927., [PMID:11139834]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis is a congenital disease resulting from an abnormality of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. A defect in ion transport leads to poor clearance of viscoelastic secretions and a susceptibility to bacterial infection. This initiates a self-perpetuating cycle of infection and inflammation that accounts for the chronic endobronchial sepsis and pulmonary damage observed in patients with cystic fibrosis. Recent studies have attempted to correct the gene defect, enhance the expression and function of the CFTR protein and correct the ion transport defect. Improving the rheological properties of airway secretions, enhancing host defence and controlling inflammation are the other key strategies.

Unilateral renal agenesis associated with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens: phenotypic findings and genetic considerations.
Hum Reprod. 2001 Feb;16(2):282-8., [PMID:11157821]
Abstract [show]
An association between congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD), normal renal anatomy and cystic fibrosis (CF) gene mutations is well established (CF/CBAVD). We postulate that unilateral renal agenesis (URA) and CBAVD (URA/CBAVD) may have a non-CF mutation-mediated genetic basis that leads to abnormal development of the entire mesonephric duct at a very early stage in embryo development (< or =7 weeks). The physical, laboratory and radiographic findings of men with URA/CBAVD (n = 17) and CF/CBAVD (n = 97) were compared; the fertilization and pregnancy rates in the URA/CBAVD population calculated, and the incidence of renal agenesis in immediate family members and offspring of men with URA/CBAVD analysed. No statistical differences could be identified within any of the above comparisons. The fertilization rate for the URA/CBAVD group was 58.2 +/- 26.3%. Eight infants and two fetuses had normal renal anatomy, while one terminated male fetus had bilateral renal and vasal agenesis. Thirty first-order relatives had normal renal units. Anatomical expression of the reproductive ductal derivatives in men with URA/CBAVD and CF/CBAVD was similar, but the phenotypic outcome of the renal portion of the mesonephric duct was different. The potential for transmission of this fatal anomaly reinforces the need for prenatal ultrasounds with all pregnancies involving URA/CBAVD men.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES AND BACKGROUND: The identities of a cystic fibrosis (CF) patient's CFTR mutations can influence therapeutic strategies, but because >800 CFTR mutations exist, cost-effective, comprehensive screening requires a multistage approach. Single-strand conformation polymorphism and heteroduplex analysis (SSCP/HA) can be an important part of mutation detection, but must be calibrated within each laboratory. The sensitivity of a combined commercial-SSCP/HA approach to genotyping in a large, ethnically diverse US center CF population has not been established. STUDY DESIGN: We screened all 27 CFTR exons in 10 human participants who had an unequivocal CF diagnosis including a positive sweat chloride test and at least 1 unknown allele after commercial testing for the 70 most common mutations by SSCP/HA. These participants were compared with 7 participants who had negative sweat tests but at least 1 other CF-like symptom meriting complete genotyping. RESULTS: For the 10 CF participants, we detected 11 of 16 unknown alleles (69%) and all 4 of the known alleles (100%), for an overall rate of 75% inpatients not fully genotyped by conventional 70 mutation screen. For 7 participants with negative sweat tests, we confirmed 1 identified mutation in 14 alleles and detected 3 additional mutations. Mutations detected in both groups included 7 missense mutations (S13F, P67L, G98R, S492F, G970D, L1093P, N1303K) and 9 deletion, frameshift, nonsense or splicing mutations (R75X, G542X, DeltaF508, 451-458Delta8 bp, 5T, 663DeltaT, exon 13 frameshift, 1261+1G-->A and 3272-26A-->G). Three of these mutations were novel (G970D, L1093P, and 451-458Delta8 bp(1)). Thirteen other changes were detected, including the novel changes 1812-3 ins T, 4096-278 ins T, 4096-265 ins TG, and 4096-180 T-->G. CONCLUSION: When combined with the 70 mutation Genzyme test, SSCP/HA analysis allows for detection of >95% of the mutations in an ethnically heterogeneous CF center population. We discuss 5 possible explanations that could account for the few remaining undetected mutations.

Abstract [show]
The spectrum of CFTR mutations in three South African populations is presented. To date. a total of 192 white patients (384 chromosomes) with confirmed CF have been tested. deltaF508 accounts for 76% of the CF chromosomes in this group, with 3272-26A-->G, 394delTT and G542X occurring at the following frequencies: 4, 3.6 and 1.3%, respectively. A further 11 mutations account for 6% of CF chromosomes. A total of 91% of the CF-causing mutations can now be detected in the South African white population. Haplotype analysis suggests a founder effect in South Africans of European origin for the two common CFTR mutations, 3272-26A-->G and 394delTT. The diagnosis of CF has been confirmed in 14 coloured and 12 black CF patients. In the coloured population, both the deltaF508 and 3120 + 1G-->A mutations occur at appreciable frequencies of 43 and 29%, respectively. In the black population, the most common CF-causing mutation, the 3120 + 1G-->A mutation, occurs at an estimated frequency of 46%. Four other mutations have been detected, resulting in the identification of a total of 62.5% of mutations in this population.

Frequency of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutations and 5T allele in patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis.

Abstract [show]
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To assess the frequency of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutations in patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA). DESIGN: Case-control study. All subjects in the study were screened for the presence of 13 mutations in the CFTR gene (R117H, 621 + 1G(-)>T, R334 W, Delta F508, Delta I507, 1717-1G(-)>A, G542X, R553X, G551D, R1162X, 3849 + 10kbC(-)>T, W1282X, and N1303K). Moreover, they were also screened for the presence of the 5T variant in intron 8. SETTING: University hospital and community-based hospital. PATIENTS: Twenty-one white patients with ABPA participated in the study. The presence of CFTR mutations was also investigated in 43 white subjects with allergic asthma who did not show sensitization to Aspergillus fumigatus and in 142 subjects seeking genetic counseling for diseases other than cystic fibrosis (CF). RESULTS: Six patients with ABPA were found to be heterozygous for one CFTR mutation, including Delta F508 (n = 2), G542X (n = 1), R1162X (n = 1), 1717-1G(-)>A (n = 1), and R117H (n = 1). The 5T allele was not detected in ABPA patients. None of the ABPA patients showed sweat chloride concentrations > 60 mEq/L. The frequency of CFTR mutation carriers was significantly higher in ABPA patients (6 of 21 patients; 28.5%) than in control asthmatic subjects (2 of 43 subjects; 4.6%; p = 0.01) and in subjects seeking genetic counseling (6 of 142 subjects; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: These findings indicate that in patients without a clinical diagnosis of CF, CFTR gene mutations could be involved in the development of ABPA, in association with other genetic or environmental factors.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2001 Mar 27;98(7):3940-5., 2001-03-27 [PMID:11274414]
Abstract [show]
Rolling circle amplification (RCA) is a surface-anchored DNA replication reaction that can be exploited to visualize single molecular recognition events. Here we report the use of RCA to visualize target DNA sequences as small as 50 nts in peripheral blood lymphocytes or in stretched DNA fibers. Three unique target sequences within the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene could be detected simultaneously in interphase nuclei, and could be ordered in a linear map in stretched DNA. Allele-discriminating oligonucleotide probes in conjunction with RCA also were used to discriminate wild-type and mutant alleles in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator, p53, BRCA-1, and Gorlin syndrome genes in the nuclei of cultured cells or in DNA fibers. These observations demonstrate that signal amplification by RCA can be coupled to nucleic acid hybridization and multicolor fluorescence imaging to detect single nucleotide changes in DNA within a cytological context or in single DNA molecules. This provides a means for direct physical haplotyping and the analysis of somatic mutations on a cell-by-cell basis.

Genetic, andrological and clinical characteristics of patients with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens.
Int J Androl. 2001 Apr;24(2):73-9., [PMID:11298840]
Abstract [show]
The possibility of retrieving spermatozoa from the epididymis allows patients with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) to father a child by means of assisted reproduction techniques. This has, however, increased the chance of transmitting a mutated allele of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene which increases the risk of generating offspring with cystic fibrosis (CF). Because of the increased heterogeneity of the CFTR locus, the study of a discrete number of mutations, as usually carried out in a diagnostic work-up, is unable to ascertain the presence of a mutation in a relatively high proportion of the patients screened. In an attempt to increase the chance of detecting the presence of CFTR gene abnormalities, 37 patients with CBAVD and one patient with congenital unilateral agenesis of the vas deferens (CUAVD) underwent an enlarged diagnostic protocol, which included screening for the most expected mutations of the CFTR gene in our population, evaluation of the five thymidine (5T) allelic variant, sweat test, respiratory function tests, evaluation of steatocrit, and an accurate evaluation of the history of the patient to search for symptoms commonly found in patients with CF. A single CFTR gene mutation was found in 18 patients (48.6%) with CBAVD and in the patient with CUAVD. The most frequent mutation observed was the Delta F508. Eleven patients (45.8%) had the 5T variant and in five of them it was not associated with any detectable mutation of the CFTR gene. Two female partners were found to be carriers of a mutation, whereas 5 (18.5%) had the 5T variant. As many as 71% of CBVAD patients had the simultaneous presence of at least two signs and/or symptoms suggestive of CF, albeit they were of mild intensity and the patients felt fit and healthy. In conclusion, these results suggested that some patients with CBAVD without CFTR gene mutation or 5T variant, even when their sweat test is negative, may show clinical suspicion of carrying a CFTR gene mutation and therefore are at risk of generating children affected by CF if the partner carries a mutation as well. The screening for mutations and a careful clinical examination may contribute to better identification of patients with CFTR-related CBAVD.

Inflammation in cystic fibrosis airways: relationship to increased bacterial adherence.
Eur Respir J. 2001 Jan;17(1):27-35., [PMID:11307750]
Abstract [show]
It is unclear whether inflammation in the cystic fibrosis (CF) lung relates predominantly to bacterial infection, or occurs as a direct consequence of mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. Interleukin (IL)-8 secretion from CF and non-CF cell lines, and from CF and non-CF human primary nasal epithelial cells incubated with or without Pseudomonas aeruginosa, was measured. Activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) in unstimulated CF and non-CF nasal epithelial cells, cell lines and murine tissues was measured by gel-shift assays. No significant difference in basal IL-8 production or NF-kappaB activation was observed between CF and non-CF primary nasal cells. However, CF cells exhibited a significantly (p<0.01) increased IL-8 secretion following P. aeruginosa stimulation. Equalization of the increased P. aeruginosa adherence observed in CF cells, to non-CF levels, resulted in comparable IL-8 secretion. Further, IL-8 production did not differ with mutations which result in either correctly localized CFTR, or in partial/total mislocalization of this protein. Similar levels of NF-kappaB activation were observed in a number of organs of wildtype and CF mice. Finally, IL-8 secretion and NF-kappaB activity were not consistently increased in CF cell lines. Cos-7 cell transfection with plasmids expressing deltaF508 or G551D mutant CFTR protein resulted in increased activation of a p50-containing NF-kappaB complex, but IL-8 secretion was similar to wild-type cells. The authors conclude that the stimulus produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the predominant inflammatory trigger in their models.

An alpha1-antitrypsin enhancer polymorphism is a genetic modifier of pulmonary outcome in cystic fibrosis.
Eur J Hum Genet. 2001 Apr;9(4):273-8., [PMID:11313771]
Abstract [show]
Lung disease is the direct cause of death in over 90% of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Excess neutrophil elastase is an important determinant of pulmonary disease in CF. alpha1-antitrypsin (AAT), also known as alpha1-proteinase inhibitor (alpha1PI) is a major modulator of elastase activity. We investigated the hypothesis that an enhancer polymorphism in the AAT gene would contribute to pulmonary prognosis in CF. Respiratory function, chest X-ray scores, bacterial colonisation and infective exacerbation were assessed to evaluate pulmonary disease severity in the CF group. Sixteen patients were found to have the 1237A allele, and 108 the more frequent G allele. Contrary to expectation, the patients with the 1237A allele were found to have better indices of pulmonary disease progression than those without, as indicated by less change in X-ray score (1237A: 0.2+/-0.1; 1237G: 1.2+/-0.1; P = 0.002) and fewer infective exacerbations (1237A: 2.8+/-0.6; 1237G: 4.6+/-0.3; P = 0.03) over the preceding 2 years. Also, a higher proportion of the 1237A (25%) than the 1237G (6.5%) were not colonised by Pseudomonas Aeruginosa (P = 0.04). Prospective monitoring of infections for a further 2 years confirmed a lesser propensity to infection in patients with the 1237A allele. These trends were also observed in a tightly matched sub-set of CF genotypes of similar age and sex, thus confirming that these effects were independent of the CF genotype. These results indicate that this AAT enhancer polymorphism is associated with better pulmonary prognosis in CF. Though the number of CF patients with the polymorphism is small, and these data need to be confirmed in larger studies, they suggest that a cautious approach should perhaps be taken to treatment of CF patients with supplemental AAT.

Prevalence of cystic fibrosis mutations in Israeli Jews.
Genet Test. 2001 Spring;5(1):47-52., [PMID:11336401]
Abstract [show]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the screening policies of cystic fibrosis (CF) in the Jewish population. The prevalence of mutations that account for CF in Israel have been defined in the past by determining the frequency of CF mutations in affected individuals. This study is a population-based study and is, therefore, different from previous patient-based studies. We found that the CF mutations D1152H, W1089X, and 405 + IG-->A were present in some ethnic groups in which no CF patients carrying these mutations were reported. These facts necessitate a reevaluation of the screening policy regarding the ethnic groups in Israel. We studied 9,430 healthy Jewish Israeli individuals of 36 countries of origin. The prevalence of CF mutations was 1:19, 1:19, 1:28, and 1:42 for the Ashkenazi, Sephardi, North African, and Eastern Jews, respectively. CF mutations were identified in 374 (4.0%) individuals. These included 173 (46.3%) carriers of the W1282X mutation; 110 (29.4%) found to carry delF508; 23 (6.1%) who carried G542X; 22 (5.9%) who carried 3849 + 10Kb (C-->T; 20 (5.3%) who carried D1152H; 10 (2.7%) who carried N1303K; 11 (2.9%) who carried 405 + IG-->A; 4 (1.1%) who carried W1089X; and one (0.3%) who carried S549R. No carriers were detected for the 1717-1G-->A, G85E, and T360K mutations, which were tested for in 7,383, 1,558, and 41 individuals, respectively.

Gastrointestinal, liver, and pancreatic involvement in adult patients with cystic fibrosis.
Pancreas. 2001 May;22(4):395-9., [PMID:11345141]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The clinical prevalence of cystic fibrosis (CF) in adults continues to rise, with a consequent impact on adult gastroenterology practice. AIM: To characterize the gastrointestinal manifestations of CF in adult patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The clinical records of 89 adult CF patients treated at our institution from 1992 to 1999 were reviewed. Patients were distributed into two groups: group A (39 patients), which consisted of patients who were diagnosed with CF at when they were younger than 14 years old and who survived into adulthood; and group B (50 patients), who were diagnosed with CF at the age of 14 years or older. Data on CF genetic mutations, nutritional state, evidence of pulmonary, gastrointestinal, liver, or pancreatic involvement were collected for each patient. RESULTS: The most prevalent genetic mutation in our series was deltaF508, present in 50 patients (56.2%), 29 of whom belonged to group A and 21 who belonged to group B. In group A, the deltaF508 mutation was associated with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (PI) in 26 of 29 patients (89.6%), whereas in group B it was associated with PI in only four patients (19%). Overall, PI was present in 33 of 39 patients (84.6%) in group A and in eight of 50 patients (16%) in group B. Four patients in group B had experienced previous episodes of acute pancreatitis; two of them had associated PI. Of the 89 patients, 12 (10 in group A) were malnourished. Malnutrition was invariably associated with PI. Hepatic and biliary tree abnormalities were particularly prevalent in patients in group A and was usually associated with PI. Intestinal manifestations were uncommon. CONCLUSIONS: Diagnosis of CF before the age of 14 years is associated with greater gastrointestinal compromise than diagnosis at an older age, particularly with regard to PI. CF carriers of the deltaF508 mutation have an increased risk of developing gastrointestinal manifestations.

Complete and rapid scanning of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (D-HPLC): major implications for genetic counselling.
Hum Genet. 2001 Apr;108(4):290-8., [PMID:11379874]
Abstract [show]
More than 900 mutations and more than 200 different polymorphisms have now been reported in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Ten years after the cloning of the CFTR gene, the complete scanning of the 27 exons to identify known and novel mutations remains challenging. Rapid accurate identification of mutated alleles is important for prenatal diagnosis, for cascade screening in families at risk of cystic fibrosis (CF) and for understanding the correlation between genotype and phenotype. In this study, we report the successful use of denaturing ion-pair reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (D-HPLC) to analyse rapidly the complete coding sequence of the CFTR gene. With 27 pairs of polymerase chain reaction primers, we optimised the temperature conditions required for the analysis of each amplicon and validated thetest conditions on samples from a panel of 1552 CF patients who came from France and other European countries and who had mutations and polymorphisms located in the various melting domains of the gene. D-HPLC identified 415 mutated alleles previously characterised by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and DNA sequencing, plus 74 novel mutations reported here. This new technique for screening DNA for sequence variation was extremely accurate (it identified 100% of the CFTR alleles tested so far) and rapid (the complete CFTR gene could be analysed in less than a week). Our approach should reduce the number of untyped CF alleles in populations and thus decrease the residual risk in couples at risk of CF. This technique may be important not only for CF,but also for many other genes with a high frequency of point mutations at a variety of sites.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: To determine the comparative frequency of 93 CFTR mutations in U.S. individuals with a clinical diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF). METHODS: A total of 5,840 CF chromosomes from Caucasians, Ashkenazi Jews, Hispanics, African Americans, Native Americans, Asians, and individuals of mixed race were analyzed using a pooled ASO hybridization strategy. RESULTS: Sixty-four mutations provided a sensitivity of 70% to 95% in all ethnic groups except Asians, and at least 81% when the U.S. population was considered as a whole. CONCLUSIONS: For population-based carrier screening for CF in the heterogeneous U.S. population, which is characterized by increasing admixture, a pan-ethnic mutation panel of 50 to 70 CFTR mutations may provide a practical test that maximizes sensitivity.

Evidence that systemic gentamicin suppresses premature stop mutations in patients with cystic fibrosis.
Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2001 Jun;163(7):1683-92., [PMID:11401894]
Abstract [show]
Here we report the effects of gentamicin treatment on cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) production and function in CF airway cells and patients with CF with premature stop mutations. Using immunocytochemical and functional [6-methoxy-N- (3-sulfopropyl) quinolinium (SPQ)-based] techniques, ex vivo exposure of airway cells from stop mutation CF patients led to the identification of surface-localized CFTR in a dose-dependent fashion. Next, five patients with CF with stop mutations and five CF control subjects were treated with parenteral gentamicin for 1 wk, and underwent repeated in vivo measures of CFTR function (nasal potential difference [PD] measurements and sweat chloride [Cl(-)] testing). During the treatment period, the number of nasal PD readings in the direction of Cl(-) secretion was increased approximately 3-fold in the stop mutation patient group compared with controls (p < 0.001), and four of five stop mutation patients with CF had at least one reading during gentamicin treatment with a Cl(-) secretory response of more than -5 mV (hyperpolarized). A response of this magnitude was not seen in any of the CF control subjects (p < 0.05). In an independent series of experiments designed to test the ability of repeat nasal PDs to detect wild-type CFTR function, evidence of Cl(-) secretion was seen in 88% of control (non-CF) nasal PDs, and 71% were more than -5 mV hyperpolarized. Together, these results suggest that gentamicin treatment can suppress premature stop mutations in airway cells from patients with CF, and produce small increases in CFTR Cl(-) conductance (as measured by the nasal PD) in vivo.

The use of intraallelic variability for testing neutrality and estimating population growth rate.
Genetics. 2001 Jun;158(2):865-74., [PMID:11404347]
Abstract [show]
To better understand the forces affecting individual alleles, we introduce a method for finding the joint distribution of the frequency of a neutral allele and the extent of variability at closely linked marker loci (the intraallelic variability). We model three types of intraallelic variability: (a) the number of nonrecombinants at a linked biallelic marker locus, (b) the length of a conserved haplotype, and (c) the number of mutations at a linked marker locus. If the population growth rate is known, the joint distribution provides the basis for a test of neutrality by testing whether the observed level of intraallelic variability is consistent with the observed allele frequency. If the population growth rate is unknown but neutrality can be assumed, the joint distribution provides the likelihood of the growth rate and leads to a maximum-likelihood estimate. We apply the method to data from published data sets for four loci in humans. We conclude that the Delta32 allele at CCR5 and a disease-associated allele at MLH1 arose recently and have been subject to strong selection. Alleles at PAH appear to be neutral and we estimate the recent growth rate of the European population to be approximately 0.027 per generation with a support interval of (0.017-0.037). Four of the relatively common alleles at CFTR also appear to be neutral but DeltaF508 appears to be significantly advantageous to heterozygous carriers.

Abstract [show]
Many Cystic Fibrosis (CF) carriers have been detected testing some subjects with chronic pancreatitis for a limited number of mutations. The aim of this study was to find out if some subjects with pancreatitis and a CFTR mutation actually carry another, undetected mutation. We screened for 18 CFTR mutations plus the CFTR intron 8 poly(T) tract length a population of 67 patients suffering from idiopathic either acute, or recurrent acute, or chronic pancreatitis. Three of them were diagnosed as affected by CF. Among the others, a subset of 14 (8 CFTR mutation carriers, 4 5T carriers, and 2 sweat chloride borderliners) was selected and analyzed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis. Six possibly CF-related mutations were detected: L997F and 3878delG were found in two of the subjects already carrying another mutation, S1235R and L997F in one patient carrying the 5T, and L997F and D614G in the two patients with borderline sweat chloride. Among the 14 selected cases a total of 11 patients carried at least one mutation, and three of them were compound heterozygotes. Though it is debatable whether these three individuals can be considered affected by CF, their pancreatitis is possibly a clinical manifestation of some CFTR-related disease. Hum Mutat 18:166, 2001.

Adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette superfamily transporter gene expression in severe male infertility.
Biol Reprod. 2001 Aug;65(2):394-400., [PMID:11466205]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR), multidrug-resistant (MDR)1, and multidrug resistance-associated (MRP) proteins belong to the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily. A compensatory regulation of MDR1 and CFTR gene expression has been observed in CFTR knockout rodent intestine and in an epithelial cell line of human colon, whereas a high homology and similar anion binding site are shared by MRP and CFTR proteins. To provide better insight into the relationship among the expression behavior in vivo of the three genes in human testis, analysis of MDR1 and MRP gene expression in testicular biopsies was performed and related to the presence of CFTR gene mutations in congenital absence of the vas deferens (CAVD: n = 20) and non-CAVD (n = 30) infertile patients with azoospermia or severe oligozoospermia. A CFTR mutation analysis performed in both groups of patients supported the involvement of CFTR gene mutations in CAVD phenotype (85%) and in defective spermatogenesis (19%). Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis of testicular tissue showed a CFTR-independent MDR1 and MRP gene expression in human testis, suggesting that the mechanisms underlying CFTR gene regulation in testis are different from those in intestine. These findings should contribute to the understanding of patterns of in vivo expression of CFTR, MDR1, and MRP genes in CFTR-related infertility.

Salt-independent abnormality of antimicrobial activity in cystic fibrosis airway surface fluid.
Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol. 2001 Jul;25(1):21-5., [PMID:11472971]
Abstract [show]
The link between the genetic defect in cystic fibrosis (CF) and the recently described breach in pulmonary host defense has focused on the role of salt and water metabolism in the airways. Using a human bronchial xenograft model we demonstrate a salt-independent abnormality in bacterial killing in CF airway surface fluid (ASF). Biochemical characterization implicates the absence or dysfunction of a molecule critical to the constitution of normal bacterial killing. Our study suggests that CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) deficiency causes a primary abnormality in the composition of ASF that leads to a salt-independent defect in host defense. Importantly, this defect is corrected by adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of CFTR.

Abstract [show]
We analyzed 97 unrelated Mexican cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and their first-degree relatives to study the association of XV2C/TaqI/KM19/PstI haplotypes with CF mutations in this population. Haplotype phases could be established in 148 CF and 110 normal chromosomes, and haplotype distributions of normal and CF chromosomes differed significantly (P < 0.001). DeltaF508 and G542X mutations accounted for 56% of CF chromosomes and were found to be associated with haplotype B in 97.2% and 72.7% of chromosomes, respectively. The haplotype distribution of CF chromosomes carrying other rare and unknown mutations was similar to that of normal chromosomes (P > 0.05), haplotypes A and C being the most frequent. This is in accordance with the extensive heterogeneity and the spectrum of mutations reported in Mexican CF patients. We also report the haplotype distribution of all informative chromosomes bearing rare mutations; some were found to be associated with previously reported haplotypes, whereas others were found on different haplotypes. Recombination or recurrence of mutations may explain these different associations, although other intragenic markers must be used to better understand the origin and dispersion of CF mutations in our country. XK haplotype analysis allowed carrier detection among sibs in 24.3% of families, showing that this method may be useful for carrier detection in populations with high allelic heterogeneity.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from mutations in the cystic fibrosis trans-membrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, is the most common lethal genetic illness in the Caucasian population. Gene transfer to airway epithelium, using adenoviruses containing normal CFTR cDNA, leads to transient production of CFTR mRNA and, in some studies, to correction of the airway epithelial ion transport defect caused by dysfunctional CFTR. Inflammatory responses to the adenoviral vector have been reported, particularly at high viral titers. We evaluated the effects of adenovirus-mediated CFTR gene transfer to airway epithelium in 36 subjects with CF (34 individuals, 2 of whom received two separate doses of vector), 20 by lobar instillation and 16 by aerosol administration. Doses ranged from 8 x 10(6) to 2.5 x 10(10) infective units (IU), in 0.5-log increments. After lobar administration of low doses there were occasional reports of cough, low-grade temperature, and myalgias. At the highest lobar dose (2.5 x 10(9) IU) two of three patients had transient myalgias, fever, and increased sputum production with obvious infiltrates on CT scan. After aerosol administration there were no significant systemic symptoms until the 2.5 x 10(10) IU dose, when both patients experienced myalgias and fever that resolved within 24 hr. There were no infiltrates seen on chest CT scans in any of the patients in the aerosol administration group. There were no consistent changes in pulmonary function tests or any significant rise in serum IgG or neutralizing antibodies in patients from either group. Serum, sputum, and nasal cytokines, measured before and after vector administration, showed no correlation with adenoviral dose. Gene transfer to lung cells was inefficient and expression was transient. Cells infected with the vector included mononuclear inflammatory cells as well as cuboidal and columnar epithelial cells. In summary, we found no consistent immune response, no evidence of viral shedding, and no consistent change in pulmonary function in response to adenovirus-mediated CFTR gene transfer. At higher doses there was a mild, nonspecific inflammatory response, as evidenced by fevers and myalgias. Overall, vector administration was tolerated but transfer of CFTR cDNA was inefficient and transgene expression was transient for the doses and method of administration used here.

Abstract [show]
Compound heterozygotes for a severe cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutation and the R117H or R117C mutation (R117H/C) have clinical presentations that vary from classic cystic fibrosis (CF) to an incidental genetic finding. The aim of this study was to assess the influence of the intron-8 polythvmidine sequence (IVS8) on the relationship between genotype and phenotype of individuals with R117H/C. All individuals with R117H/C known to CF clinics in Australia and New Zealand were retrospectively studied by collecting information on genotype, age, pancreatic status, sweat electrolytes, sputum microbiology and pulmonary function. Forty-one individuals (39 with R117H and two with R117C), 16 on an IVS8-5T background and 25 on an IVS8-7T background were identified. Twelve individuals presented clinically, four were siblings of known R117H/C compound heterozygotes and 25 were detected by newborn screening. Eleven of 14 of the IVS8-5T group (78%) with sweat chloride results available had sweat CI > 60 mmol x L(-1) compared to 5 (20%) of the R117H/7T group (Chi-squared=10.4, p=0.001). Two were pancreatic insufficient, both IVS8-5T. Two IVS8-5T individuals have recently died (aged 43 and 19) and of the 14 surviving IVS8-5T group, 11 (79%) are symptomatic compared to eight (32%) of the IVS8-7T individuals (Chi-squared=6.1, p=0.01). In conclusion, most individuals with R117H/C on a IVS8-5T background have an elevated sweat chloride and clinical cystic fibrosis, which in some cases is severe. Most individuals with R117H/C on an IVS8-7T background do not have clinical cystic fibrosis but should be followed for the development of clinical disease.

Silicon-based biosensors for rapid detection of protein or nucleic acid targets.
Clin Chem. 2001 Oct;47(10):1894-900., [PMID:11568116]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: We developed a silicon-based biosensor that generates visual, qualitative results or quantitative results for the detection of protein or nucleic acid targets in a multiplex format. METHODS: Capture probes were immobilized either passively or covalently on the optically coated surface of the biosensor. Intermolecular interactions of the immobilized capture probe with specific target molecules were transduced into a molecular thin film. Thin films were generated by enzyme-catalyzed deposition in the vicinity of the surface-bound target. The increased thickness on the surface changed the apparent color of the biosensor by altering the interference pattern of reflected light. RESULTS: Cytokine detection was achieved in a 40-min multiplex assay. Detection limits were 4 ng/L for interleukin (IL)-6, 31 ng/L for IL1-beta, and 437 ng/L for interferon-gamma. In multianalyte experiments, cytokines were specifically detected with signal-to-noise ratios ranging from 15 to 80. With a modified optical surface, specificity was also demonstrated in a nucleic acid array with unambiguous discrimination of single-base changes in a 15-min assay. For homozygous wild-type and homozygous mutant samples, signal-to-noise ratios of approximately 100 were observed. Heterozygous samples yielded approximately equivalent signals for wild-type and mutant capture probes. CONCLUSIONS: The thin-film biosensor allows rapid, sensitive, and specific detection of protein or nucleic acid targets in an array format with results read visually or quantified with a charge-coupled device camera. This biosensor is suited for multianalyte detection in clinical diagnostic assays.

Mutations of the cystic fibrosis gene in patients with chronic pancreatitis.
Am J Gastroenterol. 2001 Sep;96(9):2657-61., [PMID:11569691]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: Several studies have reported an increased frequency of cystic fibrosis gene mutations in idiopathic but not in alcoholic chronic pancreatitis. The impact of cystic fibrosis gene mutations on the long-term course of chronic pancreatitis has not been analyzed. The aim of our study was to determine the frequency of cystic fibrosis gene mutations in patients with chronic pancreatitis with long-term follow-up and to see whether patients with mutations have a clinically different natural course compared to those without mutations. METHODS: Eighty two patients with chronic pancreatitis and 11 patients with recurrent acute pancreatitis of our well defined pancreatitis cohort were screened for the 31 most common cystic fibrosis gene mutations. The impact of cystic fibrosis gene mutations on the long-term course of chronic pancreatitis was assessed. RESULTS: A cystic fibrosis gene mutation was detected in five of 49 patients with alcoholic chronic pancreatitis (10.2%; 2.3 times the expected frequency) and in three of 14 patients with idiopathic-juvenile chronic pancreatitis (21.4%; 4.8 times the expected frequency). No mutations were found in the remaining patients with chronic pancreatitis of rare causes, hereditary pancreatitis, and recurrent acute pancreatitis. The frequency of pancreatic calcifications was significantly higher in patients with alcoholic chronic pancreatitis without mutations. This result was not confirmed in patients with idiopathic-juvenile chronic pancreatitis. The duration of pain and the frequency of exocrine and endocrine insufficiency was comparable in both subgroups irrespective of the mutation status. CONCLUSION: Our data indicate a significantly increased frequency of cystic fibrosis gene mutations both in patients with alcoholic and idiopathic-juvenile chronic pancreatitis. The natural course was similar in patients with mutations compared to those without mutations.

Cystic fibrosis phenotype evaluation and paternity outcome in 50 males with congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens.
Hum Reprod. 2001 Oct;16(10):2093-7., [PMID:11574497]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Most infertile males with congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens (CBAVD) carry mutations on the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene and may express mild cystic fibrosis (CF) symptoms. Barriers to paternity for these men can now be overcome by assisted reproduction. Our aims were to investigate the CF-related phenotype and clinical outcome for 50 patients with CBAVD seen at a CF adult centre between 1992 and 1999. METHODS AND RESULTS: The investigation of the patients included screening for 22 CF mutations and identification of the poly-T variant of intron 8, sweat testing, clinical investigation for CF-related extra-genital manifestations, and genetic counselling. CFTR mutations were detected on 56 alleles of the 50 patients. A total of 15 (30%) was compound heterozygote and 26 (52%) heterozygote. In all, 38% of the patients had a positive sweat test. Four patients were diagnosed with typical CF not detected previously. Twenty-one patients became fathers following ICSI (eight cases), artificial insemination by donor or IVF with sperm donor (seven cases) or through adoption (six cases). A mail survey allowed the identification of CF-related clinical symptoms. Information on the occurrence of CF-related symptoms was obtained for 58.5% of patients: in the absence of initial symptoms, no new clinical signs were reported. CONCLUSION: Patients diagnosed with CBAVD need genetic counselling before assisted reproduction. Even when no wish for paternity is expressed, CF gene screening should be associated with at least a sweat test and clinical evaluation because of possible mild forms of CF disease. Medical follow-up did not reveal any new symptoms.

Analysis of exocrine pancreatic function in cystic fibrosis: one mild CFTR mutation does not exclude pancreatic insufficiency.
Eur J Clin Invest. 2001 Sep;31(9):796-801., [PMID:11589722]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common cause of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency in childhood. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the correlation between genotype and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency in CF patients. The special emphasis was put on the analysis of mild CFTR mutations. DESIGN: The study comprised 394 CF patients and 105 healthy subjects (HS). Elastase-1 concentrations were measured in all subjects. RESULTS: Severe pancreatic insufficiency was associated with the presence of two CFTR gene mutations (DeltaF508, N1303K, CFTR dele 2,3 (21kb), G542X, 1717-1G-A, R533X, W1282X, 621GT, 2183AAG, R560T, 2184insA and DeltaI507, G551D, 895T) and mild insufficiency with the presence of at least one mutation (R117H, 3171insC, A155P2, 138insL, 296 + 1G-A, E92GK, E217G, 2789 + 5G-A. 3849 + 1kbC-T/3849 + 1kbC-T) genotype resulted in high elastase-1-values. However, in case of patients with genotype DeltaF508/3849 + 10kbC-T, 1717-1GA/3849 + 10kbC-T as well as with DeltaF508/R334W, both high and low elastase-1 concentrations were found. Low E1 values were found in a patient with DeltaF508/R347P genotype. CONCLUSION: Patients who carry two 'severe' mutations develop pancreatic insufficiency, whereas those who carry at least one 'mild' usually remain pancreatic sufficient. However, the presence of one mild mutation does not exclude pancreatic insufficiency.

Improved detection of CFTR mutations in Southern California Hispanic CF patients.
Hum Mutat. 2001 Oct;18(4):296-307., [PMID:11668613]
Abstract [show]
Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene cause cystic fibrosis (CF), a common autosomal recessive disease in Caucasians. The broad mutation spectrum varies among different patient groups. Current molecular diagnoses are designed to detect 80-97% of CF chromosomes in Caucasians and Ashkenazi Jews but have a much lower detection rate in Hispanic CF patients. Grebe et al. [1994] reported a 58% detection rate in Hispanic patients. Since then, there has been no large-scale, complete mutational analysis of Hispanic CF patients. In this study, the mutations in 62 Hispanic patients from southern California were investigated. The entire coding and flanking intronic regions of the CFTR gene were analyzed by temporal temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TTGE) followed by sequencing to identify the mutations. Eleven novel mutations were discovered in this patient group: 3876delA, 406-1G>A, 935delA, 663delT, 3271delGG, 2105-2117del13insAGAAA, 3199del6, Q179K, 2108delA, 3171delC, and 3500-2A>T. Among the mutations, seven were out-of-frame insertions and deletions that result in truncated proteins, two were splice-site mutations, one was an in-frame 6 bp deletion, and one was a missense mutation that involved the non-conservative change of glutamine-179 to lysine. All patients presented severe classical clinical course with pancreatic insufficiency and poor growth, consistent with the nature of truncation mutation. The results indicate that TTGE screening following the analysis of recurrent mutations will substantially improve the mutation detection rate for Hispanic CF patients from southern California.

Human genetics: lessons from Quebec populations.
Annu Rev Genomics Hum Genet. 2001;2:69-101., [PMID:11701644]
Abstract [show]
The population of Quebec, Canada (7.3 million) contains approximately 6 million French Canadians; they are the descendants of approximately 8500 permanent French settlers who colonized Nouvelle France between 1608 and 1759. Their well-documented settlements, internal migrations, and natural increase over four centuries in relative isolation (geographic, linguistic, etc.) contain important evidence of social transmission of demographic behavior that contributed to effective family size and population structure. This history is reflected in at least 22 Mendelian diseases, occurring at unusually high prevalence in its subpopulations. Immigration of non-French persons during the past 250 years has given the Quebec population further inhomogeneity, which is apparent in allelic diversity at various loci. The histories of Quebec's subpopulations are, to a great extent, the histories of their alleles. Rare pathogenic alleles with high penetrance and associated haplotypes at 10 loci (CFTR, FAH, HBB, HEXA, LDLR, LPL, PAH, PABP2, PDDR, and SACS) are expressed in probands with cystic fibrosis, tyrosinemia, beta-thalassemia, Tay-Sachs, familial hypercholesterolemia, hyperchylomicronemia, PKU, oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy, pseudo vitamin D deficiency rickets, and spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay, respectively) reveal the interpopulation and intrapopulation genetic diversity of Quebec. Inbreeding does not explain the clustering and prevalence of these genetic diseases; genealogical reconstructions buttressed by molecular evidence point to founder effects and genetic drift in multiple instances. Genealogical estimates of historical meioses and analysis of linkage disequilibrium show that sectors of this young population are suitable for linkage disequilibrium mapping of rare alleles. How the population benefits from what is being learned about its structure and how its uniqueness could facilitate construction of a genomic map of linkage disequilibrium are discussed.

Genetic risk factors in infertile men with severe oligozoospermia and azoospermia.
Hum Reprod. 2002 Jan;17(1):13-6., [PMID:11756355]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Male infertility due to severe oligozoospermia and azoospermia has been associated with a number of genetic risk factors. METHODS: In this study 150 men from couples requesting ICSI were investigated for genetic abnormalities, such as constitutive chromosome abnormalities, microdeletions of the Y chromosome (AZF region) and mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. RESULTS: Genetic analysis identified 16/150 (10.6%) abnormal karyotypes, 8/150 (5.3%) AZFc deletions and 14/150 (9.3%) CFTR gene mutations. An abnormal karyotype was found both in men with oligozoospermia and azoospermia: 9 men had a sex-chromosomal aneuploidy, 6 translocations were identified and one marker chromosome was found. Y chromosomal microdeletions were mainly associated with male infertility, due to testicular insufficiency. All deletions identified comprised the AZFc region, containing the Deleted in Azoospermia (DAZ) gene. CFTR gene mutations were commonly seen in men with congenital absence of the vas deferens, but also in 16% of men with azoospermia without any apparent abnormality of the vas deferens. CONCLUSIONS: A genetic abnormality was identified in 36/150 (24%) men with extreme oligozoospermia and azoospermia. Application of ICSI in these couples can result in offspring with an enhanced risk of unbalanced chromosome complement, male infertility due to the transmission of a Y-chromosomal microdeletion, and cystic fibrosis if both partners are CFTR gene mutation carriers. Genetic testing and counselling is clearly indicated for these couples before ICSI is considered.

ATB(0)/SLC1A5 gene. Fine localisation and exclusion of association with the intestinal phenotype of cystic fibrosis.
Eur J Hum Genet. 2001 Nov;9(11):860-6., [PMID:11781704]
Abstract [show]
The Na+-dependent amino acid transporter named ATB(0) was previously found to be located in 19q13.3 by fluorescence in situ hybridisation. Genetic heterogeneity in the 19q13.2-13.4 region, syntenic to the Cystic Fibrosis Modulator Locus 1 (CFM1) in mouse, seemed to be associated to the intestinal phenotypic variation of cystic fibrosis (CF). We performed fine chromosomal mapping of ATB(0) on radiation hybrid (RH) panels G3 and TNG. Based on the most accurate location results from TNG-RH panel, mapping analysis evidenced that ATB(0) is localised between STS SHGC-13875 (D19S995) and STS SHGC-6138 in 19q13.3, that corresponds with the immediately telomeric/distal segment of the strongest linkage region within the human CFM1 (hCFM1) syntenic region. Regarding to the genomic structure and exon organisation, our results show that the ATB(0) gene is organised into eight exons. The knowledge of the genomic structure allowed us to perform an exhaustive mutational analysis of the gene. Evaluation of the possible implication of ATB(0) in the intestinal phenotype of CF was performed on the basis of the functional characteristics of the encoded protein, its apparent relevance to meconium ileus (MI) and position in relation to the hCFM1 syntenic region. We have analysed this gene in samples from CF patients with and without MI. Several sequence variations in the ATB(0) gene were identified, although none of them seemed to be related to the intestinal phenotype of CF. Even though no particular allele or haplotype in ATB(0) appears to be associated to CF-MI disease, new SNPs identified should be useful in segregation and linkage disequilibrium analyses in families affected by other disorders caused by the impairment of neutral amino acid transport.

Correction of CFTR malfunction and stimulation of Ca-activated Cl channels restore HCO3- secretion in cystic fibrosis bile ductular cells.
Hepatology. 2002 Jan;35(1):95-104., [PMID:11786964]
Abstract [show]
In view of the occurrence of hepatobiliary disorders in cystic fibrosis (CF) this study addresses the role of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and of Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) channels in promoting HCO3- secretion in bile ductular cells. Human cholangiocytes were isolated from control livers and from 1 patient with CF (DeltaF508/G542X mutations). Single channel and whole cell currents were analyzed by patch clamp techniques, and HCO3- secretion was determined by fluorometric analysis of the rate of recovery of intracellular pH following alkaline loading. In control cholangiocytes, both cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and protein kinase A (PKA) catalytic subunit, activated CFTR Cl(-) channels that exhibited a nonrectifying conductance of 8 pS and appeared in clusters. Activation of Cl(-) current by cAMP was associated with an increase in the rate of HCO3- secretion. The basal rate of HCO3- secretion was lower in CF than in control cholangiocytes. In both control and CF cholangiocytes, raising intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations with ionomycin led to a parallel activation of Cl(-) current and HCO3- secretion. Consistent with reports that premature stop codon mutations (class I; e.g., G542X) can be read over by treatment with aminoglycoside antibiotics, exposure of CF cholangiocytes to gentamicin restored activation by cAMP of Cl(-) current and HCO3- secretion. The observation that activation of Ca(2+)-dependent Cl(-) channels can substitute for cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in supporting HCO3- secretion and the efficacy of gentamicin in restoring CFTR function and HCO3- secretion in class I mutations are of potential clinical interest.

Abstract [show]
In Italy, Cystic fibrosis (CF) mutation frequency differences have been observed in different regions. In the northeastern Veneto and Trentino Alto Adige regions, a complete cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene screening in CF patients detected through a newborn screening program has identified about 90% of the mutations. In these two regions, the current detection rate using a CF screening panel containing the 16 most common mutations is 86.6%. CF mutations in some other Italian regions have not been so thoroughly analysed. Available data indicate that a more general national screening panel comprising 31 mutations may detect about 75% of all CF mutations in Italy.

Association between genetically determined pancreatic status and lung disease in adult cystic fibrosis patients.
Chest. 2002 Jan;121(1):73-80., [PMID:11796434]
Abstract [show]
STUDY OBJECTIVES: The association between genotype and phenotype in cystic fibrosis (CF) has been clearly established for pancreatic status, but not for lung disease. DESIGN: Retrospective study. SETTING: A respiratory unit of a teaching hospital. PATIENTS: We studied 51 adult CF patients for whom current data and genotype were available. Thirty-seven patients carried two severe mutations associated with pancreatic insufficiency phenotype (group S). Fourteen patients carried at least one mild (and dominant) mutation associated with pancreatic sufficiency phenotype (group M). MEASUREMENTS: We compared the course of the disease between the two groups, looking for a genotype/phenotype association for lung disease. RESULTS: The mean age of the population was 30 years. Patients with two severe mutations presented more severe disease with earlier onset (1.7 years vs 7.9 years, p = 0.0001). They presented with a more severe respiratory impairment, with a lower mean FEV(1) (29% of predictive value vs 58% of predictive value, p < 0.001); a higher Pseudomonas colonization rate (97% vs 57%, p < 0.01); a more frequent end-stage respiratory insufficiency, defined by a FEV(1) < 30% (73% vs 29%, p < 0.05); and a more marked yearly decline of FEV(1) (3% vs 1.4%, p < 0.001). By multivariate logistic regression analysis, carrying two severe mutations was the only independent predictor of a terminal respiratory insufficiency (relative risk, 6.75; 95% confidence interval, 1.79 to 26.50; p = 0.003). CONCLUSION: This study suggests that pulmonary disease appears to be associated with the severity of CF transmembrane regulator mutations.

Activation of ion secretion via proteinase-activated receptor-2 in human colon.
Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol. 2002 Feb;282(2):G200-10., [PMID:11804840]
Abstract [show]
Proteinase-activated receptor (PAR) type 2 (PAR-2) has been shown to mediate ion secretion in cultured epithelial cells and rat jejunum. With the use of a microUssing chamber, we demonstrate the role of PAR-2 for ion transport in native human colonic mucosa obtained from 30 normal individuals and 11 cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Trypsin induced Cl(-) secretion when added to the basolateral but not luminal side of normal epithelia. Activation of Cl(-) secretion by trypsin was inhibited by indomethacin and was further increased by cAMP in normal tissues but was not present in CF colon, indicating the requirement of luminal CF transmembrane conductance regulator. Effects of trypsin were largely reduced by low Cl(-), by basolateral bumetanide, and in the presence of barium or clotrimazole, but not by tetrodotoxin. Furthermore, trypsin-induced secretion was inhibited by the Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor cyclopiazonic acid and in low-Ca(2+) buffer. The effects of trypsin were almost abolished by trypsin inhibitor. Thrombin, an activator of PAR types 1, 3, and 4, had no effects on equivalent short-circuit currents. The presence of PAR-2 in human colon epithelium was confirmed by RT-PCR and additional experiments with PAR-2-activating peptide. PAR-2-mediated intestinal electrolyte secretion by release of mast cell tryptase and potentiation of PAR-2 expression by tumor necrosis factor-alpha may contribute to the hypersecretion observed in inflammatory processes such as chronic inflammatory bowel disease.

Identification of a new cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator mutation in a severely affected patient.

Abstract [show]
By using a combination of multiplex polymerase chain reaction and allele-specific labelled probes, the oligo-ligation assay is designed to detect known cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator mutations. This study shows that this assay may also be useful to detect new mutations. The second child of a family of Bosnic origin showed all the symptoms of intestinal and pulmonary manifestations of cystic fibrosis. No signal could be obtained for the allele-specific probe 1898+1G>A. This could be explained by a nearby localized sequence change that prevented polymerase chain reaction primers or oligonucleotide probes from binding to the target sequence. Indeed, sequence analysis revealed a new 1894G>T exchange (Glu587Stop). Both parents and the healthy brother carried this mutation. Thus, the index patient was homozygous for 1894G>T, which was inherited from both parents.

Abstract [show]
A study was performed on the delayed diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) in infants who had false-negative results in a neonatal screening programme. The genetic and clinical features of false-negative infants in this screening programme were assessed together with the efficiency of the screening procedure in the Lombardia region. In total, 774,687 newborns were screened using a two-step immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) (in the years 1990-1992), IRT/IRT + delF508 (1993-1998) or IRT/IRT + polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and oligonucleotide ligation assay (OLA) protocol (1998-1999). Out of 196 CF children born in the 10 y period 15 were false negative on screening (7.6%) and molecular analysis showed a high variability in the genotypes. The cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene mutations identified were delF508, D1152H, R1066C, R334W, G542X, N1303K, F1052V, A120T, 3849 + 10kbC --> T, 2789 + 5G --> A, 5T-12TG and the novel mutation D110E. In three patients no mutation was identified after denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of the majority of CFTR gene exons. Conclusion: The clinical phenotypes of CF children diagnosed by their symptoms at different ages were very mild. None of them presented with a severe lung disease. The majority of them did not seem to have been damaged by the delayed diagnosis. The combination of IRT assay plus genotype analysis (1998-1999) appears to be a more reliable method of detecting CF than IRT measurement alone or combined with only the delF508 mutation.

Abstract [show]
The relationship between fitness and genotype in children with cystic fibrosis (CF) and at least one copy of the DeltaF508 mutation was examined. Genotype was classified according to the second CF mutation. Fitness was measured by peak aerobic capacity (using a modified Bruce protocol during treadmill exercise) and anaerobic power (using the Wingate test on a cycle ergometer). The class of cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator proteins (CFTR) mutation was statistically related with aerobic capacity, peak anaerobic power, body mass index, lung function (forced expiratory volume in one second), and disease severity as measured by the Shwachman score. Patients with mutations causing defective CFTR production (Class I) or processing (Class II) had a significantly lower peak aerobic capacity (28.6 +/- 4.2 ml/kg/min and 31.7 +/- 5.4 ml/kg/min, respectively) than those with a mutation conferring defective regulation of CFTR (Class III) (43.9 +/- 6.4 ml/kg/min). The peak anaerobic power in subjects with mutations inducing decreased CFTR conduction (Class IV) or CFTR mRNA (Class V), were significantly higher (11.4 +/- 1.7 and 11.6 +/- 1.5 watts/kg, respectively) than children with Class I (9.7 +/- 1.4 watts/kg), Class II (9.8 +/- 1.4 watts/kg), or Class III (10.5 +/- 1.8 watts/kg) mutations. There were no statistically significant differences in the lung function of patients with the different mutations. These results indicate a relationship between CF genotype and some measures of fitness, the mechanisms of which remain to be determined.

Abstract [show]
Denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) using ion-pairing reverse phase chromatography (IPRPC) columns is a technique for the screening of gene mutations. In order to evaluate the potential utility of this assay method in a clinical laboratory setting, we subjected the PCR products of 73 CF patients known to bear CFTR mutations to this analytic technique. We used thermal denaturation profile parameters specified by the MELT program tool, made available by Stanford University. Using this strategy, we determined an initial analytic sensitivity of 90.4% for any of 73 known CFTR mutations. Most of the mutations not detected by DHPLC under these conditions are alpha-substitutions. This information may eventually help to improve the MELT algorithm. Increasing column denaturation temperatures for one or two degrees above those recommended by the MELT program allowed 100% detection of CFTR mutations tested. By comparing DHPLC methodology used in this study with the recently reported study based on Wavemaker 3.4.4 software (Transgenomic, Omaha, NE) [Le Marechal et al., 2001) and with previous SSCP analysis of CFTR mutations [Ravnik-Glavac et al., 1994] we emphasized differences and similarities in order to refine the DHPLC system and discuss the relationship to the alternative approaches. We conclude that the DHPLC method, under optimized conditions, is highly accurate, rapid, and efficient in detecting mutations in the CFTR gene and may find high utility in screening individuals for CFTR mutations.

Eur J Hum Genet. 2002 Feb;10(2):100-6., [PMID:11938439]
Abstract [show]
In the last 5 years, mutations in three genes, the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, the cationic trypsinogen (PRSS1) gene, and the pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor (PSTI) gene, have been found to be associated with chronic pancreatitis (CP). In this study, using established mutation screening methods, we systematically analysed the entire coding sequences and all exon/intron junctions of the three genes in 39 patients with idiopathic CP (ICP), with a view to evaluating the relative contribution of each gene to the aetiology of the disease. Our results demonstrate that, firstly, 'gain-of-function' mutations in the PRSS1 gene may occasionally be found in an obvious ICP subject. Secondly, presumably 'loss-of-function' mutations in the PSTI gene appear to be frequent, with a detection rate of at least 10% in ICP and, finally, abnormal CFTR alleles are common: at least 20% of patients carried one of the most common CFTR mutations, and about 10% of patients were compound heterozygotes, having at least one 'mild' allele. Thus, in total, about 30% of ICP patients carried at least one abnormal allele in one of the three genes, and this is the most conservative estimate. Moreover, a trans-heterozygous state with sequence variations in the PSTI/CFTR genes was found in three patients. However, an association between the 5T allele in intron 8 of the CFTR gene and ICP remains unproven.

Pharmacogenomics. 2002 Jan;3(1):75-87., [PMID:11966405]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common lethal recessive genetic disease affecting children in Europe and the US. CF is a multiorgan disease and may present a variety of clinical symptoms, like chronic obstructive lung disease, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (PI) and elevated sweat chloride concentration. CF mutations have also been found in other related clinical diseases such as congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD), disseminated bronchiectasis and chronic pancreatitis. These clinical overlaps pose etiopathogenetic, diagnostic and therapeutic questions. Despite stunning advances in genomic technologies and drug discovery, drug therapy often improves disease symptoms but does not cure the disease. One of the main causes of this failure in CF cure may be attributable to genetic variability and to the scarce knowledge of CF biochemistry. Therefore, knowing the genotype of a patient might help improve drug efficacy, reduce toxicity and suggests innovative genomic-based therapy approaches.

Clin Exp Allergy. 2002 May;32(5):756-61., [PMID:11994102]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Previous work suggests that cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutations may be implicated in the aetiology of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergilosis (ABPA). OBJECTIVE: To compare the frequency of CF gene mutations in asthmatics with ABPA of varying severity with asthmatics who were skin prick test (SPT)-positive to Aspergillus fumigatus (Af) without evidence of ABPA and asthmatics SPT-negative to Af. METHODS: Thirty-one Caucasian patients with ABPA were identified, together with asthmatics SPT positive to Af without evidence of ABPA (n = 23) and SPT negative to Af (n = 28). Genomic DNA was tested for 16 CF mutations accounting for approximately 85% of CF alleles in Caucasian New Zealanders. RESULTS: Four (12.9%) ABPA patients were found to be carriers of a CF mutation (DeltaF508 n = 3, R117H n = 1), one (4.3%) asthmatic SPT positive to Af without ABPA (DeltaF508), and one (3.6%) asthmatic SPT negative to Af (R117H). All patients with a CF mutation had normal sweat chloride (< 40 mM). There was no significant difference between the frequency of CF mutations in the ABPA patients and asthmatics without ABPA. However, the frequency of CF mutations in the ABPA patients was significantly different (P = 0.0125) to the expected carrier rate in the general population. CONCLUSION: These results lend further support to a possible link between CF mutations and ABPA.

Complete screening of the CFTR gene in Argentine cystic fibrosis patients.
Clin Genet. 2002 Mar;61(3):207-13., [PMID:12000363]
Abstract [show]
In order to establish the nature and the distribution of mutations causing cystic fibrosis (CF) in 220 unrelated Argentine families, the present authors conducted an extensive molecular analysis of the CF transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene. First, a direct mutation analysis of 13 common mutations was done, enabling the detection of 319 out of 440 CF alleles (72.52%). Then an exhaustive screening of the entire coding region and the adjacent sequences of the CFTR gene was performed in all patients carrying at least one unidentified CF allele using the multiplex heteroduplex analysis assay followed by direct DNA sequencing. Thirty-nine different CF mutations, including five previously undescribed mutations (i.e. L6V, Y362X, 1353insT, 2594delGT and 2686insT) and two novel polymorphisms (i.e. 1170G/C and 3315A/C) were identified. As a result, the overall detection rate increased by up to 83.45%. Besides DeltaF508, only five mutations showed frequencies higher than 1%. In addition, a total of 49% of the mutations were rare because they were found in only one CF family. This wide spectrum of CF mutations is in agreement with the heterogeneous ethnic origin of the Argentine population. The data obtained here may have important consequences for the development of adequate strategies for the molecular diagnosis of CF in Argentina.

Cystic fibrosis: a worldwide analysis of CFTR mutations--correlation with incidence data and application to screening.
Hum Mutat. 2002 Jun;19(6):575-606., [PMID:12007216]
Abstract [show]
Although there have been numerous reports from around the world of mutations in the gene of chromosome 7 known as CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator), little attention has been given to integrating these mutant alleles into a global understanding of the population molecular genetics associated with cystic fibrosis (CF). We determined the distribution of CFTR mutations in as many regions throughout the world as possible in an effort designed to: 1) increase our understanding of ancestry-genotype relationships, 2) compare mutational arrays with disease incidence, and 3) gain insight for decisions regarding screening program enhancement through CFTR multi-mutational analyses. Information on all mutations that have been published since the identification and cloning of the CFTR gene's most common allele, DeltaF508 (or F508del), was reviewed and integrated into a centralized database. The data were then sorted and regional CFTR arrays were determined using mutations that appeared in a given region with a frequency of 0.5% or greater. Final analyses were based on 72,431 CF chromosomes, using data compiled from over 100 original papers, and over 80 regions from around the world, including all nations where CF has been studied using analytical molecular genetics. Initial results confirmed wide mutational heterogeneity throughout the world; however, characterization of the most common mutations across most populations was possible. We also examined CF incidence, DeltaF508 frequency, and regional mutational heterogeneity in a subset of populations. Data for these analyses were filtered for reliability and methodological strength before being incorporated into the final analysis. Statistical assessment of these variables revealed that there is a significant positive correlation between DeltaF508 frequency and the CF incidence levels of regional populations. Regional analyses were also performed to search for trends in the distribution of CFTR mutations across migrant and related populations; this led to clarification of ancestry-genotype patterns that can be used to design CFTR multi-mutation panels for CF screening programs. From comprehensive assessment of these data, we offer recommendations that multiple CFTR alleles should eventually be included to increase the sensitivity of newborn screening programs employing two-tier testing with trypsinogen and DNA analysis.

Predicting the risk of cystic fibrosis with abnormal ultrasound signs of fetal bowel: results of a French molecular collaborative study based on 641 prospective cases.

Abstract [show]
Hyperechogenic fetal bowel is prenatally detected by ultrasound during the second trimester of pregnancy in 0.1-1.8% of fetuses. It has been described as a normal variant but has often been associated with severe diseases, notably cystic fibrosis (CF). The aim of our study was to determine the risk of CF in a prospective study of 641 fetuses with ultrasonographically abnormal fetal bowel and the residual risk when only one mutation is detected in the fetus. Fetal cells and/or parental blood cells were screened for CFTR mutations. Two screening steps were used, the first covering the mutations most frequently observed in French CF patients (mutation detection rate of 70-90%) and, when a CF mutation was detected, a DGGE-sequencing strategy. We observed a 3.1% risk of CF when a digestive tract anomaly was prenatally observed at routine ultrasound examination. The risk was higher when hyperechogenicity was associated with bowel dilatation (5/29; 17%) or with the absence of gall bladder (2/8; 25%). The residual risk of CF was 11% when only one CF mutation was detected by the first screening step, thereby justifying in-depth screening. Mutations associated with severe CF (DeltaF508 mutation) were more frequently observed in these ultrasonographically and prenatally detected CF cases. However, the frequency of heterozygous cases was that observed in the normal population, which demonstrates that heterozygous carriers of CF mutations are not at increased risk for hyperechogenic bowel. In conclusion, fetal bowel anomalies indicate a risk of severe cystic fibrosis and justify careful CFTR molecular analysis.

Am J Med Genet. 2002 Jul 22;111(1):88-95., 2002-07-22 [PMID:12124743]
Abstract [show]
More than 1,000 mutations have been identified in the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane regulator (CFTR) disease gene. The impact of these mutations on the protein and the wide spectrum of CF phenotypes prompted a series of Genotype-Phenotype correlation studies. The CFTR genotype is invariably correlated with pancreatic status-in about 85% of cases with pancreatic insufficiency and in about 15% of cases with pancreatic sufficiency. The correlations between the CFTR genotype and pulmonary, liver, and gastrointestinal expression are debatable. The heterogeneous phenotype in CF patients bearing the same genotype or homozygotes for nonsense mutations implicated environmental and/or genetic factors in the disease. However, the discordant phenotype observed in CF siblings argued against a major role of environmental factors and suggested that genes other than CFTR modulate the CF phenotype. A locus that modulates gastrointestinal expression was identified in mice and subsequently in humans. By analyzing nine CF patients discordant for meconium ileus we were able to show that this locus had a dominant effect. Moreover, in a collaborative study we found a higher rate of polymorphisms in beta-defensin genes 1 and 2 in CF patients and in controls. In another multicenter study mutations in alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) and mannose binding lectin genes were found to be independent risk factors for liver disease in CF patients. The body of evidence available suggests that the variegated CF phenotype results from complex interactions between numerous gene products.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To assess the performance of a two tier neonatal screening programme (IRT/DNA/IRT) for cystic fibrosis, based on immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) followed by direct cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene analysis (based on a panel of up to 31 mutations) in hypertrypsinaemic newborn infants and to compare it with a previous screening protocol. SETTING: The study comprised all the newborn infants in the period 1 October 1998 to 31 December 1999 in the Lombardia region, north western Italy. METHODS: The screening strategy consisted of an immunoreactive trypsinogen assay from dried blood spots, a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by an oligonucleotide ligation assay (PCR-OLA), and a sequence code separation. RESULTS: 104 609 newborn infants were screened. 1457 hypertrypsinaemic infants (1.39%) were analysed with the PCR-OLA assay. 18 newborn homozygotes or compound heterozygotes for CFTR mutations were identified and referred to the cystic fibrosis (CF) centre at a mean age of 3 weeks. 125 infants presenting only one mutation were recalled for a sweat test: a diagnosis of CF was made in 13 infants, and parents of 112 neonates identified as carriers (1:13) received genetic counselling. The remaining 1314 hypertrypsinaemic newborn infants were recalled for IRT retesting and 177 were referred for a sweat test because the second IRT measurement was above the cut off value. Among this group a further two infants were diagnosed with CF (1.1%) leading to a CF prevalence of 1:3170. CONCLUSIONS: This strategy resulted in an early and accurate diagnosis of CF. The IRT/DNA/IRT protocol with an OLA assay was shown to be useful in an Italian population with a genetic heterogeneity, leading to the identification of 94% of infants with CF.

Urogenital abnormalities in male children with cystic fibrosis.
Arch Dis Child. 2002 Aug;87(2):135-8., [PMID:12138064]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) is presumed to occur prenatally and is present in over 99% of adult males with cystic fibrosis (CF). AIMS: To describe ultrasonic features in male children with CF. We aimed to describe urogenital anomalies, comparing pancreatic sufficient and insufficient CF patients. METHODS: Pelvic and scrotal ultrasonography were performed in 12 boys with CF aged 2-12 years and 16 age matched healthy controls. RESULTS: Nine patients had pancreatic insufficiency (PI): seven had two severe mutations and two had unknown mutations. Three boys were pancreatic sufficient (PS), two with splicing mutations (5T and 3849+10kb C-T respectively) and borderline sweat tests. Seminal vesicles were visualised in 5/12 patients and 8/16 controls, compared to non-visualisation reported in all adults with CBAVD. Testicular microlithiasis was found in 4/18 PI, 0/6 PS, and 0/32 control testes, compared to 0.6-1.4% in healthy males and 15% in CF adults; 7/18 PI, 4/6 PS, and 0/32 control testes were smaller than predicted for age. The epididymal head was non-homogeneous with cysts, hypo-, or hyper-echogenicity in 5/18 PI, 1/6 PS, and 0/32 control testes. CONCLUSIONS: Genital abnormalities may occur early in CF, but are less common than described in adults. They are found more often in pancreatic insufficient than in pancreatic sufficient CF patients. However, a positive finding, if present, may aid in the diagnosis of the latter. A larger longitudinal study is recommended to better define the onset and progression of urogenital abnormalities.

Analysis by mass spectrometry of 100 cystic fibrosis gene mutations in 92 patients with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens.
Hum Reprod. 2002 Aug;17(8):2066-72., [PMID:12151438]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Limited mutation analysis for congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) has revealed only a minority of men in whom two distinct mutations were detected. We aimed to determine whether a more extensive mutation analysis would be of benefit in genetic counselling and prenatal diagnosis. METHODS: We studied a cohort of 92 men with CBAVD using mass spectrometry and primer oligonucleotide base extension to analyse an approximately hierarchical set of the most common 100 CF mutations. RESULTS: Analysis of 100 CF mutations identified 33/92 (35.9%) patients with two mutations and 29/92 (31.5%) with one mutation, compound heterozygosity accounting for 94% (31/33) of those with two mutations. This panel detected 12.0% more CBAVD men with at least one mutation and identified a second mutation in >50% of those considered to be heterozygotes under the two routine 25 mutation panel analyses. CONCLUSION: Compound heterozygosity of severe/mild mutations accounted for the vast majority of the CBAVD patients with two mutations, and underscores the value of a more extensive CF mutation panel for men with CBAVD. The CF100 panel enables higher carrier detection rates especially for men with CBAVD, their partners, partners of known CF carriers, and those with 'mild' CF with rarer mutations.

Abstract [show]
tgAAVCF, an adeno-associated cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) viral vector/gene construct, was administered to 23 patients in a Phase II, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial. For each patient, a dose of 100,000 replication units of tgAAVCF was administered to one maxillary sinus, while the contralateral maxillary sinus received a placebo treatment, thereby establishing an inpatient control. Neither the primary efficacy endpoint, defined as the rate of relapse of clinically defined, endoscopically diagnosed recurrent sinusitis, nor several secondary endpoints (sinus transepithelial potential difference [TEPD], histopathology, sinus fluid interleukin [IL]-8 measurements) achieved statistical significance when comparing treated to control sinuses within patients. One secondary endpoint, measurements of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 in sinus fluid, was significantly (p < 0.03) increased in the tgAAVCF-treated sinus relative to the placebo-treated sinus at day 90 after vector instillation. The tgAAVCF administration was well tolerated, without adverse respiratory events, and there was no evidence of enhanced inflammation in sinus histopathology or alterations in serum-neutralizing antibody titer to adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsid protein after vector administration. In summary, this Phase II trial confirms the safety of tgAAVCF but provides little support of its efficacy in the within-patient controlled sinus study. Various potentially confounding factors are discussed.

Variant cystic fibrosis phenotypes in the absence of CFTR mutations.
N Engl J Med. 2002 Aug 8;347(6):401-7., 2002-08-08 [PMID:12167682]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis is a life-limiting autosomal recessive disorder with a highly variable clinical presentation. The classic form involves characteristic findings in the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, male reproductive tract, and sweat glands and is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR ) gene. Nonclassic forms of cystic fibrosis have been associated with mutations that reduce but do not eliminate the function of the CFTR protein. We assessed whether alteration in CFTR function is responsible for the entire spectrum of variant cystic fibrosis phenotypes. METHODS: Extensive genetic analysis of the CFTR gene was performed in 74 patients with nonclassic cystic fibrosis who had been referred by 34 medical centers. We evaluated two families that each included a proband without identified mutations and a sibling with nonclassic cystic fibrosis to determine whether there was linkage to the CFTR locus and to measure the extent of CFTR function in the sweat gland and nasal epithelium. RESULTS: Of the 74 patients studied, 29 had two mutations in the CFTR gene, 15 had one mutation, and 30 had no mutations. A final genotype of two mutations was more common among patients who had been referred after screening for common cystic fibrosis-causing mutations identified one mutation than among those who had been referred after screening had identified no such mutations (26 of 34 patients vs. 3 of 40 patients, P<0.001). Comparison of clinical features and sweat chloride concentrations revealed no significant differences among patients with two, one, or no CFTR mutations. Haplotype analysis in the two families revealed no linkage to CFTR. Although each of the affected siblings had elevated sweat chloride concentrations, measurements of cyclic AMP-mediated ion and fluid transport in the sweat gland and nasal epithelium demonstrated the presence of functional CFTR. CONCLUSIONS: Factors other than mutations in the CFTR gene can produce phenotypes clinically indistinguishable from nonclassic cystic fibrosis caused by CFTR dysfunction.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common severe inherited disorder that affects children in Caucasian populations. The aim of this study was to define the spatial and temporal distribution of CF and its mutations in Brittany (western France) where the frequency of the disease is high. We retrospectively registered all CF patients born in Brittany since 1960 by cross-checking various data sources (e.g. medical care centres, genetics laboratories, hospital archives). Councils were contacted so that the place of residence of patients at birth could be determined. Moreover, the spectrum of CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations and their spatial distribution across Brittany were determined. A total of 520 patients was registered in this study. The incidence of CF was assessed according to administrative (department, district) and diocesan divisions of Brittany and its evolution analysed over four decades. The incidence of CF was 1/2630, with a west/east gradient that was confirmed over time (Finistere: 1/2071 vs Ille-et-Vilaine: 1/3286). At present, the incidence of CF is decreasing, mainly as a result of prenatal diagnosis. An excellent mutation detection rate of 99.7% was obtained. Western Brittany presented a specific spectrum of mutations: 1078delT (9.4% of mutated alleles in the diocese of Cornouaille), G551D (7.7% in the diocese of Leon), 4005+1G-->A (2.9% in Cornouaille) and W846X (1.5% in western Brittany). On the other hand, the eastern region showed a spectrum more similar to the overall picture in France as a whole. This study enabled a precise measurement of the incidence of CF in Brittany to be obtained. The high frequency of the CFTR mutated alleles may result from founder effects and genetic drifts. Moreover, the study brings together the regional specificities of the CFTR gene and highlights disparities that exist in this part of France, both in incidence and in mutation distribution. These are attributable to different degrees of isolation and of population movements between the eastern and western parts of the region. Given that this is the first time that such a detailed study of the CFTR gene has been performed on a large population, this heightened knowledge of the epidemiology of CF in Brittany should provide a basis for the improvement of diagnostic strategies and refinement of genetic counselling.

Aminoglycoside suppression of a premature stop mutation in a Cftr-/- mouse carrying a human CFTR-G542X transgene.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. Since approximately 5% of all mutant CF alleles are stop mutations, it can be calculated that approximately 10% of CF patients carry a premature stop mutation in at least one copy of the CFTR gene. Certain ethnic groups, such as the Ashkenazi Jewish population, carry a much higher percentage of CF stop mutations. Consequently, a therapeutic strategy aimed at suppressing this class of mutation would be highly desirable for the treatment of this common genetic disease. We have shown previously that aminoglycoside antibiotics can suppress premature stop mutations in the CFTR gene in a bronchial epithelial cell line [Nat Med (1997) 3:1280]. To address whether aminoglycosides can suppress a CFTR premature stop mutation in an animal model, we constructed a transgenic mouse with a null mutation in the endogenous CFTR locus (Cftr-/-) that also expressed a human CFTR-G542X cDNA under control of the intestinal fatty acid binding protein promoter. We then investigated whether the daily administration of the aminoglycoside antibiotics gentamicin or tobramycin could restore the expression of a detectable level of CFTR protein. Immunofluorescence staining of intestinal tissues from Cftr-/- hCFTR-G542X mice revealed that gentamicin treatment resulted in the appearance of hCFTR protein at the apical surface of the glands of treated mice. Weaker staining was also observed in the intestinal glands following tobramycin treatment. Short-circuit current measurements made on intestinal tissues from these mice demonstrated that a significant number of positive cAMP-stimulated transepithelial chloride current measurements could be observed following gentamicin treatment (P=0.008) and a near significant number following tobramycin treatment (P=0.052). When taken together, these results indicate that gentamicin, and to a lesser extent tobramycin, can restore the synthesis of functional hCFTR protein by suppressing the hCFTR-G542X premature stop mutation in vivo.

Demographics of the UK cystic fibrosis population: implications for neonatal screening.

Abstract [show]
The objective was to determine the composition of the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Population attending specialist UK CF centres in terms of age, gender, age at diagnosis, genotype and ethnicity. With the planned introduction of the national CF screening programme in the UK, cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) mutations were compared between different ethnic groups enabling a UK-specific frequency of mutations to be defined. Data were analysed from the patient biographies held in the UK CF Database (see www.cystic-fibrosis.org.uk). The currently registered population of 5,274 CF patients is 96.3% Caucasian with a male preponderance that significantly increases with age. The majority of the 196 non-Caucasian CF patients are from the Indian Subcontinent (ISC), of which one in 84 UK CF patients are of Pakistani origin. The commonest CFTR mutation, deltaF508, is found in 74.1% of all CF chromosomes. In the Caucasian CF population, 57.5% are deltaF508 homozygotes but the UK ISC CF population with only 24.7%, has significantly fewer deltaF508 homozygotes patients (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.2-0.4). The distribution of Caucasian patients with deltaF508/deltaF508, deltaF508/Other and Other/Other does not fit the expected distribution with a Hardy-Weinberg model unless those patients without a detected mutation are excluded (P<0.001). The UK CF Database has shown the UK CF population to have distinct characteristics separate from the North American and European CF Registries. The ISC group contains many mutations not recognised by current genetic analysis, and one in four ISC patients have no CFTR mutations identified. The CFTR analysis proposed for the screening programme would detect 96% of patients registered in the database, but is unlikely to achieve the desired >80% detection rates in the ethnic minority groups. Screen-positive, non-Caucasian infants without an identifiable CFTR mutation should be referred for a sweat test and genetic counselling when serum trypsinogen concentrations remain elevated after birth.

Abstract [show]
1. This study compares the effect of three chemically unrelated cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) activators on epithelial cell monolayers expressing the G551D-CFTR mutant. 2. We measured Cl(-) transport as the amplitude of short-circuit current in response to the membrane permeable cAMP analogue 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)adenosine-3'-5'-cyclic monophosphate (CPT-cAMP) alone or in combination with a CFTR opener. The correction of G551D-CFTR defect was quantified by comparison with maximal activity elicited in cells expressing wild type CFTR. To this end we used Fisher rat thyroid (FRT) cells transfected with wild type or G551D CFTR, and primary cultures of human nasal epithelial cells. 3. In both types of epithelia, cAMP caused activation of Cl(-) transport that was inhibited by glibenclamide and not by 4,4'-diisothiocyanato-stilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid. After normalising for CFTR expression, the response of FRT-G551D epithelia was 1% that of wild type monolayers. 4. Addition of genistein (10-200 micro M), but not of 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (CPX, 1-100 micro M) or of the benzo[c]quinolizinium MPB-07 (10-200 micro M) to FRT-G551D epithelia pre-treated with cAMP, stimulated a sustained current that at maximal genistein concentration corresponded to 30% of the response of wild type epithelia. 5. The genistein dose-response curve was bell-shaped due to inhibitory activity at the highest concentrations. The dose-dependence in G551D cells was shifted with respect to wild type CFTR so that higher genistein concentrations were required to observe activation and inhibition, respectively. 6. On human nasal epithelia the correction of G551D-CFTR defective conductance obtained with genistein was 20% that of wild type. The impressive effect of genistein suggests that it might correct the Cl(-) transport defect on G551D patients.

Abstract [show]
One mission of the ACMG Laboratory Quality Assurance (QA) Committee is to develop standards and guidelines for clinical genetics laboratories, including cytogenetics, biochemical, and molecular genetics specialties. This document was developed under the auspices of the Molecular Subcommittee of the Laboratory QA Committee by the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Working Group. It was placed on the "fast track" to address the preanalytical, analytical, and postanalytical quality assurance practices of laboratories currently providing testing for CF. Due to the anticipated impact of the ACMG recommendation statement endorsing carrier testing of reproductive couples, it was viewed that CF testing would increase in volume and that the number of laboratories offering CF testing would also likely increase. Therefore, this document was drafted with the premise of providing useful information gained by experienced laboratory directors who have provided such testing for many years. In many instances, "tips" are given. However, these guidelines are not to be interpreted as restrictive or the only approach but to provide a helpful guide. Certainly, appropriately trained and credentialed laboratory directors have flexibility to utilize various testing platforms and design testing strategies with considerable latitude. We felt that it was essential to include technique-specific guidelines of several current technologies commonly used in laboratories providing CF testing, since three of the four technologies discussed are available commercially and are widely utilized. We take the view that these technologies will change, and thus this document will change with future review.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF), an epithelial cell transport disorder caused by mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, is not generally associated with malformations of the central nervous system (CNS). This report describes two African-American children who died at less than 2 years of age with known Chiari I malformations and were found, unexpectedly at autopsy, to have the classic pancreatic and respiratory changes of CF. Both patients had suffered from failure to thrive that had been attributed to their CNS malformations. One child also had recurrent pneumonia and died with Pseudomonas sepsis. Mutational analysis for > 70 common CFTR mutations identified a single delta F508 mutation in one patient and a single 3120+1G to A mutation in the other. Their second CFTR mutations were not identified. The association of CF with Chiari I malformation is not likely to be purely coincidental, as the probability of such an occurrence in African-Americans is greater than one in 7,500,000 patients. It is possible that the CFTR gene may play a previously unrecognized role in CNS development. Alternatively, this CNS abnormality may be acquired due to the metabolic and electrolyte imbalances that characteristically occur in CF.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Since it is impossible to sequence the complete CFTR gene routinely, clinical laboratories must rely on test systems that screen for a panel of the most frequent mutations causing disease in a high percentage of patients. Thus, in a cohort of 257 persons that were referred to our laboratory for analysis of CF gene mutations, reverse line probe assays for the most common CF mutations were performed. These techniques were evaluated as routine first-line analyses of the CFTR gene status. METHODS: DNA from whole blood specimens was extracted and subjected to PCR amplification of 9 exons and 6 introns of the CFTR gene. The resulting amplicons were hybridised to probes for CF mutations and polymorphisms, immobilised on membranes supplied by Roche Molecular Systems, Inc. and Innogenetics, Inc. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and sequencing of suspicious fragments indicating mutations were done with CF exon and intron specific primers. RESULTS: Of the 257 persons tested over the last three years (referrals based on 1) clinical symptoms typical for/indicative of CF, 2) indication for in vitro fertilisation, and 3) gene status determination because of anticipated parenthood and partners or relatives affected by CF), the reverse line blots detected heterozygote or homozygote mutations in the CFTR gene in 68 persons (26%). Eighty-three percent of those affected were heterozygous (47 persons) or homozygous (10 persons) for the DeltaF508 allele. The only other CF-alleles that we found with these tests were the G542X allele (3 persons), the G551D allele (3 persons), the 3849+10kb C-T allele (2 persons) the R117H allele (2 persons) and the 621+1G-T allele (1 person).Of the fifteen IVS8-5T-polymorphisms detected in intron 8, seven (47%) were found in males referred to us from IVF clinics. These seven 5T-alleles were all coupled with a heterozygous DeltaF508 allele, they make up 35% of the males with fertility problems (20 men) referred to us. CONCLUSIONS: In summary, the frequency of CF chromosomes in the cohort examined with these tests was 26%, with the DeltaF508 allele affecting 83% of the CF chromosomes. It is a substantial improvement for routine CF diagnostics to have available a test system for 30 mutations plus the polypyrimidine length variants in intron 8. Our results show that this test system allows a routine first-line analyses of the CFTR gene status.

Highest heterogeneity for cystic fibrosis: 36 mutations account for 75% of all CF chromosomes in Turkish patients.
Am J Med Genet. 2002 Dec 1;113(3):250-7., 2002-12-01 [PMID:12439892]
Abstract [show]
We analyzed the CFTR locus in 83 Turkish cystic fibrosis patients to identify mutations, haplotypes, and the carrier frequency in the population. We detected 36 different mutations in 125 (75%) of the total 166 CF chromosomes. Seven novel mutations were identified: four missense (K68E, Q493P, E608G, and V1147I), two splice-site (406 -3T > C and 3849 +5G > A), and one deletion (CFTRdele17b,18). The data showed that the Turkish population has the highest genetic heterogeneity at the CFTR locus reported so far. The results of this thorough molecular analysis at the CFTR locus of a population not of European descent shows that CF is not uncommon in all such populations. The large number of mutations present, as well as the high heterogeneity in haplotypes associated with the mutations suggests that most of the mutations have persisted for a long time in the population. Consistently, the carrier frequency is assessed to be high, indicating that the disease in the population is ancient.

Genes in the vicinity of CFTR modulate the cystic fibrosis phenotype in highly concordant or discordant F508del homozygous sib pairs.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common severe autosomal recessive disease among Caucasians and is caused by lesions within the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator ( CFTR) gene. The variability of CF disease severity suggests the effect of modifying factors. Thirty-four highly concordant and highly discordant F508del homozygous sib pairs, who have been selected out of a group of 114 pairs for extreme disease phenotypes by nutritional and pulmonary status, were typed at single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and short tandem repeat polymorphisms (STRPs) in the 24-cM CFTR-spanning region between D7S525 and D7S495. Allele frequencies differed significantly at D7S495, located within a 21-cM distance 3' of CFTR, comparing concordant mildly affected, concordant severely affected and discordant sib pairs, as judged by hypothesis-free permutation analysis by Monte Carlo simulation. A rare haplotype of two SNPs within the leptin gene promotor was found exclusively among the concordant mildly affected pairs. All concordant sib pairs shared the paternal F508del chromosome between CFTR and D7S495, whilst the cohort of discordant sib pairs inherited equal proportions of recombined and non-recombined parental chromosomes. We conclude that disease manifestation in CF is modulated by loci in the partially imprinted region 3' of CFTR that determine stature, food intake and energy homeostasis, such as the Silver-Russel-Syndrome candidate gene region and LEP.

A clinical perspective of cystic fibrosis and new genetic findings: relationship of CFTR mutations to genotype-phenotype manifestations.
Am J Med Genet A. 2003 Jan 30;116A(3):262-7., 2003-01-30 [PMID:12503104]
Abstract [show]
The present report describes several aspects of the relationship of mutations in the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene to phenotype expression of the disease including several clinical vignettes from the authors' experience. The genotype-phenotype relationships in CF are complex, and are affected by many factors, including pollution, smoking, bacterial infection, malnutrition, and certain therapeutic agents. The number of CFTR mutations is growing continuously and rapidly, and more than 1,000 mutations have been discovered so far. From a genetic point of view, the deltaF508 mutation is not only the most frequently encountered but also the most severe genetic lesion for homozygotes. The great clinical variability observed in patients with CF, particularly the severity of lung disease, involvement of the pancreas, and male infertility, are beginning to be better understood through the knowledge, although incomplete, of CFTR mutations and their phenotype expressions. This knowledge has had very significant research and clinical applications in all dimensions of the CF problem. It has not only contributed to the enhancement of better diagnosis and clinical management, but it also has opened new and unanticipated lines of investigation and research.

Abstract [show]
A genotypic study was undertaken to characterize the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator gene mutations (CFTR) in the Bahraini cystic fibrosis (CF) population using a polymerase chain reaction-based direct gene test to search for 15 common CF mutations amongst Arabs. During the period October 2000 to May 2001, 19 patients (12 males and seven females; aged at time of study between 4 months and 14 years with a mean age of 5.4 +/- 4.3 years) from 13 families were recruited in the study. Patients were diagnosed as having CF, based on a typical clinical picture and sweat chloride levels > 60 mmol/l and were screened for CFTR mutations. The rate of consanguinity among the families was 77 per cent. Eight mutations were detected in 21 of the 26 alleles examined. The overall detection rate was approximately 81 per cent. The allele frequency of the eight mutations was estimated to be approximately 73 per cent. There was no specific phenotypic pattern that correlated with a specific genotype. All families except two were of Bahraini origin. Of the eight mutations detected, four were common among Bahrainis (2043delG > 548A --> T > 4041C --> G = deltaF508, in order of decreasing frequency), accounting for 66 per cent of the Bahraini CF alleles. However, we also detected four different heterozygous mutations, namely: 1161delC, 1756G -->T, 3120 + 1G --> A, and 3661A --> T, accounting for 16 per cent of the Bahraini CF alleles.

Genet Med. 2003 Jan-Feb;5(1):9-14., [PMID:12544470]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: To develop a sequencing assay for the gene to identify mutations in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). METHODS: An automated assay format was developed to sequence all exons and splice junctional sequences, the promotor region, and parts of introns 11 and 19. RESULTS: After validating the assay using 20 known samples, DNA of seven patients, four of whom were heterozygous for a known CF mutation, was sequenced. Known CF mutations were detected in seven of the eight chromosomes, and a novel missense mutation was detected in the eighth. In addition, this assay allowed 14 ambiguous results obtained using the Roche CF gold strips to be resolved. Three false-positive diagnoses were prevented; a different mutation at the same codon was identified in two patients and confirmation was provided in the remaining nine cases. CONCLUSIONS: Sequencing of the gene provides important information for CF patients and is a valuable adjunct to a carrier screening program to resolve ambiguities in panel testing.

Abstract [show]
Neonatal screening for cystic fibrosis was decided by the national medical authorities after a common investigation conducted by the French association ADPHE and national health insurance fund. Based on therapeutic progress and the proposed method using determination of blood immunoreactive trypsin then study of the main CF mutations, there is strong hope of effective CF detection and clinical benefit for the patients.

Modulation of Ca2+-activated Cl- secretion by basolateral K+ channels in human normal and cystic fibrosis airway epithelia.
Pediatr Res. 2003 Apr;53(4):608-18. Epub 2003 Feb 5., [PMID:12612194]
Abstract [show]
Human airway epithelia express Ca2+-activated Cl- channels (CaCC) that are activated by extracellular nucleotides (ATP and UTP). CaCC is preserved and seems to be up-regulated in the airways of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. In the present study, we examined the role of basolateral K+ channels in CaCC-mediated Cl- secretion in native nasal tissues from normal individuals and CF patients by measuring ion transport in perfused micro Ussing chambers. In the presence of amiloride, UTP-mediated peak secretory responses were increased in CF compared with normal nasal tissues. Activation of the cAMP pathway further increased CaCC-mediated secretion in CF but not in normal nasal mucosa. CaCC-dependent ion transport was inhibited by the chromanol 293B, an inhibitor of cAMP-activated hKvLQT1 K+ channels, and by clotrimazole, an inhibitor of Ca2+-activated hSK4 K+ channels. The K+ channel opener 1-ethyl-2-benzimidazolinone further increased CaCC-mediated Cl- secretion in normal and CF tissues. Expression of hSK4 as well as hCACC-2 and hCACC-3 but not hCACC-1 was demonstrated by reverse transcriptase PCR on native nasal tissues. We conclude that Ca2+-activated Cl- secretion in native human airway epithelia requires activation of Ca2+-dependent basolateral K+ channels (hSK4). Co-activation of hKvLQT1 improves CaCC-mediated Cl- secretion in native CF airway epithelia, and may have a therapeutic effect in the treatment of CF lung disease.

Abstract [show]
The incidence of cystic fibrosis (CF) at birth in Ireland is 1/1461. Neonate CF genetic testing is not routinely performed in Ireland. Currently, screening is only carried out where there is clinical evidence or a family history to suggest disease. Here we report the frequencies of common CF mutations occurring in an Irish population composed of samples collected from western, mid-western and southern regions of Ireland. Rarer CF mutations were also identified in a selected number of CF patients. In addition, a number of polymorphisms were identified, some of which are reported to be functionally and phenotypically important.

Longitudinal follow-up of exocrine pancreatic function in pancreatic sufficient cystic fibrosis patients using the fecal elastase-1 test.
J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr. 2003 Apr;36(4):474-8., [PMID:12658038]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: A progressive decline in pancreatic function is possible in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with exocrine pancreatic sufficiency. The secretin-cholecystokinin test is invasive and not acceptable as a repeatable procedure for children. Steatorrhea, conversely, has low sensitivity. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the usefulness of the noninvasive fecal elastase-1 (E1) test for the longitudinal assessment of exocrine pancreatic function (EPF) in pancreatic-sufficient (PS) CF patients. METHODS: One hundred eighty-four CF patients were included in the study. In all subjects, E1 concentrations and fecal fat excretion were measured. PS patients were followed for 5 years. RESULTS: At the beginning of the study, 35 (19.0%) CF patients were PS, and 32 (17.4%) had normal E1 concentrations. Longitudinal measurements of E1 concentrations in PS patients with CF demonstrated stable enzyme output in 27 and gradual decrease in 8. The decrease was rapid in five infant patients and gradual in three older patients. The decrease of E1 concentrations preceded the appearance of steatorrhea in all eight subjects. CONCLUSIONS: The decline of EPF in patients with CF appears more frequently during the first months and years of life. However, late PS to pancreatic-insufficient (PI) conversion is also possible. The appearance of maldigestion is preceded by the decrease of fecal E1 concentration. Thus, the fecal E1 test is a helpful screening tool for the longitudinal assessment of declining EPF in PS patients with CF to demonstrate pancreatic deterioration. In suspected patients, fecal fat excretion should be assessed.

Abstract [show]
The prevalence of nasal polyps in a group of paediatric patients with cystic fibrosis was prospectively studied in comparison with a control group with cystic fibrosis but without polyps. Clinical variables, including pulmonary function tests, skin testing and mucociliary transport, were carried out in both groups, as well as genotype analysis. Endoscopic intranasal evaluation identified polyps in 29 of 89 patients (33%). Statistical analysis revealed that patients with nasal polyposis had better pulmonary function, a higher rate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonization, more hospitalizations, and more prevalence of allergy to Aspergillus fumigatus than did the comparison group. We found no statistically different genotype distribution between the polyposis and the control group. However, it can be emphasized that the prevalence of the compound heterozygous genotype is higher in the nasal polyposis group than in controls. Our observations suggest that other genetic and environmental factors could play an important role in the development of nasal polyposis.

Spatial patterns of cystic fibrosis mutation spectra in European populations.
Eur J Hum Genet. 2003 May;11(5):385-94., [PMID:12734544]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most frequent severe recessive disorder in European populations. We have analyzed its mutation frequency spectrum in 94 European, North African and SW Asian populations taken from the literature. Most major mutations as well as the incidence of CF mutations showed clinals patterns as demonstrated by autocorrelogram analysis. More importantly, measures of mutation diversity did also show clinal patterns, with mutation spectra being more diverse in southern than in northern Europe. This increased diversity would imply roughly a three-fold long-term effective population size in southern than in northern Europe. Distances were computed among populations based on their CF mutation frequencies and compared with distances based on other genic regions. CF-based distances correlated with mtDNA but not with Y-chromosome-based distances, which may be a consequence of the relatively homogeneous CF mutation frequencies in European populations.

Analysis of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutations in patients with congenital absence of the uterus and vagina.
Am J Med Genet A. 2003 Jul 1;120A(1):72-6., 2003-07-01 [PMID:12794695]
Abstract [show]
The relationship between cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) mutations and congenital absence of the uterus and vagina (CAUV) was examined. CFTR mutations have previously been associated with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD). CBAVD is caused by a disruption in the vas deferens, a Wolffian duct derivative. Because the embryologic development of the Mullerian ducts directly depends on the prior normal development of the Wolffian ducts, the same gene products may be necessary for normal embryologic development of both ductal systems. This study evaluated the role of CFTR mutations in the development of CAUV. DNA samples from 25 patients with CAUV were tested for the presence of 33 of the most common CFTR mutations. Protein-coding DNA fragments from the CFTR gene were amplified in vitro by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and analyzed for mutations using allele-specific oligonucleotide (ASO) probes. Two patients were heterozygous for CFTR mutations. One was heterozygous for the W1282X mutation and the other was heterozygous for the DeltaF508 mutation. The incidence of the 33 CFTR mutations found in the patients with CAUV (8%) was twice that found in the general population (4%), but much less than the incidence of CFTR mutations in men with CBAVD (80%). This data suggests that it is unlikely for CFTR mutations to cause CAUV in females as they cause CBAVD in some males. Furthermore, the data suggest that CAUV in females may be the same disorder as CBAVD in males who do not have CFTR mutations.

Comparison of the CFTR mutation spectrum in three cohorts of patients of Celtic origin from Brittany (France) and Ireland.
Hum Mutat. 2003 Jul;22(1):105., [PMID:12815607]
Abstract [show]
This study aims to compare the spectrum of the mutations identified in the gene responsible for cystic fibrosis in three cohorts of patients of Celtic origin from Brittany and Ireland. It included 389 patients from Brittany, 631 from Dublin and 139 from Cork. The CFTR gene analysis relied on the detection of the most common mutations, followed by a complete gene scanning using DGGE or D-HPLC. High mutation detection rates were obtained in each cohort: 99.6%, 96.8%, and 96.0% respectively. A high frequency of the c.1652_1655 del3 mutation (F508del: 74.8% to 81.3%) and of the "Celtic" mutation (c.1784G>A (G551D): 3.7% to 9.7%) was observed in each population. Apart from this, the mutation spectrums differed. In Brittany, the most common abnormalities were: c.1078delT (3.6%), c.4041C>G (N1303K: 1.4%), c.2670G>A (W846X(2): 1.0%) and c.1717-1G>A (1.0%), whereas in the cohort of Dublin, the main mutations were: c.482G>A (R117H: 3.0%), c.1811G>C (R560T: 2.4%) and c.621+1G>T (1.7%). Finally, in the Cork area, only the c.482G>A mutation (R117H) reached a frequency of 1%. Two previously-unreported mutations were identified in the Dublin cohort: c.2623-2A>G and c.3446T>G (M1105R). This collaborative study highlights the similarities of the CFTR alleles in the Breton and Irish populations, but also the disparities that exist between these populations, despite their common origin. Each population has its own history, with its mixture of founder effects and genetic drifts, which are at the origin of the current mutation distribution. The molecular study of the CFTR gene provides new tools for retracing European populations' histories.

19 This spectrum is noteworthy because it includes a main mutation, accounting for 70% of the mutated alleles world-wide (the deletion F508del), four other mutations observed with a frequency over 1% (G542X: 2.4%, G551D: 1.6%, N1303K: 1.3%, W1282X: 1.2%) and a multitude of private abnormalities (Tsui, 2003).

Abnormal passive chloride absorption in cystic fibrosis jejunum functionally opposes the classic chloride secretory defect.
J Clin Invest. 2003 Jul;112(1):118-25., [PMID:12840066]
Abstract [show]
Due to genetic defects in apical membrane chloride channels, the cystic fibrosis (CF) intestine does not secrete chloride normally. Depressed chloride secretion leaves CF intestinal absorptive processes unopposed, which results in net fluid hyperabsorption, dehydration of intestinal contents, and a propensity to inspissated intestinal obstruction. This theory is based primarily on in vitro studies of jejunal mucosa. To determine if CF patients actually hyperabsorb fluid in vivo, we measured electrolyte and water absorption during steady-state perfusion of the jejunum. As expected, chloride secretion was abnormally low in CF, but surprisingly, there was no net hyperabsorption of sodium or water during perfusion of a balanced electrolyte solution. This suggested that fluid absorption processes are reduced in CF jejunum, and further studies revealed that this was due to a marked depression of passive chloride absorption. Although Na+-glucose cotransport was normal in the CF jejunum, absence of passive chloride absorption completely blocked glucose-stimulated net sodium absorption and reduced glucose-stimulated water absorption 66%. This chloride absorptive abnormality acts in physiological opposition to the classic chloride secretory defect in the CF intestine. By increasing the fluidity of intraluminal contents, absence of passive chloride absorption may reduce the incidence and severity of intestinal disease in patients with CF.

Molecular consequences of cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene mutations in the exocrine pancreas.
Gut. 2003 Aug;52(8):1159-64., [PMID:12865275]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: We tested the hypothesis that the actual or predicted consequences of mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator gene correlate with the pancreatic phenotype and with measures of quantitative exocrine pancreatic function. METHODS: We assessed 742 patients with cystic fibrosis for whom genotype and clinical data were available. At diagnosis, 610 were pancreatic insufficient, 110 were pancreatic sufficient, and 22 pancreatic sufficient patients progressed to pancreatic insufficiency after diagnosis. RESULTS: We identified mutations on both alleles in 633 patients (85.3%), on one allele in 95 (12.8%), and on neither allele in 14 (1.9%). Seventy six different mutations were identified. The most common mutation was DeltaF508 (71.3%) followed by G551D (2.9%), G542X (2.3%), 621+1G-->T (1.2%), and W1282X (1.2%). Patients were categorized into five classes according to the predicted functional consequences of each mutation. Over 95% of patients with severe class I, II, and III mutations were pancreatic insufficient or progressed to pancreatic insufficiency. In contrast, patients with mild class IV and V mutations were consistently pancreatic sufficient. In all but four cases each genotype correlated exclusively with the pancreatic phenotype. Quantitative data of acinar and ductular secretion were available in 93 patients. Patients with mutations belonging to classes I, II, and III had greatly reduced acinar and ductular function compared with those with class IV or V mutations. CONCLUSION: The predicted or known functional consequences of specific mutant alleles correlate with the severity of pancreatic disease in cystic fibrosis.

Detection of cystic fibrosis mutations by peptide mass signature genotyping.
Clin Chem. 2003 Aug;49(8):1318-30., [PMID:12881448]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The diversity of genetic mutations and polymorphisms calls for the development of practical detection methods capable of assessing more than one patient/one nucleotide position per analysis. METHODS: We developed a new method, based on peptide mass signature genotyping (PMSG), for the detection of DNA mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Exons of the gene were amplified, cloned, and expressed in Escherichia coli as peptide fusions, in natural as well as unnatural reading frames. Peptide analytes were purified by immobilized metal affinity chromatography and analyzed by matrix-assisted, laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Synthetic and natural DNA samples with the 25 mutations recommended for CFTR carrier screening (Grody et al. Genet Med 2001;3:149-54) were assessed using the PMSG test for the CFTR gene. RESULTS: Peptide analytes ranged from 6278 to 17 454 Da and varied 30-fold in expression; highly expressing peptides were observed by electron microscopy to accumulate as inclusion bodies. Peptides were reliably recovered from whole-cell lysates by a simple purification method. CFTR mutations caused detectable changes in resulting mass spectrometric profiles, which were >95% reliably detected in blinded testing of replicate synthetic heterozygous DNA samples. Mutation detection was possible with both sample pooling and multiplexing. The PMSG CFTR test was used to determine compound heterozygous mutations in DNA samples from cystic fibrosis patients, which were confirmed by direct DNA sequencing. CONCLUSIONS: The PMSG test of the CFTR gene demonstrates unique capabilities for determining the sequence status of a DNA target by sensitively monitoring the mass of peptides, natural or unnatural, generated from that target.

HFE alleles in an Irish cystic fibrosis population.
Genet Test. 2003 Summer;7(2):155-8., [PMID:12885340]
Abstract [show]
The variable clinical manifestations of cystic fibrosis (CF) suggest the influence of modifier genes. Genetic and environmental factors that determine whether an individual will develop associated complications are still being determined. It has been proposed that the gene for hemochromatosis, HFE, may be a modifier locus for CF disease phenotype. Recent research has suggested a relationship between mutations to the HFE gene and the development of meconium ileus (MI) and liver disease in CF. This study aims to expand our knowledge of the HFE mutations C282Y and H63D carrier rate in an Irish population of CF allele carriers. PCR restriction enzyme analysis was performed on blood samples from CF patients to identify the C282Y and H63D mutations. HFE status of CF allele carriers and CF patients (Delta F508) homozygotes with and without meconium ileus was determined. The carrier frequency for C282Y was 30.8% for the Delta F508 homozygote MI positive group, as compared to 12.5% for the non-Delta F508 MI positive group but did not reach statistical significance (p = 0.27). Interestingly, no Delta F508 homozygote patients were homozygous for the C282Y mutation.

Eur J Hum Genet. 2003 Sep;11(9):687-92., [PMID:12939655]
Abstract [show]
Susceptibility to alcoholic chronic pancreatitis (ACP) could be genetically determined. Mutations in cationic trypsinogen (PRSS1), cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), and serine protease inhibitor, Kazal type 1 (SPINK1) genes have been variably associated with both the hereditary and the idiopathic form of chronic pancreatitis (CP). Our aim was to analyze the three genes in ACP patients. Mutational screening was performed in 45 unrelated ACP patients and 34 patients with alcoholic liver disease (ALD). No mutation of PRSS1 was found in ACP and ALD patients. Three mutations of CFTR were detected in four ACP patients with a prevalence (8.9%) not significantly different from that observed (3.0%) in ALD patients and from that expected (3.2%) in our geographical area. Neither compound heterozygotes for CFTR nor trans-heterozygotes for CFTR/SPINK1 were found. One ACP patient (2.2%) was found to carry the most common mutation (N34S) of SPINK1 compared to none of the ALD patients (P=NS). In five other patients (two with ACP and three with ALD) other rare variants, including P55S, were found. In contrast with the hereditary and the idiopathic forms of CP, in which mutations of PRSS1, CFTR, and SPINK1 genes may occur, ACP is still a "gene(s)-orphan" disease. The supposed genetic susceptibility to ACP relies on other yet unknown gene(s) which could affect the alcohol metabolism or modulate the pancreatic inflammatory response to alcohol abuse.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis is a common autosomal recessive disorder that primarily affects the epithelial cells in the intestine, respiratory system, pancreas, gall bladder and sweat glands. Over one thousand mutations have currently been identified in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene that are associated with CF disease. There have been many studies on the correlation of the CFTR genotype and CF disease phenotype; however, this relationship is still not well understood. A connection between CFTR genotype and disease manifested in the pancreas has been well described, but pulmonary disease appears to be highly variable even between individuals with the same genotype. This review describes the current classification of CFTR mutation classes and resulting CF disease phenotypes. Complex disease alleles and modifier genes are discussed along with alternative disorders, such as disseminated bronchiectasis and pancreatitis, which are also thought to result from CFTR mutations.

Abstract [show]
Aberrant membrane transport caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene is associated with a wide spectrum of respiratory and digestive diseases as well as cystic fibrosis. Using a gene scanning method, we found 11 polymorphisms and mutations of the CFTR gene in the Korean population. Individual variants at these sites were analyzed by conventional DNA screening in 117 control and 75 patients having bronchiectasis or chronic pancreatitis. In a haplotype determination based on a Bayesian algorithm, 15 haplotypes were assembled in the 192 individuals tested. Several haplotypes, especially with Q1352H, IVS8 T5, and E217G, were found to have disease associations in a case-control study. Notably, a common polymorphism of M470V appears to affect the intensity of the disease association. Among the two haplotypes having IVS8 T5, the T5-V470 haplotype showed higher disease association than the T5-M470 haplotype. In addition, a Q1352H mutation found in a V470 background showed the strongest disease association. The physiological significances of the identified mutations were rigorously analyzed. Non-synonymous E217G and Q1352H mutations in the M470 background caused a 60-80% reduction in CFTR-dependent Cl(-) currents and HCO3(-) -transport activities. Surprisingly, the additional M470V polymorphic variant with the Q1352H mutation completely abolished CFTR-dependent anion transport activities. These findings provide the first evidence on the importance of CFTR mutations in the Asian population. Importantly, the results also reveal that interactions between multiple genetic variants in cis affect the final function of the gene products.

CFTR genotypes in patients with normal or borderline sweat chloride levels.
Hum Mutat. 2003 Oct;22(4):340., [PMID:12955726]
Abstract [show]
In recent years, some patients bearing "atypical" forms of cystic fibrosis (CF) with normal sweat chloride concentrations have been described. To identify the spectrum of mutant combinations causing such atypical CF, we collected the results of CFTR (ABCC7) mutation analysis from 15 laboratories. Thirty patients with one or more typical symptoms of the disease associated with normal or borderline sweat chloride levels and bearing two CFTR mutations were selected. Phenotypes and genotypes of these 30 patients are described. A total of 18 different CFTR mutations were observed in the 60 chromosomes analysed. F508del was present in 31.6 % of the mutated chromosomes and 3849+10kbC>T in 13.3 %. R117H, D1152H, L206W, 3272-26A>G, S1235R, G149R, R1070W, S945L, and the poly-T tract variation commonly called IVS8-5T were also observed. The relative frequency of CFTR mutations clearly differed from that observed in typical CF patients or in CBAVD patients with the same ethnic origin. A mild genotype with one or two mild or variable mutations was observed in all the patients. These findings improve our understanding of the distribution of CFTR alleles in CF with normal or borderline sweat chloride concentrations and will facilitate the development of more sensitive CFTR mutation screening.

Liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension in cystic fibrosis.
Eur J Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2003 Oct;15(10):1073-8., [PMID:14501614]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: Liver disease is the second cause of death in cystic fibrosis. The most deleterious complication of liver disease is portal hypertension, which has an estimated prevalence of up to 8%. Portal hypertension may manifest itself by splenomegaly, hypersplenism, gastro-oesophageal bleeding and ascites. The aim of our study was to determine the prevalence, risk factors and invasive management of portal hypertension at our centre. METHODS: One hundred and fifty patients with cystic fibrosis were followed up between 1975 and 2000 in the national cystic fibrosis centre in Israel. Forty patients (27%) had liver disease. All underwent clinical evaluation and laboratory and imaging studies. RESULTS: Portal hypertension was diagnosed in 10 patients (7%), of whom eight were male. The mean age at diagnosis was 11 years (range, 4-17 years). All had severe mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (the CFTR gene), pancreatic insufficiency, meconium ileus or distal intestinal obstruction syndrome and variceal bleeding. Seven patients underwent sclerotherapy to control acute bleeding. Four underwent portosystemic shunting (functioning up to 37 years). Two patients with severe lung and liver disease underwent transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunting, which provided bleeding control, but both died while waiting for lung/liver transplantation. One patient underwent liver transplantation due to liver failure and still had good liver and lung function 10 years later. CONCLUSIONS: Portal hypertension is more common among Israeli patients with cystic fibrosis. The unique genetic composition of our population may explain this phenomenon. Risk factors include male gender, pancreatic insufficiency, severe CFTR mutations, meconium ileus and meconium ileus equivalent. Sclerotherapy is the main option to control oesophageal variceal bleeding, while portosystemic shunts offer a prolonged alternative treatment for refractory bleeding. A transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt and liver transplantation may also be effective, but further research is required in order to establish their role.

N Engl J Med. 2003 Oct 9;349(15):1433-41., 2003-10-09 [PMID:14534336]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene containing a premature termination signal cause a deficiency or absence of functional chloride-channel activity. Aminoglycoside antibiotics can suppress premature termination codons, thus permitting translation to continue to the normal end of the transcript. We assessed whether topical administration of gentamicin to the nasal epithelium of patients with cystic fibrosis could result in the expression of functional CFTR channels. METHODS: In a double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial, patients with stop mutations in CFTR or patients homozygous for the DeltaF508 mutation received two drops containing gentamicin (0.3 percent, or 3 mg per milliliter) or placebo in each nostril three times daily for two consecutive periods of 14 days. Nasal potential difference was measured at base line and after each treatment period. Nasal epithelial cells were obtained before and after gentamicin treatment from patients carrying stop mutations, and the C-terminal of surface CFTR was stained. RESULTS: Gentamicin treatment caused a significant reduction in basal potential difference in the 19 patients carrying stop mutations (from -45+/-8 to -34+/-11 mV, P=0.005) and a significant response to chloride-free isoproterenol solution (from 0+/-3.6 to -5+/-2.7 mV, P<0.001). This effect of gentamicin on nasal potential difference occurred both in patients who were homozygous for stop mutations and in those who were heterozygous, but not in patients who were homozygous for DeltaF508. After gentamicin treatment, a significant increase in peripheral and surface staining for CFTR was observed in the nasal epithelial cells of patients carrying stop mutations. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with cystic fibrosis who have premature stop codons, gentamicin can cause translational "read through," resulting in the expression of full-length CFTR protein at the apical cell membrane, and thus can correct the typical electrophysiological abnormalities caused by CFTR dysfunction.

15 Howardetal.demonstratedthattwoCFTR-associated stop mutations could be suppressed by treating cells with low doses of an aminoglycoside antibiotic.12 Bedwell et al. demonstrated that after incubation of bronchial epithelial cell line IB3-1, whichcarriesaW1282XmutationofCFTR,withami- noglycosides, cyclic AMP (cAMP)-activated chloride conductance and the expression of functional CFTR were restored to the apical membrane.13 Recently, Zsembery et al. isolated cholangiocytes from the liver of a patient carrying the G542X mutation of CFTR and incubated them with gentamicin, resulting in the expression of cAMP-activated chloride transport.14 Thus, in vitro, gentamicin obviated the effect of stop-codon mutations on the transcription and translation of CFTR. This effect has subsequently been demonstrated in a number of models of other diseases caused by stop mutations,includingmusculardystrophy,15 Hurler`ssyndrome,16 cystinosis,17 late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis,18 and disorders involving the p53 gene.19 In a previous open pilot study, we found that topical application of gentamicin drops to the nose augmented chloride transport in epithelial cells of nine patients with cystic fibrosis who had at least one W1282X allele.20 Subsequently, Clancy et al.,21 in an open study, administered gentamicin intravenously to five patients who were heterozygous for stop mutations and found that four of the patients had hyperpolarization of the nasal potential differ- enceaftertheadministrationofisoproterenol,indicating that chloride transport was induced across the apical surface.

Abstract [show]
INTRODUCTION: An association has been found between CFTR gene mutations and chronic pancreatitis; however, there is a lack of information about the frequency of CFTR gene mutations in acute pancreatitis and in pancreatic cancer. AIM: To prospectively evaluate the prevalence of CFTR gene mutations in acute pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis, and pancreatic cancer. METHODOLOGY: Ninety-eight consecutive patients were studied and divided into 3 groups: 34 patients with acute pancreatitis, 46 patients with chronic pancreatitis, and 18 patients with pancreatic cancer. The mutation analysis of the CFTR gene was carried out using diagnostic commercial kits for the simultaneous detection of 29 mutations and Tn polymorphism. RESULTS: Among the 98 patients studied, 12 (12.2%) had CFTR gene mutations: 2 of the 34 patients (5.9%) with acute pancreatitis, 9 of the 46 (19.6%) with chronic pancreatitis, and 1 of the 18 (5.6%) with pancreatic cancer. All the mutations were found in heterozygosis (2 DeltaF508, 1 W1282X, and 9 T5 allele). CONCLUSION: Our prospective study adds further information about the frequency of CFTR mutations in patients with a single episode of acute pancreatitis. Furthermore, our results suggest an association of CFTR gene mutations with chronic alcoholic pancreatitis and emphasize the need for a multicenter study, possibly multinational, to conclusively establish the role of CFTR mutations as a genetic susceptibility factor for this disease.

Abstract [show]
We report the case of a patient suffering from idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (ICP) and compound heterozygous for mutations G542X and S1235R of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene. The patient had normal sweat test and no other clinical sign usually linked with a typical or moderate pathology (bronchiectasis, nasal polyposis, congenital absence of the vas deferens) of the CFTR gene. G542X is a severe mutation, which is usually found in classical cystic fibrosis when associated with other severe mutations. S1235R is a quite rare abnormality recently reported as being potentially pathogenic when combined in trans with a second CF mutation. Our case is quite similar to the only other six patients in the literature in whom only the pancreas is affected and who bear a rare mutation with moderate effect. The history and the clinical features of our patient indicate an unambiguous isolated ICP in which the presence of the S1235R mutation--in trans with regard to G542X--is likely responsible for the ICP phenotype. This case could throw light on some of the as yet poorly known abnormalities of the CFTR gene in the ICP phenotype.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by at least 1,000 different mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR). To determine the frequency of 70 common worldwide CFTR mutations in 155 Euro-Brazilian CF patients and in 38 Afro-Brazilian CF patients, we used direct PCR amplification of DNA from a total of 386 chromosomes from CF patients born in three different states of Brazil. The results show that screening for seventy mutations accounts for 81% of the CF alleles in Euro-Brazilians, but only 21% in the Afro-Brazilian group. We found 21 different mutations in Euro-Brazilians and only 7 mutations in Afro-Brazilians. The frequency of mutations and the number of different mutations detected in Euro-Brazilians are different from Northern European and North American populations, but similar to Southern European populations; in Afro-Brazilians, the mix of CF-mutations is different from those reported in Afro-American CF patients. We also found significant differences in detection rates between Euro-Brazilian (75%) and Afro-Brazilian CF patients (21%) living in the same state, Minas Gerais. These results, therefore, have implications for the use of DNA-based tests for risk assessment in heterogeneous populations like the Brazilians. Further studies are needed to identify the remaining CF mutations in the different populations and regions of Brazil.

11 Although the major mutation causing CF accounts for 66% of mutant chromosomes screened worldwide, at least 1,000 sequence alterations associated with the disease have been identified in the CFTR gene during the past years, and their frequencies vary between populations (Tsui, 1990, 1992; Cystic Fibrosis Genetic AnalysisConsortium,1994, 1999).Previously, we have shown allelic heterogeneity in Brazilian CF patients of European origin by screening for DF508 and another four common worldwide mutations (G542X, N1303K, G551D, and R553X).

Emerging drug treatments for cystic fibrosis.
Expert Opin Emerg Drugs. 2003 Nov;8(2):523-35., [PMID:14662004]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common life-shortening inherited disorders. Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene disrupt the localisation and function of the cAMP-mediated chloride channel. Most of the morbidity and mortality arise from the lung disease which is characterised by excessive inflammation and chronic infection. Research into the mechanisms of wild-type and mutant CFTR biogenesis suggest that multiple drug targets can be identified. This review explores the current understanding of the nature of the different mutant CFTR forms and the potential for repair of the chloride channel defect. High-throughput screening, pharmacogenomics and proteomics bring recent technological advances to the field.

Abstract [show]
It is controversial whether mutations in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator intrinsically dysregulate inflammation. We characterized passage 2 human tracheobronchial epithelial cell cultures morphologically and physiologically and determined whether cytokine production or nuclear factor-kappaB activation was systematically altered in cystic fibrosis (CF) cells. Non-CF and CF cells originating from a total of 33 and 25 lungs, respectively, were available for culture on plastic or at an air-liquid interface until well differentiated. Forskolin-stimulated short-circuit currents were present in representative polarized non-CF cultures and were absent in CF cultures, whereas uridine 5'-triphosphate-stimulated currents were present in both. Constitutive or interleukin (IL)-1beta-induced IL-8 or IL-6 secretion or nuclear factor-kappaB activity was not significantly different between non-CF and CF cells. The cytokines regulated upon activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) and IL-10 were not detectable. Stimulation with tumor necrosis factor-alpha or a synthetic toll-like receptor 2 agonist or variable doses and times of Staphylococcus aureus culture filtrate revealed a single dose- and time-dependent difference in IL-8 production by CF cells. Interestingly, although IL-8 secretion after stimulation with Pseudomonas aeruginosa filtrates was not greater in CF cells in the absence of human serum, it was variably greater in its presence. Thus, although exaggerated responses may develop under certain conditions, our results do not support an overall intrinsically hyperinflammatory phenotype in CF cells.

Abstract [show]
Prenatal screening for cystic fibrosis is reviewed. The disease, gene involved, molecular basis of disease, genotype/phenotype correlations and pilot trials are discussed, as well as historical perspectives, background and American College of Medical Genetics/American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommendations. A number of complex challenges to the implementation of cystic fibrosis screening exist, including mutation testing of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR), as well as laboratory and clinical issues. Current technologies for CFTR testing include reverse dot blots, amplification refractory mutation detection systems, oligonucleotide ligation assays, the Invader assay and NanoChip system. Emerging technologies are also considered, as well as quality assurance measures including analytical and clinical validation, reporting, residual risk calculations and prenatal diagnosis. An even greater challenge is clinical implementation, which focuses upon education and communication, choosing models, reporting, counseling and prenatal diagnosis.

Abstract [show]
This paper describes the adjustments to the French neonatal screening programme required by the introduction of systematic screening for cystic fibrosis (CF), taking into account both the legal and statutory framework and the lessons of a pilot study carried out 10 years ago. The French association for the screening and prevention of infant handicaps (AFDPHE) has been mandated by its regulatory agencies to organize screening for CF in France (metropolitan and overseas territories). During the year 2001, expert groups (Technical Aspects, Information, Ethics and Genetics, Criteria for CF Centres, Protocol for the Care of a Newborn with CF) issued recommendations for the establishment of a national programme that would guarantee efficiency and adequate patient care from the time of diagnosis onward. The programme is based on a strategy combining immunoreactive trypsin (IRT) assay and the analysis of DNA mutations in dried blood samples obtained at 3 days of age. When an elevated IRT value is found, DNA analysis is performed on the same sample. Owing to the relative regional heterogeneity existing in France, 30 selected mutations are used, which provide 85% coverage. The Ethics and Genetics Committee recommended that, in order to avoid arousing anxiety by a recall, informed consent, according to the French legislation on bioethics, should be obtained for all neonates at birth by having the parents sign directly on the sampling paper. Information brochures for parents and health professionals have been designed. A new organization of patient care, involving the creation of CF centres recognized by the Ministry of Health, has been decided; all children diagnosed are to be referred to such centres, where they can be well cared for by a trained staff with sufficient means. The programme was implemented region by region in France, from the beginning of the year 2002 to early 2003. The expert groups still meet periodically to evaluate the implementation of the programme and to check that the terms of the agreement between the AFDPHE and the Social Security Agency are complied with.

Abstract [show]
We conducted clinical and genetic analyses of 52 cystic fibrosis (CF) patients in Uruguay, which is about half of the known affected individuals in the country. A relatively high proportion had a mild presentation, characterized by pancreatic sufficiency (28%), a strong pulmonary component (97%), and borderline sweat electrolyte measurements (25%). Mutational analysis of CF chromosomes demonstrated a relatively low incidence of the DeltaF508 allele (40%) and a large number of other cystic fibrosis conductance regulator mutations, with an overall detection rate of about 71%. Fifteen different mutations were detected in our patients: DeltaF508, G542X, R1162X, G85E, N1303K, R334W, R75Q, R74W, D1270N, W1282X, DeltaI507, 2789+5G-->A, R1066C, -816C/T, R553X, as well as RNA splicing variant IVS8-5T. This group of Uruguayan CF patients has some characteristics in common with other populations of similar origin (Hispanics), as well as some unique characteristics.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Accurate determination of mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene is critical for genetic counselling and treatment of obstructive azoospermia. Of concern is that detection rates with routine CFTR mutation panels vary widely depending on patient ancestry; and such panels have limited value for azoospermic patients, who are more likely to carry rare mutations. An alternative approach offers comprehensive, CFTR mutation analysis by a DNA sequence method. We investigated whether this method could improve CFTR detection rates in men with obstructive azoospermia in a prospective study of men with obstructive azoospermia and their partners who were referred for genetic counselling and testing at one of two institutions. METHODS: Sixteen patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens (CAVD, n = 14) or idiopathic obstructive azoospermia (n = 2) were studied. DNA from all patients was analysed for mutations by the DNA sequence method. In addition to this method, six men underwent CFTR analysis by a common 25 or 31 mutation panel coupled with poly T analysis. In 10 subjects, common mutation panel findings were inferred from DNA sequence method results. RESULTS: Overall, 12/16 (75%) azoospermic patients had one or more CFTR mutations and/or 5T alleles, including 12 mutations in 10 patients (two compound heterozygotes) and seven 5T alleles in six patients (one homozygote). The sequence method detected all mutations and three variants of unknown significance. By comparison, the common mutation panels detected only 3/12 mutations (25%) and 0/3 variants. CONCLUSION: The DNA sequence method detects more CFTR mutations than common mutation panels. Given the serious, clinical consequences of transmitting such mutations, this study underscores the importance of accurate, CFTR mutation detection in men with obstructive azoospermia and their partners.

BACKGROUND: The recommendation for population- based cystic fibrosis (CF) carrier screening by the American College of Medical Genetics for the 25 most prevalent mutations and 6 polymorphisms in the CF transmembrane regulatory gene has greatly increased clinical laboratory test volumes. We describe the development and technical validation of a DNA chip in a 96-well format to allow for high-throughput genotype analysis. METHODS: The CF Portrait chip contains an 8 x 8 array of capture probes and controls to detect all requisite alleles. Single-tube multiplex PCR with 15 biotin-labeled primer pairs was used to amplify sequences containing all single-nucleotide polymorphisms to be interrogated. Detection of a thin-film signal created by hybridization of multiplex PCR-amplified DNA to complementary capture probes was performed with an automated image analysis instrument, NucleoSight. Allele classification, data formatting, and uploading to a laboratory information system were fully automated. RESULTS: The described platform correctly classified all mutations and polymorphisms and can screen approximately 1300 patient samples in a 10-h shift. Final validation was performed by two separate 1000-sample comparisons with Roche CF Gold line probe strips and the Applera CF OLA, Ver 3.0. The CF Portrait Biochip made no errors during this validation, whereas the Applera assay made seven miscalls of the IVS-8 5T/7T/9T polymorphism CONCLUSIONS: The CF Portrait platform is an automated, high-throughput, DNA chip-based assay capable of accurately classifying all CF mutations in the recommended screening panel, including the IVS-8 5T/7T/9T polymorphism.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multisystem disorder characterised by mutations of the CFTR gene, which encodes for an important component in the coordination of electrolyte movement across of epithelial cell membranes. Symptoms are pulmonary disease, pancreatic exocrine insufficiency, male infertility and elevated sweat concentrations. The CFTR gene has numerous mutations (>1000) and functionally important polymorphisms (>200). Early identification is important to provide appropriate therapeutic interventions, prognostic and genetic counselling and to ensure access to specialised medical services. However, molecular diagnosis by direct mutation screening has proved difficult in certain ethnic groups due to allelic heterogeneity and variable frequency of causative mutations. METHODS: We applied a gene scanning approach using DHPLC system for analysing specifically all CFTR exons and characterise sequence variations in a subgroup of CF Italian patients from the Lazio region (Central Italy) characterised by an extensive allelic heterogeneity. RESULTS: We have identified a total of 36 different mutations representing 88% of the CF chromosomes. Among these are two novel CFTR mutations, including one missense (H199R) and one microdeletion (4167delCTAAGCC). CONCLUSION: Using this approach, we were able to increase our standard power rate of mutation detection of about 11% (77% vs. 88%).

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: Mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene are associated with chronic pancreatitis in Caucasians. We developed a simple method for measuring finger sweat chloride concentration to test whether CFTR dysfunction underlies chronic pancreatitis in Japan where cystic fibrosis (CF) is rare. METHODS: We studied 25 patients with chronic (21 alcoholic and 4 idiopathic) pancreatitis and 25 healthy volunteers. Sweat chloride concentrations were measured by a finger sweat chloride test. We analyzed DNA for 20 common CFTR mutations in Europeans, 9 CF-causing mutations in Japanese, and 2 polymorphic loci, a poly-T tract and (TG) repeats, at intron 8. RESULTS: Thirteen patients (52%) had sweat chloride levels >60 mmol/L, a level consistent with CF, while only 4 (16%) healthy subjects exceeded this level. The 29 CF mutations and the 5T allele were detected in neither the patients nor controls. The (TG) 12 allele was common in both the patients (58%) and controls (48%). The (TG) 12/12 genotype was common in alcoholic pancreatitis (29%) compared with the (TG) 11/11 (10%). Patients with the (TG) 12/12 genotype had significantly higher sweat chloride concentrations than the controls. CONCLUSION: CFTR dysfunction as evidenced by a finger sweat chloride test is present in about half of Japanese patients with chronic pancreatitis, suggesting that this test may be useful for detecting the high-risk group. A higher proportion of the (TG) 12 allele may be a genetic background for elevated sweat chloride concentrations in Japanese patients.

Bronchiectasis in adult patients: an expression of heterozygosity for CFTR gene mutations?
Clin Genet. 2004 Jun;65(6):490-5., [PMID:15151509]
Abstract [show]
While all patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) have mutations in both CFTR alleles, often only one CFTR change is detected in patients with other lung disorders. The aim of this study was to investigate whether heterozygosity for CFTR mutations could be a determinant risk factor in the development of bronchiectasis in adult patients. We have performed the CFTR gene analysis in a cohort of 55 bronchiectasis adult patients with unknown etiology. The 5T variant (TG)m and the M470V polymorphisms were also analyzed. A general population in which the same molecular analysis was previously performed was used as the control group. The mutational spectrum of patients was also compared with that found in our CF population. CFTR mutations/variants were found in 20 patients (36%), 14 with only one mutant gene (25%). All six patients colonized by Staphylococcus aureus presented with at least one CFTR change (p = 0.001). No statistical significance was observed between patients with and without mutations for other clinical features. The 5T variant was found in four patients. Additionally, 90% of patients with mutations had the more functional M470 allele (p < 0.001). These results suggest the involvement of the CFTR gene in bronchiectasis of unknown etiology in adult patients.

Population-based newborn screening for genetic disorders when multiple mutation DNA testing is incorporated: a cystic fibrosis newborn screening model demonstrating increased sensitivity but more carrier detections.
Pediatrics. 2004 Jun;113(6):1573-81., [PMID:15173476]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: Newborn screening for cystic fibrosis (CF) provides a model to investigate the implications of applying multiple-mutation DNA testing in screening for any disorder in a pediatric population-based setting, where detection of affected infants is desired and identification of unaffected carriers is not. Widely applied 2-tiered CF newborn screening strategies first test for elevated immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) with subsequent analysis for a single CFTR mutation (DeltaF508), systematically missing CF-affected infants with any of the >1000 less common or population-specific mutations. Comparison of CF newborn screening algorithms that incorporate single- and multiple-mutation testing may offer insights into strategies that maximize the public health value of screening for CF and other genetic disorders. The objective of this study was to evaluate technical feasibility and practical implications of 2-tiered CF newborn screening that uses testing for multiple mutations (multiple-CFTR-mutation testing). METHODS: We implemented statewide CF newborn screening using a 2-tiered algorithm: all specimens were assayed for IRT; those with elevated IRT then had multiple-CFTR-mutation testing. Infants who screened positive by detection of 1 or 2 mutations or extremely elevated IRT (>99.8%; failsafe protocol) were then referred for definitive diagnosis by sweat testing. We compared the number of sweat-test referrals using single- with multiple-CFTR-mutation testing. Initial physician assessments and diagnostic outcomes of these screened-positive infants and any affected infants missed by the screen were analyzed. We evaluated compliance with our screening and follow-up protocols. All Massachusetts delivery units, the Newborn Screening Program, pediatric health care providers who evaluate and refer screened-positive infants, and the 5 Massachusetts CF Centers and their affiliated genetic services participated. A 4-year cohort of 323 506 infants who were born in Massachusetts between February 1, 1999, and February 1, 2003, and screened for CF at approximately 2 days of age was studied. RESULTS: A total of 110 of 112 CF-affected infants screened (negative predictive value: 99.99%) were detected with IRT/multiple-CFTR-mutation screening; 2 false-negative screens did not show elevated IRT. A total of 107 (97%) of the 110 had 1 or 2 mutations detected by the multiple- CFTR-mutation screen, and 3 had positive screens on the basis of the failsafe protocol. In contrast, had we used single-mutation testing, only 96 (87%) of the 110 would have had 1 or 2 mutations detectable by single-mutation screen, 8 would have had positive screens on the basis of the failsafe protocol, and an additional 6 infants would have had false-negative screens. Among 110 CF-affected screened-positive infants, a likely "genetic diagnosis" was made by the multiple-CFTR-mutation screen in 82 (75%) versus 55 (50%) with DeltaF508 alone. Increased sensitivity from multiple-CFTR-mutation testing yielded 274 (26%) more referrals for sweat testing and carrier identifications than testing with DeltaF508 alone. CONCLUSIONS: Use of multiple-CFTR-mutation testing improved sensitivity and postscreening prediction of CF at the cost of increased referrals and carrier identification.

AIDS. 2004 Jul 23;18(11):1521-7., 2004-07-23 [PMID:15238770]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: Pancreatic disorders in HIV-positive patients are frequent. CFTR and SPINK-1 mutations have been reported to increase the risk of pancreatitis, but no data are available in HIV-positive patients. This study will evaluate the frequency of CFTR mutations and SPINK-1 polymorphisms in HIV-positive patients with clinical pancreatitis or asymptomatic elevation of serum pancreatic enzymes. METHOD: Cases (patients with hyperamylasemia) were identified during a toxicity study conducted in August 1999 among 1152 participants of the Swiss HIV Cohort Study. We designed a case-control study in which each case was matched one to one to an HIV-infected control according to sex, age, CD4 cell count, viraemia and medication use. CFTR mutations and SPINK-1 polymorphisms were studied using polymerase chain reaction techniques. RESULTS: Fifty-one HIV-positive patients with hyperamylasemia were detected among 1152 participants in the toxicity study (4.4%). There were 13 carriers of CFTR and SPINK-1 mutations (12.7%). Amylase levels were 316 +/- 130 U/l for the group with mutations, and 135 +/- 18 U/l for non-carriers (P = 0.79). However, among patients with hyperamylasemia, those with CFTR or SPINK-1 mutations had 648 +/- 216 U/l amylase levels compared with 232 +/- 28 U/l for those without (P = 0.025). Ten patients had acute pancreatitis, four of whom had CFTR mutations or SPINK-1 polymorphisms (40%) compared with seven of the control patients (14%) (P = 0.01). CONCLUSION: CFTR mutations and SPINK-1 polymorphisms are frequent among HIV-positive patients suffering from acute pancreatitis. These mutations may increase the susceptibility to pancreatitis when exposed to environmental risk factors.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the autosomal recessive diseases, caused by mutations in a gene known as cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR). The majority of adult males with CF (99%) is characterized by congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens (CBAVD). CBAVD is encountered in 1-2% of infertile males without CF. Females with CF are found to be less fertile than normal healthy women. In females with CF, delayed puberty and amenorrhoea are common due to malnutrition. CFTR mutations are also associated with congenital absence of the uterus and vagina (CAUV). The National Institutes of Health recommend genetic counseling for any couple seeking assisted reproductive techniques with a CF male or obstructive azoospermia which is positive for a CF mutation.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis conductance transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene mutations and IVS8 poly(T) variants in Portuguese patients with bilateral (CBAVD) and unilateral (CUAVD) congenital absence of the vas deferens remain to be evaluated. METHODS: Patient screening was carried out by PCR, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and DNA sequencing. RESULTS: CFTR mutations were found in 18 out of 31 (58.1%) CBAVD and in three of four (75%) CUAVD patients. The most frequent mutations were F508del and R334W in CBAVD and G542X in CUAVD, with the allelic frequencies of R334W (6.5%) and G542X (25%) being particular to the Portuguese population. The 5T allelic frequency was 3.5% in the fertile male population, 25% in CUAVD and 27.4% in CBAVD patients. The combined frequency of mutations (CFTR+5T) was increased in CBAVD to 22 out of 31 (71%). The frequency of CFTR mutations was compared with that of patients with secondary obstructive azoospermia (OAZ; one out of 16, 6.3%) and non-obstructive azoospermia (NOAZ; two out of 22, 9.1%) with conserved spermatogenesis, which were similar to the general population. However, whereas the 5T allelic frequency in OAZ was similar to that of the general population (3.1%), it was increased in NOAZ cases (14.3%). CONCLUSIONS: Data confirm that CFTR+5T mutations represent the most common genetic abnormality in CAVD, and suggest that cases of NOAZ may be associated with the 5T allele.

Familial concordance of phenotype and microbial variation among siblings with CF.
Pediatr Pulmonol. 2004 Oct;38(4):292-7., [PMID:15334505]
Abstract [show]
The clinical spectrum of cystic fibrosis (CF) is influenced by the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) genotype. However, variable courses of the disease were demonstrated among patients with identical genotypes. Since siblings share identical CFTR mutations and environmental factors, they can serve as a model to assess the effect of modifier genes on disease expression, and also to evaluate cross-infection. The aim of this study was to compare disease expression among siblings with CF. All sibling pairs treated at 7 CF centers in Israel were included in the study. Data were collected from patients' medical charts. Fifty families with at least 2 siblings were identified. As expected, the second-born sibling was diagnosed at an earlier age compared to the first-born. The mode of CF presentation at diagnosis showed significant familial concordance. In the families where the first sibling presented with gastrointestinal manifestations, 79% of the second siblings also presented with gastrointestinal manifestations. When gastrointestinal manifestations were absent in the first sibling, only 12% of the second siblings presented with gastrointestinal manifestations (P < 0.0001). Likewise, when the first sibling presented with respiratory symptoms, 60% of the second siblings presented with the similar symptoms. However, when the first sibling presented without respiratory symptoms, only 12% of the second siblings presented with respiratory symptoms (P < 0.001). Meconium ileus (MI) was present in 20 patients (21%). In 10 families where the first-born sibling had MI, 8 (80%) of the subsequent siblings had MI. On the other hand, in the 39 families where the first-born sibling did not have MI, only 2 (5%) subsequent siblings had MI (P < 0.001). Pancreatic insufficiency (PI) also had high familial concordance (P < 0.0001). Percentile growth for weights and heights and lung function (FVC, FEV(1), and FEF(25-75)) at ages 7 and 10 years were similar between siblings. P. aeruginosa grew from sputum in 89% of our study patients. When P. aeruginosa was isolated from the first-born patient, 91% of the second siblings were also positive for P. aeruginosa, whereas when the initial sibling was not a carrier of P. aeruginosa, only 50% of subsequent siblings were positive (P < 0.0001). This familial concordance was not observed for S. aureus. By contrast, the age of first isolation of P. aeruginosa and S. aureus was significantly earlier in the second sibling than in the first for the two bacteria: 10.3 +/- 5.1 vs. 7.3 +/- 5.2 years (P < 0.05) for P. aeruginosa, and 11.5 +/- 5.4 years vs. 6.8 +/- 5.1 years (P < 0.05) for S. aureus. CF siblings tend to share similar phenotypes that are not mutation-dependent. The lack of variability between siblings in mode of initial CF presentation, rates of MI, pulmonary function, and nutritional status supports the role of modifier genes in the determination of these factors.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: To examine the data from > 335,000 Cystic fibrosis (CF) tests to detect unsuspected findings and obtain clinical data when indicated to optimize genetic counseling. METHODS: A proprietary database containing 335,204 consecutive CF DNA tests and 445 CF prenatal diagnostic tests was queried. Clinical information was obtained for prenatal and selected nonprenatal cases by telephone contact with physician offices. RESULTS: The mutation 1078delT was found in much lower frequency than expected with rates of only 1:55,867 tests and 0.06% of CF mutations. This level is below the threshold set by the American College of Medical Genetics. Homozygosity was observed for 2789+5G>A in a 29-year-old women and compound heterozygosity with delta F408 in a 40-year-old woman with isolated chronic sinusitis. Many patients elected prenatal diagnosis when not at a 1:4 risk due to echogenic bowel or IVS-8 5T issues. CONCLUSIONS: With the exception of 1078delT, all CF mutations in the ACMG panel were detected with a frequency of > 0.1% of CF chromosomes. When ACMG guidelines are strictly adhered to, population-based CF carrier screening will accurately identify couples at risk for having children with CF.

CFTR mutation distribution among U.S. Hispanic and African American individuals: evaluation in cystic fibrosis patient and carrier screening populations.
Genet Med. 2004 Sep-Oct;6(5):392-9., [PMID:15371903]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: We reviewed CFTR mutation distribution among Hispanic and African American individuals referred for CF carrier screening and compared mutation frequencies to those derived from CF patient samples. METHODS: Results from CFTR mutation analyses received from January 2001 through September 2003, were analyzed for four populations: Hispanic individuals with a CF diagnosis (n = 159) or carrier screening indication (n = 15,333) and African American individuals with a CF diagnosis (n = 108) or carrier screening indication (n = 8,973). All samples were tested for the same 87 mutation panel. RESULTS: In the Hispanic population, 42 mutations were identified: 30 in the patient population (77.5% detection rate) and 33 among carrier screening referrals. Five mutations not included in the ACMG/ACOG carrier screening panel (3876delA, W1089X, R1066C, S549N, 1949del84) accounted for 7.55% detection in patients and 5.58% among carriers. Among African American referrals, 33 different mutations were identified: 21 in the patient population (74.4% detection) and 23 in the carrier screening population. Together, A559T and 711+5G>A were observed at a detection rate of 3.71% in CF patients and 6.38% in carriers. The mutation distribution seen in both the carrier screening populations reflected an increased frequency of mutations with variable expression such as D1152H, R117H, and L206W. CONCLUSIONS: A detailed analysis of CFTR mutation distribution in the Hispanic and African American patient and carrier screening populations demonstrates that a diverse group of mutations is most appropriate for diagnostic and carrier screening in these populations. To best serve the increasingly diverse U.S. population, ethnic-specific mutations should be included in mutation panels.

Clinical sensitivity of prenatal screening for cystic fibrosis via CFTR carrier testing in a United States panethnic population.
Genet Med. 2004 Sep-Oct;6(5):405-14., [PMID:15371905]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: To estimate CFTR mutation frequencies, clinical sensitivities (proportions of carrier couples or affected fetuses detected), and birth prevalence estimates for broad racial/ethnic groups and for a panethnic U.S. population. METHODS: Published sources of information were identified, corrected when appropriate, and summarized. Combining racial/ethnic-specific mutation frequencies and birth prevalence estimates allowed the computation of panethnic estimates. RESULTS: Two of the 25 recommended mutations do not meet the 0.1% threshold in a panethnic population set by the American College of Medical Genetics. The clinical sensitivities are estimated to be 71.9%, 51.7%, 41.6%, 88.6%, and 23.4% for non-Hispanic Caucasians, Hispanic Caucasian, African American, Ashkenazi Jewish Caucasian, and Asian American couples, respectively. Birth prevalence estimates are 1:2,500, 1:13,500, 1:15,100, 1:2,270, and 1:35,100, whereas the number of couples needed to screen to detect an affected fetus are about 3,200, 26,120; 36,040; 2,600, and 129,600, respectively, for the same racial/ethnic groups. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, the panethnic estimates for CFTR mutation frequencies are similar to those for non-Hispanic Caucasians. However, large differences in both clinical sensitivity and birth prevalence exist between the broad racial/ethnic groups examined. Whether and how the differences in the numbers of couples needed to screen to detect an affected fetus are to be included in prenatal screening for cystic fibrosis needs to be more explicitly addressed.

Premarital and prenatal screening for cystic fibrosis: experience in the Ashkenazi Jewish population.
Genet Med. 2004 Sep-Oct;6(5):415-20., [PMID:15371906]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: Since the early 1990s, Dor Yeshorim (DY) and the Mount Sinai School of Medicine (MSSM) have conducted premarital and prenatal carrier screening for cystic fibrosis (CF) in the Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) population as part of their genetic testing programs, respectively. Together, over 170,000 screenees have been tested. In this study, we report the CF mutation frequencies in over 110,000 screenees who reportedly were of 100% AJ descent from the DY program and MSSM. In addition, the CF mutation frequencies in a group of > 7,000 screenees for AJ diseases who were of < 100% AJ descent are reported. METHODS: Testing for CF mutations was performed by either PCR and restriction digestion or ASO hybridization analyses at MSSM or sent to various academic and commercial laboratories by DY. RESULTS: The overall (and individual) carrier frequency for the five common AJ mutations, W1282X (0.020), DeltaF508 (0.012), G542X (0.0024), 3849+10kb C>T (0.0020), and N1303K (0.0016), among screenees who were 100% AJ was 1 in 26; when D1152H and the rare 1717-1G>A were included, the overall carrier frequency increased to approximately 1 in 23. In four families with D1152H, five compound heterozygotes for D1152H and W1282X (n = 2), DeltaF508 (1) or 3849+10kb C>T (1) were identified. In contrast, the carrier frequency for screenees reporting < 100% AJ descent was approximately 1 in 30 for the seven mutations. CONCLUSIONS: The carrier frequency for five common CF mutations in a large 100% AJ sample increased from 1 in 26 to 1 in 23 when D1152H was included in the panel. Addition of D1152H to mutation panels when screening the AJ population should be considered because compound heterozygosity is associated with a variable disease phenotype. Further studies to delineate the phenotype of CF patients with this mutation are needed.

14 Although the demand for screening was great, widespread population screening was not actually recommended by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) and American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) until 2001.5 Based on a frequency of at least 0.1% of mutant alleles in a large CF patient database, a panel of 25 mutations was recommended even though the sensitivity was still below 90% in most ethnic groups.6 The results of screening with this mutation panel were reviewed in 20027 and most recently, in this issue.8 The Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) population represents a unique group for genetic screening as common mutations occur in prevalent recessive diseases due to founder effect and/or selection.9,10 With regard to CF, five CFTR mutations (W1282X, ⌬F508, G542X, 3849ϩ10kb CϾT, N1303K) account for 97% of the mutant alleles in AJ CF patients.11 This population has a very high acceptance rate for genetic screening and has had a positive experience with carrier screening, beginning with Tay-Sachs disease in 1970.12,13 In this study, we report our experiences with CF carrier screening in the AJ population using two different approaches: premarital (Dor Yeshorim, DY) and prenatal screening (Mount Sinai School of Medicine, MSSM).

Genotype-phenotype correlation and frequency of the 3199del6 cystic fibrosis mutation among I148T carriers: results from a collaborative study.
Genet Med. 2004 Sep-Oct;6(5):421-5., [PMID:15371907]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: We expect that the mutation panel currently recommended for preconception/prenatal CF carrier screening will be modified as new information is learned regarding the phenotype associated with specific mutations and allele frequencies in various populations. One such example is the I148T mutation, originally described as a severe CF mutation. After implementation of CF population-based carrier screening, we learned that I148T exists as a complex allele with 3199del6 in patients with clinical CF, whereas asymptomatic compound heterozygotes for I148T and a second severe CF mutation were negative for 3199del6. METHODS: We performed reflex testing for 3199del6 on 663 unrelated specimens, including I148T heterozygotes, compound heterozygotes, and a homozygous individual. RESULTS: Less than 1% of I148T carriers were also positive for 3199del6. Excluding subjects tested because of a suspected or known CF diagnosis or positive family history, 0.6% of I148T-positive individuals were also positive for 3199del6. We identified 1 I148T homozygote and 6 unrelated compound heterozygous individuals with I148T and a second CF variant (2 of whom also carried 3199del6). In addition, one fetus with echogenic bowel and one infertile male were heterozygous for I148T (3199del6 negative). CONCLUSIONS: Reflex testing for 3199del6 should be considered whenever I148T is identified. Reflex testing is of particular importance for any symptomatic patient or whenever one member of a couple carries a deleterious CF mutation and the other member is an I148T heterozygote. Further population data are required to determine if I148T, in the absence of 3199del6, is associated with mild or atypical CF or male infertility.

PURPOSE: We developed a 51-mutation extended cystic fibrosis (CF) panel that incorporates the 25 previously recommended CFTR mutations, plus 26 additional mutations including 3199del6, which was associated with I148T. METHODS: This assay utilizes an integrated matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry system. RESULTS: CF testing was performed on over 5,000 individuals, including a 3-year-old Hispanic-American patient with a compound heterozygous G542X/3199del6 genotype. He is negative for I148T, or other mutations assessed by CFTR gene sequencing. CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate the successful implementation of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry in CF clinical testing, and establish 3199del6 as a disease-causing CF mutation.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: To validate a novel BeadChip assay system for cystic fibrosis (CF) mutation testing using the panel of 25 ACMG recommended mutations and D1152H. METHODS: DNA from 519 individuals originally tested for CF mutation status by allele specific oligonucleotide hybridization (ASOH) were blindly analyzed by the BeadChip assay and the results were compared. The elongation mediated multiplexed analysis of polymorphisms (eMAP) protocol, which combines multiplex amplification of genomic DNA and multiplex detection of mutations on color-coded bead arrays, was used to analyze 26 CF mutations in two separate groups. RESULTS: The system accurately distinguished the 26 CF genotypes and had 100% concordance with the ASOH technique with an assay failure rate of 1.7%. Benign variants of exon 10 codons 506, 507, and 508 did not interfere with mutation identification and reflex testing for the 5/7/9T IVS8 polymorphism was performed on a separate array. CONCLUSIONS: The BeadChip assay system provided accurate and rapid identification of the ACMG recommended CF mutations.

CFTR mutations and polymorphisms in male infertility.
Int J Androl. 2004 Oct;27(5):251-6., [PMID:15379964]
Abstract [show]
Apart from cystic fibrosis, mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene are also involved in congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD). A mutation is identified in about 80% of the CFTR genes derived from CBAVD patients; the genetic defect in the remainder is yet unknown. In contrast to CF patients, when CFTR is involved, at least one of the mutant CFTR genes of CBAVD patients harbors a mild mutation. A polyvariant mutant CFTR gene is the most frequent CBAVD causing mutant CFTR gene. Here, combinations of particular alleles at several polymorphic loci yield insufficient functional CFTR. The fact that most CBAVD patients, that carry mutations on both CFTR genes, have no lung disease is most probably explained by tissue specific alternative splicing, which is increased in vas deferens compared to bronchial tissue. It has also been reported that CBAVD may be involved in other forms of infertility than CBAVD, however this has not always been confirmed in other studies. Because of techniques such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection, CBAVD patients are now able to father children, however such couples have an increased risk of having a child with cystic fibrosis, and therefore genetic testing and counselling should be provided.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common autosomal recessive disorder in Caucasians, with a frequency of approximately 1 in 3000 live births. The mutated gene is a defective chloride channel in epithelial cells, named cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Several different protocols for the scanning of the entire gene have aided molecular diagnosis and improved our understanding of the disorder's pathophysiology, but also showed the disease's complexity. Therefore, CF phenotype remains difficult to predict from CFTR mutation data alone: several studies have suggested that additional genes could modulate its clinical outcome. Gene replacement therapy is still far from being used in patients with CF, mostly due to the difficulties with targeting the appropriate cells. In this review, we summarize recent advances, both in the pharmacological and gene therapy field, aimed for the treatment of the disease.

Pharmacologic therapy for stop mutations: how much CFTR activity is enough?
Curr Opin Pulm Med. 2004 Nov;10(6):547-52., [PMID:15510065]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The purpose of this review is to summarize the recent approaches using mutation-specific therapy to correct the genetic defect according to the molecular mechanism by which the mutation causes the defects in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Premature stop mutations (class I mutations) account for 5 to 10% of the total mutant alleles in cystic fibrosis patients, and in certain subpopulations the incidence is much higher. RECENT FINDINGS: The aminoglycoside antibiotics can suppress premature termination codons by permitting translation to continue to the normal termination of the transcript. The susceptibility to suppression by aminoglycosides depends on the stop codon itself and on the sequence context surrounding it. In vitro studies in cell lines expressing stop mutations and in mice have shown that aminoglycosides caused a dose-dependent increase in CFTR expression and restored functional CFTR to the apical membrane. Clinical studies also provided evidence that the aminoglycoside gentamicin can suppress these CFTR premature stop mutations in affected patients. A recent double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study has demonstrated restoration of CFTR function by topical application of gentamicin to the nasal epithelium of cystic fibrosis patients carrying stop mutations. In 21% of the patients there was a complete normalization of all the electrophysiologic abnormalities caused by the CFTR defect, and in 68% there was restoration of either chloride or sodium transport. Furthermore, immunohistochemical staining to the C-terminal part of the CFTR was demonstrated via peripheral staining for CFTR in scraped nasal epithelial cells of patients carrying stop mutations. Inconsistent results were reported regarding the required level of corrected CFTR that has to be reached to achieve normal function. Achieving CFTR activity of 10 to 35% might be needed to prevent significant pulmonary morbidity. SUMMARY: It is as yet unknown how much corrected mutant CFTR must reach the apical membrane to induce a clinically relevant beneficial effect. The future goal is to maximize the effect of stop-codon supressors on CFTR while minimizing side effects, but further studies must be performed to find a safer compound that may be administered in small children from the time of diagnosis.

Nasal airway ion transport is linked to the cystic fibrosis phenotype in adult patients.
Thorax. 2004 Nov;59(11):971-6., [PMID:15516474]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: This study was conducted to determine whether the major nasal airway ion transport abnormalities in cystic fibrosis (that is, defective cAMP regulated chloride secretion and basal sodium hyperabsorption) are related to the clinical expression of cystic fibrosis and/or to the genotype. METHODS: Nasal potential difference was measured in 79 adult patients with cystic fibrosis for whom clinical status, respiratory function, and CFTR genotype were determined. RESULTS: In univariate and multivariate analysis, patients with pancreatic insufficiency were more likely to have low responses to low chloride (odds ratio (OR) 8.6 (95% CI 1.3 to 58.5), p = 0.03) and isoproterenol (OR 11.2 (95% CI 1.3 to 93.9), p = 0.03) solutions. Similarly, in univariate and multivariate analysis, patients with poor respiratory function (forced expiratory volume in 1 second <50% of predicted value) were more likely to have an enhanced response to amiloride solution (OR 3.7 (95% CI 1.3 to 11.0), p = 0.02). However, there was no significant relationship between nasal potential difference and the severity of the genotype. CONCLUSIONS: Nasal epithelial ion transport in cystic fibrosis is linked to the clinical expression of the disease. The pancreatic status appears to be mostly related to the defect in epithelial chloride secretion whereas the respiratory status is mostly related to abnormal sodium transport and the regulatory function of the CFTR protein.

A large-scale study of the random variability of a coding sequence: a study on the CFTR gene.
Eur J Hum Genet. 2005 Feb;13(2):184-92., [PMID:15536480]
Abstract [show]
Coding single nucleotide substitutions (cSNSs) have been studied on hundreds of genes using small samples (n(g) approximately 100-150 genes). In the present investigation, a large random European population sample (average n(g) approximately 1500) was studied for a single gene, the CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator). The nonsynonymous (NS) substitutions exhibited, in accordance with previous reports, a mean probability of being polymorphic (q > 0.005), much lower than that of the synonymous (S) substitutions, but they showed a similar rate of subpolymorphic (q < 0.005) variability. This indicates that, in autosomal genes that may have harmful recessive alleles (nonduplicated genes with important functions), genetic drift overwhelms selection in the subpolymorphic range of variability, making disadvantageous alleles behave as neutral. These results imply that the majority of the subpolymorphic nonsynonymous alleles of these genes are selectively negative or even pathogenic.

Thirty-seven unrelated Iranian CF families were screened for the presence of seven common mutations (DeltaF508, G542X, W1282X, G551D, N1303K, 1717-1G-->A, and 621-1G-->T) using ARMS PCR and exons 4 and 7 of the CFTR gene by SSCP method. This study resulted in the identification of 26.8 per cent of all CF alleles: DeltaF508 (16.2 per cent), W1282X (4 per cent), G542X (2.7 per cent), R117H (1.3 per cent), R347H (1.3 per cent), and A120T (1.3 per cent) mutations were detected. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first report of an Asian subject carrying the A120T mutation. Our findings suggest heterogeneity in the Iranian population, stressing the need to draw attention to sequence analysis in order to find population-specific mutations.

Abstract [show]
Although the median survival for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) is 32.9 years, a small group of patients live much longer. We analyzed the genotype and phenotype of CF patients 40 years and older seen between 1992 and 2004 at the National Jewish Medical and Research Center (n = 55). These patients were divided into two groups according to age at diagnosis: an early diagnosis (ED) group, median age at diagnosis 2.0 years (range 0.1-15 years, n = 28), and a late diagnosis (LD) group, median age of diagnosis 48.8 years (range 24-72.8 years, n = 27). Consistent with the hypothesis that the CFTR genotype affects the age at diagnosis, CFTR DeltaF508 homozygous individuals were more common in the ED group. Although patients in the ED group were predominantly male, the majority of LD patients were female. Patients with CF diagnosed late had a significantly lower prevalence of pancreatic insufficiency and CF-related diabetes, and better lung function. Fewer patients in the LD groups were infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, whereas a greater percentage had cultures positive for nontuberculous mycobacteria. This is the largest cohort of older patients with CF described to date, and our findings indicate that patients diagnosed as adults differ distinctly from survivors of long-term CF diagnosed as children.

Nat Struct Mol Biol. 2005 Jan;12(1):17-25. Epub 2004 Dec 26., [PMID:15619635]
Abstract [show]
Misfolding accounts for the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation of mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulators (CFTRs), including deletion of Phe508 (DeltaF508) in the nucleotide-binding domain 1 (NBD1). To study the role of Phe508, the de novo folding and stability of NBD1, NBD2 and CFTR were compared in conjunction with mutagenesis of Phe508. DeltaF508 and amino acid replacements that prevented CFTR folding disrupted the NBD2 fold and its native interaction with NBD1. DeltaF508 caused limited alteration in NBD1 conformation. Whereas nonpolar and some aliphatic residues were permissive, charged residues and glycine compromised the post-translational folding and stability of NBD2 and CFTR. The results suggest that hydrophobic side chain interactions of Phe508 are required for vectorial folding of NBD2 and the domain-domain assembly of CFTR, representing a combined co- and post-translational folding mechanism that may be used by other multidomain membrane proteins.

Comprehensive cystic fibrosis mutation epidemiology and haplotype characterization in a southern Italian population.
Ann Hum Genet. 2005 Jan;69(Pt 1):15-24., [PMID:15638824]
Abstract [show]
We screened the whole coding region of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene in 371 unrelated cystic fibrosis (CF) patients from three regions of southern Italy. Forty-three mutations detected 91.5% of CF mutated chromosomes by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analysis, and three intragenic CFTR polymorphisms predicted a myriad of rare mutations in uncharacterized CF chromosomes. Twelve mutations are peculiar to CF chromosomes from southern Italy: R1158X, 4016insT, L1065P and 711 + 1G > T are present in 6.3% of CF chromosomes in Campania; G1244E and 852del22 are present in 9.6% of CF chromosomes in Basilicata and 4382delA, 1259insA, I502T, 852del22, 4016insT, D579G, R1158X, L1077P and G1349D are frequent in Puglia (19.6% of CF alleles). Several mutations frequently found in northern Italy (e.g., R1162X, 711 + 5G > T) and northern Europe (e.g., G551D, I507del and 621 + 1G > T) are absent from the studied population. The I148T-3195del6 complex allele was present in two CF chromosomes, whereas I148T was present in both alleles (as a single mutation) in another CF patient and in five CF carriers; this could result from crossover events. The haplotype analysis of three intragenic polymorphisms (IVS8CA, IVS17bTA and IVS17bCA) compared with data from other studies revealed that several mutations (3849 + 10kbC > T, 1717-1G > A, E585X, 3272-26G > A, L558S, 2184insA and R347P) originated from multiple events, whereas others (R1158X and S549R) could be associated with one or more intragenic recombinant events. Given the large population migration from southern Italy, knowledge of the CF molecular epidemiology in this area is an important contribution to diagnosis, counselling and interlaboratory quality control for molecular laboratories worldwide.

Rational approach to genetic testing of cystic fibrosis (CF) in infertile men.
Andrologia. 2005 Feb;37(1):1-9., [PMID:15644056]
Abstract [show]
Male infertility as a result of isolated congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) is one primary genital form of cystic fibrosis (CF) and occurs in 1-2% of infertile men. Assisted fertilization in patients with CBAVD increases the risk of transmitting mutations in the CF gene. We developed a rational approach to genetic CF testing in infertile men. A total of 282 infertile male patients were screened for the most common CF mutations (DeltaF508, R117H, IVS8-5T). Clinical data including medical history, examination, semen analysis, sweat tests, karyotypes and hormonal values were analysed. We identified 23 patients carrying mutations in the CF gene (DeltaF508: 10 patients; R117H: six patients; IVS8-5T: 11 patients). Two patients were compound heterozygote for DeltaF508/R117H, two others for DeltaF508/IVS8-5T. Correlating these molecular analyses with the clinical data pertaining to serum follicle-stimulating hormone concentration, semen pH, sperm count and total testicular volume, we were able to develop a score with a high specificity (98.4) for the presence of a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutation, but only with a low sensitivity (positive post-test likelihood: 62.5%; negative post-test likelihood: 6.3%). With regard to the low sensitivity and the high number of CFTR mutations found in this heterogeneous group of infertile men, we still recommend genetic CF testing before assisted fertilization.

Systemic inflammatory mediators and cystic fibrosis genotype.

Abstract [show]
Morbidity and mortality in cystic fibrosis patients is mainly attributed to pulmonary infection and inflammation. Chemokines play a pivotal role in the inflammatory process. Although genotype-phenotype correlation in cystic fibrosis patients has been defined, a clear relationship between the defect in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene and pulmonary inflammation has not been established. The aim of this study was to assess whether serum chemokines levels in cystic fibrosis patients correlate with genotype and pulmonary function tests, as well as with other clinical characteristics. Serum levels of interleukin-8, RANTES, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 were measured in 36 cystic fibrosis patients grouped according to their genotype. Group A included 25 patients who carried two mutations associated with a pathological sweat test and pancreatic insufficiency (deltaF508, W1282X, G542X, N1303K, S549R). Group B included 11 compound heterozygote patients who carried one mutation known to cause mild disease with borderline or normal sweat test and pancreatic sufficiency (3849+10kb C to T, 5T). Associations between chemokine levels, genotype, pulmonary function, Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonization, age, sweat chloride level, and pancreatic and nutritional status were examined. Mean interleukin-8 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 levels were significantly higher in group A than group B (11.4 +/- 2.1 pg/ml vs. 5 +/- 0.9 pg/ml and 157 +/- 16 pg/ml vs. 88.8 +/- 16.4 pg/ml, respectively) (P < 0.01). No difference in RANTES levels were found between groups. interleukin-8 levels were inversely related to forced expiratory volume in 1 s (r = -0.37, P < 0.02), while there was no association between the latter and RANTES and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 levels. The Pseudomonas colonization rate was higher among group A patients than group B (88% vs. 40%, P < 0.01). No relationship was found between measured chemokines and age, sweat chloride levels, and pancreatic and nutritional status. Our study demonstrates an association between interleukin-8, forced expiratory volume, and cystic fibrosis genotype. Hence, elevated interleukin-8 serum levels could serve as an indicator of an early inflammatory process and encourage the initiation of anti-inflammatory treatment.

Abstract [show]
Newborn screening for cystic fibrosis has been used in Australia and New Zealand for over 20 years. In that time, considerable experience has been developed regarding the early diagnosis of cystic fibrosis after newborn screening. To date, there has not been a consensus on the process of screening and clinical evaluation leading to the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis in infants, many of whom are not symptomatic at time of notification of the screening result. The aim of this paper is to provide some consensus on the important issues of a cystic fibrosis diagnosis arising from newborn screening, based on the experience gained in Australia and New Zealand over the last 20 years.

Molecular pathology of the CFTR locus in male infertility.
Reprod Biomed Online. 2005 Jan;10(1):14-41., [PMID:15705292]
Abstract [show]
Congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) is a form of infertility with an autosomal recessive genetic background in otherwise healthy males. CBAVD is caused by cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutations on both alleles in approximately 80% of cases. Striking CFTR genotypic differences are observed in cystic fibrosis (CF) and in CBAVD. The 5T allele is a CBAVD mutation with incomplete penetrance. Recent evidence confirmed that a second polymorphic locus exists and is a major CFTR modifier. The development of minigene models have led to results suggesting that CFTR exon 9 is skipped in humans because of unusual suboptimal 5' splice sites. An extremely rare T3 allele has been reported and it has recently been confirmed that the T3 allele dramatically increases exon 9 skipping and should be considered as a 'CF' mutation. Routine testing for the most prevalent mutations in the CF Caucasian population will miss most CFTR gene alterations, which can be detected only through exhaustive scanning of CFTR sequences. Finally, a higher than expected frequency of CFTR mutations and/or polymorphisms is now found in a growing number of monosymptomatic disorders, which creates a dilemma for setting nosologic boundaries between CF and diseases related to CFTR.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by a mutation of the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). We examined platelet function in CF patients because lung inflammation is part of this disease and platelets contribute to inflammation. CF patients had increased circulating leukocyte-platelet aggregates and increased platelet responsiveness to agonists compared with healthy controls. CF plasma caused activation of normal and CF platelets; however, activation was greater in CF platelets. Furthermore, washed CF platelets also showed increased reactivity to agonists. CF platelet hyperreactivity was incompletely inhibited by prostaglandin E(1) (PGE(1)). As demonstrated by Western blotting and reverse-transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), there was neither CFTR nor CFTR-specific mRNA in normal platelets. There were abnormalities in the fatty acid composition of membrane fractions of CF platelets. In summary, CF patients have an increase in circulating activated platelets and platelet reactivity, as determined by monocyte-platelet aggregation, neutrophil-platelet aggregation, and platelet surface P-selectin. This increased platelet activation in CF is the result of both a plasma factor(s) and an intrinsic platelet mechanism via cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)/adenylate cyclase, but not via platelet CFTR. Our findings may account, at least in part, for the beneficial effects of ibuprofen in CF.

Abstract [show]
Studying subjects heterozygous for mutations of the cystic fibrosis (CF) gene may help clarify the impact on disease onset of CF transmembrane conductance regulator protein (CFTR-)-dependent chloride secretion. CFTR-mediated chloride transport was evaluated in 52 heterozygous subjects, 32 healthy control subjects, and 77 patients with CF with class I or II mutations. We measured the change in nasal potential difference in response to chloride-free isoproterenol solution for each subject and used a video-imaging fluorescent dye assay to assess the percentage of nasal ciliated cells with cAMP-dependent anion conductance. Our findings did not confirm the standard assumption that heterozygosity implies 50% of normal CFTR function. Half the heterozygous subjects had CFTR-mediated chloride transport levels below 50% of the normal range, and one-third had levels similar to those of the patients with CF. This reduced CFTR function was not associated with an elevated prevalence of CF-like symptoms in heterozygous subjects but was highly related to respiratory status in the patients with CF. These data suggest that CFTR-dependent chloride conductance does not directly modulate disease severity but may be part of a more global defect in patients with CF involving other CFTR functions or currently unknown modulatory factors.

Abstract [show]
We have screened 175 patients for molecular defects in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene using nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), and sequencing. Six different mutations (F508del, G542X, 621+1G --> T, 2789+5G --> A, R1070Q, and S466X) accounted for 79.71% of CF alleles, with the F508del mutation showing a frequency of 72.28%. Another 12 mutations (R334W, 2184insA, I507del, 1525-1G --> A, E585X, R75X, M1I, 457TAT --> G, 574delA, 2723delTT, A120T, and 2907delTT) covered an additional 3.36%. A novel mutation (2723delTT) was found in one CF patient (F508del/2723delTT). Thus, a total of 18 mutations cover 82.57% of CF alleles. During our study, 72% of families at risk for having a CF child were found to be fully informative for prenatal diagnosis. Prenatal diagnosis was performed on 56 families; 76 analyses resulting in 16 affected, 38 carriers, and 22 healthy fetuses. These results imply that the molecular basis of CF in Serbia and Montenegro is highly heterogeneous, as is observed in other eastern and southern European populations. Because we detected more then 80% of CFTR alleles, results could be used for planning future screening and appropriate genetic counseling programs in our country.

Abstract [show]
Most cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane receptor mutations are rare. The French CF Registry offers an opportunity to study the genotype-phenotype relationship of these rare alleles. Since 1992, 39 CF patients carrying one copy of the 3849+10kbC->T mutation and 88 the 2789+5G->A allele have been seen at least once in a CF care centre. Among them, 16 carrying the 3849+10kbC->T/Delta F508 genotype and 34 with the 2789+5G->A/Delta F508 genotype were seen in 2000. Their age at diagnosis, sweat chloride concentration, anthropometric and lung function results, and clinical aspects were compared with those homozygous for the Delta F508 mutation matched for sex, age and CF care centre. Major differences, most of them statistically significant, in the age at diagnosis, prevalence of pancreatic insufficiency, and other clinical signs, anthropometric and lung function measures were observed between both compound heterozygote groups and their matched Delta F508/Delta F508 groups. The mean sweat chloride concentration was also lower (close to normal values) among 3849+10kbC->T/Delta F508 patients, but not among 2789+5G->A/Delta F508 patients. In conclusion, both mutations studied here are associated with a milder course of cystic fibrosis disease. The 3849+10kbC->T and 2789+5G->A alleles are splice site mutations, leading to abnormal mRNA; however, a small amount of normally spliced transcripts can also be detected. The presence of these small amounts of normal cystic fibrosis transmembrane receptor protein in these cystic fibrosis patients is likely to be responsible for the milder severity of disease and a better life expectancy.

In most populations, an appreciable fraction of cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene mutations in patients affected by cystic fibrosis (CF) cannot be identified, and large gene rearrangements might be missed by standard analyses. We have searched large gene rearrangements in a sample of 25 North East Italian CF patients who, after an extensive gene analysis of 188 patients, still bear one or two unidentified CF mutations. A systematic gene screening by quantitative multiplex PCR of short fluorescent fragments was performed. Overall, 5/26 (19.2%) rearranged alleles were detected, bearing mutation 3120+1Kbdel8.6Kb (three patients), and c.4_IVS1+69del119bpins299bp (two patients). These mutations were observed in compound heterozygotes with F508del or termination mutations, and a pancreatic insufficient form of CF.

Abstract [show]
Idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (ICP) is the leading cause of chronic pancreatitis in children and nonalcoholic adults. The risk of developing ICP is increased in individuals who have mutations of the cystic fibrosis gene (CFTR) and of a trypsin inhibitor gene (PSTI). In studies from the United States and France, the risk of ICP is increased about 40-fold by having two abnormal copies of the CFTR gene, about 14-fold by having the N34S PSTI mutation, and about 500-fold by having both. When ICP patients have two abnormal copies of the CFTR gene, there is also evidence of reduced residual CFTR protein function in extrapancreatic tissues based on clinical findings and nasal ion transport responses. Thus, pancreatitis risk is highest in individuals who have abnormalities in both the pancreatic ducts (CFTR) and acini (PSTI). These findings indicate that PSTI is a modifier gene for CFTR-related ICP and have implications for the diagnosis and pathogenesis of pancreatitis.

Hum Mutat. 2005 Apr;25(4):360-71., [PMID:15776432]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is mainly caused by mutations that interfere with the biosynthetic folding of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) chloride channel. The aim of this study was to determine the mechanism of dysfunction of a disease-causing mutation associated with variable phenotypes. In order to attain these objectives, we studied the effect of the p.L206W mutation on CFTR protein production and function, and we examined the genotype-phenotype correlation of [p.L206W]+[p.F508del] patients. We showed that p.L206W is a processing (class II) mutation since the CFTR biosynthetic pathway was severely impaired, whereas single-channel measurements indicated ion conductance similar to the wild-type protein. These data raise the larger question of the phenotypic variability of class II mutants, including p.F508del. Since multiple potential partners could modify the processing of the CFTR protein during its course to the cell surface, environmental and other genetic factors might contribute to this variability.

Increased prevalence of chronic rhinosinusitis in carriers of a cystic fibrosis mutation.
Arch Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg. 2005 Mar;131(3):237-40., [PMID:15781764]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To explore whether there is an increased prevalence of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in known cystic fibrosis (CF) carriers. Self-reported CRS affects 13% to 14% of the US population and clusters in families, which suggests that genetic factors may play an etiologic role. Cystic fibrosis is an inherited recessive disorder that invariably affects the sinuses. The frequency of CF mutations has been reported to be higher in patients with CRS than in unaffected controls. PATIENTS: Obligate CF carriers (parents of patients with CF) were recruited from the Johns Hopkins CF clinic. The presence of signs and symptoms of CRS was assessed by a sinus disease questionnaire. A subgroup of participants was evaluated by a physician experienced in the diagnosis of CRS. RESULTS: Fifty-three (36%) of 147 obligate CF carriers who returned a completed questionnaire had self-reported CRS. Twenty-three CF carriers (14 with and 9 without CRS based on self-reporting in the questionnaire) were clinically evaluated. Seven were diagnosed as having CRS (all 7 with self-reported CRS), while another 6 had allergic rhinitis or recurrent acute rhinosinusitis (all 6 with self-reported CRS), and 10 had no evidence of active sinus disease (1 with self-reported CRS). The sensitivity (100%) and specificity (56%) of the questionnaire for physician-diagnosed CRS was similar to that of other survey instruments used to estimate the prevalence of self-reported CRS in the general population. CONCLUSION: Carriers of a single CF mutation have a higher prevalence of CRS than the general population.

Lack of association of common cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutations with primary sclerosing cholangitis.
Am J Gastroenterol. 2005 Apr;100(4):874-8., [PMID:15784035]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic progressive cholestatic liver disease of uncertain etiology. However, the histologic features of PSC liver disease can resemble those in cystic fibrosis (CF), an inherited disorder caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. We sought to determine if PSC patients have a higher frequency of common CF alleles than disease controls. METHODS: DNA was extracted from peripheral lymphocytes of patients with end-stage liver disease. Samples were obtained before liver transplantation from 59 PSC patients and from three groups of control patients (20 each with primary biliary cirrhosis, autoimmune hepatitis, or hepatitis C). DNA samples were genotyped for 32 common CF mutations, the intron 8 T tract variants, and the M470V variant. RESULTS: One of 59 PSC patients (1.7%) had the common CF mutation (DeltaF508) in one CFTR gene. Two controls (3.3%) carried a single CF mutation (DeltaF508 in one primary biliary cirrhosis patient; W1282X in one hepatitis C patient). These rates do not differ from expected in the general population. The frequency of CFTR variants (5T and M470V) was also similar between PSC patients and controls. CONCLUSIONS: Despite anatomical similarities between CF liver disease and PSC, we could not confirm that PSC patients carried common CF mutations or common CFTR variants in higher than expected frequencies. These data suggest that CFTR dysfunction does not influence the pathogenesis of PSC.

Cystic fibrosis prenatal screening in genetic counseling practice: recommendations of the National Society of Genetic Counselors.
J Genet Couns. 2005 Feb;14(1):1-15., [PMID:15789152]
Abstract [show]
For over a decade, prenatal screening for cystic fibrosis (CF) has been considered a model for the integration of genetic testing into routine medical practice. Data from pilot studies and public policy discourse have led to recommendations by some professional organizations that CF screening should be offered or made available to pregnant women and their partners, and to couples planning a pregnancy. It is crucial that genetic counselors gain thorough understanding of the complexities of CF and the implications of positive test results, so that they may serve as a reliable, educated referral base and resource for health care providers and their patients. While not all pregnant women will be referred for genetic counseling prior to CF carrier testing, genetic counselors often will be asked to counsel clients after they have a positive test result, or who are found to be at increased risk. Genetic counselors can play an important role in providing accurate and current information as well as support for patients' informed decisions. These recommendations were created by a multicenter working group of genetic counselors with expertise in CF and are based on personal clinical experience, review of pertinent English language medical articles, and reports of expert committees. The recommendations should not be construed as dictating an exclusive course of management, nor does the use of such recommendations guarantee a particular outcome. These recommendations do not displace a health care provider's professional judgment based on the clinical circumstances of a particular client.

Abstract [show]
Following cystic fibrosis (CF) neonatal screening implementation, a high frequency of heterozygotes has been reported among neonates with elevated immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) and normal sweat chloride levels. We studied the relationship between normal IRT values and CF heterozygosity: 10,000 neonates were screened for CF by IRT measurement and tested for 40 CF mutations; the 294 carriers detected were coupled with newborns negative to the same genetic testing, and the two groups' IRT levels compared. Heterozygotes had higher IRT levels than their controls (mean 35.32 vs. 27.58 microg/L, P<0.001). Even within normal trypsinogen range, the probability of being a CF carrier increases with neonatal IRT concentration.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: A dramatic increase in requests for routine cystic fibrosis (CF) carrier screening prompted us to conduct a time-motion analysis comparing commercially available CF testing platforms. Questions addressed in the study included: (a) How much time is required to perform each step involved in carrying out the assay procedure? (b) Which system requires the minimum number of manual manipulations to complete a typical run? (c) What workflow benefits can be achieved by automation? METHODS: We used a 96-sample run for comparisons and analyzed each of the 6 methods to determine the number of pipetting steps and manual manipulations, the labor and instrument time, and the total time required to perform the assay. The survey participants included a staff of 4 technologists who perform complex molecular assays regularly. Time required for each procedure was determined by direct observation and from work logs completed by the technologists. RESULTS: The total number of pipetting motions varied from 78 to 344. Labor time ranged from 2.6 to 8.4 h, and total assay time from 7.6 to 13.7 h. CONCLUSION: Time-motion analysis allowed identification of a method that minimized pipetting motions and thus reduced the risk of repetitive stress injury.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multiorgan disease caused by mutation of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Obstructive lung disease is the predominant cause of morbidity and mortality; thus, most efforts to improve outcomes are directed toward slowing or halting lung-disease progression. Current therapies, such as mucolytics, airway clearance techniques, bronchodilators, and antibiotics, aim to suppress airway inflammation and the processes that stimulate it, namely, retention and infection of mucus plaques at the airway surface. New approaches to therapy that aim to ameliorate specific CFTR mutations or mutational classes by restoring normal expression or function are being investigated. Because of its sensitivity in detecting changes associated with early airway obstruction and regional lung disease, high-resolution CT (HRCT) complements pulmonary function testing in defining disease natural history and measuring response to both conventional and experimental therapies. In this review, perspectives on the genetics and microbiology of CF provide a context for understanding the increasing importance of HRCT and other imaging techniques in assessing CF therapies.

Abstract [show]
Genetic testing of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance (CFTR) gene is currently performed in couples undergoing assisted reproduction techniques (ART), because of the high prevalence of healthy carriers in the population and the pathogenic relationship with congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens (CBAVD). However, discordant data have been reported concerning the usefulness of this genetic test in couples with no family history of cystic fibrosis (CF). In this study, we report the results of CFTR molecular screening in 1195 couples entering ART. Genetic testing was initially carried out in a single partner of each couple. CFTR mutations were detected in 55 subjects (4.6%), a percentage that overlaps with the one reported in the general population. However, significantly higher frequencies of were found in CBAVD individuals (37.5%) and in males with nonobstructive azoospermia (6.6%). The 5T allele was found in 78 patients (6.5%). This figure was again significantly different in males with nonobstructive-azoospermia (9.9%) and in those with CBAVD (100%). All together, 139 subjects (11.6%) had either a CFTR mutation or the 5T allele. Subsequent molecular analysis of their partners disclosed a CFTR mutation or 5T allele in nine cases (6.5%). However, none of these couples had CFTR alterations in both members, a CFTR mutation being invariably present in one partner and the 5T allele in the other. In order to improve genetic counselling of these couples, the TG-M470V-5T association was analyzed, and a statistically significant relationship between 12TG-V470 and CBAVD was detected.

Pharmacological induction of CFTR function in patients with cystic fibrosis: mutation-specific therapy.
Pediatr Pulmonol. 2005 Sep;40(3):183-96., [PMID:15880796]
Abstract [show]
CFTR mutations cause defects of CFTR protein production and function by different molecular mechanisms. Mutations can be classified according to the mechanisms by which they disrupt CFTR function. This understanding of the different molecular mechanisms of CFTR dysfunction provides the scientific basis for the development of targeted drugs for mutation-specific therapy of cystic fibrosis (CF). Class I mutations are nonsense mutations that result in the presence of a premature stop codon that leads to the production of unstable mRNA, or the release from the ribosome of a short, truncated protein that is not functional. Aminoglycoside antibiotics can suppress premature termination codons by disrupting translational fidelity and allowing the incorporation of an amino acid, thus permitting translation to continue to the normal termination of the transcript. Class II mutations cause impairment of CFTR processing and folding in the Golgi. As a result, the mutant CFTR is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and eventually targeted for degradation by the quality control mechanisms. Chemical and molecular chaperones such as sodium-4-phenylbutyrate can stabilize protein structure, and allow it to escape from degradation in the ER and be transported to the cell membrane. Class III mutations disrupt the function of the regulatory domain. CFTR is resistant to phosphorylation or adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) binding. CFTR activators such as alkylxanthines (CPX) and the flavonoid genistein can overcome affected ATP binding through direct binding to a nucleotide binding fold. In patients carrying class IV mutations, phosphorylation of CFTR results in reduced chloride transport. Increases in the overall cell surface content of these mutants might overcome the relative reduction in conductance. Alternatively, restoring native chloride pore characteristics pharmacologically might be effective. Activators of CFTR at the plasma membrane may function by promoting CFTR phosphorylation, by blocking CFTR dephosphorylation, by interacting directly with CFTR, and/or by modulation of CFTR protein-protein interactions. Class V mutations affect the splicing machinery and generate both aberrantly and correctly spliced transcripts, the levels of which vary among different patients and among different organs of the same patient. Splicing factors that promote exon inclusion or factors that promote exon skipping can promote increases of correctly spliced transcripts, depending on the molecular defect. Inconsistent results were reported regarding the required level of corrected or mutated CFTR that had to be reached in order to achieve normal function.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Cystic fibrosis results from disruption of the biosynthesis or function of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator plays a critical role in the regulation of epithelial ion transport. Restoration of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator function should improve the cystic fibrosis phenotype. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent investigations affording a better understanding of the mechanism of dysfunction of mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulators, as well as the roles of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator in regulating epithelial ion transport, have led to development of therapeutic strategies based on repair or bypass of mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator dysfunction. The former strategy, coined 'protein repair therapy,' is aimed at improving or restoring the function of mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulators, whereas the latter approach aims to augment epithelial ion transport to compensate for the absent function mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator. SUMMARY: Strategies to improve mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator function or to bypass mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator function hold great promise for development of novel therapies aimed at correcting the underlying pathophysiology of cystic fibrosis.

Abstract [show]
PGD is becoming an alternative to prenatal diagnosis. The combination of IVF techniques with the PCR technology allows for the detection of genetic abnormalities in first polar bodies from oocytes and blastomeres from cleavage-stage embryos. Dealing with a genetic disease with a heterogeneous spectrum of mutations like cystic fibrosis, one of the objectives of centres offering PGD is the application of simple and efficient protocols that allow for the detection of a wide range of mutations with a single procedure. In the present work, 29 normal loci and the 31 most frequent cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations in Southern Europe could be detected at the same time in single cells applying a modified and improved primer extension preamplification-PCR. Two different Taq polymerases were tested in isolated buccal cells heterozygous for several mutations. The protocol that gave statistically significant better results was also successful in oocytes and their first polar bodies.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: Although neonatal screening (or newborn screening) for cystic fibrosis (CF) is commonly practiced, systematic methods for accurate risk calculations are currently lacking. METHODS AND RESULTS: We evaluated characteristics of the immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) test using the published data. The probability that a neonate has a positive IRT test, if the neonate is affected, a carrier, or a noncarrier, is approximately 1, 0.041, or 0.011, respectively. We provide methods to calculate genetic risks for a variety of commonly encountered scenarios in which neonates are positive by the IRT test. CONCLUSION: Our Bayesian methods permit CF disease probabilities to be calculated accurately, taking into account all relevant information.

Abstract [show]
We have tested 144 unrelated Jewish patients suffering from the classical form of cystic fibrosis. The patients were screened for a panel of 12 mutations including the six Ashkenazi founder mutations (DeltaF508, W1282X, N1303K, G542X, 3849 + 10 kb C-->T, 1717-1G > A) and six mutations that were found in non-Ashkenazi Jewish patients (S549R (T-->G), G85E, 405 + 1G-->A, W1089X, Y1092, and D1152H). Patients of Georgian origin were tested also for the Q359K/T360K mutation. In addition, all the patients were tested for the IVS-8 variant (9T/7T/5T). Of all the cystic fibrosis (CF)-bearing chromosomes, 94% (264/281) were accounted for by one of the known mutations, and none of the patients had the 5T allele of the IVS-8 variant. Single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis of the coding sequence of the CFTR gene followed by sequencing showed eight mutations on ten CF chromosomes, leaving seven chromosomes (2.5%) with unknown mutations. We identified three mutations in two or more CF chromosomes, 2571 + 1insT in Jews from Iraq, 3121-1G > A in patients from Kurdistan and I1234V in Yemenite Jewish patients. The other five mutations appeared on a single allele and are considered "private mutations." In this study we have identified 99% of CF alleles in Ashkenazi Jewish patients, 91% in Jews of North African origin and 75% in Jewish patients from Iraq. The significance of these findings to the population screening in Israel is discussed.

The prevalence and clinical characteristics of cystic fibrosis in South Asian Canadian immigrants.
Arch Dis Child. 2005 Jul;90(7):675-9., [PMID:15970608]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is considered to be rare among individuals from the Indian subcontinent. Furthermore, affected individuals are reported to experience a more severe clinical course. AIMS: It was hypothesised that CF is under diagnosed in people of South Asian origin and therefore the prevalence may be higher than previously estimated. METHODS: The prevalence of CF in the South Asian and in the general population living in the same geographic region (Metropolitan Toronto) were compared between 1996 and 2001. Population data were obtained from the Canadian census survey. CF phenotype and genotype data were obtained from the Toronto CF database. RESULTS: Among 381 patients with CF, 15 were of South Asian descent. The age related prevalence of CF among the South Asian and general populations was: 0-14 years, 1:9200 versus 1:6600; 15-24 years, 1:13,200 versus 1:7600; older than 25 years, 1:56,600 versus 1:12,400. Age at diagnosis, duration and severity of symptoms at diagnosis, current nutritional status, and FEV(1) were similar in the two groups. While not significant, FEV1 tended to be lower (48% versus 57% predicted) among adult South Asians, compared to the general CF population. Also, the percentage with pancreatic sufficiency was higher (27% versus 16%) and the frequency of DeltaF508 allele was lower (50% versus 65.1%). CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that the prevalence and natural history of CF in South Asians is similar to that among individuals of European origin. The relatively lower prevalence among older South Asians may reflect an improving recognition of CF in this ethnic subgroup.

Genotype-phenotype correlation for pulmonary function in cystic fibrosis.
Thorax. 2005 Jul;60(7):558-63., [PMID:15994263]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Since the CFTR gene was cloned, more than 1000 mutations have been identified. To date, a clear relationship has not been established between genotype and the progression of lung damage. A study was undertaken of the relationship between genotype, progression of lung disease, and survival in adult patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). METHODS: A prospective cohort of adult patients with CF and two CFTR mutations followed up in an adult cystic fibrosis unit was analysed. Patients were classified according to functional effects of classes of CFTR mutations and were grouped based on the CFTR molecular position on the epithelial cell surface (I-II/I-II, I-II/III-V). Spirometric values, progression of lung disease, probability of survival, and clinical characteristics were analysed between groups. RESULTS: Seventy four patients were included in the study. Patients with genotype I-II/I-II had significantly lower current spirometric values (p < 0.001), greater loss of pulmonary function (p < 0.04), a higher proportion of end-stage lung disease (p < 0.001), a higher risk of suffering from moderate to severe lung disease (odds ratio 7.12 (95% CI 1.3 to 40.5)) and a lower probability of survival than patients with genotype I-II/III, I-II/IV and I-II/V (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The presence of class I or II mutations on both chromosomes is associated with worse respiratory disease and a lower probability of survival.

Abstract [show]
Nasal polyps, a chronic inflammatory disease occurring in the nose and para-nasal sinuses, result from several different causes, including cystic fibrosis (CF). Forty-four patients affected by nasal polyps were admitted to the Department of Otolaryngology, Lublin University School of Medicine, Lublin, Poland, and screened for the most-commonly identified CFTR mutations [DeltaF508, G542X, N1303 K, 1717-1 (G to A), W1282X, G551D, R553X and DeltaI507] by applying the INNO-LIPA CF2 test strips. None of the patients had symptoms that allowed for the diagnosis of CF, including the negative sweat test. We detected 5 of 44 (11.4%) carriers of the CFTR mutations. All patients positive for this test were heterozygous carriers of DeltaF508. In the control group, only 1 of 70 (1.4%) cases showed DeltaF508 heterozygosity. The frequency of DeltaF508 mutation herein reported was significantly higher than in the control group (P = 0.0312) and in the general Polish population as well (P = 0.0059). Our data suggest that a heterozygous manifestation of the DeltaF508 may exist in a selected group of patients affected by nasal polyps, who have no other clinical features of CF.

Genetics of cystic fibrosis.
Semin Respir Crit Care Med. 2003 Dec;24(6):629-38., [PMID:16088579]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, which encodes a protein expressed in the apical membrane of exocrine epithelial cells. CFTR functions principally as a cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-induced chloride channel and appears capable of regulating other ion channels. Mutations affect CFTR through a variety of molecular mechanisms, which can produce little or no functional gene product at the apical membrane. More than 1000 different disease-causing mutations within the CFTR gene have been described. The potential of a mutation to contribute to the phenotype depends on its type, localization in the gene, and the molecular mechanism as well as on interactions with secondary modifying factors. Genetic testing can confirm a clinical diagnosis of CF and can be used for infants with meconium ileus, for carrier detection in individuals with positive family history and partners of proven CF carriers, and for prenatal diagnostic testing if both parents are carriers. Studies of clinical phenotype in correlation with CFTR genotype have revealed a very complex relationship demonstrating that some phenotypic features are closely determined by the underlying mutations, whereas others are modulated by modifier genes, epigenetic mechanisms, and environment.

Intracellular chloride channels: critical mediators of cell viability and potential targets for cancer therapy.
Curr Pharm Des. 2005;11(21):2753-64., [PMID:16101453]
Abstract [show]
The passage of ions to form and maintain electrochemical gradients is a key element for regulating cellular activities and is dependent on specific channel proteins or complexes. Certain ion channels have been the targets of pharmaceuticals that have had impact on a variety of cardiovascular and neurological diseases. Chloride channels regulate the movement of a major cellular anion, and in so doing they in part determine cell membrane potential, modify transepithelial transport, and maintain intracellular pH and cell volume. There are multiple families of chloride channel proteins, and respiratory, neuromuscular, and renal dysfunction may result from mutations in specific family members. Interest in chloride channels related to cancer first arose when the multidrug resistance protein (MDR/P-glycoprotein) was linked to volume-activated chloride channel activity in cancer cells from patients undergoing chemotherapy. More recently, CLC, CLIC, and CLCA intracellular chloride channels have been recognized for their contributions in modifying cell cycle, apoptosis, cell adhesion, and cell motility. Moreover, advances in structural biology and high-throughput screening provide a platform to identify chemical compounds that modulate the activities of intracellular chloride channels thereby influencing chloride ion transport and altering cell behavior. This review will focus on several chloride channel families that may contribute to the cancer phenotype and suggest how they may serve as novel targets for primary cancer therapy.

Annu Rev Genomics Hum Genet. 2005;6:237-60., [PMID:16124861]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common lethal autosomal recessive disorder in the Caucasian population, affecting about 30,000 individuals in the United States. The gene responsible for CF, the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), was identified 15 years ago. Substantial variation in the many aspects of the CF phenotype among individuals with the same CFTR genotype demonstrates that factors independent of CFTR exert considerable influence on outcome in CF. To date, the majority of published studies investigating the cause of disease variability in CF report associations between candidate genes and some aspect of the CF phenotype. However, a definitive modifier gene for CF remains to be identified. Despite the challenges posed by searches for modifier effects, studies of affected twins and siblings indicate that genetic factors play a substantial role in intestinal manifestations. Identifying the factors contributing to variation in pulmonary disease, the primary cause of mortality, remains a challenge for CF research.

Mol Hum Reprod. 2005 Aug;11(8):607-14. Epub 2005 Aug 26., [PMID:16126774]
Abstract [show]
Human infertility in relation to mutations affecting the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene has been investigated by different authors. The role of additional variants, such as the possible forms of the thymidine allele (5T, 7T and 9T) of the acceptor splice site of intron 8, has in some instances been considered. However, a large-scale analysis of the CFTR gene and number of thymidine residues, alone and in combination, in the two sexes had not yet been addressed. This was the aim of this study. Two groups were compared, a control group of 20,532 subjects being screened for perspective reproduction, and the patient group represented by 1854 idiopathically infertile cases. Analyses involved PCR-based CFTR mutations assessment, reverse dot-blot IVS8-T polymorphism analyses, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and DNA sequencing. The expected 5T increase in infertile men was predominantly owing to the 5/9 genotypic class. The intrinsic rate of 5T fluctuated only slightly among groups, but some gender-related differences arose when comparing their association. Infertile men showed a significantly enriched 5T + CFTR mutation co-presence, distributed in the 5/9 and 5/7 classes. In contrast, females, from both the control and the infertile groups, showed a trend towards a pronounced reduction of such association. The statistical significance of the difference between expected and observed double occurrence of 5T + CFTR traits in women suggests, in line with other reports in the literature, a possible survival-hampering effect. Moreover, regardless of the 5T status, CFTR mutations appear not to be involved in female infertility. These results underline the importance of (i) assessing large sample populations and (ii) considering separately the two genders, whose genotypically opposite correlations with these phenomena may otherwise tend to mask each other.

Combining immunoreactive trypsinogen and pancreatitis-associated protein assays, a method of newborn screening for cystic fibrosis that avoids DNA analysis.
J Pediatr. 2005 Sep;147(3):302-5., [PMID:16182665]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the performance of a strategy in which, after immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) determination, genetic analysis is replaced by a biological test, the pancreatitis-associated protein (PAP) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). STUDY DESIGN: The French newborn screening program includes cystic fibrosis (CF) screening by the IRT/CFTR mutation strategy. PAP was assayed on screening cards, in parallel with IRT, in all newborns from 5 French regions (n = 204,749). Analysis of PAP values in CF and non-CF newborns with elevated IRT allowed direct comparison between the current strategy and the proposed IRT/PAP strategy. RESULTS: A protocol in which newborns with IRT >50 ng/mL and PAP >1.8 ng/mL and those with IRT >100 ng/mL and PAP >1.0 ng/mL are directly recalled for sweat testing would have the same performance as the IRT/CFTR mutation strategy. CONCLUSIONS: The IRT/PAP strategy is an alternative for CF newborn screening, which avoids the drawbacks of genetic analysis and is cheaper and easier to implement than the current IRT/CFTR mutation strategy.

High-resolution melting analysis (HRMA) was compared with denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (dHPLC) for mutation scanning of common mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene. We amplified (polymerase chain reaction under conditions optimized for melting analysis or dHPLC) 26 previously genotyped samples with mutations in exons 3, 4, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 17b, and 21, including 20 different genotypes. Heterozygous mutations were detected by a change in shape of the melting curve or dHPLC tracing. All 20 samples with heterozygous mutations studied by both techniques were identified correctly by melting (100% sensitivity), and 19 were identified by dHPLC (95% sensitivity). The specificity of both methods also was good, although the dHPLC traces of exon 7 consistently revealed 2 peaks for wild-type samples, risking false-positive interpretation. Homozygous mutations could not be detected using curve shape by either method. However, when the absolute temperatures of HRMA were considered, G542X but not F508del homozygotes could be distinguished from wild type. HRMA easily detected heterozygotes in all single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) classes (including A/T SNPs) and 1- or 2-base-pair deletions. HRMA had better sensitivity and specificity than dHPLC with the added advantage that some homozygous sequence alterations could be identified. HRMA has great potential for rapid, closed-tube mutation scanning.

Newborn screening for cystic fibrosis in Wisconsin: nine-year experience with routine trypsinogen/DNA testing.
J Pediatr. 2005 Sep;147(3 Suppl):S73-7., [PMID:16202788]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To describe the development and follow-up confirmatory results of the routine cystic fibrosis (CF) newborn screening (NBS) program in Wisconsin. METHODS: CF NBS has been performed on a routine clinical basis in Wisconsin since July 1994. The 2-tiered immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT)/DNA technique was used on dried blood on filter paper spots. From July 1994 to February 2002, mutation analysis was for the DeltaF508 allele. Beginning in March 2002, multimutation analysis of 25 CF mutations was performed. Infants with a positive result on NBS were seen in certified CF centers for sweat testing by means of quantitative pilocarpine iontophoresis, and families received genetic counseling. RESULTS: From July 1994 to February 2002, there were 120 cases of CF detected by means of NBS (509,794 infants screened), with 53 DeltaF508 homozygotes and 67 compound heterozygotes. There were 8 clinically diagnosed cases of CF (no DeltaF508 allele). The CF incidence was 1:3983 (95%CI, 1:3373-1:4774). From March 2002 to June 2003, multimutation analysis identified 21 cases of classic CF (90,142 infants screened). Sweat tests were successfully performed in infants younger than 1 month. CONCLUSIONS: Early diagnosis of CF through NBS was successfully performed, with an estimated sensitivity rate of 99% using the IRT/25 CFTR multimutation assay.

Hyperacidity of secreted fluid from submucosal glands in early cystic fibrosis.
Am J Physiol Cell Physiol. 2006 Mar;290(3):C741-9. Epub 2005 Oct 5., [PMID:16207791]
Abstract [show]
Prior studies have shown that fluid secretions from airway submucosal glands in cystic fibrosis (CF) are reduced and hyperviscous, possibly contributing to the pathogenesis of CF airway disease. Because the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein can transport both chloride and bicarbonate, we investigated whether gland fluid pH is abnormal in early CF, using nasal biopsies from pediatric subjects having minimal CF lung disease. Gland fluid pH, measured in freshly secreted droplets under oil stained with BCECF-dextran, was 6.57 +/- 0.09 (mean +/- SE) in biopsies from six CF subjects, significantly lower than 7.18 +/- 0.06 in eight non-CF biopsies (P < 0.01). To rule out the possibility that the apparent gland fluid hyperacidity in CF results from modification of fluid pH by the airway surface, a microcannulation method was used to measure pH in fluid exiting gland orifices. In pig trachea and human bronchi, gland fluid pH was reduced by up to 0.45 units by CFTR inhibitors, but was not affected by amiloride. Acid base transport in the surface epithelium of pig trachea was studied from pH changes in 300-nl fluid droplets deposited onto the oil-covered airway surface. The droplets had specified ionic composition/pH and/or contained transporter activators/inhibitors. We found evidence for CFTR-dependent bicarbonate transport by the tracheal surface epithelium as well as ATP/histamine-stimulated proton secretion, but not for sodium/proton or chloride/bicarbonate exchange. These results provide evidence for intrinsic hyperacidity in CF gland fluid secretions, which may contribute to CF airway pathology.

Abstract [show]
AIMS: To investigate the immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) values above the usual 99th centile laboratory cut-off and determine the value of offering further testing to those infants with a markedly elevated IRT but no cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene mutation identified by the screening programme. METHODS: All babies born in Victoria, Australia, between 1991 and 2003, were screened by IRT followed by CF gene mutation analysis. RESULTS: Of the 806,520 babies born, 9268 with the highest IRT levels had CFTR mutation analysis. There were 123 DeltaF508 homozygotes and 703 heterozygotes (86 with CF, 617 carriers). A total of 8442 babies had no CFTR gene mutation, of whom 18 (0.21%) had CF. The total number of CF babies with IRT greater than the laboratory cut-off was 227 (2.4%). The IRT results of the CF patients were distributed normally, with the majority above the laboratory cut-off of newborn IRT results. There was no evidence of an excess of babies with CF in the very highest levels of IRT above the 99th centile. CONCLUSIONS: Only a small proportion of babies with a neonatal IRT >99th centile have CF. Additional CF testing for infants with an elevated IRT but no CFTR gene mutation has an extremely low yield, no matter how high the IRT result.

Haplotype block structure study of the CFTR gene. Most variants are associated with the M470 allele in several European populations.
Eur J Hum Genet. 2006 Jan;14(1):85-93., [PMID:16251901]
Abstract [show]
An average of about 1700 CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) alleles from normal individuals from different European populations were extensively screened for DNA sequence variation. A total of 80 variants were observed: 61 coding SNSs (results already published), 13 noncoding SNSs, three STRs, two short deletions, and one nucleotide insertion. Eight DNA variants were classified as non-CF causing due to their high frequency of occurrence. Through this survey the CFTR has become the most exhaustively studied gene for its coding sequence variability and, though to a lesser extent, for its noncoding sequence variability as well. Interestingly, most variation was associated with the M470 allele, while the V470 allele showed an 'extended haplotype homozygosity' (EHH). These findings make us suggest a role for selection acting either on the M470V itself or through an hitchhiking mechanism involving a second site. The possible ancient origin of the V allele in an 'out of Africa' time frame is discussed.

Mutations of the CFTR gene in idiopathic pancreatic hyperenzymemia.
Pancreas. 2005 Nov;31(4):350-2., [PMID:16258369]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: Idiopathic pancreatic hyperenzymemia is a new syndrome that is characterized by a chronic increase of serum pancreatic enzymes in the absence of pancreatic disease. The aim of this study was to assess whether mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene may have a role in the etiology of this hyperenzymemia. METHODS: Seventy subjects with idiopathic pancreatic hyperenzymemia, 44 men and 26 women (mean age, 48 years; range, 8-74 years), were studied. Thirteen of these 70 subjects had the familial form of the syndrome. The mutation analysis of the CFTR gene was carried out using diagnostic commercial kits for the simultaneous detection of 29 mutations and Tn polymorphism. RESULTS: Among the 70 subjects studied, 7 (10.0%) had CFTR gene mutations. None of these 7 subjects had the familial form of pancreatic hyperenzymemia. These mutations were DeltaF 508 in 1 subject, 2789 + 5 G > A in another subject, and T5 allele in the remaining 5. All these mutations were heterozygous, with the exception of 1 T5 allele that was homozygous in 1 subject. CONCLUSIONS: The frequencies of the mutations of the CFTR gene found in these subjects are similar to the carrier frequencies in the general Italian population. This finding does not support a role for CFTR gene mutations in the etiology of idiopathic pancreatic hyperenzymemia.

Abstract [show]
Persistent presence of PMN in airways is the hallmark of CF. Our aim was to assess PMN adherence, percentage of apoptotic airway PMN (aPMN), and IL-6 and IL-8 production when aPMN are in contact with airway epithelial cells. Before coculture, freshly isolated CF aPMN have greater spontaneous and TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis compared with blood PMN from the same CF patients and from aPMN of non-CF patients. We then examined cocultures of PMN isolated from CF and non-CF airways with bronchial epithelial cells bearing mutated cftr compared with cftr-corrected bronchial epithelial cells. After 18-h coculture, the number of CF aPMN adhered on cftr-deficient bronchial epithelial cells was 2.3-fold higher compared with the coculture of non-CF aPMN adhered on cftr-corrected bronchial epithelial cells. The percentage of CF apoptotic aPMN (9.5 +/- 0.2%) adhered on cftr-deficient bronchial epithelial cells was similar to the percentage of non-CF apoptotic aPMN adhered on cftr-corrected bronchial epithelial cells (10.3 +/- 0.7%). IL-6 and IL-8 levels were enhanced 6.5- and 2.9-fold, respectively, in coculture of CF aPMN adhered on cftr-deficient bronchial epithelial cells compared with coculture of non-CF aPMN adhered on cftr-corrected bronchial epithelial cells. Moreover, blocking surface adhesion molecules ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and E-selectin on cftr-deficient bronchial epithelial cells with specific MAbs inhibited the adherence of CF aPMN by 64, 51, and 50%, respectively. Our data suggest that in CF patients a high number of nonapoptotic PMN adhered on airway epithelium associated with elevated IL-6 and IL-8 levels may contribute to sustained and exaggerated inflammatory response in CF airways.

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutations in infertile males with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens.
Tohoku J Exp Med. 2005 Dec;207(4):279-85., [PMID:16272798]
Abstract [show]
Congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) is characterized by azoospermia and male infertility. Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene are associated with cystic fibrosis (CF), the most common autosomal recessive disorder in Caucasians. Recent publications on CBAVD raised the question whether CFTR gene mutations are responsible for CBAVD occurrence or not. This study was conducted to explore the role of CFTR gene mutations in the occurrence of CBAVD-dependent male infertility. Forty-four chromosomes of 22 CBAVD patients from Austrian ancestry were studied. For detection of the most common mutation DeltaF508, a deletion of phenylalanine at the 508th position of mature CFTR chloride channel protein, the 10th exon of the gene was screened by heteroduplex analysis. In order to identify non-DeltaF508 mutations, we also analyzed the entire coding regions, exon/intron boundaries of 27 exons and the 5'- and 3'-untranslated regions of the gene by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) after polymerase chain reaction. All exons showing different banding patterns on the DGGE gels were sequenced to define existing DNA sequence variations. Among the analyzed 44 chromosomes of 22 patients, disease producing mutations were found in 31.8% (14/44). The most common mutation was DeltaF508 with a frequency of 43% (6/14), followed by R117H with 29% (4/14). Our results indicate that CFTR gene mutations are common but not the only reason for the occurrence of CBAVD-dependent male infertility. We recommend screening of the CFTR gene in these patients.

Abstract [show]
AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) is a ubiquitous metabolic sensor that inhibits the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). To determine whether CFTR reciprocally regulates AMPK function in airway epithelia and whether such regulation is involved in lung inflammation, AMPK localization, expression, and activity and cellular metabolic profiles were compared as a function of CFTR status in CF and non-CF primary human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells. As compared with non-CF HBE cells, CF cells had greater and more diffuse AMPK staining and had greater AMPK activity than their morphologically matched non-CF counterparts. The cellular [AMP]/[ATP] ratio was higher in undifferentiated than in differentiated non-CF cells, which correlated with AMPK activity under these conditions. However, this nucleotide ratio did not predict AMPK activity in differentiating CF cells. Inhibiting channel activity in non-CF cells did not affect AMPK activity or metabolic status, but expressing functional CFTR in CF cells reduced AMPK activity without affecting cellular [AMP]/[ATP]. Therefore, lack of functional CFTR expression and not loss of channel activity in CF cells appears to up-regulate AMPK activity in CF HBE cells, presumably through non-metabolic effects on upstream regulatory pathways. Compared with wild-type CFTR-expressing immortalized CF bronchial epithelial (CFBE) cells, DeltaF508-CFTR-expressing CFBE cells had greater AMPK activity and greater secretion of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and the interleukins IL-6 and IL-8. Further pharmacologic AMPK activation inhibited inflammatory mediator secretion in both wild type- and DeltaF508-expressing cells, suggesting that AMPK activation in CF airway cells is an adaptive response that reduces inflammation. We propose that therapies to activate AMPK in the CF airway may be beneficial in reducing excessive airway inflammation, a major cause of CF morbidity.

Abstract [show]
Because standard techniques used to detect mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene do not detect single or multiple exonic rearrangements, the importance of such rearrangements may be underestimated. Using an in-house developed, single-tube, semi-quantitative fluorescent PCR (SQF PCR) assay, we analyzed 36 DNA samples submitted for extensive CFTR sequencing and identified ten samples with rearrangements. Of 36 patients with classic CF, 10 (28%) harbored various deletions in the CFTR gene, accounting for 14% of CF chromosomes. A deletion encompassing the CFTR promoter and exons 1 and 2 was detected in a sample from one proband, and in the maternal DNA as well. In another family, a deletion of the promoter and exon 1 was detected in three siblings. In both of these cases, the families were African American and the 3120+1G > A splice site mutation was also identified. These promoter deletions have not been previously described. In a third case, a deletion of exons 17a, 17b, and 18 was identified in a Caucasian female and the same mutation was detected in the paternal DNA. In the other seven cases, we identified the following deletions: exons 2 and 3 (n = 2); exons 4, 5, and 6a; exons 17a and 17b; exons 22 and 23; and exons 22, 23, and 24 (n = 2). In our series, the frequency of CFTR rearrangements in classic CF patients, when only one mutation was identified by extensive DNA sequencing, was >60% (10/16). Screening for exon deletions and duplications in the CFTR gene would be beneficial in classic CF cases, especially when only one mutation is identified by standard methodologies.

Indirect CFTR mutation identification by PCR/OLA anomalous electropherograms.

Abstract [show]
Mutations of CFTR gene are responsible for cystic fibrosis (CF) and other clinical conditions such as congenital absence of the vas deferens (CAVD), chronic pancreatitis (IP), and idiopathic disseminated bronchiectasis (DBE) classified as CFTR-related disorders. The PCR/OLA assay is designed to detect 31 known mutations including the 24 most common CF mutations worldwide, as identified by the CF Consortium. In order to define the CFTR genotype a series of 1812 individuals from central-southern Italy with and without CF manifestations were screened by using the PCR/OLA assay. Here we report the description of five cases of anomalous electropherograms obtained after PCR/OLA analysis, that led to the identification, in the homozygous state, of two point mutations (D110H and S589N) not included in the assay test panel, a large gene deletion (CFTRdel14b_17b), and an exonic polymorphism (c.4002A > G). Haplotype and real time PCR analysis were also performed in the subject carrying the large CFTR deletion. The study demonstrates that the PCR/OLA assay, besides being an efficient and user-friendly method to screen known mutations in the CFTR gene, may also function as a mutation/polymorphism-scanning assay, at least for certain nucleotide changes located in some critical regions of the gene.

Cystic fibrosis: terminology and diagnostic algorithms.
Thorax. 2006 Jul;61(7):627-35. Epub 2005 Dec 29., [PMID:16384879]
Abstract [show]
There is great heterogeneity in the clinical manifestations of cystic fibrosis (CF). Some patients may have all the classical manifestations of CF from infancy and have a relatively poor prognosis, while others have much milder or even atypical disease manifestations and still carry mutations on each of the CFTR genes. It is important to distinguish between these categories of patients. The European Diagnostic Working Group proposes the following terminology. Patients are diagnosed with classic or typical CF if they have one or more phenotypic characteristics and a sweat chloride concentration of >60 mmol/l. The vast majority of CF patients fall into this category. Usually one established mutation causing CF can be identified on each CFTR gene. Patients with classic CF can have exocrine pancreatic insufficiency or pancreatic sufficiency. The disease can have a severe course with rapid progression of symptoms or a milder course with very little deterioration over time. Patients with non-classic or atypical CF have a CF phenotype in at least one organ system and a normal (<30 mmol/l) or borderline (30-60 mmol/l) sweat chloride level. In these patients confirmation of the diagnosis of CF requires detection of one disease causing mutation on each CFTR gene or direct quantification of CFTR dysfunction by nasal potential difference measurement. Non-classic CF includes patients with multiorgan or single organ involvement. Most of these patients have exocrine pancreatic sufficiency and milder lung disease. Algorithms for a structured diagnostic process are proposed.

Abstract [show]
Today, the majority of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients treated in Germany have reached adulthood. However, with increasing age the morbidity and frequency of severe pulmonary complications continues to rise. Further optimization of conventional therapy alone will be insufficient to compensate for this development. In recent years, there has been impressive progress in our understanding of the molecular basis of the CF gene and its product, the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). This knowledge can now be applied to develop new therapeutic strategies. However, important questions remain to be solved, i. e., little is known about the pathways that link the malfunctioning of the CFTR protein with the observed clinical phenotype. This review briefly touches on CF genetics as it applies to lung disease and will focus on the current hypotheses of CFTR (dys)function and its impact on pulmonary fluid homeostasis. New treatment options that target the molecular basis of the disease will be discussed.

Association of common haplotypes of surfactant protein A1 and A2 (SFTPA1 and SFTPA2) genes with severity of lung disease in cystic fibrosis.
Pediatr Pulmonol. 2006 Mar;41(3):255-62., [PMID:16429424]
Abstract [show]
Most individual cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations appear not to correlate directly with severity of lung damage in cystic fibrosis (CF). Components of innate immunity, namely, mannose-binding lectin (MBL2), and surfactant protein A1 and A2 genes (SFTPA1 and SFTPA2), were shown to be critical in pulmonary host defenses. A pilot association study was conducted to identify genetic modifiers of lung disease in adult patients with CF. The structural and promoter (-221x/y) variants of MBL2, variants at codons 19, 50, 62, and 219 of SFTPA1, and at codons 9, 91, and 223 for SFTPA2, were studied in 135 adults with CF and compared to their forced expired volume in 1 sec (FEV1), diffusion of CO (DLCO), and other pulmonary scores. Predicted FEV1 was significantly lower in adults with the SFTPA1 6A3 allele and SFTPA2 1A1) allele (P = 0.01 and 0.009, respectively). The extended haplotype 6A3/1A1, which includes SFTPA1 and SFTPA2, was associated with lower pulmonary function, using FEV1 (P = 0.005) and poor pulmonary scores which were determined by American Medical Association, American Thoracic Society, and modified Shwachman-Kulczycki scores. Lower FEV1 and DLCO values were associated with MBL2 coding variants in those who had the DeltaF508 CFTR mutation (P = 0.03 and 0.004, respectively). These results support the current hypothesis that variants in pulmonary host defense molecules are potentially genetic modifiers of pulmonary disease in CF. Further work in larger populations is required to provide important new insights into the pathogenesis of CF.

Detection of F508del mutation in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutation among Malays.
Singapore Med J. 2006 Feb;47(2):129-33., [PMID:16435054]
Abstract [show]
INTRODUCTION: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the common genetic disorders in the western world. It has been reported to be very rare in Asian populations. According to the Cystic Fibrosis Genetic Analysis Consortium, more than 1,000 mutations of the CF gene have been identified. The CF gene, named the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), is located on chromosome 7 and composed of 27 exons. This study aims to detect possible CFTR gene mutations in Malays. METHODS: We analysed 50 blood samples from healthy Malays with no symptoms of CF. DNA was extracted from blood using commercially available extraction kits (Eppendorf, Germany). Identification of CFTR gene mutation was performed using the CF OLA (Oligonucleotide Ligation Assay) kit (Applied Biosystems, USA). The PCR-ligation products were electrophoresed on eight percent sequagel using an ABI PRISM 377 genetic analyser (Applied Biosystems, USA). Electrophoresis data was analysed using the Genotyper software and a report of the CF genotype for all loci tested was created using the CF Genotyper Template software. Out of 50, one sample (two percent) was detected to have the F508del mutation (3bp deletion at exon 10), which is one of the most common CFTR gene mutations in Caucasians. RESULTS: The F508del mutation allele was detected in one subject. This indicates that she was a CF carrier. CONCLUSION: We report the finding of a carrier of the F508del mutation of the CFTR gene in the Malay population. Our finding revealed that CF could also affect the Malay population. Larger studies are necessary to determine the exact gene frequency of this population.

On the discovery and development of CFTR chloride channel activators.
Curr Pharm Des. 2006;12(4):471-84., [PMID:16472140]
Abstract [show]
Chloride channels play important roles in vital cellular signalling processes contributing to homeostasis in both excitable and non-excitable cells. Since 1987, more than ten ion channel genes have been identified as causing human hereditary diseases among them the genes for the voltage-dependent chloride channel ClC-1 (myotonia) and the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein (cystic fibrosis). The CFTR gene was cloned in 1989 and its protein product identified as an ATP-gated and phosphorylation-regulated chloride channel during the following two years. Since then, searching for potent and specific small molecules able to modulate normal and mutated CFTR has become a crucial endpoint in the field for both our understanding of the physiological role that CFTR plays in epithelial cells and more importantly for the development of therapeutic agents to cure cystic fibrosis (CF). It is predicted that a pharmacological approach would help not only to restore the defective transport activity of mutant CFTR but also to correct the regulatory function of CFTR. This review describes the evolution of CFTR pharmacology and how during the last five years, high throughput screening assays have been developed to identify novel molecules, some of them probably constituting a reservoir of future therapeutic agents for CF.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: In children there is frequently a reason to exclude cystic fibrosis. Sweat testing is used for this. Because sweat testing has some disadvantages we investigated whether analyzing DNA for the local most common CFTR mutations, harvested from buccal cells, is reliable as a method to exclude cystic fibrosis. METHODS: In patients in whom a sweat test had been ordered during the period January 1, 2002 to December 31, 2004, we harvested buccal cell DNA for analysis. When blood was available, DNA from leukocytes was also analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 73 sweat tests were ordered during the two-year study period, mostly because of recurrent pulmonary infections (36; 49%), failure to thrive (20; 27%) and chronic diarrhea (10, 14%). In 70, children the results of the sweat test were normal, in three patients the results were borderline. Sixty buccal smears were analyzed and no patient was homozygous for cystic fibrosis, two were heterozygous for cystic fibrosis. In none of the children the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis was established. CONCLUSION: Analyzing DNA in cells, harvested from the buccal cells, is a reliable alternative to exclude cystic fibrosis. It is safe, simple, and child-friendly.

Abstract [show]
Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene cause the disease cystic fibrosis. We previously reported that gentamicin administration suppressed a CFTR premature stop mutation in a Cftr-/- mouse model carrying a human CFTR-G542X (hCFTR-G542X) transgene, resulting in the appearance of hCFTR protein and function. However, the high doses used in that study resulted in peak serum levels well beyond the levels typically administered to humans. To address this problem, we identified doses of both gentamicin and amikacin that resulted in peak serum levels within their accepted clinical ranges. We then asked whether these doses could suppress the hCFTR-G542X mutation in the Cftr-/- hCFTR-G542X mouse model. Our results indicate that low doses of each compound restored some hCFTR protein expression and function, as shown by immunofluorescence and short-circuit current measurements. However, we found that amikacin suppressed the hCFTR-G542X premature stop mutation more effectively than gentamicin when administered at these clinically relevant doses. Because amikacin is also less toxic than gentamicin, it may represent a superior choice for suppression therapy in patients that carry a premature stop mutation in the CFTR gene.

Association of improved pulmonary phenotype in Irish cystic fibrosis patients with a 3' enhancer polymorphism in alpha-1-antitrypsin.
Pediatr Pulmonol. 2006 Jun;41(6):584-91., [PMID:16617455]
Abstract [show]
Modifier genes other than CFTR are thought to influence lung disease phenotype in cystic fibrosis (CF). In this study, we investigated the relationship between a polymorphism (1237 G --> A) in the 3' enhancer region of the alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) gene and pulmonary disease severity in 320 CF patients recruited from two independent adult referral centers in Ireland, and evaluated the in vivo effect of the polymorphism on AAT levels during acute infection. When corrected for confounding variables, the polymorphism was found to make a small but significant contribution to variance in percent predicted forced expired volume in 1 sec (FEV1) (1.1%, P = 0.05), with possession of the A allele being associated with better pulmonary function (AA/AG genotype: percent predicted FEV1, 70.8 +/- 3.9; GG genotype: percent predicted FEV1, 62.0 +/- 1.4). As would be expected of a modifier effect, the influence of the polymorphism was more marked in patient groups traditionally associated with more severe lung disease, contributing 3.2% (P = 0.033) to the variance in percent predicted FEV1 in patients homozygous for DF508, 3.3% (P = 0.007) to those infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and 3% (P = 0.024) in female patients. In each instance, a positive association between possession of the A variant and higher percent predicted FEV1 was observed. We did not, however, find any evidence that possession of the A allele effected upregulation of AAT during acute infection in vivo. This lack of a demonstrable functional effect in vivo suggests that the polymorphism is a marker for a modifying effect on pulmonary phenotype in the Irish CF population by a mechanism that is yet to be explained.

The relevance of sweat testing for the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis in the genomic era.
Clin Biochem Rev. 2005 Nov;26(4):135-53., [PMID:16648884]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common inherited disorder of childhood. The diagnosis of CF has traditionally been based on clinical features with confirmatory evidence by sweat electrolyte analysis. Since 1989 it has been possible to also use gene mutation analysis to aid the diagnosis. Cloning of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene has advanced our understanding of CF, in particular the molecular basis of an expanded CF phenotype. However, because there are over 1000 mutations and 200 polymorphisms, many without recognised effects on CFTR, the molecular diagnosis can be troublesome. This has necessitated measurement of CFTR function with renewed interest in the sweat test. This review provides an overview of the clinical features of CF, the diagnosis and complex genetics. We provide a detailed discussion of the structure and function of CFTR and the classification of CFTR mutations. Sweat electrolyte analysis is discussed, from the physiology of sweating to the rigours of a properly performed sweat test and its interpretation. With this information it is possible to understand the relevance of the sweat test in the genomic era.

94 These mechanisms of CFTR dysfunction are intended to provide a framework for understanding the molecular basis of epithelial cell abnormalities in CF.71 Class 1: Defective Protein Synthesis Mutations in this class include the most severe CF phenotypes resulting in no protein being synthesised.2,59,67 The most common Class I mutation is G542X, which either prevents the synthesis of a stable protein or results in the production of a truncated protein due to the creation of a premature termination codon.67 The aminoglycoside antibiotics can suppress premature termination codons by permitting translation to continue to the normal termination of the transcript.72 This has shown to be promising in in vitro and in clinical trials but further studies need to be performed to make it a safer compound that may be administered to children with this class of mutation from the time of diagnosis.72 Class II: Defective Protein Processing Mutations in this class result in a CFTR protein that fails to traffic to the correct cellular localisation due to mis-folding of the protein.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Chronic progressive lung disease is the most serious complication of cystic fibrosis (CF). Glutathione plays an important role in the protection of the CF lung against oxidant-induced lung injury. OBJECTIVES: We hypothesized that a polymorphism in a novel candidate gene that regulates glutathione synthesis might influence CF lung disease. METHODS: In a cross-sectional study, subjects were recruited from CF clinics in Seattle and multiple centers in Canada. We tested for an association between CF lung disease and a functional polymorphism in the glutamate-cysteine ligase catalytic subunit (GCLC) gene. Multiple linear regression was used to test for association between polymorphisms of GCLC and severity of CF lung disease while adjusting for age, Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection, and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) genotype. Analysis was repeated for patients with CF stratified by CFTR genotype. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: A total of 440 subjects with CF participated in the study (51% male; mean [+/- SD] age, 26 +/- 11 yr; mean FEV(1), 62 +/- 28% predicted). In the total population, there was a trend toward an association between GCLC genotypes and CF lung disease (linear regression coefficient [SEM], 1.68 [1.0]; p = 0.097). In the stratified analysis, there was a highly significant association between GCLC genotype and CF lung function in subjects with a milder CFTR genotype (linear regression coefficient [SEM], 5.5 (1.7); p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with CF with a milder CFTR genotype, there is a strong association between functional polymorphisms of the GCLC gene and CF lung disease severity.

Abstract [show]
The analysis of 2 diallelic loci (M470V and T854T) and a microsatellite IVS8(T)n of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene has shown different haplotype distribution in Brazilian cystic fibrosis (CF) chromosomes carrying different CF mutations. The DeltaF508 mutation was in absolute linkage disequilibrium with 1-1 haplotype (M470V-T854T). Most of DeltaF508 chromosomes (84%) were found to carry the IVS8-9T. The most frequent haplotypes IVS8-7T and 2-1 (M470V-T854T) were found associated with Non-DeltaF508 mutations. Although there is a remarkable linkage disequilibrium between these markers with CFTR locus, the mutations R334W (7T-1-2 and 7T-2-1) and the 3120 + 1G --> A (7T-1-2 and 9T-1-2) are associated with two different haplotypes probably introduced in the Brazilian population by migration. These findings suggest that recombination events from the original haplotype and gene flow among different ethnic groups (sub-Saharan and Mediterranean) might have resulted in CF mutations associated with different haplotypes by independent introductions.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: Defects of PRSS1, SPINK1, CFTR and AAT are considered causative or predisposing to pancreatitis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of these defects into molecular pathology of chronic pancreatitis (CP) and acute recurrent pancreatitis (ARP). METHODS: Ninety-two children with CP or ARP, 55 family members and 50 controls were investigated. The subjects were screened for PRSS1 mutations: R122H, R122C, A16V, N29I; SPINK1 N34S variant; panel of 14 CFTR defects: INNOLiPA CFTR12, CFTRdele2,3 and IVS8-T variant or panel of 3 CFTR defects-F508del, CFTRdele2,3 and IVS8-T; AAT mutations: E264V, E342K. RESULTS: We identified 1 mutated allele in at least 1 of 4 genes in 31 of 92 patients and 12 of 50 controls (P = 0.157). Mutations in SPINK1 and PRSS1 were most frequent. PRSS1 mutations were identified mainly in CP patients (9.6% of CP vs 2.5% of ARP alleles, P = 0.094), whereas N34S SPINK1 mutation was present with comparable frequency in CP and ARP patients (7.7% vs 10.0%, P = 0.768). The frequency of mutations in CFTR alleles was similar to controls (4.9% vs 5%, P = 0.587). Overall frequency of AAT mutations was lower than in the controls. Family studies showed that defects in the examined genes did not always segregate with disease. CONCLUSIONS: PRSS1 defects seem to be causative for pancreatitis, whereas defects in SPINK1 are suggested to be associated with the disease. No association between CFTR mutations and pancreatitis was observed. The importance of AAT variants remains speculative.

Abstract [show]
RATIONALE: The relationship between sensitization to Aspergillus fumigatus and progression of pulmonary function is not yet established in cystic fibrosis (CF). OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate onset of A. fumigatus sensitization and development of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), as well as to determine the physiologic factors of lung function influencing these mechanisms in CF. METHODS: Serial annual lung function tests performed in 122 children with CF (62 males; 60 females; age: 6-18 yr) provided data pertaining to FRC measured by plethysmography, lung clearance index, volume of trapped gas, effective specific airway resistance, and forced expiratory indices (FEV1, FEF at 50% VC). Specific IgE to recombinant A. fumigatus allergens, rAspf1 and rAspf3, served as marker for sensitization, and to rAspf4 and rAspf6 as indications for a serologic ABPA, were clinically diagnosed (Nelson criteria). By linear mixed-effect model analysis, five patient groups, (1) not sensitized and free from Pseudomonas aeruginosa, (2) intermittently P. aeruginosa colonized, (3) chronically P. aeruginosa infected, (4) sensitized, and (5) with ABPA, were retrospectively evaluated. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: A. fumigatus sensitization was best reflected by increased rAspf1+3-specific IgE levels, whereas, in most patients, sensitization was preceded by P. aeruginosa infection. Patients with ABPA demonstrated the most severe progression in all lung function parameters, and FEF at 50% VC, volume of trapped gas, and effective specific airway resistance were the best predictors (p < 0.0001). However, regarding distinction between sensitization to A. fumigatus and development of ABPA in the course of CF, chronic P. aeruginosa infection has to be taken into account. CONCLUSIONS: Airway narrowing, gas trapping, and small airway disease are the major targets for functional derangement in ABPA.

Comprehensive genetic analysis of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator from dried blood specimens--implications for newborn screening.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: In the United States, approximately 1/3,700 babies is born with cystic fibrosis each year. The >1,300 documented sequence variants pose a challenge for detection of cystic fibrosis through genetic screening. To investigate whether comprehensive characterization of the cystic fibrosis gene is feasible using dried newborn blood specimens, we modified the whole blood Ambry Test: CF and determined its sensitivity by testing DNA from individuals with cystic fibrosis who still had unknown mutations after commercial mutation panel testing. METHODS: DNA from 42 archived newborn dried blood specimens of affected Hispanic, African-American and Caucasian individuals in California was analyzed by temporal temperature gradient electrophoresis screening and targeted sequencing, and by gross deletion analysis. RESULTS: Excluding two specimens that could not be analyzed due to poor DNA quality, we report a 100% sensitivity and clinical detection rate in the remaining 40 patients. Eighty-three mutations representing 40 different variants were detected, including 8 novel mutations. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates the feasibility of temporal temperature gradient electrophoresis-based full sequence analysis and targeted sequencing from DNA in newborn blood specimens. The Ambry Test: CF, as an additional step in cystic fibrosis newborn screening models, can be used to dramatically reduce the number of cystic fibrosis carrier sweat test referrals.

Identification of CFTR, PRSS1, and SPINK1 mutations in 381 patients with pancreatitis.
Pancreas. 2006 Oct;33(3):221-7., [PMID:17003641]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: Chronic pancreatitis is a progressive inflammatory disorder leading to irreversible exocrine and/or endocrine impairment. It is well documented that mutations in the cationic trypsinogen (PRSS1) gene can cause hereditary pancreatitis. Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and the serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 1 (SPINK1) genes are also associated with pancreatitis. METHODS: We analyzed 381 patients with a primary diagnosis of chronic or recurrent pancreatitis using the Ambry Test: Pancreatitis to obtain comprehensive genetic information for the CFTR, SPINK1, and PRSS1 genes. RESULTS: The results identified 32% (122/381) of patients with 166 mutant CFTR alleles, including 12 novel CFTR variants: 4375-20 A>G, F575Y, K598E, L1260P, G194R, F834L, S573C, 2789 + 17 C>T, 621+83 A>G, T164S, 621+25 A>G, and 3500-19 G>A. Of 122 patients with CFTR mutations, 5.5% (21/381) also carried a SPINK1 mutation, and 1.8% (7/381) carried a PRSS1 mutation. In addition, 8.9% (34/381) of all patients had 1 of 11 different SPINK1 mutations. Another 6.3% (24/381) of the patients had 1 of 8 different PRSS1 mutations. Moreover, 1.3% of the patients (5/381) had 1 PRSS1 and 1 SPINK1 mutation. A total 49% (185/381) of the patients carried one or more mutations. CONCLUSIONS: Comprehensive testing of the CFTR, PRSS1, and SPINK1 genes identified genetic variants in nearly half of all subjects considered by their physicians as candidates for genetic testing. Comprehensive test identified numerous novel variants that would not be identified by standard clinical screening panels.

Prospective analysis of cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator mutations in adults with bronchiectasis or pulmonary nontuberculous mycobacterial infection.
Chest. 2006 Oct;130(4):995-1002., [PMID:17035430]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Bronchiectasis and pulmonary infection with nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) may be associated with disease-causing mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR). METHODS: Fifty adult patients at Stanford University Medical Center with a diagnosis of bronchiectasis and/or pulmonary NTM infection were prospectively characterized by sweat chloride measurement, comprehensive mutational analysis of CFTR, and sputum culture results. RESULTS: A de novo diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) was established in 10 patients (20%). Patients with CF were more likely than those without CF to have mucus plugging seen on chest high-resolution CT, and women with a CF diagnosis were thinner, with a significantly lower mean body mass index than the non-CF subjects. Thirty CFTR mutations were identified in 24 patients (50% prevalence). Sweat chloride concentration was elevated > 60 mEq/dL (diagnostic of CF) in seven patients (14%), and from 40 to 60 mEq/dL in eight patients (16%). The frequency of CFTR mutations was elevated above that expected in the general population: heterozygous DeltaF508 (12% vs 3%), R75Q (14% vs 1%), and intron 8 5T (17% vs 5 to 10%). Other known CFTR mutations identified were V456A, G542X, R668C, I1027T, D1152, R1162L, W1282X, and L183I. Three novel CFTR mutations were identified: A394V, F650L, and C1344S. CONCLUSIONS: Mutations in CFTR that alter RNA splicing and/or functional chloride conductance are common in this population, and are likely to contribute to the susceptibility and pathogenesis of adult bronchiectasis and pulmonary NTM infection. Careful clinical evaluation for disease cause should be undertaken in this clinical context.

CFTR genotype as a predictor of prognosis in cystic fibrosis.
Chest. 2006 Nov;130(5):1441-7., [PMID:17099022]
Abstract [show]
STUDY RATIONALE: Certain CFTR genotypes are associated with reduced mortality. The accuracy of using CFTR genotype as a predictor of survival and the mechanisms through which CFTR genotype influences survival are unknown. PARTICIPANTS: All patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) enrolled in the US Cystic Fibrosis Foundation national registry between 1993 and 2002. DESIGN: We examined the prognostic value of CFTR genotype, grouped into "high-risk" and "low-risk" categories based on the effect of their CFTR genotype on phenotype and protein production. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS: Clinical and genetic data were available from 15,651 patients with CF. Patients with a high-risk CFTR genotype had a greater than twofold increased risk of death compared to patients with a low-risk CFTR genotype (relative risk, 2.25; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.77 to 2.84; p < 0.001). This association was partly explained by lung function, nutritional status, pancreatic insufficiency, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonization. Of the 1,672 patients who died, median age at death for the high-risk CFTR genotype was 24.2 years (interquartile range, 18.4 to 32.0 years) and for the low-risk CFTR genotype was 37.6 years (interquartile range, 28.8 to 47.9 years; p < 0.001). The positive predictive value of this classification method as a test to identify patients who died before or after their 30th birthday was 69% (95% CI, 67 to 72%) with a negative predictive value of 71% (95% CI, 60 to 80%). CONCLUSIONS: Grouping patients into high-risk and low-risk CFTR genotype categories is associated with significant differences in survival and median age at death. These differences are not fully explained by lung function, nutritional measures, pancreatic insufficiency, or P aeruginosa colonization. Modest reassurance about the likelihood of a milder than average course can be provided for CF patients with a low-risk CFTR genotype, although it should be acknowledged that substantial phenotypic variability exists.

Progression of pulmonary hyperinflation and trapped gas associated with genetic and environmental factors in children with cystic fibrosis.
Respir Res. 2006 Nov 30;7:138., [PMID:17137500]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Functional deterioration in cystic fibrosis (CF) may be reflected by increasing bronchial obstruction and, as recently shown, by ventilation inhomogeneities. This study investigated which physiological factors (airway obstruction, ventilation inhomogeneities, pulmonary hyperinflation, development of trapped gas) best express the decline in lung function, and what role specific CFTR genotypes and different types of bronchial infection may have upon this process. METHODS: Serial annual lung function tests, performed in 152 children (77 males; 75 females) with CF (age range: 6-18 y) provided data pertaining to functional residual capacity (FRCpleth, FRCMBNW), volume of trapped gas (VTG), effective specific airway resistance (sReff), lung clearance index (LCI), and forced expiratory indices (FVC, FEV1, FEF50). RESULTS: All lung function parameters showed progression with age. Pulmonary hyperinflation (FRCpleth > 2SDS) was already present in 39% of patients at age 6-8 yrs, increasing to 67% at age 18 yrs. The proportion of patients with VTG > 2SDS increased from 15% to 54% during this period. Children with severe pulmonary hyperinflation and trapped gas at age 6-8 yrs showed the most pronounced disease progression over time. Age related tracking of lung function parameters commences early in life, and is significantly influenced by specific CFTR genotypes. The group with chronic P. aeruginosa infection demonstrated most rapid progression in all lung function parameters, whilst those with chronic S. aureus infection had the slowest rate of progression. LCI, measured as an index of ventilation inhomogeneities was the most sensitive discriminator between the 3 types of infection examined (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: The relationships between lung function indices, CFTR genotypes and infective organisms observed in this study suggest that measurement of other lung function parameters, in addition to spirometry alone, may provide important information about disease progression in CF.

Prediction of cellular immune responses against CFTR in patients with cystic fibrosis after gene therapy.
Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol. 2007 May;36(5):529-33. Epub 2007 Jan 11., [PMID:17218617]
Abstract [show]
Different classes of mutations (class I-VI) of the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene are responsible for lung/pancreatic disease. The most common mutation, DeltaF508, is characterized by expression of precursor forms of CFTR but no functional CFTR. Since only 5-10% of normal CFTR function is required to correct the electrophysiologic defect across the airway epithelium, gene therapy holds promise for treatment of patients with CF lung disease. However, efficient delivery and transgene expression are not the only parameters that may influence the success of gene therapy. Host-specific immune responses generated against the therapeutic CFTR protein may pose a problem, especially when the coding sequence between the normal CFTR and mutated CFTR differ. This phenomenon is more pertinent to class I mutations in which large fragments of the protein are not expressed. However, T cells directed against epitopes that span sequences containing class II-V mutations are also possible. We used MHC-binding prediction programs to predict the probability of cellular immune responses that may be generated against CFTR in DeltaF508 homozygote patients. Results obtained from running the prediction algorithms yielded a few high-scoring MHC-Class I binders within the specific sequences, suggesting that there is a possibility of the host to mount a cellular immune response against CFTR, even when the difference between therapeutic and host CFTR is a single amino acid (F) at position 508.

Cystic fibrosis is associated with a defect in apical receptor-mediated endocytosis in mouse and human kidney.
J Am Soc Nephrol. 2007 Mar;18(3):707-18. Epub 2007 Feb 7., [PMID:17287432]
Abstract [show]
Inactivation of the chloride channel cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) causes cystic fibrosis (CF). Although CFTR is expressed in the kidney, no overwhelming renal phenotype has been documented in patients with CF. This study investigated the expression, subcellular distribution, and processing of CFTR in the kidney; used various mouse models to assess the role of CFTR in proximal tubule (PT) endocytosis; and tested the relevance of these findings in patients with CF. The level of CFTR mRNA in mouse kidney approached that found in lung. CFTR was located in the apical area of PT cells, with a maximal intensity in the straight part (S3) of the PT. Fractionation showed that CFTR co-distributed with the chloride/proton exchanger ClC-5 in PT endosomes. Cftr(-/-) mice showed impaired (125)I-beta(2)-microglobulin uptake, together with a decreased amount of the multiligand receptor cubilin in the S3 segment and a significant loss of cubilin and its low molecular weight (LMW) ligands into the urine. Defective receptor-mediated endocytosis was found less consistently in Cftr(DeltaF/DeltaF) mice, characterized by a large phenotypic heterogeneity and moderate versus mice that lacked ClC-5. A significant LMW proteinuria (and particularly transferrinuria) also was documented in a cohort of patients with CF but not in patients with asthma and chronic lung inflammation. In conclusion, CFTR inactivation leads to a moderate defect in receptor-mediated PT endocytosis, associated with a cubilin defect and a significant LMW proteinuria in mouse and human. The magnitude of the endocytosis defect that is caused by CFTR versus ClC-5 loss likely reflects functional heterogeneity along the PT.

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay affects nonsense transcript levels and governs response of cystic fibrosis patients to gentamicin.

Abstract [show]
Aminoglycosides can readthrough premature termination codons (PTCs), permitting translation of full-length proteins. Previously we have found variable efficiency of readthrough in response to the aminoglycoside gentamicin among cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, all carrying the W1282X nonsense mutation. Here we demonstrate that there are patients in whom the level of CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) nonsense transcripts is markedly reduced, while in others it is significantly higher. Response to gentamicin was found only in patients with the higher level. We further investigated the possibility that the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) might vary among cells and hence governs the level of nonsense transcripts available for readthrough. Our results demonstrate differences in NMD efficiency of CFTR transcripts carrying the W1282X mutation among different epithelial cell lines derived from the same tissue. Variability was also found for 5 physiologic NMD substrates, RPL3, SC35 1.6 kb, SC35 1.7 kb, ASNS, and CARS. Importantly, our results demonstrate the existence of cells in which NMD of all transcripts was efficient and others in which the NMD was less efficient. Downregulation of NMD in cells carrying the W1282X mutation increased the level of CFTR nonsense transcripts and enhanced the CFTR chloride channel activity in response to gentamicin. Together our results suggest that the efficiency of NMD might vary and hence have an important role in governing the response to treatments aiming to promote readthrough of PTCs in many genetic diseases.

No detectable improvements in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator by nasal aminoglycosides in patients with cystic fibrosis with stop mutations.
Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol. 2007 Jul;37(1):57-66. Epub 2007 Mar 8., [PMID:17347447]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by many types of genetic defects, including premature stop codons. Gentamicin can suppress stop mutations in CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in vitro and in vivo, leading to improvements in CFTR-dependent ion transport and protein localization to the apical surface of respiratory epithelial cells. The primary objective of this study was to test whether nasally administered gentamicin or tobramycin could suppress premature stop mutations in CFTR, resulting in full-length, functional protein. A secondary objective was to obtain data to aid in the design of multicenter trials using the nasal potential difference as a study endpoint. A multicenter study was conducted in two cohorts of patients with CF, those heterozygous for stop mutations in the CFTR gene and those without nonsense mutations, to investigate the effects of both gentamicin and tobramycin administered over a 28-d period on sequential nasal potential difference and airway cell immunofluorescence endpoints. Eleven patients with CF with stop mutations were enrolled in a randomized, double-blinded, crossover fashion to receive each drug, while 18 subjects with CF without stop mutations were randomized 1:1 in a parallel fashion to receive one drug. After demonstration of drug delivery, neither aminoglycoside produced detectable changes in nasal ion transport or CFTR localization in brushed cells from either study group. These results with first-generation suppressive agents suggest the need for improved drug delivery methods and/or more potent suppressors of nonsense mutations to confer CFTR correction in subjects with CF heterozygous for nonsense mutations. The study provides valuable information on parameters of the nasal potential difference measurements for use in future multicenter clinical trials.

Heteropolymeric triplex-based genomic assay to detect pathogens or single-nucleotide polymorphisms in human genomic samples.
PLoS One. 2007 Mar 21;2(3):e305., [PMID:17375191]
Abstract [show]
Human genomic samples are complex and are considered difficult to assay directly without denaturation or PCR amplification. We report the use of a base-specific heteropolymeric triplex, formed by native duplex genomic target and an oligonucleotide third strand probe, to assay for low copy pathogen genomes present in a sample also containing human genomic duplex DNA, or to assay human genomic duplex DNA for Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP), without PCR amplification. Wild-type and mutant probes are used to identify triplexes containing FVL G1691A, MTHFR C677T and CFTR mutations. The specific triplex structure forms rapidly at room temperature in solution and may be detected without a separation step. YOYO-1, a fluorescent bis-intercalator, promotes and signals the formation of the specific triplex. Genomic duplexes may be assayed homogeneously with single base pair resolution. The specific triple-stranded structures of the assay may approximate homologous recombination intermediates, which various models suggest may form in either the major or minor groove of the duplex. The bases of the stable duplex target are rendered specifically reactive to the bases of the probe because of the activity of intercalated YOYO-1, which is known to decondense duplex locally 1.3 fold. This may approximate the local decondensation effected by recombination proteins such as RecA in vivo. Our assay, while involving triplex formation, is sui generis, as it is not homopurine sequence-dependent, as are "canonical triplexes". Rather, the base pair-specific heteropolymeric triplex of the assay is conformation-dependent. The highly sensitive diagnostic assay we present allows for the direct detection of base sequence in genomic duplex samples, including those containing human genomic duplex DNA, thereby bypassing the inherent problems and cost associated with conventional PCR based diagnostic assays.

Abstract [show]
Testing strategies and summary reports for pregnant patients and symptomatic patients being tested for cystic fibrosis (CF; MIM 219700) were developed based upon calculated after (posterior) test risk tables incorporating patient and family histories, ethnicities, and prior testing status. This manuscript defines the proportion of all mutations detected by the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG)-recommended 23-mutation cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene core panel when testing all patient categories with severe symptoms, including pregnant couples with no family history as well as CF patients, their partners, and other family members. Reference tables incorporate prior and posterior test risks sufficient to complete >99% of all tested cases and to report the results according to HIPAA guidelines. These tables were calculated based on the assumption that all patient samples have been collected, labeled, analyzed, and reported correctly, including the patient's reported relationship to a known affected or carrier relative, even though the template letter states that the likelihood is about 99% that each reported result is accurate. Pedigrees and tables with the prior (before; a priori) test risks of patients offered CF screening with a family history of a CF patient and/or a known carrier patient are provided for ready reference with each risk frequency, dependent upon the assumption that the patient's pedigree reflects familial relationships correctly. Comparison of tables emphasizes the value of asking the tested partner to ask a relative known to have CF or who tested positive for a CF mutation to donate a sample as a DNA test control and/or to obtain a copy of a prior molecular test result and/or extracted DNA sample. These tables posterior test risks also indicate that when one partner with no family history tests negative for the 23 mutation panel, no further prenatal testing is indicated.

In vitro prediction of stop-codon suppression by intravenous gentamicin in patients with cystic fibrosis: a pilot study.
BMC Med. 2007 Mar 29;5:5., [PMID:17394637]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein, which acts as a chloride channel activated by cyclic AMP (cAMP). The most frequent mutation found in 70% of CF patients is F508del, while premature stop mutations are found in about 10% of patients. In vitro aminoglycoside antibiotics (e.g. gentamicin) suppress nonsense mutations located in CFTR permitting translation to continue to the natural termination codon. Pharmacologic suppression of stop mutations within the CFTR may be of benefit to a significant number of patients. Our pilot study was conducted to determine whether intravenous gentamicin suppresses stop codons in CF patients and whether it has clinical benefits. METHODS: A dual gene reporter system was used to determine the gentamicin-induced readthrough level of the most frequent stop mutations within the CFTR in the French population. We investigated readthrough efficiency in response to 10 mg/kg once-daily intravenous gentamicin perfusions in patients with and without stop mutations. Respiratory function, sweat chloride concentration, nasal potential difference (NPD) and CFTR expression in nasal epithelial cells were measured at baseline and after 15 days of treatment. RESULTS: After in vitro gentamicin incubation, the readthrough efficiency for the Y122X mutation was at least five times higher than that for G542X, R1162X, and W1282X. In six of the nine patients with the Y122X mutation, CFTR immunodetection showed protein at the membrane of the nasal epithelial cells and the CFTR-dependent Cl- secretion in NPD measurements increased significantly. Respiratory status also improved in these patients, irrespective of the gentamicin sensitivity of the bacteria present in the sputum. Mean sweat chloride concentration decreased significantly and normalised in two patients. Clinical status, NPD and sweat Cl- values did not change in the Y122X patients with no protein expression, in patients with the other stop mutations investigated in vitro and those without stop mutations. CONCLUSION: Suppression of stop mutations in the CFTR gene with parenteral gentamicin can be predicted in vitro and is associated with clinical benefit and significant modification of the CFTR-mediated Cl- transport in nasal and sweat gland epithelium.

Molecular characterization of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene in congenital absence of the vas deferens.
Genet Med. 2007 Mar;9(3):163-72., [PMID:17413420]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: Approximately 20% of patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens remain without two mutations identified. We applied a strategy of serial screening steps to 45 patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens and characterized cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutations in all cases. METHODS: DNA samples of 45 patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens were screened by successive different molecular genetics approaches. RESULTS: Initial screening for the 31 most frequent cystic fibrosis mutations, IVS8 poly(TG)m, poly(T)n, and M470V polymorphisms, identified 8 different mutations in 40 patients (88.9%). Extensive cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene analysis by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography, and DNA sequencing detected 17 further mutations, of which three were novel. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene rearrangements were searched by semiquantitative fluorescent multiplex polymerase chain reaction, which detected a CFTRdele2,3 (21 kb) large deletion and confirmed two homozygous mutations. Overall, 42 patients (93.3%) had two mutations and 3 patients (6.7%) had one mutation detected. CONCLUSIONS: The present screening strategy allowed a higher mutation detection rate than previous studies, with at least one cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutation found in all patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common autosomal recessive diseases in the white population, with a prevalence estimate of 1 in 2500 to 3300 live births. CF is characterized by viscous mucus in the lungs with involvement of digestive and reproductive systems as well as sweat glands (excess salt loss). Treatment for CF patients is palliative. Over 1300 mutations have been identified in the CFTR gene. However, most of the mutations are at frequencies of <0.1% or represent private mutations. Although other methodologies are available for CF testing, the oligonucleotide ligation assay is a unique approach to mutation detection of point mutations, small deletions, and small insertions, and consists of 2 phases. Applied Biosystems 3130 Series Genetic Analyzers are the next-generation platform for low to medium throughput laboratories and deliver improved performance. One disadvantage of the Genetic Analyzers is that there is no template of instrument settings for POP-6 polymer using 36-cm array. The Abbott CF oligonucleotide ligation assay ASRs can be run only using POP-6 polymer. We are the first to have optimized the instrument settings for POP-6 polymer based on the template of Rapidseq36-POP6 for Abbott Diagnostics CF V3 ASRs. Several conditions were tried, and the conditions of sample injection voltage at 10,000 v and sample injection time at 5 seconds gave better results, which were with clearer peaks and lower background signals. Twenty cell line DNA samples from Coriell were analyzed, and the results were matched. In addition, Synthetic Controls from AcroMetrix were analyzed, and the results were same as expected. Also, about 1500 clinical samples were analyzed, and high-quality reportable results were obtained. In conclusion, our modified protocol is robust and reliable on this ABI 3130XL instrument.

Clinical evaluation of isolated nonvisualized fetal gallbladder.
Prenat Diagn. 2007 Aug;27(8):699-703., [PMID:17510919]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: Isolated nonvisualized fetal gallbladder (INVFGB) is relatively rare. In most cases, the gallbladder will eventually be detected. In some cases however, INVFGB may be associated with serious abnormalities, cystic fibrosis (CF), aneuploidy, and agenesis of the gall bladder. We describe a clinical evaluation of prenatally diagnosed INVFGB. METHODS: Cases of nonvisualized gallbladder were first evaluated by serial scans. Cases with no additional malformations were designated as INVFGB, and were further evaluated by mutation analysis for CF, and amniocentesis for karyotype and microvillar membrane enzymes (MME). RESULTS: A total of 22 cases of nonvisualized gallbladder were detected. Of these, 2 had additional malformations, and 3 were excluded because of incomplete evaluation. Of the remaining 17 cases, 3 (17.6%) had adverse outcomes: 1 case of CF, 1 case of 47,XXX, and 1 case of multiple congenital anomalies detected only postnatally. Abnormal levels of MMEs were detected in 3 cases, 1 of which was diagnosed with CF. In 2 cases, the gallbladder was not detected even after birth, but development is normal. CONCLUSION: Evaluation of INVFGB should include genetic counselling, amniocentesis for karyotype and MME analysis, CFTR mutation analysis and repeated ultrasound scans.

Cystic fibrosis and formes frustes of CFTR-related disease.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the commonest genetic cause of bronchiectasis in the Caucasian population. Since identification of the putative gene in 1989, the molecular basis of the condition has become clearer with characterisation of the unique pathophysiology. The small airways are the primary site of lung disease, with an intense but localised inflammatory picture, dominated by neutrophils. The clinical heterogeneity is explained to some degree by the distinct molecular consequences of the many mutations that have been recognised to affect the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene; however other genes appear to modify the phenotype as well as environmental exposure. It has become increasingly apparent that certain conditions may result from CFTR dysfunction without fulfilling diagnostic criteria for CF. In some cases this may result in single organ disease for which the term CF (or CFTR)-related disease has been advocated. Congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens is the most clearly characterised of these. In other cases where a mild CF phenotype is apparent, atypical CF is probably a better term. It remains unclear whether carrier status predisposes to certain conditions such as chronic rhinosinusitis or pancreatitis.

Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol. 2007 Sep;37(3):347-56. Epub 2007 May 31., [PMID:17541014]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis results from mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Premature termination codons represent a common minority of CFTR mutations, and are caused by base pair substitutions that produce abnormal stop codons in the coding sequence. Select aminoglycosides induce "translational readthrough" of premature stop codons and have been shown to restore full-length functional protein in a number of preclinical and clinical settings. We studied two well-described premature termination codons found in the distal open reading frame of CFTR, W1282X and R1162X, expressed in polarizing and nonpolarizing cells. Our findings indicate that W1282X CFTR-expressing cells demonstrate significantly greater CFTR activity when overexpressed compared with R1162X CFTR cells, even when truncated protein is the predominant form. In addition, our results show that the combination of stimulated expression and stop codon suppression produces additive effects on CFTR-mediated ion transport. These findings provide evidence that W1282X CFTR exhibits membrane localization and retained chloride channel function after enhanced expression, and suggest that patients harboring this mutation may be more susceptible to CFTR rescue.

Abstract [show]
INTRODUCTION: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a common lethal genetic disorder. The aim of this study was to determine the common chest radiograph (CXR) patterns in adult CF, and correlate disease distribution on CXRs with genotype, age, and gender. METHODS: One hundred nine CF patients treated at Baylor Adult Cystic Fibrosis Center were identified. The intake CXR was reviewed and characterized as diffuse bilateral (DB), unilateral, upper lobe (UL), and lower lobe (LL) disease, or relatively normal. Lack of intake CXR, and/or genotype excluded 41 patients from analysis. RESULTS: Of 68 patients, 38 were homozygous for DeltaF508 and 30 were heterozygous. Mean age of the population was 30 +/- 8 years (+/- SD) [range, 18 to 48 years]. The most common CXR pattern was DB; 62% had DB, 28% had UL, and 7% had LL predominance. This is in contrast to the UL-predominant CXR pattern commonly described in the pediatric population. In 18 DB patients, archived pediatric films were available, and the average patient age was 15.7 years. DB pattern was present in 16 of 18 CXRs that antedated adult intake CXRs by an average of 12.7 years. Homozygous DeltaF508 genotype was identified in 56% of patients and did not distinguish radiologic phenotypes. There was no association between radiograph pattern and identified infecting/colonizing organisms and percentage of predicted FEV(1). CONCLUSIONS: CF has commonly been reported as an UL disease. However, in this study of adult patients, the common pattern observed was DB. A small subgroup analysis suggests that DB disease was not a pattern of disease evolution but may be present from disease onset.

Activation of CFTR-specific T Cells in cystic fibrosis mice following gene transfer.
Mol Ther. 2007 Sep;15(9):1694-700. Epub 2007 Jun 19., [PMID:17579582]
Abstract [show]
Gene therapy for cystic fibrosis (CF) airway disease has emerged as a potentially successful therapy, because expression of the CF gene would be expected to restore the electrophysiological function of the airway epithelium to normalcy. Although, cellular and humoral immune responses to viral gene transfer vectors have been studied extensively, there has been no evaluation of T cell-mediated responses to the therapeutic human CF gene product. Using an adenovirus vector we demonstrated that T cells against human CF gene protein are elicited in CF gene knockout (KO), heterozygote (Het), and wild-type (wt) mice. A dominant CD8 T cell epitope found in CF gene KO, Het, and wt mice was mapped to NTYLRYITV. In CF gene KO mice we also identified (to a conserved region of the CF gene CSQFSWIMPGTIKEN), a minor T cell epitope that did not show any activity in the Het or wt mice.

16 The first set of studies attempted to model the consequences of in vivo gene transfer in recipients void of CFTR -expression such as in those with two Class I CFTR gene -mutations, with CFTR being either deleted or substantially truncated (i.e., G542X).16 This clinical situation was modeled by delivering an adenovirus vector expressing hCFTR into mice homozygous for the germ line interruption of CFTR.

Does cystic fibrosis neonatal screening detect atypical CF forms? Extended genetic characterization and 4-year clinical follow-up.
Clin Genet. 2007 Jul;72(1):39-46., [PMID:17594398]
Abstract [show]
The neonatal screening protocol for cystic fibrosis (CF) is based on a first determination of blood immunoreactive trypsin (IRT1), followed by a first level genetic test that includes the 31 worldwide most common mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene (DNA31), and a second determination of blood immunoreactive trypsin (IRT2). This approach identifies, in addition to affected subjects, a high proportion of newborns with hypertrypsinaemia at birth, in whom only one mutation is identified and who have a negative or borderline sweat test and pancreatic sufficiency. Although it has been suggested that hypertrypsinaemia may be caused by a single CFTR mutation, whether such neonates should be merely considered as healthy carriers remains a matter of debate as hypertrypsinaemia at birth may be a biochemical marker of a CFTR malfunction because of a second mild mutation. We analyzed, by means of an extended sequencing protocol, 32 newborns who tested positive at an IRT1/DNA31/IRT2 screening protocol and in whom only one CFTR mutation was found. The results obtained demonstrate that 62.5% of these newborns were also carrying a second mild CFTR mutation. The high proportion of compound heterozygous subjects, combined with the results of a 4-year follow-up in nine of these subjects all of whom displaying initial CF clinical symptoms, suggest that it may be possible to use the IRT1/DNA31/IRT2 protocol of neonatal screening to identify newborns with atypical forms of CF. In view of these findings, an extended genetic search for subjects with compound heterozygosity and a periodic clinical assessment should be considered.

Abstract [show]
The aim of this study was to reveal the CFTR gene mutation status in the Croatian population as well as to establish the haplotypes associated with cystic fibrosis (CF) and those associated with specific gene mutations. A total of 48 unrelated CF patients from Croatia were examined. Among 96 tested alleles, we found nine different mutations: DeltaF508, 58.33%; G542X, 3.12%; N1303K, 2.08%; R1162X; 621 + 1G --> T; G85E; Y569C; E585X; and S466X, 1.04%. Analysis of three polymorphic loci revealed 15 different haplotypes. Two of them (21-23-13 and 21-17-13) occurred with a higher frequency (40% and 24%). Both of these haplotypes also carried a CFTR gene mutation (DeltaF508 or G542X) on 27 out of 32 chromosomes. Among 12 (of all together 29) CF alleles on which no mutations were found, we detected 10 different haplotypes. Because there are still no published data on the distribution of polymorphic loci in Croatia, nor haplotypes associated with mutations in the CFTR gene, our results greatly contribute to knowledge regarding the genetic background of CF in this region.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) of the pancreas is the most widely accepted name of the most common fatal inherited single gene defect disease among Caucasians. Its incidence among other races is thought to be significantly less, but mutations in the gene have been reported in most, if not all, major populations. This review is intended to give general concepts of the molecular as well as physiological basis of the pathology that develops in the disease. First, an overview of the organ pathology and genetics is presented, followed by the molecular structure of the gene product (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator, CFTR), its properties, functions, and controls as currently understood. Second, since mutations appear to be expressed primarily as a defect in electrolyte transport, effects and mechanisms of pathology are presented for two characteristically affected organs where the etiology is best described: the sweat gland, which excretes far too much NaCl ("salt") and the pancreas, which excretes far too little HCO3(- )("soda"). Unfortunately, morbidity and mortality in CF develop principally from refractory airway infections, the basis of which remains controversial. Consequently, we conclude by considering possible mechanisms by which defects in anion transport might predispose the CF lung to chronic infections.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease that frequently leads to death in infancy among Europeans and their descendants. The goals of the present study were to analyze the molecular aspects of CFTR gene characterizing mutations, their frequencies, and the haplotypes formed by four CFTR gene intragenic markers, IVS8-6(T)n, IVS8CA, IVS17bTA and IVS17bCA, in a southern Brazilian population of Caucasian origin. DNA samples from 56 non-related CF patients were analyzed using scanning techniques (single strand conformation polymorphism and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis), restriction fragment length polymorphism and direct DNA sequencing to identify the mutations. Our results revealed a total of 25 different CF mutations representing nearly 90% of CF alleles, two being novel mutations. Microsatellite haplotypes were defined for CF and normal alleles. The mutational spectrum and the associated haplotypes described for the first time in this study should prove relevant for genetic counselling and CF population screening in Brazil. Moreover, our results suggest the presence of a major Mediterranean component in the contemporary Brazilian CF patient pool.

BACKGROUND: Complete gene analysis of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) by scanning and/or sequencing is seldom performed because of the cost, time, and labor involved. High-resolution DNA melting analysis is a rapid, closed-tube alternative for gene scanning and genotyping. METHODS: The 27 exons of CFTR were amplified in 37 PCR products under identical conditions. Common variants in 96 blood donors were identified in each exon by high-resolution melting on a LightScanner(R). We then performed a subsequent blinded study on 30 samples enriched for disease-causing variants, including all 23 variants recommended by the American College of Medical Genetics and 8 additional, well-characterized variants. RESULTS: We identified 22 different sequence variants in 96 blood donors, including 4 novel variants and the disease-causing p.F508del. In the blinded study, all 40 disease-causing heterozygotes (29 unique) were detected, including 1 new probable disease-causing variant (c.3500-2A>T). The number of false-positive amplicons was decreased 96% by considering the 6 most common heterozygotes. The melting patterns of most heterozygotes were unique (37 of 40 pairs within the same amplicon), the exceptions being p.F508del vs p.I507del, p.G551D vs p.R553X, and p.W1282X vs c.4002A>G. The homozygotes p.G542X, c.2789 + 5G>A, and c.3849 + 10kbC>T were directly identified, but homozygous p.F508del was not. Specific genotyping of these exceptions, as well as genotyping of the 5T allele of intron 8, was achieved by unlabeled-probe and small-amplicon melting assays. CONCLUSIONS: High-resolution DNA melting methods provide a rapid and accurate alternative for complete CFTR analysis. False positives can be decreased by considering the melting profiles of common variants.

Abstract [show]
Multiple hypotheses have been proposed to explain the high incidence of cystic fibrosis in Caucasian populations. Most rely on a fitness advantage to carriers of CF mutations, either through increased resistance to infectious disease, such as cholera, or through increased fertility. In this study we tested the latter hypothesis in the Hutterites of South Dakota, a genetic isolate with a relatively high CF carrier frequency. Following a population-wide screen for the only two mutations present in the Hutterites (M1101K, DeltaF508), we tested for associations between carrier status and measures of fertility. There was no evidence of nonrandom transmission of mutations (P = 0.409) or skewed sex ratios (P = 0.847) in children of carrier parents. Moreover, carrier status was not associated with overall fertility (P = 0.597 for carrier fathers and 0.694 for carrier mothers). Although carrier males' sibship sizes were larger than carrier females' sibship sizes (P = 0.049), this was not significant after accounting for multiple testing. Overall, our results suggest that if there is a fertility advantage among CF carriers, it is too small to be detected in our sample (85 carriers out of approximately 950 screened), or the effects are confined to DeltaF508 carriers, for which there are too few in our sample to test this specific hypothesis.

Abstract [show]
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a Cl(-) channel gated by ATP-driven nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) dimerization. Here we exploit species differences between human and murine CFTR to investigate CFTR channel gating. Using homologous recombination, we constructed human-murine CFTR (hmCFTR) chimeras with sequences from NBD1, NBD2, or the regulatory domain (RD) of human CFTR replaced by the equivalent regions of murine CFTR. The gating behavior of hmRD and human CFTR were indistinguishable, whereas hmNBD1 and hmNBD2 had subtle effects on channel gating, prolonging both burst duration and interburst interval. By contrast, hmNBD1+2, containing both NBDs of murine CFTR, reproduced the gating behavior of the subconductance state of murine CFTR, which has dramatically prolonged channel openings. The CFTR potentiator pyrophosphate (PP(i)) enhanced human, hmRD, and hmNBD1 CFTR Cl(-) currents, but not those of hmNBD2, hmNBD1+2, and murine CFTR. By analyzing the rate-equilibrium free-energy relationships of chimeric channels, we obtained snapshots of the conformation of the NBDs during ATP-driven dimerization. Our data demonstrate that the conformation of NBD1 changes before that of NBD2 during channel opening. This finding suggests that NBD dimerization does not proceed by a symmetric tweezer-like motion, but instead in an asymmetric fashion led by NBD1. We conclude that the NBDs of murine CFTR determine the unique gating behavior of its subconductance state, whereas NBD2 controls channel potentiation by PP(i).

Abstract [show]
AIM: Assess the risk of zinc (Zn) deficiency in the older cystic fibrosis (CF) population. METHOD: Cross-sectional investigation of all CF patients above the age of 4 followed at the Ghent University center between 2002 and 2003. Data on age, weight, height z-score, pancreatic and pulmonary functions, chronic Pseudomonas infection, and CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations were collected. Serum Zn, vitamins (vit) A and E, retinol-binding protein (RBP), albumin, sedimentation rate, total IgG, and cholesterol were determined. Serum Zn was compared with a local healthy control group (Van Biervliet et al., Biol Trace Elem Res 94:33-40, 2003) and with literature data (Hotz C, et al. Am J Clin Nutr 78:756-764, 2003). RESULTS: 101 patients (median age 16 years) were included. There was no difference in serum Zn concentration between CF patients and controls. In CF patients no difference in serum Zn concentration between pancreatic-sufficient or pancreatic-insufficient patients was seen. Serum Zn was not associated to nutritional status or height z-score. A significant association serum Zn to serum albumin (p < 0.0005) and to vit A (p < 0.01) was seen. No associations of serum Zn to serum vit E, RBP, cholesterol, or CFTR were present, but there is a significant association serum Zn to forced vital capacity (p < 0.01). Serum Zn was not associated to inflammatory parameters or chronic Pseudomonas infection. CONCLUSION: Comparison of CF patients with local controls revealed no significant differences. However, because persisting steatorrhea increases Zn loss (Easley et al., J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr 26:136-139, 1998) and 12.6% of our population has a serum Zn below the p value of 2.5 of the NHANES II study (Hotz C, et al. Am J Clin Nutr 78:756-764, 2003), there could remain an increased risk of Zn deficiency in some CF patients. Furthermore, the association with pulmonary function needs more investigation.

One multiplex control for 29 cystic fibrosis mutations.

Abstract [show]
A simple approach is described to synthesize and clone an inexhaustible supply of any homozygous and/or heterozygous controls diluted with yeast genomic DNA to mimic human genome equivalents for use throughout the entire multiplex mutation assay. As a proof of principle, the 25 cystic fibrosis mutation panel selected by the American College of Medical Genetics and four additional mutant sequences were prepared as a single control mixture. The 29 CFTR mutations were incorporated into 17 gene fragments by PCR amplification of targeted sequences using mutagenic primers on normal human genomic DNA template. Flanking primers selected to bind beyond all published PCR primer sites amplified controls for most assay platforms. The 17 synthesized 433-933-bp CFTR fragments each with one to four homozygous mutant sequences were cloned into nine plasmid vectors at the multiple cloning site and bidirectionally sequenced. Miniplasmid preps from these nine clones were mixed and diluted with genomic yeast DNA to mimic the final nucleotide molar ratio of two CFTR genes in 6 x 10(9) bp total human genomic DNA. This mixture was added to control PCR reactions prior to amplification as the only positive control sample. In this fashion >200 multiplex clinical PCR analyses of >4,000 clinical patient samples have been controlled simultaneously for PCR amplification and substrate specificity for 29 tested mutations without cross contamination. This clinically validated multiplex cystic fibrosis control can be modified readily for different test formats and provides a robust means to control for all mutations instead of rotating human genomic controls each with a fraction of the mutations. This approach allows scores of additional mutation controls from any gene loci to be added to the same mixture annually.

Abstract [show]
Nonsense mutations inactivate gene function and are the underlying cause of a large percentage of the individual cases of many genetic disorders. PTC124 is an orally bioavailable compound that promotes readthrough of premature translation termination codons, suggesting that it may have the potential to treat genetic diseases caused by nonsense mutations. Using a mouse model for cystic fibrosis (CF), we show that s.c. injection or oral administration of PTC124 to Cftr-/- mice expressing a human CFTR-G542X transgene suppressed the G542X nonsense mutation and restored a significant amount of human (h)CFTR protein and function. Translational readthrough of the premature stop codon was demonstrated in this mouse model in two ways. First, immunofluorescence staining showed that PTC124 treatment resulted in the appearance of hCFTR protein at the apical surface of intestinal glands in Cftr-/- hCFTR-G542X mice. In addition, functional assays demonstrated that PTC124 treatment restored 24-29% of the average cAMP-stimulated transepithelial chloride currents observed in wild-type mice. These results indicate that PTC124 can effectively suppress the hCFTR-G542X nonsense mutation in vivo. In light of its oral bioavailability, safety toxicology profile in animal studies, and efficacy with other nonsense alleles, PTC124 has the potential to be an important therapeutic agent for the treatment of inherited diseases caused by nonsense mutations.

The changing face of the exocrine pancreas in cystic fibrosis: the correlation between pancreatic status, pancreatitis and cystic fibrosis genotype.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study were to determine the current pancreatic status of the entire cystic fibrosis (CF) population of Israel, to analyze the clinical characteristics of the pancreatic sufficient (PS) patients, and to characterize the correlation between pancreatic status, pancreatitis, and CF genotype. METHODS: The Israeli CF database includes 505 patients. These patients were defined as being PS or insufficient according to their fecal pancreatic elastase level or by coefficient fat absorption findings. Mutations were categorized as severe (DeltaF508, W1282X, G542X, S549R, N1303K, Q359K/T360K, 405+1G, and 1717) or mild/variable (3849+10 kb, D1152H, G85E, I1234V, R334W, and 5T) based on disease severity in patients carrying these mutations. Age at diagnosis, presenting symptoms, sweat-chloride concentrations, occurrence of pancreatitis, presence of diabetes, and liver disease were recorded. RESULTS: One hundred and thirty-nine (27.5%) of the CF patients were PS. None carried two mutations associated with severe disease. Over one third (34%) had normal or borderline sweat tests; 20 of these 139 patients had pancreatitis (14.3%) but none of the 366 pancreatic insufficient patients had it. Four initially PS patients became pancreatic insufficient: conversion followed several events of pancreatitis in three of them. Nasal potential differences were all pathological in 35 tested PS patients. None had either diabetes or liver disease. CONCLUSIONS: A substantial number of CF patients are PS. All of them carry at least one mild mutation enabling production of a sufficient amount of normal mRNA to maintain exocrine pancreatic function. Pancreatitis occurs only in CF patients who are PS. These patients are at risk of progressing to pancreatic insufficiency.

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutation associated with a congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens.
Int J Urol. 2008 Mar;15(3):270-1., [PMID:18304229]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutations associated with cystic fibrosis have been reported to be rare in Japanese patients with congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens (CBAVD). A 28-year-old Japanese male was referred for infertility. Vas deferens and epididymis were not palpable bilaterally. Semen analyses showed azoospermia with volumes below 2.0 ml. Serum follicle-stimulating hormone value was slightly elevated. Seminal fructose concentration was also very low. Scrotal ultrasonography showed absence of the bodies and tails of the right and left epididymides. Imaging studies showed cystic dysplasia of the right seminal vesicle and agenesis of the left seminal vesicle. A CFTR gene mutation of I556V was found. Recent studies show that prevalence of CFTR gene mutation in Japanese CBAVD patients may be approximately equal to that of the Caucasian population. Genetic counselling may be recommended for any couple attempting assisted reproduction technology when the man has CBAVD.

29 In our case, we analyzed exons 10 and 11 in the CFTR gene to evaluate the possibility of transmission of CF to newborn because common mutations such as D508, DI507, 551D, G542X, and R553X associated with CF in Caucasians was frequently identified in these exons.1 I556V found in the present case is a mutation initially reported in a French male who had asthma-like bronchopathy and chronic diarrhea, which was recently identified in 10% to 15% of Asians irrespective of chronic respiratory diseases.7 CBAVD is suggested based on the identification of azoospermia with either normal-sized or slightly smaller testes, a non-palpable vas deferens, characteristic imaging findings and the physical and biological properties of the ejaculate: small volume (<2 mL), low pH (<7), and low fructose concentration.1 Most CBAVD patients have defects in the derivatives of the wolffian duct system presenting as an absence of the distal portion of the epididymides, seminal vesicle atrophy or absence, and the absence of the vas deferens by scrotal and transrectal ultrasonography.4,5,9 However, not all men with CBAVD have extensive abnormalities of the derivatives of the wolffian duct system.5,9 Previous studies showed that seminal vesicle anomalies with either agenesis, hypoplasia, or cystic dysplasia occur in 36% to 92% of men with CBAVD.4-6,9 Jarvi et al. showed that all CBAVD patients with at least one CFTR gene mutation had abnormalities of both the seminal vesicles and ampulla of the vas deferens and that 50% of CBAVD patients with no detectable CFTR gene mutation had a normal ampulla of the vas deferens and seminal vesicles.5 Therefore, the frequency and severity of the wolffian duct malformations in the CBAVD patients may be related directly to the CFTR genotype.5 Moreover, previous studies report that 11% to 21% of CBAVD patients had renal agenesis.6,9 Renal agenesis has been reported to occur predominately in men with a congenital absence of vas deferens (CAVD) without CFTR gene mutations.9 However, Casales et al. showed CFTR gene mutations in five of 16 CAVD patients (bilateral absence in six, and unilateral absence in 10) with renal agenesis.6 In addition, CAVD may also be associated with cryptorchidism and inguinal hernia.6 The prevalence of the CFTR gene mutation carrier in the Japanese population may be approximate to that of the Caucasian.1,2 Moreover, infertile patients with CBAVD can now be treated by assisted reproduction technology.1 Genetic counseling may be recommended for any couple attempting assisted reproduction technology when the man has defects of the vas deferens.1-3,8 References 1 Jarzabek K, Zbucka M, Pepiñski W et al.

N-terminal CFTR missense variants severely affect the behavior of the CFTR chloride channel.
Hum Mutat. 2008 May;29(5):738-49., [PMID:18306312]
Abstract [show]
Over 1,500 cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene sequence variations have been identified in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and related disorders involving an impaired function of the CFTR chloride channel. However, detailed structure-function analyses have only been established for a few of them. This study aimed evaluating the impact of eight N-terminus CFTR natural missense changes on channel behavior. By site-directed mutagenesis, we generated four CFTR variants in the N-terminal cytoplasmic tail (p.P5L, p.S50P, p.E60K, and p.R75Q) and four in the first transmembrane segment of membrane-spanning domain 1 (p.G85E/V, p.Y89C, and p.E92K). Immunoblot analysis revealed that p.S50P, p.E60K, p.G85E/V, and p.E92K produced only core-glycosylated proteins. Immunofluorescence and whole cell patch-clamp confirmed intracellular retention, thus reflecting a defect of CFTR folding and/or trafficking. In contrast, both p.R75Q and p.Y89C had a glycosylation pattern and a subcellular distribution comparable to the wild-type CFTR, while the percentage of mature p.P5L was considerably reduced, suggesting a major biogenesis flaw on this channel. Nevertheless, whole-cell chloride currents were recorded for all three variants. Single-channel patch-clamp analyses revealed that the channel activity of p.R75Q appeared similar to that of the wild-type CFTR, while both p.P5L and p.Y89C channels displayed abnormal gating. Overall, our results predict a major impact of the CFTR missense variants analyzed, except p.R75Q, on the CF phenotype and highlight the importance of the CFTR N-terminus on channel physiology.

Distribution of CFTR mutations in Saguenay- Lac-Saint-Jean: proposal of a panel of mutations for population screening.
Genet Med. 2008 Mar;10(3):201-6., [PMID:18344710]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean is a region located in the northeastern part of the Province of Quebec, Canada, and is characterized by a founder effect. In this region, it has been documented that the incidence of cystic fibrosis reached 1/902 live births between 1975 and 1988, three times higher than the average incidence of 1/2500 live births reported in other Caucasian populations. This corresponds to a carrier rate of 1/15. METHODS: Using genotyping data from the Canadian Consortium for Cystic Fibrosis Genetic Studies, this article describes the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator profile of the cystic fibrosis population living in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region and compares it with cystic fibrosis populations living in three other regions of the Province of Quebec. RESULTS: Significant differences in allelic frequencies of common mutations (as DeltaF508, 621 + 1G>T and A455E), and in percentage of covered allele with three or six mutations, were found in Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean compared to other regions. Based on this result, two mutation panels exceeding 90% sensitivity threshold are now proposed for cystic fibrosis carrier screening in this region. CONCLUSION: The implementation of the proposed carrier screening program could diminish the incidence of this disease in this region and allow future parents to make informed decisions about family planning.

Comparative analysis of common CFTR polymorphisms poly-T, TG-repeats and M470V in a healthy Chinese population.
World J Gastroenterol. 2008 Mar 28;14(12):1925-30., 2008-03-28 [PMID:18350634]
Abstract [show]
AIM: To investigate the three important cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) haplotypes poly-T, TG-repeats and the M470V polymorphisms in the Chinese population, and to compare their distribution with that in Caucasians and other Asian populations. METHODS: Genomic DNA was extracted from blood leukocytes. Exons 9 and 10 of the CFTR gene were obtained through polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Exon 9 DNA sequences were directly detected by an automated sequencer and poly-T and TG-repeats were identified by direct sequence analysis. Pure exon 10 PCR-amplified products were digested by HphI restriction enzyme and the M470V mutation was detected by the AGE photos of digestion products. RESULTS: T7 was the most common (93.6%) haplotype and the (TG)11 frequency of 57.2% and (TG)12 frequency of 40.9% were dominant haplotypes in the junction of intron 8 (IVS-8) and exon 9. The frequency of T5 was 3.8% and all T5 allele tracts (10 alleles) were joined with (TG)12. Four new alleles of T6 (1.5%) were found in three healthy individuals. In exon 10, the V allele (56.1%) was slightly more frequent than the M allele (43.9%), and the M/V (45.5%) was the dominant genotype in these individuals. The three major haplotypes T7-(TG)11-V470, T7-(TG)12-M470 and T7-TG11-M470 were related to nearly 86.0% of the population. CONCLUSION: The polymorphisms of poly-T, TG-repeats, and M470V distribution were similar to those in other East Asians, but they had marked differences in frequency from those single haplotype polymorphisms or linkage haplotypes in Caucasians. Thus, they may be able to explain the low incidence of CF and CF-like diseases in Asians.

9 However, in Asians, the prevalence of CF is very low, with an incidence of approximately 1 in 100 000, and in particular, the severe mutations, such as ∆F508, G542X and N1303K, are rarely found in Asians.

CFTR mutations in Turkish and North African cystic fibrosis patients in Europe: implications for screening.

Abstract [show]
AIMS: To obtain more insight into the variability of the CFTR mutations found in immigrant cystic fibrosis (CF) patients who are living in Europe now, and to estimate the test sensitivity of different frequently used methods of DNA analysis to detect CF carriers or patients among these Turkish or North African immigrants. METHODS: A survey among 373 European CF centers asking which CFTR mutations had been found in Turkish and North African CF patients. RESULTS: 31 and 26 different mutations were reported in Turkish and North African patients, identifying 64.2% (113/176) and 87.4% (118/135) alleles, respectively (p < 0.001). The mean sensitivity (detection rate) of three most common CFTR mutation panels to detect these mutations differed between Turkish and North African people, 44.9% (79/176) versus 69.6% (94/135) (p < 0.001), and can be increased to 57.4% (101/176) and 79.3% (107/135) (p < 0.001), respectively, by expanding these panels with 13 mutations which have been found on two or more alleles. CONCLUSION: 35.8% and 12.6%, respectively, of CF alleles in Turkish and North African patients living in Europe now had not been identified. Among these populations, the test sensitivity of common CFTR mutation panels is insufficient for use in screening programs in Europe, even after expansion with frequent Turkish and North African mutations. This raises questions about whether and how to implement CF carrier and neonatal screening in a multiethnic society.

Evaluation and use of a synthetic quality control material, included in the European external quality assessment scheme for cystic fibrosis.
Hum Mutat. 2008 Aug;29(8):1063-70., [PMID:18470946]
Abstract [show]
Assuring high quality within the field of genetic testing is fundamental, as the results can have considerable impact on the patient and his or her family. The use of appropriate quality control (QC) samples is therefore essential. Diagnostic laboratories mainly use patient samples as QC material, which of course include a maximum of two mutations per sample. Bearing in mind that some assays (such as for cystic fibrosis [CF] testing) can test for more than 100 mutations, multiplex QC materials including more than two mutations could save valuable time and reagents. Based on this need, synthetic multiplex controls have been developed by Maine Molecular Quality Controls, Inc. (MMQCI) for CF. A synthetic control, containing six homozygous mutations and one polymorphism for CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), was evaluated by distributing it through the CF external quality assessment (EQA) scheme, along with the EQA samples in 2005. A total of 197 participants returned results of the yearly EQA scheme and 133 laboratories participated in the evaluation of the synthetic sample. Respectively, 76% and 73% of the participants were assigned as successful. This evaluation study revealed that the multiplex QC material performed well in the majority of assays and could be useful in method validation, as a tool to challenge interpretation skills, and as potential proficiency testing (PT) material.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF), the most common life-threatening inherited disease in Caucasians, is due to mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene and is characterized by airways chronic inflammation and pulmonary infections. The inflammatory response is not secondary to the pulmonary infections. Indeed, several studies have shown an increased proinflammatory activity in the CF tissues, regardless of bacterial infections, because inflammation is similarly observed in CFTR-defective cell lines kept in sterile conditions. Despite recent studies that have indicated that CF airway epithelial cells can spontaneously initiate the inflammatory cascade, we still do not have a clear insight of the molecular mechanisms involved in this increased inflammatory response. In this study, to understand these mechanisms, we investigated ex vivo cultures of nasal polyp mucosal explants of CF patients and controls, CFTR-defective IB3-1 bronchial epithelial cells, C38 isogenic CFTR corrected, and 16HBE normal bronchial epithelial cell lines. We have shown that a defective CFTR induces a remarkable up-regulation of tissue transglutaminase (TG2) in both tissues and cell lines. The increased TG2 activity leads to functional sequestration of the anti-inflammatory peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma and increase of the classic parameters of inflammation, such as TNF-alpha, tyrosine phosphorylation, and MAPKs. Specific inhibition of TG2 was able to reinstate normal levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma and dampen down inflammation both in CF tissues and CFTR-defective cells. Our results highlight an unpredicted central role of TG2 in the mechanistic pathway of CF inflammation, also opening a possible new wave of therapies for sufferers of chronic inflammatory diseases.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene that results in abnormal viscous mucoid secretions in multiple organs and whose main clinical features are pancreatic insufficiency and chronic endobronchial infection. Although it was initially defined and diagnosed based on clinical features and sweat chloride measurement, an in vivo method of assessing CFTR function, the discovery of the CFTR gene in 1989 revealed a broad spectrum of CF phenotypes associated with specific CFTR gene mutations. In this article, we will review the indications for sweat testing, alternative techniques to diagnose CF, and the approach to patients with an ambiguous or indeterminate diagnosis of CF.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: Longer survival of patients with cystic fibrosis has increased the occurrence of cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD). In this study we documented the incidence of CFRD and evaluated the association between mutations responsible for cystic fibrosis and incident CFRD, while identifying potential risk factors. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: This was a population-based longitudinal study of 50 cystic fibrosis speciality clinics in the U.K. Subjects included 8,029 individuals aged 0-64 years enrolled in the U.K. Cystic Fibrosis Registry during 1996-2005. Of these, 5,196 with data and without diabetes were included in analyses of incidence, and 3,275 with complete data were included in analyses of risk factors. Diabetes was defined by physician diagnosis, oral glucose tolerance testing, or treatment with hypoglycemic drugs. RESULTS: A total of 526 individuals developed CFRD over 15,010 person-years. The annual incidence was 3.5%. The incidence was higher in female patients and in patients with mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene in classes I and II. In a multivariate model of 377 cases of 3,275 patients, CFTR class (relative risk 1.70 [95% CI 1.16-2.49], class I or II versus others), increasing age, female sex, worse pulmonary function, liver dysfunction, pancreatic insufficiency, and corticosteroid use were independently associated with incident diabetes. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of CFRD is high in Britain. CFTR class I and II mutations increase the risk of diabetes independent of other risk factors including pancreatic exocrine dysfunction.

J Androl. 2008 Sep-Oct;29(5):506-13. Epub 2008 Jun 20., [PMID:18567645]
Abstract [show]
A qualitative diagnosis of infertility requires attention to male and female physical abnormalities including endocrine anomalies and genetic conditions that interfere with reproduction. Many genes are likely to be involved in the complex process of reproduction. Congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) is a genital form of cystic fibrosis (CF) that is responsible for 2%-6% of male infertility. The incidence of CF varies in different populations; therefore, the incidence of CBAVD will also vary in different populations. The spectrum and distribution of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutations differ between CBAVD and CF patients and are comparable to control individuals. Combinations of particular alleles at several polymorphic loci yield insufficient functional CFTR protein. CFTR mutations are also associated with congenital absence of the uterus and vagina (CAUV). Females with CF are found to be less fertile than normal healthy women. Because of techniques such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), CBAVD patients are now able to father children. Such couples, however, have an increased risk of having a child with cystic fibrosis, and therefore genetic testing and counseling should be provided. Around 10% of obstructive azoospermia is congenital and due to mutations in the CF gene. This review highlights the relationship of mutations in the CFTR gene with CBAVD and CAUV.

Molecular analysis of mutations and polymorphisms in the CFTR gene in male infertility.
Reprod Biomed Online. 2008 Jul;17(1):27-35., [PMID:18616886]
Abstract [show]
Mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene and polymorphisms, such as the (TG)m and Tn polymorphic loci in intron 8 at the splice acceptor site of exon 9, can cause male infertility. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of the most prevalent cystic-fibrosis-causing mutations, the IVS8-Tn alleles and IVS8-TG12 variant in the presence of IVS8-5T in patients with altered semen parameters (group I with obstructive azoospermia, group II with secretory azoospermia and group III with severe oligozoospermia) compared with a control group with normozoospermia. CFTR mutations were found in 26.5% and 14.3% of chromosomes of patients of group I and II respectively (P < 0.001, P < 0.05). The frequency of the 5T allele was 23.5% in patients in group I (P < 0.01), and was linked exclusively with TG12 allele. The present study reports for the first time a high proportion of the 5T allele in patients in group III (9.2%, P < 0.05). These results underline the importance of performing molecular analysis of mutations and IVS8-Tn polymorphism in the CFTR gene and appropriate genetic counselling to all couples undergoing assisted reproductive technologies when the partner has azoospermia or severe oligozoospermia.

Guidelines for diagnosis of cystic fibrosis in newborns through older adults: Cystic Fibrosis Foundation consensus report.
J Pediatr. 2008 Aug;153(2):S4-S14., [PMID:18639722]
Abstract [show]
Newborn screening (NBS) for cystic fibrosis (CF) is increasingly being implemented and is soon likely to be in use throughout the United States, because early detection permits access to specialized medical care and improves outcomes. The diagnosis of CF is not always straightforward, however. The sweat chloride test remains the gold standard for CF diagnosis but does not always give a clear answer. Genotype analysis also does not always provide clarity; more than 1500 mutations have been identified in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, not all of which result in CF. Harmful mutations in the gene can present as a spectrum of pathology ranging from sinusitis in adulthood to severe lung, pancreatic, or liver disease in infancy. Thus, CF identified postnatally must remain a clinical diagnosis. To provide guidance for the diagnosis of both infants with positive NBS results and older patients presenting with an indistinct clinical picture, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation convened a meeting of experts in the field of CF diagnosis. Their recommendations, presented herein, involve a combination of clinical presentation, laboratory testing, and genetics to confirm a diagnosis of CF.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: To describe the appearance, prevalence, and possible associations of colonic wall redundancy in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). MATERIALS AND METHODS: The institutional review board approved this HIPAA-compliant study. Abdominal computed tomographic (CT) images of 38 consecutive patients with CF and a control group of 38 consecutive potential renal donors were retrospectively identified. Three readers independently recorded presence and location of colonic wall redundancy and wall thickness of the ascending, transverse, and descending colon. Interobserver agreement for colonic wall redundancy was determined with the kappa statistic. Colonic wall thicknesses were compared between patient groups with the Student t test. Proportions of adult and pediatric patients with and those without colonic wall redundancy and prevalence of specific gene mutations were compared between groups with the Fisher exact test. CT findings were compared with radiologic reports and clinical records. RESULTS: Each reviewer found colonic wall redundancy in 11 of 28 adults with CF but in none of the children with CF (P < .05 for each reviewer). There was excellent interobserver agreement for identification of colonic wall redundancy (kappa = 0.91, P < .001). Mean thickness of the wall of the ascending colon was significantly greater in patients with CF who had colonic wall redundancy (4.0 mm) than in those without this finding (1.8 mm, P < .05) or in control patients (1.2 mm, P < .05). Among adult patients with CF, DeltaF508 mutation was the predominant mutant allele in 10 of 13 patients with normal colons at CT, whereas more uncommon non-DeltaF508 mutations were seen in seven of 10 patients with colonic wall redundancy (P < .05). Asymptomatic colonic wall redundancy at CT was prospectively misinterpreted as acute colonic disease in five adult patients. CONCLUSION: Proximal colonic wall redundancy is seen frequently in adults with CF and may be more common in those with non-DeltaF508 CFTR gene mutations. This finding provides a starting point for further investigation of the molecular basis of colonic phenotype in CF.

Abstract [show]
The increasing number of laboratories offering molecular genetic analysis of the CFTR gene and the growing use of commercial kits strengthen the need for an update of previous best practice guidelines (published in 2000). The importance of organizing regional or national laboratory networks, to provide both primary and comprehensive CFTR mutation screening, is stressed. Current guidelines focus on strategies for dealing with increasingly complex situations of CFTR testing. Diagnostic flow charts now include testing in CFTR-related disorders and in fetal bowel anomalies. Emphasis is also placed on the need to consider ethnic or geographic origins of patients and individuals, on basic principles of risk calculation and on the importance of providing accurate laboratory reports. Finally, classification of CFTR mutations is reviewed, with regard to their relevance to pathogenicity and to genetic counselling.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. This study was performed on Indian CF patients (n = 50) to investigate the spectrum of mutations in the CFTR gene and their association with intragenic and extragenic marker haplotypes. We report identification of 14 previously known and eight novel mutations, namely 3986-3987delC, 876-6del4, 1792InsA, L69H, S158N, Q493L, I530L and E1329Q. The frequency of delta F508 was found to be 27%. Absolute linkage between delta F508 and the KM.19-GATT-TUB9-M470V-T854T haplotype (2-2-1-1-1) predicts a relatively recent appearance of delta F508 in Indian CF patients. Low frequency of delta F508 mutation and detection of eight novel and thirteen rare mutations reflect a heterogeneous spectrum of mutations in Indian CF patients. Failure to detect mutations in 34% of alleles indicates the possible presence of gross deletions involving one or more exons or may indicate the location of the molecular defects in either the noncoding parts of the gene or in the promoter region, which warrants analysis of those regions.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by a defect in the transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein that functions as a chloride channel. Dysfunction of the CFTR protein results in salty sweat, pancreatic insufficiency, intestinal obstruction, male infertility and severe pulmonary disease. In most patients with CF life expectancy is limited due to a progressive loss of functional lung tissue. Early in life a persistent neutrophylic inflammation can be demonstrated in the airways. The cause of this inflammation, the role of CFTR and the cause of lung morbidity by different CF-specific bacteria, mostly Pseudomonas aeruginosa, are not well understood. The lack of an appropriate animal model with multi-organ pathology having the characteristics of the human form of CF has hampered our understanding of the pathobiology and chronic lung infections of the disease for many years. This review summarizes the main characteristics of CF and focuses on several available animal models that have been frequently used in CF research. A better understanding of the chronic lung infection caused particularly by P. aeruginosa, the pathophysiology of lung inflammation and the pathogenesis of lung disease necessitates animal models to understand CF, and to develop and improve treatment.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the CFTR gene. Among males with CF, 95% are infertile due to congenital absence of the vas deferens. We investigated the role of family history of infertility among CF subjects and characterized mutations in them. Among 50 CF subjects, four had a family history of infertility. A homozygous c.1521_1523delCTT mutation was detected in one, two had a compound heterozygous genotype (c.1521_1523delCTT/c.3717 + 10 kbC>T), and c.1521_1523delCTT mutation was identified on one allele of fourth CF subject. Genetic analysis of each infertile family members of CF subjects revealed the c.1521_1523delCTT mutation on one allele; however, no mutation could be identified on other allele. Haplotype analysis of the infertile family members showed that at least one of the alleles shared the same haplotype as that of the index case. It is suggested that the CFTR gene is implicated in the infertile members of the CF families. Failure to detect mutations on the other allele by SSCP analysis demands direct gene sequencing to detect mutations in the intronic or promoter region.

Abstract [show]
We have been investigating the functional consequences of rare disease-associated amino acid substitutions in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Mutations of the arginine residue at codon 1070 have been associated with different disease consequences; R1070P and R1070Q with "severe" pancreatic insufficient cystic fibrosis (CF) and R1070W with "mild" pancreatic sufficient CF or congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens. Intriguingly, CFTR bearing each of these mutations is functional when expressed in nonpolarized cells. To determine whether R1070 mutations cause disease by affecting CFTR localization, we created polarized Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell lines that express either wild-type or mutant CFTR from the same genomic integration site. Confocal microscopy and biotinylation studies revealed that R1070P was not inserted into the apical membrane, R1070W was inserted at levels reduced from wild-type while R1070Q was present in the apical membrane at levels comparable to wild-type. The abnormal localization of CFTR bearing R1070P and R1070W was consistent with deleterious consequences in patients; however, the profile of CFTR R1070Q was inconsistent with a "severe" phenotype. Reanalysis of 16 patients with the R1070Q mutation revealed that 11 carried an in cis nonsense mutation, S466X. All 11 patients carrying the complex allele R1070Q-S466X had severe disease, while 4 out of 5 patients with R1070Q had "mild" disease, thereby reconciling the apparent discrepancy between the localization studies of R1070Q and the phenotype of patients bearing this mutation. Our results emphasize that localization studies in relevant model systems can greatly assist the interpretation of the disease-causing potential of rare missense mutations.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), cationic trypsinogen gene (PRSS1), and serine protease inhibitor kazal type 1 (SPINK1) gene mutations have been associated with chronic pancreatitis (CP). The aim of this study was to compare clinical and radiological findings in sporadic CP with (CPgm) and without (CPwt) gene mutations. METHODS: Data from patients observed between 2001 and 2006 were collected. All patients were tested for 25 CFTR gene mutations, for R122H and N29I on the PRSS1 gene, and for N34S mutation on the SPINK1 gene. RESULTS: We found 34 (17.2%) of 198 patients with CPgm, 23 (11.6%) of them on the CFTR gene, 11 (5.6%) on the SPINK1, and none on the PRSS1 gene. The age at clinical onset was younger in CPgm (36.2 +/- 17.2 years) than in CPwt (44 +/- 12.6 years; P = 0.005). There were more heavy drinkers among CPwt (33%) than among CPgm (9%; P = 0.003), and the same applied to smokers (69% vs 33%, respectively; P < 0.0001). In CPgm group, the onset of pancreatic calcifications was observed more frequently in drinkers and/or smokers. Exocrine and endocrine insufficiency occurred less frequently and later in CPgm than in CPwt patients. CONCLUSIONS: Clinical and radiological outcome differ in CPgm compared with CPwt. Alcohol, even in small quantities, and cigarette smoking influence the onset of pancreatic calcifications.

Clinical practice and genetic counseling for cystic fibrosis and CFTR-related disorders.
Genet Med. 2008 Dec;10(12):851-68., [PMID:19092437]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator-related disorders encompass a disease spectrum from focal male reproductive tract involvement in congenital absence of the vas deferens to multiorgan involvement in classic cystic fibrosis. The reproductive, gastrointestinal, and exocrine manifestations of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator deficiency are correlated with CFTR genotype, whereas the respiratory manifestations that are the main cause of morbidity and mortality in cystic fibrosis are less predictable. Molecular genetic testing of CFTR has led to new diagnostic strategies and will enable targeting of molecular therapies now in development. Older diagnostic methods that measure sweat chloride and nasal potential difference nonetheless remain important because of their sensitivity and specificity. In addition, the measurement of immunoreactive trypsinogen and the genotyping of CFTR alleles are key to newborn screening programs because of low cost. The multiorgan nature of cystic fibrosis leads to a heavy burden of care, thus therapeutic regimens are tailored to the specific manifestations present in each patient. The variability of cystic fibrosis lung disease and the variable expressivity of mild CFTR alleles complicate genetic counseling for this autosomal recessive disorder. Widespread implementation of newborn screening programs among populations with significant cystic fibrosis mutation carrier frequencies is expected to result in increasing demands on genetic counseling resources.

Abstract [show]
Aminoglycosides such as gentamicin have the ability to suppress translation termination at premature stop mutations, leading to a partial restoration of protein expression and function. This observation led to studies showing that this approach may provide a viable treatment for patients with genetic diseases such as cystic fibrosis that are caused by premature stop mutations. Although aminoglycoside treatment is sometimes associated with harmful side effects, several studies have shown that the co-administration of polyanions such as poly-L-aspartic acid (PAA) can both reduce toxicity and increase the intracellular aminoglycoside concentration. In the current study we examined how the co-administration of gentamicin with PAA influenced the readthrough of premature stop codons in cultured cells and a cystic fibrosis mouse model. Using a dual luciferase readthrough reporter system in cultured cells, we found that the co-administration of gentamicin with PAA increased readthrough 20-40% relative to cells treated with the same concentration of gentamicin alone. Using a Cftr-/- hCFTR-G542X mouse model, we found that PAA also increased the in vivo nonsense suppression induced by gentamicin. Following the withdrawal of gentamicin, PAA significantly prolonged the time interval during which readthrough could be detected, as shown by short circuit current measurements and immunofluorescence. Because the use of gentamicin to suppress disease-causing nonsense mutations will require their long term administration, the ability of PAA to reduce toxicity and increase both the level and duration of readthrough has important implications for this promising therapeutic approach.

Heterogenous spectrum of CFTR gene mutations in Indian patients with congenital absence of vas deferens.
Hum Reprod. 2009 May;24(5):1229-36. Epub 2009 Jan 30., [PMID:19181743]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene can cause congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens. Yet, the spectrum and frequency of CFTR mutations in Indian males with congenital absence of vas deferens (CAVD) is unknown. METHODS: We investigated 50 Indian males, diagnosed with unilateral or bilateral absence of vas deferens at the PGIMER, Chandigarh, for the presence of the most common CFTR gene mutations as well as unknown mutations by single-strand conformation polymorphism followed by sequence analysis. RESULTS: This study led to the identification of 12 CFTR gene mutations on 48% of 100 Indian CAVD chromosomes. CFTR mutations were identified on both alleles in 11 patients (22%) and on one allele in 26 patients (52%). Novel CFTR mutations identified were L69H, F87I, G126S, F157C, E543A, Y852F and D1270E. The T5 allele (25%) and F508del (11%) were the most common mutations identified. The most common intragenic marker haplotype for F508del was 2111 (GATT, TUB9, M470V and T854T). No mutations could be detected in 13 CAVD patients (26%), including 4 with renal malformations. CONCLUSIONS: This study confirms the molecular heterogeneity of CFTR mutations in CAVD. Although the mutation detection rate is indeed lower in Indian CAVD patients, 74% of the patients tested had at least one CFTR mutation. CAVD alleles with no mutations suggest that other changes may be located at the non-screened sites that require extensive search by direct sequencing. Furthermore, the novel CFTR mutations identified require functional studies in a cell-based system.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common fatal autosomal recessive disorders in the Caucasian population caused by mutations of gene for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). New experimental therapeutic strategies for CF propose a diet supplementation to affect the plasma membrane fluidity and to modulate amplified inflammatory response. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) and vitamin B12 supplementation for ameliorating cell plasma membrane features in pediatric patients with cystic fibrosis. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: A single arm trial was conducted from April 2004 to March 2006 in an Italian CF care centre. 31 children with CF aged from 3 to 8 years old were enrolled. Exclusion criteria were diabetes, chronic infections of the airways and regular antibiotics intake. Children with CF were supplemented for 24 weeks with 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF, 7.5 mg /day) and vitamin B12 (0.5 mg/day). Red blood cells (RBCs) were used to investigate plasma membrane, since RBCs share lipid, protein composition and organization with other cell types. We evaluated RBCs membrane lipid composition, membrane protein oxidative damage, cation content, cation transport pathways, plasma and RBCs folate levels and plasma homocysteine levels at baseline and after 24 weeks of 5-MTHF and vitamin B12 supplementation. In CF children, 5-MTHF and vitamin B12 supplementation (i) increased plasma and RBC folate levels; (ii) decreased plasma homocysteine levels; (iii) modified RBC membrane phospholipid fatty acid composition; (iv) increased RBC K(+) content; (v) reduced RBC membrane oxidative damage and HSP70 membrane association. CONCLUSION AND SIGNIFICANCE: 5-MTHF and vitamin B12 supplementation might ameliorate RBC membrane features of children with CF. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00730509.

A novel approach to CFTR mutation testing by pyrosequencing-based assay panels adapted to ethnicities.
Clin Chem. 2009 Jun;55(6):1083-91. Epub 2009 Apr 16., [PMID:19372188]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a common autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by a variety of sequence alterations in the CFTR gene [cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (ATP-binding cassette sub-family C, member 7)]. Because the relative prevalence of mutations strongly depends on the ethnic background, first-level testing of CF as defined by recent consensus recommendations ought to be adaptable to the ethnicity of patients. METHODS: We therefore developed and implemented a diagnostic approach to first-level testing for CF based on published mutation frequencies and Pyrosequencing (PSQ) technology that we complemented with standard procedures of mutation detection at the second level. RESULTS: The current test system of PSQ assays for 46 target CF mutations [including CFTRdele2,3 (21 kb) and 1342-6 (T)(n) (5T/7T/9T)] permits recombinations of single assays to optimize sensitivities for certain ethnicities. By easy expansion of the original mutation panel, the first-level test sensitivities with other ethnic groups would be increased, provided that the mutation frequencies are known. The test was validated with our local, ethnically mixed, but mainly German population (155 patients). The mutation-detection rate for the 92 patients whose CF was confirmed by the sweat test was 89.0% for the patients of German descent (73 of the 92 patients) and 73.7% for the patients of any other origin (19 of the 92 patients). Ethnicity-adapted testing panels for our foreign CF patients would increase the sensitivities for the respective groups by approximately 5%. CONCLUSIONS: PSQ-based genotyping is a reliable, convenient, highly flexible, and inexpensive alternative to conventional methods for first-level testing of CFTR, facilitating flexible adaptation of the analyzed mutation panel to any local ethnic group.

Abstract [show]
Chronic bacterial airway infections are the major cause of mortality in cystic fibrosis (CF). Normal airway defenses include reflex stimulation of submucosal gland mucus secretion by sensory neurons that release substance P (SubP). CFTR is an anion channel involved in fluid secretion and mutated in CF; the role of CFTR in secretions stimulated by SubP is unknown. We used optical methods to measure SubP-mediated secretion from human submucosal glands in lung transplant tissue. Glands from control but not CF subjects responded to mucosal chili oil. Similarly, serosal SubP stimulated secretion in more than 60% of control glands but only 4% of CF glands. Secretion triggered by SubP was synergistic with vasoactive intestinal peptide and/or forskolin but not with carbachol; synergy was absent in CF glands. Pig glands demonstrated a nearly 10-fold greater response to SubP. In 10 of 11 control glands isolated by fine dissection, SubP caused cell volume loss, lumen expansion, and mucus flow, but in 3 of 4 CF glands, it induced lumen narrowing. Thus, in CF, the reduced ability of mucosal irritants to stimulate airway gland secretion via SubP may be another factor that predisposes the airways to infections.

IL1B polymorphisms modulate cystic fibrosis lung disease.

Abstract [show]
RATIONALE: Variability in pulmonary disease severity is found in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) who have identical mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. We hypothesized that one factor accounting for heterogeneity in pulmonary disease severity is variation in the family of genes affecting the biology of interleukin-1 (IL-1), which impacts acquisition and maintenance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in animal models of chronic infection. METHODS: We genotyped 58 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the IL-1 gene cluster in 808 CF subjects from the University of North Carolina and Case Western Reserve University (UNC/CWRU) joint cohort. All were homozygous for DeltaF508, and categories of "severe" (cases) or "mild" (control subjects) lung disease were defined by the lowest or highest quartile of forced expired volume (FEV(1)) for age in the CF population. After adjustment for age and gender, genotypic data were tested for association with lung disease severity. Odds ratios (ORs) comparing severe versus mild CF were also calculated for each genotype (with the homozygote major allele as the reference group) for all 58 SNPs. From these analyses, nine SNPs with a moderate effect size, OR < or =0.5 or >1.5, were selected for further testing. To replicate the case-control study results, we genotyped the same nine SNPs in a second population of CF parent-offspring trios (recruited from Children's Hospital Boston), in which the offspring had similar pulmonary phenotypes. For the trio analysis, both family-based and population-based associations were performed. RESULTS: SNPs rs1143634 and rs1143639 in the IL1B gene demonstrated a consistent association with lung disease severity categories (P < 0.10) and longitudinal analysis of lung disease severity (P < 0.10) in CF in both the case-control and family-based studies. In females, there was a consistent association (false discovery rate adjusted joint P-value <0.06 for both SNPs) in both the analysis of lung disease severity in the UNC/CWRU cohort and the family-based analysis of affection status. CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that IL1beta is a clinically relevant modulator of CF lung disease.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Molecular diagnosis for cystic fibrosis (CF) is based on the direct identification of mutations in the CFTR gene [cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (ATP-binding cassette sub-family C, member 7)] (detection rate about 90% with scanning procedures) and on segregation analysis of intragenic polymorphisms for carrier and prenatal diagnosis in about 20% of CF families in which 1 or both causal mutations are unknown. METHODS: We identified 3 novel intragenic polymorphic repeats (IVS3polyA, IVS4polyA, and IVS10CA repeats) in the CFTR gene and developed and validated a procedure based on the PCR followed by capillary electrophoresis for large-scale analysis of these polymorphisms and the 4 previously identified microsatellites (IVS1CA, IVS8CA, IVS17bTA, and IVS17bCA repeats) in a single run. We validated the procedure for both single- and 2-cell samples (for a possible use in preimplantation diagnosis), and on a large number of CF patients bearing different genotypes and non-CF controls. RESULTS: The allelic distribution and heterozygosity results suggest that the 3 novel polymorphisms strongly contribute to carrier and prenatal diagnosis of CF in families in which 1 or both causal mutations have not been identified. At least 1 of the 4 previously identified microsatellites was informative in 78 of 100 unrelated CF families; at least 1 of all 7 polymorphisms was informative in 98 of the families. Finally, the analysis of haplotypes for the 7 polymorphisms revealed that most CF mutations are associated with different haplotypes, suggesting multiple slippage events but a single origin for most CFTR mutations. CONCLUSIONS: The analysis of the 7 polymorphisms is a rapid and efficient tool for routine carrier, prenatal, and preimplantation diagnosis of CF.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a monogenic disease caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. CF is characterized by chronic bacterial lung infections and inflammation, and we have previously reported that tissue transglutaminase (TG2), a multifunctional enzyme critical to several diseases, is constitutively up-regulated in CF airways and drives chronic inflammation. Here, we demonstrate that the generation of an oxidative stress induced by CFTR-defective function leads to protein inhibitor of activated STAT (PIAS)y-mediated TG2 SUMOylation and inhibits TG2 ubiquitination and proteasome degradation, leading to sustained TG2 activation. This prevents peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)gamma and IkBalpha SUMOylation, leading to NF-kappaB activation and to an uncontrolled inflammatory response. Cellular homeostasis can be restored by small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)-1 or PIASy gene silencing, which induce TG2 ubiquitination and proteasome degradation, restore PPARgamma SUMOylation, and prevent IkBalpha cross-linking and degradation, thus switching off inflammation. Manganese superoxide dismutase overexpression as well as the treatment with the synthetic superoxide dismutase mimetic EUK-134 control PIASy-TG2 interaction and TG2 SUMOylation. TG2 inhibition switches off inflammation in vitro as well as in vivo in a homozygous F508del-CFTR mouse model. Thus, TG2 may function as a link between oxidative stress and inflammation by driving the decision as to whether a protein should undergo SUMO-mediated regulation or degradation. Targeting TG2-SUMO interactions might represent a new option to control disease evolution in CF patients as well as in other chronic inflammatory diseases, neurodegenerative pathologies, and cancer.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: For nearly 50 years the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) has depended on measurements of sweat chloride concentration. While the validity of this test is universally accepted, increasing diagnostic challenges and the search for adequate biomarker assays to support curative-orientated clinical drug trials have created a new demand for accurate, reliable and more practical CF tests. A novel concept is proposed that may provide a more efficient real-time method for assessing CFTR function in vivo. METHODS: Cholinergic and beta-adrenergic agonists were iontophoresed to stimulate sweating. The bioelectric potential from stimulated sweat glands (SPD) was measured in vivo using a standard ECG electrode applied to the skin surface. SPD and sweat chloride concentrations were compared in cohorts predicted to express a range of CFTR function as presented by healthy controls (HC), heterozygotes (Hz), pancreatic sufficient (CFPS) and pancreatic insufficient patients with CF (CFPI). RESULTS: The median SPD was hyperpolarized in patients with CF compared with control subjects (-47.4 mV vs -14.5 mV, p<0.001). In distinguishing between control and CF subjects, SPD (area under receiver operator curve (AUC) = 0.997) was similar to sweat chloride concentration (AUC = 0.986). Sequential cholinergic/beta-adrenergic sweat stimulation dramatically depolarised the SPD in patients with CF (p<0.001) but had no effect in control subjects (p = 0.6) or on the sweat chloride concentration in either group (p>0.5). Furthermore, the positive SPD response was larger in CFPI than in CFPS subjects (p = 0.04). CONCLUSION: These results support the concept that skin surface voltages arising from stimulated sweat glands can be exploited to assess expressed CFTR function in vivo and may prove to be a useful diagnostic tool.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a common recessive disorder caused by >1600 mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. About 13% of CFTR mutations are classified as "splicing mutations," but for almost 40% of these, their role in affecting the pre-mRNA splicing of the gene is not yet defined. In this work, we describe a new splicing mutation detected in three unrelated Italian CF patients. By DNA analyses and mRNA studies, we identified the c.1002-1110_1113delTAAG mutation localized in intron 6b of the CFTR gene. At the mRNA level, this mutation creates an aberrant inclusion of a sequence of 101 nucleotides between exons 6b and 7. This sequence corresponds to a portion of intron 6b and resembles a cryptic exon because it is characterized by an upstream ag and a downstream gt sequence, which are most probably recognized as 5'- and 3'-splice sites by the spliceosome. Through functional analysis of this splicing defect, we show that this mutation abolishes the interaction of the splicing regulatory protein heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1 with an intronic splicing regulatory element and creates a new recognition motif for the SRp75 splicing factor, causing activation of the cryptic exon. Our results show that the c.1002-1110_1113delTAAG mutation creates a new intronic splicing regulatory element in intron 6b of the CFTR gene exclusively recognized by SRp75.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a complicated disease involving many organ systems. Identification of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) genetic code has not only enhanced our understanding of the mechanism of CF pathology but has also provided explanations for phenotypic variation. Additionally, genetic testing has refined our ability to identify patients with CF and CF-related illnesses. Genetic mutations may be grouped by class (I-VI) and are directly related to the quantity of CFTR protein produced. This has direct implications regarding the severity of disease and has suggested organ-specific sensitivity to the presence of normally functioning CFTR. Further, it has improved understanding of the mechanism behind seemingly organ-specific manifestations of CF, such as congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBVAD).

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis is a lethal autosomal recessive disorder usually associated with lung disease, pancreatic insufficiency and high sweat chloride levels. CLINICAL CASE: A patient admitted to Le Bonheur Children's Medical Center (LBCMC, Memphis, TN) showed symptoms of meconium ileus which required exploratory laparotomy, bowel resection and ileostomy. Genotyping showed DeltaF508/I1027T on one chromosome and S1118F on the other. Sweat testing on three different occasions gave negative and intermediate results (22.7, 24.6 mmol/L; 55.1, 58.6 mmol/L and 55.1, 58 mmol/L) and pancreatic elastase testing showed normal levels. OBJECTIVE: To characterize S1118F-CFTR mutation at a molecular level to help understand the associated CF-phenotype. METHODS: Molecular characterization of S1118F-CFTR mutant was studied in HEK-293 cells at 37 degrees C. Various biochemical methods such as Western blotting, real-time PCR, Pulse chase labeling and iodide efflux assay were employed. RESULTS: S1118F-CFTR makes less than 10-15% of mature CFTR (band C) compared to WT-CFTR. The mRNA levels of S1118F-CFTR and WT-CFTR are comparable. S1118F-CFTR is functional but shows about 10-15% of WT-CFTR activity. S1118F-CFTR shows impaired maturation and CF-correctors can increase the amount of mature and functional CFTR by three- to fourfold. CONCLUSION: S1118F-CFTR shows impaired maturation and an individual with S1118F-CFTR paired with DeltaF508-CFTR exhibits atypical CF symptoms with intermediate sweat chloride level and meconium ileus despite documented pancreatic sufficiency.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common inherited, life-shortening condition affecting Australian children. The carrier frequency is one per 25 and most babies with CF are born to parents with no family history. Carrier testing is possible before a couple has an affected infant. AIMS: To report the outcomes of a carrier screening program for CF. METHOD: Carrier screening was offered to women and couples planning a pregnancy, or in early pregnancy, through obstetricians and general practitioners in Victoria, Australia. Samples were collected by cheek swab and posted to the laboratory. Twelve CFTR gene mutations were tested. Carriers were offered genetic counselling and partner testing. Carrier couples were offered prenatal testing by chorionic villous sampling (CVS) if pregnant. The number of people tested, carriers detected and pregnancy outcomes were recorded from January 2006 to December 2008. RESULTS: A total of 3200 individuals were screened (3000 females). One hundred and six carriers were identified (one per 30, 95% confidence interval one per 25, one per 36). All carrier partners were screened, and nine carrier couples identified (total carriers 115). Ninety-six individuals (83%) were carriers of the p.508del mutation. Of the nine carrier couples, six were pregnant at the time of screening (five natural conception and one in vitro fertilisation) and all had CVS (mean gestation 12.5 weeks). Two fetuses were affected, three were carriers and one was not a carrier. Termination of pregnancy was undertaken for the affected fetuses. CONCLUSION: Carrier screening for CF by obstetricians and general practitioners by cheek swab sample can be successfully undertaken prior to pregnancy or in the early stages of pregnancy.

Non-classic cystic fibrosis associated with D1152H CFTR mutation.
Clin Genet. 2010 Apr;77(4):355-64. Epub 2009 Oct 15., [PMID:19843100]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Limited knowledge exists on phenotypes associated with the D1152H cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutation. METHODS: Subjects with a D1152H allele in trans with another CFTR mutation were identified using the French Cystic Fibrosis Registry. Phenotypic characteristics were compared with those of pancreatic insufficient (PI) and pancreatic sufficient (PS) cystic fibrosis (CF) subjects in the Registry (CF cohort). RESULTS: Forty-two subjects with D1152H alleles were identified. Features leading to diagnosis included chronic sinopulmonary disease (n = 25), congenital absence of the vas deferens (n = 11), systematic neonatal screening (n = 4), and genetic counseling (n = 2). Median age at diagnosis was 33 [interquartile range (IQR, 24-41)] years in D1152H subjects. Median sweat chloride concentrations were 43.5 (39-63) mmol/l in D1152H subjects and were markedly lower than in PI and PS CF subjects (p < 0.05). Bronchiectasis was present in 67% of D1152H subjects, but Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonization and pancreatic insufficiency were present in <30% of subjects. Estimated rates of decline in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV(1)) were lower in D1152H subjects vs PI CF subjects (p < 0.05). None of the D1152H subjects identified since 1999 had died or required lung transplantation. CONCLUSIONS: When present in trans with a CF-causing mutation, D1152H causes significant pulmonary disease, but all subjects had prolonged survival.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common autosomal recessive genetic disorders, with the majority of patients born to couples unaware of their carrier status. Carrier screenings might help reducing the incidence of CF. METHODS: We used a semi-automated reverse-dot blot assay identifying the 47 most common CFTR gene mutations followed by DGGE/dHPLC analysis. RESULTS: Results of a 10-year (1996-2006) CF carrier screening on 57,999 individuals with no prior family history of CF are reported. Of these, 25,104 were couples and 7791 singles, with 77.9% from the Italian Veneto region. CFTR mutations were found in 1879 carriers (frequency 1/31), with DeltaF508 being the most common (42.6%). Subjects undergoing medically assisted reproduction (MAR) had significantly (p<0.0001) higher CF carrier frequency (1/22 vs 1/32) compared to non-MAR subjects. CONCLUSIONS: If coupled to counselling programmes, CF carrier screening tests might help reducing the CF incidence.

Pharmacol Ther. 2010 Feb;125(2):219-29. Epub 2009 Nov 10., [PMID:19903491]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), an anion channel expressed in epithelial cells throughout the body. In the lungs, absence or dysfunction of CFTR results in altered epithelial salt and water transport eventuating in impaired mucociliary clearance, chronic infection and inflammation, and tissue damage. CF lung disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in CF despite the many therapies aimed at reducing it. However, recent technological advances combined with two decades of research driven by the discovery of the CFTR gene have resulted in the development and clinical testing of novel therapies aimed at the principal underlying defect in CF, thereby ushering in a new age of therapy for CF.

Aquagenic wrinkling of the palms in cystic fibrosis: comparison with controls and genotype-phenotype correlations.
Arch Dermatol. 2009 Nov;145(11):1296-9., [PMID:19917960]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of aquagenic wrinkling of the palms (AWP) in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) compared with control patients, and evaluate for genotype-phenotype correlations. Since its first description over 30 years ago, AWP has frequently been anecdotally associated with CF, but this association has not been confirmed in a rigorous prospective case-control study. DESIGN: Blinded comparison. SETTING: The CF and dermatology clinics at St Louis Children's Hospital. PARTICIPANTS: Forty-four individuals with CF from a CF clinic and 26 controls from a dermatology clinic. Intervention Participants were tested for AWP using 3 minutes of water immersion with room-temperature tap water. Main Outcome Measure The degree of AWP was scored from 0 (no wrinkling) to 4 (severe wrinkling) by 3 blinded physicians. For genotype-phenotype correlations, patients with CF were divided into those homozygous for the DeltaF508 mutation and those with other genotypes. RESULTS: The mean AWP score of the CF group was significantly higher than the mean score of the control group (1.5 vs 0.6; P < .001). Patients with CF who were homozygous for the DeltaF508 mutation (n = 27) had significantly higher scores than patients with CF who were not homozygous for the DeltaF508 mutation (n = 17) (1.7 vs 1.1; P = .02). The 17 patients with CF who were not homozygous for the DeltaF508 mutation still had higher scores than the control group (1.1 vs 0.6; P = .03). There was no correlation between sweat chloride concentrations measured at the time of diagnosis and AWP score. CONCLUSIONS: Our results confirm the association between AWP and CF. Among patients with CF, greater AWP occurs in those who are homozygous for the DeltaF508 mutation.

Abstract [show]
The goal of the present study was to provide a complete and updated spectrum of cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutations in the Brazilian population combining all available in silico data for patients with CF in Brazil, including founder background and migration flow that consisted of the actual genetic pool of the Brazilian population. Information sources in international databases (PUBMED and SCIELO) were searched. The Brazilian population shows a wide variation in the frequency of CFTR mutations in states Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Santa Catarina (SC), Parana (PR), Sao Paulo (SP), Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Minas Gerais (MG), Para (PA) and Bahia (BA); this variation includes the most common mutation p.F508del. Apparently, this frequency variation is because of the different ethnic compositions. States such as SC and PR have a greater European admixture with almost 90% of CF alleles identified. In other states, such as BA, higher frequency of alleles that are common among African populations is seen. Overall, the CFTR mutational spectrum indicates the presence of European, African and Amerindian ethnic groups in the contemporary Brazilian CF patients. Here, we present an analysis of the CFTR allelic heterogeneity and discuss the origin of its genetic composition, in an attempt to provide improved perspective for the CF population screening in Brazil and genetic counseling.

Gut. 2010 Mar;59(3):357-63. Epub 2009 Dec 1., [PMID:19951905]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To characterise the phenotypes associated with the p.A16V mutation of PRSS1. DESIGN: Clinical and epidemiological data were collected for any family in which a p.A16V mutation was identified, either referred directly to the European Registry of Hereditary Pancreatitis and Familial Pancreatic Cancer or via a collaborator. DNA samples were tested for mutations in PRSS1, SPINK1, CFTR and CTRC. PATIENTS: Participants were recruited on the basis of either family history of pancreatitis (acute or chronic) or the results of genetic testing. Families were categorised as having hereditary pancreatitis (HP), idiopathic disease or pancreatitis in a single generation. HP was defined as >or=2 cases in >or=2 generations. Main outcome measures Onset of painful episodes of pancreatitis, death from pancreatic cancer, diagnosis of diabetes mellitus and exocrine pancreatic failure. RESULTS: Ten families with p.A16V mutations were identified (22 affected individuals): six HP families, three with idiopathic disease and one with only a single generation affected. The median age of onset, ignoring non-penetrants, was 10 years (95% CI 5 to 25). There were eight confirmed cases of exocrine failure, four of whom also had diabetes mellitus. There were three pancreatic cancer cases. Two of these were confirmed as p.A16V carriers, only one of whom was affected by pancreatitis. Those with p.A16V pancreatitis were compared to affected individuals with p.R122H, p.N29I and no PRSS1 mutation. No significant differences were proven using logrank or Mann-Whitney U tests. CONCLUSIONS: Penetrance of p.A16V is highly variable and family dependent, suggesting it contributes to multigenic inheritance of a predisposition to pancreatitis.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: To evaluate the hierarchical phenotypic expression of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) genotypes in the respiratory system as has been documented in the pancreas. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study was institutional review board approved; informed consent was not required. HIPAA guidelines were followed. Genotype effects were assessed by using chest radiographic and pulmonary function test (PFT) results in 93 patients. Serial chest radiographic and PFT (percentage of predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second [FEV(1)], percentage of predicted forced vital capacity [FVC]) results were compared by using analysis of variance with repeated measures. By using CFTR class of mutations, two groups were created: group S (severe disease) and group M (mild disease). Within group S, three subgroups were created: A consisted of patients with two class I alleles; B, class I allele and class II or III allele; C, class II allele and class II or III allele. Group M consisted of patients with at least one allele from class IV-VI. RESULTS: Within group S, subgroup A had a faster deterioration than B or C according to radiographic data (A vs B, P = .014; A vs C, P = .009), with only a borderline difference in FEV(1) for subgroups A versus C (P = .031). Otherwise, PFTs were not sensitive for distinguishing subgroups. Only radiographic results identified that subgroup B had faster progression than C (P = .003); all parameters had trends of decline in the same direction. Group S had a faster decline than group M (radiography, P = .005; FVC, P = .011; FEV(1), P = .529). CONCLUSION: Disease progressed more rapidly with gene class hierarchical correlations seen in pancreatic disease. Radiography was more sensitive for identifying differences.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether genetic modifiers of cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease also predispose to congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) in association with cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations. We tested the hypothesis that polymorphisms of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 (rs 1982073, rs 1800471) and endothelin receptor type A (EDNRA) (rs 5335, rs 1801708) are associated with the CBAVD phenotype. DESIGN: Genotyping of subjects with clinical CBAVD. SETTING: Outpatient and hospital-based clinical evaluation. PATIENT(S): DNA samples from 80 subjects with CBAVD and 51 healthy male controls from various regions of Europe. This is one of the largest genetic studies of this disease to date. INTERVENTION(S): None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Genotype analysis. RESULT(S): For single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs 5335, we found increased frequency of the CC genotype among subjects with CBAVD. The difference was significant among Turkish patients versus controls (45.2% vs. 19.4%), and between all cases versus controls (36% vs. 15.7%). No associations between CBAVD penetrance and polymorphisms rs 1982073, rs 1800471, or rs 1801708 were observed. CONCLUSION(S): Our findings indicate that endothelin receptor type A polymorphism rs 5335 may be associated with CBAVD penetrance. To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate genetic modifiers relevant to CBAVD.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Publications on etiology of chronic pancreatitis (CP) are infrequent. Etiologies today encompass genetic disorders. We wanted to describe etiologies of today and identify patients with genetic disorders like hereditary pancreatitis (HP), mutations in Serine Protease Inhibitor Kazal type1 (SPINK1), and the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator gene (CFTR) among patients formerly considered to have idiopathic CP. METHODS: Data on patients diagnosed with first-time CP < 30 years of age in Denmark identified in the Danish National Registry of Patients were retrieved. Patients previously considered to have idiopathic pancreatitis were offered genetic counseling and evaluation for HP, SPINK1, and CFTR mutations. RESULTS: In the period 1980-2004, 580 patients < 30 years of age presented with CP, the standardized prevalence ratio of CP increased from 11.7 per 100,000 person years in 1980-1984 to 17.0 per 100,000 in 2000-2004 (p < 0.001). The odds ratio (OR) having gallstone-related CP increased in the latter time period, especially in women, that of alcohol-induced CP decreased over time. OR having idiopathic CP increased in the latter period; 50% of patients with idiopathic pancreatitis accepted genetic reevaluation; 28 patients had a genetic mutation that totally or partly could explain their pancreatitis, nine of these had two, and 11 patients had HP. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of CP, especially in women, increased over time. Genetic causes that partly or totally could explain the CP were found in 54.90% (95% CI (40.45-68.62)) of those with idiopathic CP, as a minimum estimation 1.9% (95% CI (1.00-3.47)) of the total cohort had HP.

Pharmacological correction of a defect in PPAR-gamma signaling ameliorates disease severity in Cftr-deficient mice.
Nat Med. 2010 Mar;16(3):313-8. Epub 2010 Feb 14., [PMID:20154695]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (encoded by Cftr) that impair its role as an apical chloride channel that supports bicarbonate transport. Individuals with cystic fibrosis show retained, thickened mucus that plugs airways and obstructs luminal organs as well as numerous other abnormalities that include inflammation of affected organs, alterations in lipid metabolism and insulin resistance. Here we show that colonic epithelial cells and whole lung tissue from Cftr-deficient mice show a defect in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma, encoded by Pparg) function that contributes to a pathological program of gene expression. Lipidomic analysis of colonic epithelial cells suggests that this defect results in part from reduced amounts of the endogenous PPAR-gamma ligand 15-keto-prostaglandin E(2) (15-keto-PGE(2)). Treatment of Cftr-deficient mice with the synthetic PPAR-gamma ligand rosiglitazone partially normalizes the altered gene expression pattern associated with Cftr deficiency and reduces disease severity. Rosiglitazone has no effect on chloride secretion in the colon, but it increases expression of the genes encoding carbonic anhydrases 4 and 2 (Car4 and Car2), increases bicarbonate secretion and reduces mucus retention. These studies reveal a reversible defect in PPAR-gamma signaling in Cftr-deficient cells that can be pharmacologically corrected to ameliorate the severity of the cystic fibrosis phenotype in mice.

Abstract [show]
RATIONALE: Although in patients with diffuse bronchiectasis (DB) and a normal sweat test the presence of one mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene is frequently observed, its pathogenic role in the development of DB remains unclear. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the association between CFTR heterozygosity and CFTR protein dysfunction in the airways of patients with DB. METHODS: Nasal potential difference was measured in 122 patients with DB of unknown origin and with a normal sweat test (Cl(-) < 60 mmol/L). They were classified according to the presence of CFTR mutations: zero (85 patients), one (22 patients), or two mutations (15 patients). Control groups comprised 26 healthy subjects, 38 obligate heterozygotes for CFTR, and 92 patients with classic cystic fibrosis (CF) with an abnormal sweat test (Cl(-) > or = 60 mmol/L). Patients classified as mild-CF were carrying at least one mild mutation and patients classified as severe-CF were homozygous for the F508del mutation. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: There was a continuum of airway CFTR dysfunction in the study population as shown by nasal potential difference measurements, ranging from normal values in healthy subjects, to intermediate values in subjects with DB, to highly abnormal values in subjects classified as severe-CF. This continuum of airway CFTR dysfunction was thus strongly associated with defects in the CFTR gene. Moreover, among patients with DB, a similar continuum in intermediate nasal potential difference was identified that was associated with the bearing of zero, one, or two CFTR mutations. These electrophysiological phenotypes and CFTR genotypes were also associated with the clinical phenotype, as shown by the frequency of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa bronchial colonization. CONCLUSIONS: Our study supports the hypothesis that a unique CFTR mutation may have pathogenic consequences in patients with DB.

Abstract [show]
This paper reports a novel Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene variant, 1811+1G-->T, detected in a 5-year-old girl diagnosed with idiopathic disseminated bronchiectasis and negative sweat chloride test (17 mmol/L). The performed CFTR gene mutation analysis included detection of the F508del mutation, analysis of Tn polymorphism and screening of CFTR exons 3, 10 and 11. The CFTR gene screening has shown the altered band pattern in exon 11. The DNA sequencing of CFTR exon 11 revealed the presence of the novel sequence variation 1811+1G-->T in heterozygous state. This sequence variation was not found in any of 100 control alleles, analyzed by polymerase chain reaction - restriction fragment length polymorphism method. The novel sequence variation 1811+1G-->T is located at the splicing site at the boundary of exon 11 and intron 11 and might be either a sequence variation or a splicing site defect.

Abstract [show]
The present study compares the clinical presentation and diagnostic features of meconium ileus (MI) in newborns with and without cystic fibrosis (CF). A retrospective study of 43 patients treated in the Pediatric Surgical Center of Amsterdam was performed. Twenty-three of the patients (53.5%) were diagnosed as having CF. Complex MI was significantly more frequent in patients without CF, and these patients had lower gestational ages and birth weights than patients with CF. All of the patients with complex MI had homozygous DF508 mutations, whereas the patients with simple MI also had other mutations. None of the patients with other mutations had complex MI. Therefore, we conclude that the clinical entity of MI represents a spectrum of underlying pathologies.

Impact of gene patents and licensing practices on access to genetic testing for cystic fibrosis.
Genet Med. 2010 Apr;12(4 Suppl):S194-211., [PMID:20393308]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis is one of the most commonly tested autosomal recessive disorders in the United States. Clinical cystic fibrosis is associated with mutations in the CFTR gene, of which the most common mutation among Caucasians, DeltaF508, was identified in 1989. The University of Michigan, Johns Hopkins University, and the Hospital for Sick Children, where much of the initial research occurred, hold key patents on cystic fibrosis genetic sequences, mutations, and methods for detecting them. Several patents, including the one that covers detection of the DeltaF508 mutation, are jointly held by the University of Michigan and the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, with Michigan administering patent licensing in the United States. The University of Michigan broadly licenses the DeltaF508 patent for genetic testing with >60 providers of genetic testing to date. Genetic testing is now used in newborn screening, diagnosis, and for carrier screening. Interviews with key researchers and intellectual property managers, a survey of laboratories' prices for cystic fibrosis genetic testing, a review of literature on cystic fibrosis tests' cost-effectiveness, and a review of the developing market for cystic fibrosis testing provide no evidence that patents have significantly hindered access to genetic tests for cystic fibrosis or prevented financially cost-effective screening. Current licensing practices for cystic fibrosis genetic testing seem to facilitate both academic research and commercial testing. More than 1000 different CFTR mutations have been identified, and research continues to determine their clinical significance. Patents have been nonexclusively licensed for diagnostic use and have been variably licensed for gene transfer and other therapeutic applications. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has been engaged in licensing decisions, making cystic fibrosis a model of collaborative and cooperative patenting and licensing practice.

The NF-kappaB signaling in cystic fibrosis lung disease: pathophysiology and therapeutic potential.
Discov Med. 2010 Apr;9(47):346-56., [PMID:20423679]
Abstract [show]
Lung disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality of cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in CF transmembrane-conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. In CF, elevated levels of interleukin-8 (IL-8) signaling mediated by the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kappaB) result in chronic infection, neutrophilic inflammation, and progressive airway destruction. The most frequent mutation in the CFTR gene is the deletion of phenylalanine 508 (DeltaF508), which results in its endoplasmic reticulum associated degradation (ERAD) by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. The inability of DeltaF508-CFTR to reach cell surface leads to inherently high levels of NF-kappaB. Severity of CF lung disease depends on the levels of functional CFTR on cell surface that control its chloride transport and NF-kappaB mediated innate immune response functions. NF-kappaB mediated chronic inflammation is a prominent feature of CF lung disease and the mechanism(s) by which CFTR regulates these inflammatory signaling pathways is becoming apparent. Recent data suggest that CFTR localization to lipid-rafts is critical for regulating NF-kappaB mediated innate immune response and chronic CF lung disease. We anticipate that targeting the pathways, which facilitates CFTR's rescue to the cell surface and lipid-rafts, will not only restore CFTR channel function but also control NF-kappaB mediated chronic inflammation, although the level of correction may be a critical factor for therapeutic efficacy. We discuss here the mechanisms of NF-kappaB induction in CF, pathogenesis of CF lung disease, and novel therapeutic strategies that may help in reversing the chronic CF lung disease.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis is the first genetic disorder for which universal screening of preconceptional or prenatal patients became a component of standard prenatal care. The molecular genetics and mutation profile of the CFTR gene are complex, with a wide range of phenotypic consequences. Carrier screening can facilitate risk assessment for prospective parents to have an affected offspring, although there remains a small residual risk for carrying a mutation even with a negative screening result. There are ethnic differences with respect to disease incidence and effectiveness of carrier testing, which may complicate counseling.

Abstract [show]
Grade III fetal bowel hyperechogenicity and/or loop dilatation observed at the second trimester of pregnancy can be due to several disease conditions, including cystic fibrosis (CF). Screening for frequent CF mutations is performed as a first step and, in certain situations, such as when a frequent CF mutation is found in the fetus, the increased risk of CF justifies an in-depth study of the second allele. To determine the contribution of large CFTR gene rearrangements in such cases, detected using a semiquantitative fluorescent multiplex PCR (QFM-PCR) assay, we collated data on 669 referrals related to suspicion of CF in fetuses from 1998 to 2009. Deletions were found in 5/70 cases in which QFM-PCR was applied, dele19, dele22_23, dele2_6b, dele14b_15 and dele6a_6b, of which the last three remain undescribed. In 3/5 cases, hyperechogenicity was associated with dilatation and/or gallbladder anomalies. Of the total cases of CF recognized in the subgroup of first-hand referrals, deletions represent 16.7% of CF alleles. Our study thus strengthens the need to consider large CFTR gene rearrangements in the diagnosis strategy of fetal bowel anomalies, in particular in the presence of multiple anomalies.

Abstract [show]
Newborn screening (NBS) for cystic fibrosis (CF) offers the opportunity for early diagnosis and improved outcomes in patients with CF and has been universally available in the state of Massachusetts since 1999 using an immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT)-DNA algorithm. Ideally, CF NBS is incorporated as part of an integrated NBS system that allows for comprehensive and coordinated education, laboratory screening, clinical follow-up, and evaluation so that evidence-based data can be used to maximize quality improvements and optimize the screening algorithm. The New England Newborn Screening Program (NENSP) retrospectively analyzed Massachusetts's CF newborn screening data that yielded decisions to eliminate a screen-positive category, maintain the IRT cutoff value that prompts the second tier DNA testing, and communicate CF relative risk to primary care providers (PCPs) based on categorization of positive CF NBS results.

Abstract [show]
Although little is known about the role of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene in reproductive physiology, numerous variants in this gene have been implicated in etiology of male infertility due to congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD). Here, we studied the fertility effects of three CBAVD-associated CFTR polymorphisms, the (TG)m and polyT repeat polymorphisms in intron 8 and Met470Val in exon 10, in healthy men of European descent. Homozygosity for the Met470 allele was associated with lower birth rates, defined as the number of births per year of marriage (P = 0.0029). The Met470Val locus explained 4.36% of the phenotypic variance in birth rate, and men homozygous for the Met470 allele had 0.56 fewer children on average compared to Val470 carrier men. The derived Val470 allele occurs at high frequencies in non-African populations (allele frequency = 0.51 in HapMap CEU), whereas it is very rare in African population (Fst = 0.43 between HapMap CEU and YRI). In addition, haplotypes bearing Val470 show a lack of genetic diversity and are thus longer than haplotypes bearing Met470 (measured by an integrated haplotype score [iHS] of -1.93 in HapMap CEU). The fraction of SNPs in the HapMap Phase2 data set with more extreme Fst and iHS measures is 0.003, consistent with a selective sweep outside of Africa. The fertility advantage conferred by Val470 relative to Met470 may provide a selective mechanism for these population genetic observations.

135 The most common CF causing mutations in Europeans (i.e. DF508, G542X, N1303K, W1282X) and the most common mutation in the Hutterites, M1101K [16], all reside on haplotypes carrying the ancestral, Met470 allele in exon 10 [29], the 9T allele at the polyT locus, and (by inference) the TG10 or TG11 alleles at the (TG)m locus in intron 8 [5].

Abstract [show]
RATIONALE: The diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) is based on a characteristic clinical picture in association with a sweat chloride (Cl(-)) concentration greater than 60 mmol/L or the identification of two CF-causing mutations. A challenging problem is the significant number of children for whom no definitive diagnosis is possible because they present with symptoms suggestive of CF, a sweat chloride level in the intermediate range between 30 and 60 mmol/L, and only one or no identified CF-causing mutation. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the function of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein in the airways of children with intermediate sweat tests and inconclusive genetic findings in correlation with clinical phenotype and genotype. METHODS: We developed a composite nasal potential difference (NPD) diagnostic score to discriminate patients with CF from non-CF patients. We tested NPD in 50 children (age, 6 mo to 18 yr) with equivocal diagnoses and correlated the NPD diagnostic score with clinical phenotypes and genotypes. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Fifteen of the 50 children had NPD scores in the CF range. Eight of the 15 carried two CFTR mutations compared with only 5 of the 35 children with normal NPD scores (P = 0.01). They were significantly younger at evaluation and had recurrent lower respiratory tract infections, chronic productive coughs, and chronic Staphylococcus aureus colonization significantly more often than the 35 children with normal NPD results. CONCLUSIONS: Evaluation of CFTR function in the nasal epithelium of children with inconclusive CF diagnoses can be a useful diagnostic tool and help clinicians to individualize therapeutic strategy.

Abstract [show]
RATIONALE: Nonsense (premature stop codon) mutations in mRNA for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) cause cystic fibrosis (CF) in approximately 10% of patients. Ataluren (PTC124) is an oral drug that permits ribosomes to readthrough premature stop codons in mRNA to produce functional protein. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate ataluren activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics in children with nonsense mutation CF. METHODS: Patients were assessed in two 28-day cycles, comprising 14 days on and 14 days off ataluren. Patients took ataluren three times per day (morning, midday, and evening) with randomization to the order of receiving a lower dose (4, 4, and 8 mg/kg) and a higher dose (10, 10, and 20 mg/kg) in the two cycles. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The study enrolled 30 patients (16 male and 14 female, ages 6 through 18 yr) with a nonsense mutation in at least one allele of the CFTR gene, a classical CF phenotype, and abnormal baseline nasal epithelial chloride transport. Ataluren induced a nasal chloride transport response (at least a -5-mV improvement) or hyperpolarization (value more electrically negative than -5 mV) in 50% and 47% of patients, respectively, with more hyperpolarizations at the higher dose. Improvements were seen in seven of nine nonsense mutation genotypes represented. Ataluren significantly increased the proportion of nasal epithelial cells expressing apical full-length CFTR protein. Adverse events and laboratory abnormalities were infrequent and usually mild. Ataluren pharmacokinetics were similar to those in adults. CONCLUSIONS: In children with nonsense mutation CF, ataluren can induce functional CFTR production and is well tolerated.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a monogenic, autosomal recessive disorder, which ultimately leads to multisystem organ dysfunction and a subsequent decrease in life expectancy. Because of the sizeable number of disease causing mutations (>1000) and expansive ethnic and racial distribution, CF has presented a challenge for prenatal diagnosis. This article aims to review the genetics of CF, its spectrum of genotypic-phenotypic variations, current prenatal carrier screening and diagnostic recommendations, ultrasonographic markers of CF, and available reproductive options for carrier couples.

12 The DF508 mutation causes a protein misfold that inhibits migration of the CFTR protein from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cell membrane.1,7 Other common mutations include G542X, R553X, W1282X, N1303K, 62111 G-to-T, 1717-1 G-to-A, and R117H.8 These result in a spectrum of protein dysfunction ranging from the production of unstable RNA to CFTR cell surface instability.7 PHENOTYPIC VARIATION IN CFTR MUTATIONS Although 70% of CF patients are either homozygotes or compound heterozygotes for these 8 common mutations, there is tremendous variation in their phenotype.

Expression of wild-type CFTR suppresses NF-kappaB-driven inflammatory signalling.
PLoS One. 2010 Jul 14;5(7):e11598., [PMID:20644644]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Mutation of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane-conductance regulator (CFTR) causes cystic fibrosis (CF) but not all CF aspects can easily be explained by deficient ion transport. CF-inflammation provides one example but its pathogenesis remains controversial. Here, we tested the simple but fundamental hypothesis that wild-type CFTR is needed to suppress NF-kappaB activity. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: In lung epithelial (H441) and engineered (H57) cell lines; we report that inflammatory markers are significantly suppressed by wild-type CFTR. Transient-transfection of wild-type CFTR into CFTR-naive H441 cells, dose-dependently down-regulates both basal and Tumour Necrosis Factor-alpha evoked NF-kappaB activity when compared to transfection with empty vector alone (p<0.01, n>5). This effect was also observed in CFTR-naive H57-HeLa cells which stably express a reporter of NF-kappaB activity, confirming that the CFTR-mediated repression of inflammation was not due to variable reporter gene transfection efficiency. In contrast, H57 cells transfected with a control cyano-fluorescent protein show a significantly elevated basal level of NF-kappaB activity above control. Initial cell seeding density may be a critical factor in mediating the suppressive effects of CFTR on inflammation as only at a certain density (1x10(5) cells/well) did we observe the reduction in NF-kappaB activity. CFTR channel activity may be necessary for this suppression because the CFTR specific inhibitor CFTR(inh172) significantly stimulates NF-kappaB activity by approximately 30% in CFTR expressing 16HBE14o- cells whereas pharmacological elevation of cyclic-AMP depresses activity by approximately 25% below baseline. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: These data indicate that CFTR has inherent anti-inflammatory properties. We propose that the hyper-inflammation found in CF may arise as a consequence of disrupted repression of NF-kappaB signalling which is normally mediated by CFTR. Our data therefore concur with in vivo and in vitro data from Vij and colleagues which highlights CFTR as a suppressor of basal inflammation acting through NF-kappaB, a central hub in inflammatory signalling.

138 Our data predict that the higher inflammation in CF cells could be a consequence of fewer wt-CFTR molecules at the membrane, as would be predicted to occur with stop mutants such as G542X that occur in a minority of CF patients and the clinical data supports the view that the presence of CFTR mutants such as G551D-CFTR that traffic normally but fail to transport chloride at all, nevertheless reduce lung damage to a degree [36].

Asian J Androl. 2010 Nov;12(6):819-26. Epub 2010 Jul 26., [PMID:20657600]
Abstract [show]
Congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens (CBAVD) is a manifestation of the mildest form of cystic fibrosis (CF) and is characterized by obstructive azoospermia in otherwise healthy patients. Owing to the availability of assisted reproductive technology, CBAVD patients can father children. These fathers are at risk of transmitting a mutated allele of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, responsible for CF, to their offspring. The identification of mutations in both CFTR alleles in CBAVD patients is a crucial requirement for calculating the risk of producing a child with full-blown CF if the female partner is a healthy CF carrier. However, in the majority of CBAVD patients, conventional mutation screening is not able to detect mutations in both CFTR alleles, and this difficulty hampers the execution of correct genetic counselling. To obtain information about the most represented CFTR mutations in CBAVD patients, we analysed 23 CBAVD patients, 15 of whom had a single CFTR mutation after screening for 36 mutations and the 5T allele. The search for the second CFTR mutation in these cases was performed by using a triplex approach: (i) first, a reverse dot-blot analysis was performed to detect mutations with regional impact; (ii) next, multiple ligation-dependent probe amplification assays were conducted to search for large rearrangements; and (iii) finally, denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography was used to search for point mutations in the entire coding region. Using these approaches, the second CFTR mutation was detected in six patients, which increased the final detection rate to 60.8%.

Defective CFTR induces aggresome formation and lung inflammation in cystic fibrosis through ROS-mediated autophagy inhibition.
Nat Cell Biol. 2010 Sep;12(9):863-75. Epub 2010 Aug 15., [PMID:20711182]
Abstract [show]
Accumulation of unwanted/misfolded proteins in aggregates has been observed in airways of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), a life-threatening genetic disorder caused by mutations in the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Here we show how the defective CFTR results in defective autophagy and decreases the clearance of aggresomes. Defective CFTR-induced upregulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and tissue transglutaminase (TG2) drive the crosslinking of beclin 1, leading to sequestration of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI(3)K) complex III and accumulation of p62, which regulates aggresome formation. Both CFTR knockdown and the overexpression of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged-CFTR(F508del) induce beclin 1 downregulation and defective autophagy in non-CF airway epithelia through the ROS-TG2 pathway. Restoration of beclin 1 and autophagy by either beclin 1 overexpression, cystamine or antioxidants rescues the localization of the beclin 1 interactome to the endoplasmic reticulum and reverts the CF airway phenotype in vitro, in vivo in Scnn1b-transgenic and Cftr(F508del) homozygous mice, and in human CF nasal biopsies. Restoring beclin 1 or knocking down p62 rescued the trafficking of CFTR(F508del) to the cell surface. These data link the CFTR defect to autophagy deficiency, leading to the accumulation of protein aggregates and to lung inflammation.

Initial evaluation of a biochemical cystic fibrosis newborn screening by sequential analysis of immunoreactive trypsinogen and pancreatitis-associated protein (IRT/PAP) as a strategy that does not involve DNA testing in a Northern European population.
J Inherit Metab Dis. 2010 Oct;33(Suppl 2):S263-71. Epub 2010 Aug 17., [PMID:20714932]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Ethical concerns and disadvantages of newborn screening (NBS) for cystic fibrosis (CF) related to genetic testing have raised controversies and impeded implementation of CF NBS in some countries. In the present study, we used a prospective and sequential immunoreactive trypsinogene (IRT)/pancreatitis-associated protein (PAP) strategy, with IRT as first and PAP as second tier, and validated this biochemical approach against the widely used IRT/DNA protocol in a population-based NBS study in southwest Germany. METHODS: Prospective quantitation of PAP and genetic analysis for the presence of four mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene most prevalent in southwest Germany (F508del, R553X, G551D, G542X) were performed in all newborns with IRT > 99.0th percentile. NBS was rated positive when either PAP was >/=1.0 ng/mL and/or at least one CFTR mutation was detected. In addition, IRT > 99.9th percentile was also considered a positive rating. Positive rating led to referral to a CF centre for testing of sweat Cl(-) concentration. FINDINGS: Out of 73,759 newborns tested, 98 (0.13%) were positive with IRT/PAP and 56 (0.08%) with IRT/DNA. After sweat testing of 135 CF NBS-positive infants, 13 were diagnosed with CF. Detection rates were similar for both IRT/PAP and IRT/DNA. One of the 13 diagnosed CF newborns had a PAP concentration <1.0 ng/mL. CONCLUSIONS: Sequential measurement of IRT/PAP provides good sensitivity and specificity and allows reliable and cost-effective CF NBS which circumvents the necessity of genetic testing with its inherent ethical problems.

Mutational spectrum of cystic fibrosis in the Lebanese population.
J Cyst Fibros. 2010 Dec;9(6):406-10. Epub 2010 Aug 25., [PMID:20797923]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common autosomal recessive disease in Caucasians; it is however, considered to be rare in the Arab populations. Reports of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) mutations from Arabs, especially from the Lebanese population, are limited. METHODS: Twenty-two unrelated Lebanese families, with at least one child with CF, were studied. DNA extracts from blood samples of patients and parents were screened for CFTR gene mutations. RESULTS: Eleven different mutations were identified. Of the 44 alleles studied, the most common mutations were: F508del (34%), N1303K (27%), W1282X (7%), and S4X (7%). Five mutations - not previously reported in the Lebanese population - were identified; these are: S549N, G542X, 2043delG, 4016insG, and R117H-7T. CONCLUSIONS: The most common CFTR mutations in addition to five mutations not previously described in the Lebanese population were identified. Identification of CFTR mutations in the Lebanese population is important for molecular investigations and genetic counseling.

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein repair as a therapeutic strategy in cystic fibrosis.
Curr Opin Pulm Med. 2010 Nov;16(6):591-7., [PMID:20829696]
Abstract [show]
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Recent progress in understanding the production, processing, and function of the cystic fibrosis gene product, the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), has revealed new therapeutic targets to repair the mutant protein. Classification of CFTR mutations and new treatment strategies to address each will be described here. RECENT FINDINGS: High-throughput screening and other drug discovery efforts have identified small molecules that restore activity to mutant CFTR. Compounds such as VX-770 that potentiate CFTR have demonstrated exciting results in recent clinical trials and demonstrate robust effects across several CFTR mutation classes in the laboratory. A number of novel F508del CFTR processing correctors restore protein to the cell surface and improve ion channel function in vitro and are augmented by coadministration of CFTR potentiators. Ongoing discovery efforts that target protein folding, CFTR trafficking, and cell stress have also indicated promising results. Aminoglycosides and the novel small molecule ataluren induce translational readthrough of nonsense mutations in CFTR and other genetic diseases in vitro and in vivo and have shown activity in proof of concept trials, and ataluren is now being studied in confirmatory trials. SUMMARY: An improved understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the basic genetic defect in cystic fibrosis have led to new treatment strategies to repair the mutant protein.

Abstract [show]
Significant survival heterogeneity exists in cystic fibrosis. Our aim was to determine whether residual function of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is present in long-term survivors with severe mutations. Nasal potential difference (PD) and sweat chloride were measured in 34 long-term survivors (aged >/= 40 yrs) and compared with young patients (18-23 yrs) with severe (n = 30) and mild (n = 31) lung disease. Baseline PD was not significantly different across the three groups (long-term survivors, -42.8 (range -71.0- -20.5) mV; young/mild, -40.5 (-58.8- -19.5) mV; young/severe,-46.3 (-74.0- -20.0) mV). Response to amiloride (DeltaAmil) was significantly different across the three groups (p = 0.01); long-term survivors had values (27.8 (range 8.5-46) mV) which were not different to either young group, but the young/severe group had significantly higher values (29.5 (11-47) mV) than those in the young/mild group (22.0 (7-39) mV; p<0.01). Baseline PD and DeltaAmil were associated with forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV) (co-efficient (95% CI) -0.13 (-0.23- -0.03); p = 0.009 and -0.12 (-0.20- -0.04); p = 0.003, respectively). Sweat chloride was lowest (p <0.05) in the young/severe group (93.5 (74-111) mmol.L(1) versus 98.8 (76.5-116.0) mmol.L(1); long-term survivors; and 99.5 (80.0-113.5) mmol.L(1); young/mild). Delta Amil is associated with FEV but our findings indicate that long-term survival cannot be explained by residual CFTR function when measurements are taken in later life.

Type of CFTR mutation determines risk of pancreatitis in patients with cystic fibrosis.
Gastroenterology. 2011 Jan;140(1):153-61. Epub 2010 Nov 9., [PMID:20923678]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Different mutations in the cystic fibrosis gene (CFTR) are associated with different functional status of the exocrine pancreas. We investigated whether CFTR genotypes determine the risk of pancreatitis in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). METHODS: Patients with pancreatic-sufficient CF were identified from 2 CF population-based databases (N = 277; 62 with pancreatitis and 215 without pancreatitis); patients' genotypes and clinical characteristics were analyzed. The loss of pancreatic function associated with each CFTR genotype was determined based on the pancreatic insufficiency prevalence (PIP) score. RESULTS: Patients with pancreatitis were more likely to have genotypes associated with mild (70%) than moderate-severe (30%) PIP scores (P = .004). The cumulative proportion of patients who developed pancreatitis through to the age of 50 years was significantly greater for genotypes associated with mild (50%) than moderate-severe (27%) PIP scores (P = .006). The genotype associated with mild PIP scores had a hazard ratio of 2.4 for pancreatitis (95% confidence interval, 1.3-4.5; P = .006). Patients with pancreatitis were diagnosed with CF at an older median age than those without pancreatitis (14.9 years [interquartile range, 9.5-27.7] vs 9.3 years [interquartile range, 1.5-21.4]; P = .003) and had lower mean levels of sweat chloride than patients without pancreatitis (74.5 +/- 26.2 mmol/L vs 82.8 +/- 25.2 mmol/L; P = .03). CONCLUSIONS: Specific CFTR genotypes are significantly associated with pancreatitis. Patients with genotypes associated with mild phenotypic effects have a greater risk of developing pancreatitis than patients with genotypes associated with moderate-severe phenotypes. This observation provides further insight into the complex pathogenesis of pancreatitis.

Mutations that permit residual CFTR function delay acquisition of multiple respiratory pathogens in CF patients.
Respir Res. 2010 Oct 8;11:140., [PMID:20932301]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Lung infection by various organisms is a characteristic feature of cystic fibrosis (CF). CFTR genotype effects acquisition of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa), however the effect on acquisition of other infectious organisms that frequently precede Pa is relatively unknown. Understanding the role of CFTR in the acquisition of organisms first detected in patients may help guide symptomatic and molecular-based treatment for CF. METHODS: Lung infection, defined as a single positive respiratory tract culture, was assessed for 13 organisms in 1,381 individuals with CF. Subjects were divided by predicted CFTR function: 'Residual': carrying at least one partial function CFTR mutation (class IV or V) and 'Minimal' those who do not carry a partial function mutation. Kaplan-Meier estimates were created to assess CFTR effect on age of acquisition for each organism. Cox proportional hazard models were performed to control for possible cofactors. A separate Cox regression was used to determine whether defining infection with Pa, mucoid Pa or Aspergillus (Asp) using alternative criteria affected the results. The influence of severity of lung disease at the time of acquisition was evaluated using stratified Cox regression methods by lung disease categories. RESULTS: Subjects with 'Minimal' CFTR function had a higher hazard than patients with 'Residual' function for acquisition of 9 of 13 organisms studied (HR ranging from 1.7 to 3.78 based on the organism studied). Subjects with minimal CFTR function acquired infection at a younger age than those with residual function for 12 of 13 organisms (p-values ranging: < 0.001 to 0.017). Minimal CFTR function also associated with younger age of infection when 3 alternative definitions of infection with Pa, mucoid Pa or Asp were employed. Risk of infection is correlated with CFTR function for 8 of 9 organisms in patients with good lung function (>90%ile) but only 1 of 9 organisms in those with poorer lung function (<50%ile). CONCLUSIONS: Residual CFTR function correlates with later onset of respiratory tract infection by a wide spectrum of organisms frequently cultured from CF patients. The protective effect conferred by residual CFTR function is diminished in CF patients with more advanced lung disease.

Effect of VX-770 in persons with cystic fibrosis and the G551D-CFTR mutation.
N Engl J Med. 2010 Nov 18;363(21):1991-2003., 2010-11-18 [PMID:21083385]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: A new approach in the treatment of cystic fibrosis involves improving the function of mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). VX-770, a CFTR potentiator, has been shown to increase the activity of wild-type and defective cell-surface CFTR in vitro. METHODS: We randomly assigned 39 adults with cystic fibrosis and at least one G551D-CFTR allele to receive oral VX-770 every 12 hours at a dose of 25, 75, or 150 mg or placebo for 14 days (in part 1 of the study) or VX-770 every 12 hours at a dose of 150 or 250 mg or placebo for 28 days (in part 2 of the study). RESULTS: At day 28, in the group of subjects who received 150 mg of VX-770, the median change in the nasal potential difference (in response to the administration of a chloride-free isoproterenol solution) from baseline was -3.5 mV (range, -8.3 to 0.5; P=0.02 for the within-subject comparison, P=0.13 vs. placebo), and the median change in the level of sweat chloride was -59.5 mmol per liter (range, -66.0 to -19.0; P=0.008 within-subject, P=0.02 vs. placebo). The median change from baseline in the percent of predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second was 8.7% (range, 2.3 to 31.3; P=0.008 for the within-subject comparison, P=0.56 vs. placebo). None of the subjects withdrew from the study. Six severe adverse events occurred in two subjects (diffuse macular rash in one subject and five incidents of elevated blood and urine glucose levels in one subject with diabetes). All severe adverse events resolved without the discontinuation of VX-770. CONCLUSIONS: This study to evaluate the safety and adverse-event profile of VX-770 showed that VX-770 was associated with within-subject improvements in CFTR and lung function. These findings provide support for further studies of pharmacologic potentiation of CFTR as a means to treat cystic fibrosis.

Hum Genet. 2011 Apr;129(4):387-96. Epub 2010 Dec 24., [PMID:21184098]
Abstract [show]
Fetal bowel anomalies may reveal cystic fibrosis (CF) and the search for CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutations is part of the diagnostic investigations in such pregnancies, according to European recommendations. We report on our 18-year experience to document comprehensive CFTR genotypes and correlations with ultrasound patterns in a series of 694 cases of fetal bowel anomalies. CFTR gene analysis was performed in a multistep process, including search for frequent mutations in the parents and subsequent in-depth search for rare mutations, depending on the context. Ultrasound patterns were correlated with the genotypes. Cases were distinguished according to whether they had been referred directly to our laboratory or after an initial testing in another laboratory. A total of 30 CF fetuses and 8 cases compatible with CFTR-related disorders were identified. CFTR rearrangements were found in 5/30 CF fetuses. 21.2% of fetuses carrying a frequent mutation had a second rare mutation, indicative of CF. The frequency of CF among fetuses with no frequent mutation was 0.43%. Correlation with ultrasound patterns revealed a significant frequency of multiple bowel anomalies in CF fetuses. The results emphasize the need to search for rearrangements in the diagnosis strategy of fetal bowel anomalies. The diagnostic value of ultrasound patterns combining hyperechogenic bowel, loop dilatation and/or non-visualized gallbladder reveals a need to revise current strategies and to offer extensive CFTR gene testing when the triad is diagnosed, even when no frequent mutation is found in the first-step analysis.

Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol. 2011 Mar;300(3):R605-15. Epub 2011 Jan 12., [PMID:21228336]
Abstract [show]
To understand potential mechanisms explaining interindividual variability observed in human sweat sodium concentration ([Na(+)]), we investigated the relationship among [Na(+)] of thermoregulatory sweat, plasma membrane expression of Na(+) and Cl(-) transport proteins in biopsied human eccrine sweat ducts, and basal levels of vasopressin (AVP) and aldosterone. Lower ductal luminal membrane expression of the Cl(-) channel cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) was observed in immunofluorescent staining of sweat glands from healthy young adults identified as exceptionally "salty sweaters" (SS) (n = 6, P < 0.05) and from patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) (n = 6, P < 0.005) compared with ducts from healthy young adults with "typical" sweat [Na(+)] (control, n = 6). Genetic testing of healthy subjects did not reveal any heterozygotes ("carriers") for any of the 39 most common disease-causing CFTR mutations in the United States. SS had higher baseline plasma [AVP] compared with control (P = 0.029). Immunostaining to investigate a potential relationship between higher plasma [AVP] (and sweat [Na(+)]) and ductal membrane aquaporin-5 revealed for all groups a relatively sparse and location-dependent ductal expression of the water channel with localization primarily to the secretory coil. Availability of CFTR for NaCl transport across the ductal membrane appears related to the significant physiological variability observed in sweat salt concentration in apparently healthy humans. At present, a heritable link between healthy salty sweaters and the most prevalent disease-causing CFTR mutations cannot be established.

Abstract [show]
In a subset of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), nonsense mutations (premature stop codons) disrupt production of full-length, functional CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Ataluren (PTC124) allows ribosomal readthrough of premature stop codons in mRNA. We evaluated drug activity and safety in patients with nonsense mutation CF who took ataluren three times daily (morning, midday and evening) for 12 weeks at either a lower dose (4, 4 and 8 mg.kg(-1)) or higher dose (10, 10 and 20 mg.kg(-1)). The study enrolled 19 patients (10 males and nine females aged 19-57 yrs; dose: lower 12, higher seven) with a classic CF phenotype, at least one CFTR nonsense mutation allele, and an abnormal nasal total chloride transport. Both ataluren doses were similarly active, improving total chloride transport with a combined mean change of -5.4 mV (p<0.001), and on-treatment responses (at least -5 mV improvement) and hyperpolarisations (values more electrically negative than -5 mV) in 61% (p<0.001) and 56% (p = 0.002) of patients. CFTR function was greater with time and was accompanied by trends toward improvements in pulmonary function and CF-related coughing. Adverse clinical and laboratory findings were uncommon and usually mild. Chronic ataluren administration produced time-dependent improvements in CFTR activity and clinical parameters with generally good tolerability.

Abstract [show]
This is the third article related to a review of the literature based on data from national cystic fibrosis (CF) patient registries up to June 2008 and covering a total of 115 published studies. It focuses on several topics: CF incidence, genotype/phenotype correlation, microbiology, pregnancy/paternity, clinical complications, lung transplantation, and others. Seventy seven papers meeting the inclusion criteria were found to be related to the topics listed above. Another seven studies, already evaluated in previous papers of this series, were recalled for specific topics. Incidence is described by several studies, results being quite different from one country to another and quite inhomogeneous among regions within the same country. Studies on genetics address the genotype/phenotype correlation and look for a predictive value of CFTR mutations in terms of clinical outcome, with controversial results. Papers on microbiology describe the clinical relevance of different pathogens and their role in the progress of CF lung disease. A few articles give information on the features of CF women undergoing a pregnancy and try to identify the ones associated with a better outcome. Studies on clinical complications discuss prevalence and the role of haemoptysis, pneumothorax, CF related diabetes, ABPA and cancer. Papers on lung transplantation focus on models able to improve the selection criteria for transplantation candidates and the factors linked to post transplantation survival. Finally, several studies deal with a number of interesting topics related to CF epidemiology: clinical trial methodology, quality of care comparison among countries and centers, relationship between diagnosis and age/gender, and evaluation of pharmacological therapy. On the whole, CF Registries have already contributed to important advances in the knowledge of the natural history of CF, establishing the foundations for future improvement in CF research and care.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was characterization of an updated distribution of CFTR mutations in a representative cohort of 40 CF patients with the classical form of the disease drawn from Eastern Hungary. Due to the homogeneity of the Hungarian population our data are generally applicable to other regions of the country, including the sizeable diaspora. METHODS: We utilized the recommended "cascade" CFTR mutation screening approach, initially using a commercial assay, followed by examination of the common "Slavic" deletion CFTRdele2,3(21kb). Subsequently, the entire CFTR coding region of the CFTR gene was sequenced in patients with yet unidentified mutations. RESULTS: The Elucigene CF29(Tm) v2 assay detected 81.25% of all CF causing mutations. An addition of the CFTRdele2,3(21kb) increased the mutation detection rate to 86.25%. DNA sequencing enabled us to identify mutations on 79/80 CF alleles. Mutations [CFTRdele2,3(21kb), p.Gln685ThrfsX4 (2184insA) were found at an unusually high frequency, each comprising 5.00% of all CF alleles. CONCLUSION: We have identified common CF causing mutations in the Hungarian population with the most common mutations (p.Phe508del, p.Asn1303Lys, CFTRdele2,3(21kb), 2184insA, p.Gly542X, and p.Leu101X), comprising over 93.75% of all CF alleles. Obtained data are applicable to the improvement of DNA diagnostics in Hungary and beyond, and are the necessary prerequisite for the introduction of a nationwide "two tier" CF newborn screening program.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Despite numerous studies a clear relationship between genotype and pulmonary phenotype has not been established within the group pancreatic insufficient cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. We studied the relationship between class I and class II mutations and pulmonary function in Swedish patients with known CFTR functional classification. METHODS: 170 CF patients with two class II mutations, 18 with two class I mutations and 78 with a combination of class I and II mutations were included in the study. Spirometry was performed when patients were in an optimal clinical condition. RESULTS: Patients with two class I mutations had lower lung function (FEV(1) and FVC) compared to the group with either a combination of class I and II mutations or two class II mutations. CONCLUSION: CF patients carrying two class I mutations risk developing more severe lung disease compared to patients with at least one class II mutation.

J Cyst Fibros. 2011 Jul;10(4):278-81. Epub 2011 Mar 8., [PMID:21388895]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: There has been great variation and uncertainty about how many and what CFTR mutations to include in cystic fibrosis (CF) newborn screening algorithms, and very little research on this topic using large populations of newborns. METHODS: We reviewed Wisconsin screening results for 1994-2008 to identify an ideal panel. RESULTS: Upon analyzing approximately 1 million screening results, we found it optimal to use a 23 CFTR mutation panel as a second tier when an immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT)/DNA algorithm was applied for CF screening. This panel in association with a 96th percentile IRT cutoff gave a sensitivity of 97.3%, but restricting the DNA tier to F508del was associated with 90% (P<.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Although CFTR panel selection has been challenging, our data show that a 23 mutation method optimizes sensitivity and is advantageous. The IRT cutoff value, however, is actually more critical than DNA in determining CF newborn screening sensitivity.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: In Sardinia the mutational spectrum of CFTR gene is well defined. A mutation detection rate of 94% can be achieved by screening for 15 CFTR mutations with a frequency higher than 0.5%. The efficiency of this molecular test suggests that Sardinians may represent a suitable population for a preconceptional screening. METHODS: Five hundred couples of Sardinia descent were screened for 38 mutations using a semi-automated reverse-dot blot and PCR-gel electrophoresis assays. This mutation panel included the 15 most frequent CF alleles in Sardinia. RESULTS: We identified 38 CF carriers, revealing an overall frequency of 1/25 (4%). The most common CF allele was the p.Thr338Ile (T338I) (65%), followed by the p.Phe508del (F508del) (22.5%). We also identified one couple at risk and an asymptomatic female homozygote for the p.Thr338Ile allele. CONCLUSIONS: In spite of the low number of the couples tested, the results herein reported demonstrate the efficacy and efficiency of the preconceptional screening program and the high participation rate of the Sardinian population (99%).

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The incidence of cystic fibrosis (CF) and the frequency of specific disease-causing mutations vary among populations. Affected individuals experience a range of serious clinical consequences, notably lung and pancreatic disease, which are only partially dependent on genotype. METHODS: An allele-specific primer-extension reaction, liquid-phase hybridization to a bead array, and subsequent fluorescence detection were used in testing for carriers of 98 CFTR [cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (ATP-binding cassette sub-family C, member 7)] mutations among 364 890 referred individuals with no family history of CF. RESULTS: One in 38 individuals carried one of the 98 CFTR mutations included in this panel. Of the 87 different mutations detected, 18 were limited to a single ethnic group. African American, Hispanic, and Asian individuals accounted for 33% of the individuals tested. The mutation frequency distribution of Caucasians was significantly different from that of each of these ethnic groups (P < 1 x 10(1)). CONCLUSIONS: Carrier testing using a broad mutation panel detects differences in the distribution of mutations among ethnic groups in the US.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: CDC's Newborn Screening Quality Assurance Program collaborated with several U.S. Cystic Fibrosis Care Centers to collect specimens for development of a molecular CFTR proficiency testing program using dried-blood spots for newborn screening laboratories. METHODS: Adult and adolescent patients or carriers donated whole blood that was aliquoted onto filter paper cards. Five blind-coded specimens were sent to participating newborn screening laboratories quarterly. Proficiency testing results were evaluated based on presumptive clinical assessment. Individual evaluations and summary reports were sent to each participating laboratory and technical consultations were offered if incorrect assessments were reported. RESULTS: The current CDC repository contains specimens with 39 different CFTR mutations. Up to 45 laboratories have participated in the program. Three years of data showed that correct assessments were reported 97.7% of the time overall when both mutations could be determined. Incorrect assessments that could have lead to a missed case occurred 0.9% of the time, and no information was reported 1.1% of the time due to sample failure. CONCLUSIONS: Results show that laboratories using molecular assays to detect CFTR mutations are performing satisfactorily. The programmatic results presented demonstrate the importance and complexity of providing proficiency testing for DNA-based assays.

Abstract [show]
An unavoidable outcome of cystic fibrosis newborn screening (CF NBS) programs is the detection of infants with an indeterminate diagnosis. The United States CF Foundation recently proposed the term cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator related metabolic syndrome (CRMS) to describe infants with elevated immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) on NBS who do not meet diagnostic criteria for CF. The objective of this study was to describe the clinical outcomes of infants with CRMS identified through an IRT/DNA algorithm. We reviewed the records of all infants with CRMS diagnosed at our CF Center from 2002 to 2010. We identified 12 infants, and compared them to 27 infants diagnosed with CF by NBS. Compared to CF patients, CRMS patients were more likely to be pancreatic sufficient as assessed by fecal elastase measurement (100% vs. 8%, P < 0.01). Their weight for age percentile was normal from birth. A positive oropharyngeal (OP) culture for Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) was found in 25% of CRMS patients. One patient with the F508del/R117H/7T genotype was reassigned the diagnosis of CF after he had a positive OP culture for Pa, and his follow up sweat Cl at 1 year of life was 73 mmol/L. CF patients were more likely to receive oral antibiotics and be hospitalized for pulmonary symptoms. Our results indicate that CRMS patients can develop signs of CF disease, but have a milder clinical course than CF infants. Close initial monitoring of these patients is warranted. Pediatr. Pulmonol.

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and cystic fibrosis.
Methods Mol Biol. 2011;741:137-54., [PMID:21594783]
Abstract [show]
Approximately one-third of the alleles causing genetic diseases carry premature termination codons (PTCs). Therapeutic approaches for mutations generating in-frame PTCs are aimed at promoting translational readthrough of the PTC, to enable the synthesis and expression of full-length functional proteins. Interestingly, readthrough studies in tissue culture cells, mouse models, and clinical trials revealed a wide variability in the response to the readthrough treatments. The molecular basis for this variability includes the identity of the PTC and its sequence context, the chemical composition of the readthrough drug, and, as we showed recently, the level of PTC-bearing transcripts. One post-transcriptional mechanism that specifically regulates the level of PTC-bearing transcripts is nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). We have previously shown a role for NMD in regulating the response of CF patients carrying CFTR PTCs to readthrough treatment. Here we describe all the protocols for analyzing CFTR nonsense transcript levels and for investigating the role of NMD in the response to readthrough treatment. This includes inhibition of the NMD mechanism, quantification of CFTR nonsense transcripts and physiologic NMD substrates, and analysis of the CFTR function.

Understanding protein kinase CK2 mis-regulation upon F508del CFTR expression.
Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol. 2011 May 24., 2011-05-24 [PMID:21607646]
Abstract [show]
We review areas of overlap between nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDPK; nm23) and two proteins manifesting an equivalent diversity of action, each with many thousands of publications. The first is a constitutively active protein kinase, CK2 (formerly casein kinase 2), that includes NDPK amongst its hundreds of targets. The second is an enigmatic member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family of membrane pumps that normally hydrolyse ATP to transport substrates. Yet our unusual family member (ABCC7) is not a pump but, uniquely, acts as a regulated anion channel. ABCC7 is the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), and we discuss the highly prevalent CFTR mutation (F508del CFTR) in terms of the uncertainties surrounding the molecular basis of cystic fibrosis that cloud approaches to corrective therapy. Using lysates from cells stably expressing either wild-type or F508del CFTR, incubated with the CK2 substrate GTP, we show that the phosphoproteome of F508del CFTR-expressing cells both differs from wild-type CFTR-expressing cells and is significantly enhanced in intensity by approximately 1.5-fold (p < 0.05, paired t test with Bonferroni correction, n = 4). Phosphorylation is about 50% attenuated with a specific CK2 inhibitor. We propose that a new function may exist for the CFTR region that is commonly mutated, noting that its sequence (PGTIKENIIF(508)GVSYDEYRYR) is not only highly conserved within the C sub-family of ABC proteins but also a related sequence is found in NDPK. We conclude that a latent path may exist between mutation of this conserved sequence, CK2 hyperactivity and disease pathogenesis that might also explain the heterozygote advantage for the common F508del CFTR mutant .

Abstract [show]
Recent advances in basic science have greatly expanded our understanding of the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), the chloride and bicarbonate channel that is encoded by the gene, which is mutated in patients with CF. We review the structure, function, biosynthetic processing, and intracellular trafficking of CFTR and discuss the five classes of mutations and their impact on the CF phenotype. The therapeutic discussion is focused on the significant progress toward CFTR mutation-specific therapies. We review the results of encouraging clinical trials examining orally administered therapeutics, including agents that promote read-through of class I mutations (premature termination codons); correctors, which overcome the CFTR misfolding that characterizes the common class II mutation F508del; and potentiators, which enhance the function of class III or IV mutated CFTR at the plasma membrane. Long-term outcomes from successful mutation-specific treatments could finally answer the question that has been lingering since and even before the CFTR gene discovery: Will therapies that specifically restore CFTR-mediated chloride secretion slow or arrest the deleterious cascade of events leading to chronic infection, bronchiectasis, and end-stage lung disease?

Abstract [show]
Several diseases have been clinically or genetically related to cystic fibrosis (CF), but a consensus definition is lacking. Here, we present a proposal for consensus guidelines on cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-related disorders (CFTR-RDs), reached after expert discussion and two dedicated workshops. A CFTR-RD may be defined as "a clinical entity associated with CFTR dysfunction that does not fulfil diagnostic criteria for CF". The utility of sweat testing, mutation analysis, nasal potential difference, and/or intestinal current measurement for the differential diagnosis of CF and CFTR-RD is discussed. Algorithms which use genetic and functional diagnostic tests to distinguish CF and CFTR-RDs are presented. According to present knowledge, congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens (CBAVD), acute recurrent or chronic pancreatitis and disseminated bronchiectasis, all with CFTR dysfunction, are CFTR-RDs.

Abstract [show]
It is well established that cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) mutations are involved in congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD), causing obstructive azoospermia and male infertility. Also, several studies reported a relatively high prevalence of CFTR gene mutations in healthy men presenting reduced sperm quality. In this study, we investigate DeltaF508 mutation and IVS8-polyT polymorphism in CFTR gene in Tunisian infertile men without CBAVD. Genetic analyses were performed in 148 infertile patients and 126 fertile individuals. The polymorphic IVS8-polyT tract in CFTR gene was analysed in only 129 infertile patients and 54 individuals of control group. As well, we screened for Y chromosome microdeletions in all infertile patients. No DeltaF508 mutation was diagnosed either in infertile patients or in control group. 5T allele of IVS8-polyT tract was found in both infertile men (4.26%) and fertile individuals (8.33%). 5T/5T genotype was observed only in two azoospermic patients without Y microdeletions. The most frequent genotype of IVS8-polyT tract in infertile men and controls was 7T/7T (69.75% and 59.25% respectively). There was no association between IVS8-polyT polymorphism and reduced semen quality. Neither DeltaF508 mutation nor 5T allele is involved in pathogenesis of male infertility in Tunisian infertile patients without CBAVD.

J Mol Med (Berl). 2011 Jul 22., 2011-07-22 [PMID:21779978]
Abstract [show]
Certain aminoglycosides are capable of inducing "translational readthrough" of premature termination codons (PTCs). However, toxicity and relative lack of efficacy deter treatment with clinically available aminoglycosides for genetic diseases caused by PTCs, including cystic fibrosis (CF). Using a structure-based approach, the novel aminoglycoside NB54 was developed that exhibits reduced toxicity and enhanced suppression of PTCs in cell-based reporter assays relative to gentamicin. We examined whether NB54 administration rescued CFTR protein and function in clinically relevant CF models. In a fluorescence-based halide efflux assay, NB54 partially restored halide efflux in a CF bronchial epithelial cell line (CFTR genotype W1282X/F508del), but not in a CF epithelial cell line lacking a PTC (F508del/F508del). In polarized airway epithelial cells expressing either a CFTR-W1282X or -G542X cDNA, treatment with NB54 increased stimulated short-circuit current (I (SC)) with greater efficiency than gentamicin. NB54 and gentamicin induced comparable increases in forskolin-stimulated I (SC) in primary airway epithelial cells derived from a G542X/F508del CF donor. Systemic administration of NB54 to Cftr-/- mice expressing a human CFTR-G542X transgene restored 15-17% of the average stimulated transepithelial chloride currents observed in wild-type (Cftr+/+) mice, comparable to gentamicin. NB54 exhibited reduced cellular toxicity in vitro and was tolerated at higher concentrations than gentamicin in vivo. These results provide evidence that synthetic aminoglycosides are capable of PTC suppression in relevant human CF cells and a CF animal model and support further development of these compounds as a treatment modality for genetic diseases caused by PTCs.

A recurrent deep-intronic splicing CF mutation emphasizes the importance of mRNA studies in clinical practice.
J Cyst Fibros. 2011 Jul 21., 2011-07-21 [PMID:21783433]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The identification by CFTR mRNA studies of a new deep-intronic splicing mutation, c.870-1113_1110delGAAT, in one patient of our series with mild CF symptoms and in three CF patients of an Italian study, led us to evaluate the mutation frequency and phenotype/genotype correlations. METHODS: 266 patients with CF and related disorders and having at least one undetected mutation, were tested at the gDNA level in three French reference laboratories. RESULTS: In total, the mutation was found in 13 unrelated patients (5% of those already carrying a mutation) plus 4 siblings, including one homozygote and 12 heterozygotes having a severe CF mutation. The sweat test was positive in 10/14 documented cases, the diagnosis was delayed after 20years in 9/15 and pancreatic insufficiency was present in 5/16. CONCLUSION: c.870-1113_1110delGAAT should be considered as CF-causing with phenotype variability and overall delayed diagnosis. Its frequency highlights the potential of mRNA studies.

PLoS One. 2011;6(7):e22212. Epub 2011 Jul 21., [PMID:21811577]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Evaluation of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) functional activity to assess new therapies and define diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) is cumbersome. It is known that leukocytes express detectable levels of CFTR but the molecule has not been characterized in these cells. In this study we aim at setting up and validating a blood test to evaluate CFTR expression and function in leukocytes. DESCRIPTION: Western blot, PCR, immunofluorescence and cell membrane depolarization analysis by single-cell fluorescence imaging, using the potential-sensitive DiSBAC(2)(3) probe were utilized. Expression of PKA phosphorylated, cell membrane-localized CFTR was detected in non-CF monocytes, being undetectable or present in truncated form in monocytes derived from CF patients presenting with nonsense mutations. CFTR agonist administration induced membrane depolarization in monocytes isolated from non-CF donors (31 subjects) and, to a lesser extent, obligate CFTR heterozygous carriers (HTZ: 15 subjects), but it failed in monocytes from CF patients (44 subjects). We propose an index, which values in CF patients are significantly (p<0.001) lower than in the other two groups. Nasal Potential Difference, measured in selected subjects had concordant results with monocytes assay (Kappa statistic 0.93, 95%CI: 0.80-1.00). RESULTS AND SIGNIFICANCE: CFTR is detectable and is functional in human monocytes. We also showed that CFTR-associated activity can be evaluated in 5 ml of peripheral blood and devise an index potentially applicable for diagnostic purposes and both basic and translational research: from drug development to evaluation of functional outcomes in clinical trials.

Buccal cell DNA mutation analysis for diagnosis of cystic fibrosis in newborns and infants inaccessible to sweat chloride measurement.
Pediatrics. 1998 May;101(5):851-5., [PMID:9565413]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: To assess the application of DNA-based cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutation analysis as a primary cystic fibrosis (CF) diagnostic test in preterm and term newborns and infants for whom the quantitative pilocarpine iontophoresis test (QPIT) cannot be used. DESIGN: Retrospective survey. SETTING: DNA Diagnostic Laboratory, Children's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts. Buccal cell DNA samples were received from inpatients, outpatients, and three neonatal intensive care units. OUTCOME MEASURE: Detection of at least 1 of 12 CFTR mutations. PATIENTS: Between November 1, 1992, and April 30, 1994, 28 newborns and infants under 12 months of age at risk for CF had CFTR DNA mutation analysis performed because a sweat chloride (SC) value could not be obtained. QPIT was either not performed (infant weight <2 kg, QPIT not available at site of hospitalization, or infant not accessible to QPIT laboratory) or was inconclusive (sweat volume <75 mg or indeterminate SC [>/=40, <60 mEq/L]). The postnatal age at time of testing ranged from 1 day to 11 months, and gestational age at birth from 25 to 40 weeks. RESULTS: Six (21%) of 28 infants with unobtainable or indeterminate QPIT had 1 or 2 CFTR mutations detected. Immediate CF diagnosis by direct detection of 2 CFTR mutations was made in 5 of these 6 patients. Definitive CF diagnosis in the infant with 1 CFTR mutation was delayed until an elevation in SC could be documented. The patients with no CFTR mutations detected had a low likelihood of CF. CONCLUSIONS: For infants in whom CF is suspected but QPIT cannot be obtained, buccal cell DNA-based CFTR mutation analysis can be used as a rapid, noninvasive primary diagnostic test. This simple mode of DNA collection may aid in the diagnosis of other inherited disorders in newborns.

Alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency alleles and the Taq-I G-->A allele in cystic fibrosis lung disease.
Eur Respir J. 1998 Apr;11(4):873-9., [PMID:9623690]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by progressive and ultimately fatal pulmonary disease although there are notable variations in clinical features. This heterogeneity is thought to lie outside the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene locus and may stem from deficiencies in the antiproteinase screen that protects the lung from proteolytic attack. One hundred and fifty seven patients were recruited from two UK CF centres. The serum concentrations of alpha1-antitrypsin, alpha1-antichymotrypsin and C-reactive protein (CRP) were determined and patients were screened for the common S and Z deficiency alleles of alpha1-antitrypsin and the G-->A mutation in the 3' noncoding region of the alpha1-antitrypsin gene (Taq-I G-->A allele). Alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency phenotypes were detected in 20 (16 MS, 1 S and 3 MZ) out of 147 unrelated tested CF patients and were, surprisingly, associated with significantly better lung function (adjusted mean forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) 62.5% of predicted for deficient group and 51.1% pred for normal alleles; p=0.043). The Taq-I G-->A allele was found in 21 out of 150 unrelated patients and had no significant effect on CF lung disease or on levels of alpha1-antitrypsin during the inflammatory response. We show here that, contrary to current thinking, common mutations of alpha1-antitrypsin that are associated with mild to moderate deficiency of the protein predict a subgroup of cystic fibrosis patients with less severe pulmonary disease. Moreover, the Taq-I G-->A allele has no effect on serum levels of alpha1-antitrypsin in the inflammatory response, which suggests that the previously reported association of the Taq-I G-->A allele with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is not mediated by its effect on the serum level of alpha1-antitrypsin.

Mutation detection and single-molecule counting using isothermal rolling-circle amplification.
Nat Genet. 1998 Jul;19(3):225-32., [PMID:9662393]
Abstract [show]
Rolling-circle amplification (RCA) driven by DNA polymerase can replicate circularized oligonucleotide probes with either linear or geometric kinetics under isothermal conditions. In the presence of two primers, one hybridizing to the + strand, and the other, to the - strand of DNA, a complex pattern of DNA strand displacement ensues that generates 10(9) or more copies of each circle in 90 minutes, enabling detection of point mutations in human genomic DNA. Using a single primer, RCA generates hundreds of tandemly linked copies of a covalently closed circle in a few minutes. If matrix-associated, the DNA product remains bound at the site of synthesis, where it may be tagged, condensed and imaged as a point light source. Linear oligonucleotide probes bound covalently on a glass surface can generate RCA signals, the colour of which indicates the allele status of the target, depending on the outcome of specific, target-directed ligation events. As RCA permits millions of individual probe molecules to be counted and sorted using colour codes, it is particularly amenable for the analysis of rare somatic mutations. RCA also shows promise for the detection of padlock probes bound to single-copy genes in cytological preparations.

Partial restoration of cAMP-stimulated CFTR chloride channel activity in DeltaF508 cells by deoxyspergualin.
Am J Physiol. 1998 Jul;275(1 Pt 1):C171-8., [PMID:9688848]
Abstract [show]
Deletion of the codon encoding phenylalanine 508 (DeltaF508) is the most common mutation in cystic fibrosis (CF) and results in a trafficking defect. Mutant DeltaF508-CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein retains functional activity, but the nascent protein is recognized as abnormal and, in consequence, is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and degraded. It has been proposed that this retention in the ER is mediated, at least in part, by the cellular chaperones heat shock protein (HSP) 70 and calnexin. We have investigated the ability of deoxyspergualin (DSG), a compound known to compete effectively for binding with HSP70 and HSP90, to promote trafficking of DeltaF508-CFTR to the cell membrane. We show that DSG treatment of immortalized human CF epithelial cells (DeltaF508) and cells expressing recombinant DeltaF508-CFTR partially restored cAMP-stimulated CFTR Cl- channel activity at the plasma membrane. Although there are several possible explanations for these results, one simple interpretation is that DSG may have altered the interaction between DeltaF508-CFTR and its associated chaperones. If this is correct, agents capable of altering the normal functioning of cellular chaperones may provide yet another means of restoring CFTR Cl- channel activity to CF subjects harboring this class of mutations.

Cystic fibrosis screening: a fetus with hyperechogenic bowel may be the index case.
J Med Genet. 1998 Aug;35(8):657-60., [PMID:9719372]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The potential of hyperechogenic fetal bowel to act as a hallmark for prenatal cystic fibrosis screening in the general population is controversial. METHODS: Our goal was to evaluate the incidence of cystic fibrosis in 209 fetuses with hyperechogenic bowel diagnosed at routine ultrasonography and with no family history of cystic fibrosis. The diagnosis of cystic fibrosis was based on prenatal screening for the eight mutations most frequently observed in France (deltaF508, deltaI507, 1717-1G-->A, G542X, G551D, R553X, W1282X, N1303K) and at postnatal follow up. RESULTS: The overall incidence of cystic fibrosis was 7/209 (3.3%) which is 84 times the estimated risk of CF in the general population (112500). Of these seven cases, six were diagnosed prenatally based on DNA analysis (deltaF508/deltaF508, n=5; deltaF508/G542X, n=1). One case in which only one mutation had been recognised was diagnosed clinically after birth (deltaF508/unidentified mutation). Of the seven cases, none was diagnosed at 16-19 weeks, four at 16-24 weeks, and three after this. The incidence of heterozygous fetuses (15/209, 7%) was not significantly higher than the 5% expected in the general population. The mutations involved in these heterozygous cases were deltaF508 (n=13), G542X (n=1), and G551D (n=1). CONCLUSIONS: Screening for cystic fibrosis should be offered to families in which fetal hyperechogenic bowel is diagnosed at routine ultrasonography. This underlines the need to review genetic counselling in this situation where the fetus is the index case for a genetic disease.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The pancreatic lesions of cystic fibrosis develop in utero and closely resemble those of chronic pancreatitis. Therefore, we hypothesized that mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene may be more common than expected among patients with chronic pancreatitis. METHODS: We studied 134 consecutive patients with chronic pancreatitis (alcohol-related disease in 71, hyperparathyroidism in 2, hypertriglyceridemia in 1, and idiopathic disease in 60). We examined DNA for 22 mutations of the CFTR gene that together account for 95 percent of all mutations in patients with cystic fibrosis in the northwest of England. We also determined the length of the noncoding sequence of thymidines in intron 8, since the shorter the sequence, the lower the proportion of normal CFTR messenger RNA. RESULTS: The 94 male and 40 female patients ranged in age from 16 to 86 years. None had a mutation on both copies of the CFTR gene. Eighteen patients (13.4 percent), including 12 without alcoholism, had a CFTR mutation on one chromosome, as compared with a frequency of 5.3 percent among 600 local unrelated partners of persons with a family history of cystic fibrosis (P<0.001). A total of 10.4 percent of the patients had the 5T allele in intron 8 (14 of 134), which is twice the expected frequency (P=0.008). Four patients were heterozygous for both a CFTR mutation and the 5T allele. Patients with a CFTR mutation were younger than those with no mutations (P=0.03). None had the combination of sinopulmonary disease, high sweat electrolyte concentrations, and low nasal potential-difference values that are diagnostic of cystic fibrosis. CONCLUSIONS: Mutations of the CFTR gene and the 5T genotype are associated with chronic pancreatitis.

N Engl J Med. 1998 Sep 3;339(10):653-8., 1998-09-03 [PMID:9725922]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: It is unknown whether genetic factors predispose patients to idiopathic pancreatitis. In patients with cystic fibrosis, mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene typically cause pulmonary and pancreatic insufficiency while rarely causing pancreatitis. We examined whether idiopathic pancreatitis is associated with CFTR mutations in persons who do not have lung disease of cystic fibrosis. METHODS: We studied 27 patients (mean age at diagnosis, 36 years), 22 of whom were female, who had been referred for an evaluation of idiopathic pancreatitis. DNA was tested for 17 CFTR mutations and for the 5T allele in intron 8 of the CFTR gene. The 5T allele reduces the level of functional CFTR and is associated with an inherited form of infertility in males. Patients with two abnormal CFTR alleles were further evaluated for unrecognized cystic fibrosis-related lung disease, and both base-line and CFTR-mediated ion transport were measured in the nasal mucosa. RESULTS: Ten patients with idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (37 percent) had at least one abnormal CFTR allele. Eight CFTR mutations were detected (prevalence ratio, 11:1; 95 percent confidence interval, 5 to 23; P<0.001). In three patients both alleles were affected (prevalence ratio, 80:1; 95 percent confidence interval, 17 to 379; P<0.001). These three patients did not have lung disease typical of cystic fibrosis on the basis of sweat testing, spirometry, or base-line nasal potential-difference measurements. Nonetheless, each had abnormal nasal cyclic AMP-mediated chloride transport. CONCLUSION: In a group of patients referred for evaluation of idiopathic pancreatitis, there was a strong association between mutations in the CFTR gene and pancreatitis. The abnormal CFTR genotypes in these patients with pancreatitis resemble those associated with male infertility.

Development and validation of a screening test for 12 common mutations of the cystic fibrosis CFTR gene.
Eur Respir J. 1998 Aug;12(2):477-82., [PMID:9727805]
Abstract [show]
The results obtained using deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) amplification-based tests must be accurate and reproducible. One such test that simultaneously detects any of 12 of the most common mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene is presented in this report. An investigation was conducted into how changes of primer, DNA template and Taq DNA polymerase concentrations and of polymerase chain reaction annealing temperatures affect the test. A total of 383 DNA samples obtained from different laboratories was then examined. The preliminary studies defined the conditions under which accurate results are obtained even if the test is performed under suboptimal conditions. Subsequently, 377 (98.4%) of the DNA samples analysed were in full agreement with DNA typing results derived by other methods. The remaining 1.6% of samples were not mistyped, rather they were not scored owing to failure to detect control DNA sequences. These were also archival DNA preparations rather than freshly prepared samples from venous blood. Careful primer design and optimization of reaction conditions are important in the development of multiplex deoxyribonucleic acid amplification-based diagnostic tests. Providing the recommended protocols are followed, the test described here is simple to carry out, gives accurate results and works well if performed within defined operational windows for each reaction variable.

Nasal potential difference in congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens.
Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 1998 Sep;158(3):896-901., [PMID:9731023]
Abstract [show]
Congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) is supposed to be due to defective activity of the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in the genital tract. With the aim of studying CFTR activity in vivo we measured nasal potential difference (NPD) in a group of CBAVD subjects, who were then compared with normal control subjects and CF patients. Sodium transport, measured under basal conditions and after amiloride superinfusion, was normal in almost all CBAVD patients, who had NPD values similar to those of normal control subjects. Chloride transport was studied by measuring NPD during perfusion with a chloride-free solution and isoproterenol. Under these circumstances CBAVD patients as a whole showed normal chloride secretion. However, three subjects with CBAVD had abnormal NPD values. They had either elevated sweat chloride concentrations together with symptoms of mild CF, or compound heterozygosity (DeltaF508/R117H). In conclusion the group of CBAVD patients as a whole presented normal bioelectric properties of nasal epithelium, suggesting normal CFTR activity. In a small subgroup NPD was abnormal, suggesting a diagnosis of CF, later confirmed by elevated sweat chloride concentrations or positive DNA testing. We suggest that CBAVD patients with altered NPD should undergo further clinical follow-up in order to detect possible late complications of CF.

Testicular CFTR splice variants in patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens.
Hum Mol Genet. 1998 Oct;7(11):1739-43., [PMID:9736775]
Abstract [show]
The involvement of the five thymidine (5T) variant in intron 8 of the cystic fibrosis membrane regulator (CFTR) gene in congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) phenotype has been extensively demonstrated. This variant leads to alternative splicing of the CFTR gene which results in a wild-type transcript and one without exon 9. Little is known about expression of the CFTR gene in the testis. We analysed the level of the aberrantly spliced transcripts in testicular biopsies and correlated it with disease expression. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis in testicular biopsies from control and CBAVD patients showed a correlation between the length of the IVS8-6(T) n tract and the level of alternatively spliced transcripts. Results from histological analysis also suggest an involvement of the alternative transcript in the spermatogenic status of patients, leading to a decreased number of mature sperm forms in the tubule.

Characterization of 19 disease-associated missense mutations in the regulatory domain of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator.
Hum Mol Genet. 1998 Oct;7(11):1761-9., [PMID:9736778]
Abstract [show]
In order to gain a better insight into the structure and function of the regulatory domain (RD) of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein, 19 RD missense mutations that had been identified in patients were functionally characterized. Nine of these (I601F, L610S, A613T, D614G, I618T, L619S, H620P, G628R and L633P) resulted in aberrant processing. No or a very small number of functional CFTR proteins will therefore appear at the cell membrane in cells expressing these mutants. These mutations were clustered in the N-terminal part of the RD, suggesting that this subdomain has a folding pattern that is very sensitive to amino acid changes. Mutations that caused no aberrant processing were further characterized at the electrophysiological level. First, they were studied at the whole cell level in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Mutants that induced a whole cell current that was significantly different from wild-type CFTR were subsequently analysed at the single channel level in COS1 cells transiently expressing the different mutant and wild-type proteins. Three mutant chloride channels, G622D, R792G and E822K CFTR, were characterized by significantly lower intrinsic chloride channel activities compared with wild-type CFTR. Two mutations, H620Q and A800G, resulted in increased intrinsic chloride transport activities. Finally, T665S and E826K CFTR had single channel properties not significantly different from wild-type CFTR.

Molecular basis of cystic fibrosis in the Republic of Macedonia.

Abstract [show]
Eighty-three cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and their families, belonging to various ethnic groups living in the Republic of Macedonia were studied for molecular defects in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, and for the associated extragenic marker loci XV-2c and KM19. The DNA methodology used included characterization of CFTR mutations in 19 exons (and flanking sequences) of the gene and analysis of distribution of the XV-2c/KM19 haplotypes among normal (N) and CF chromosomes by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification followed by dot blot hybridization, restriction digestion, single-strand conformational polymorphism, constant denaturing gel electrophoresis, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, and sequencing. We identified 58.4% (97/166) of the CF chromosomes. Nine different CFTR gene mutations, including three novel ones, were found. Eight known and one new CFTR intragene polymorphisms were also characterized. The haplotype analysis of the XV-2c/TaqI and KM19/PstI polymorphic loci have shown that haplotype C is the most frequently found haplotype among the non-deltaF508 CF chromosomes from Macedonia (36.5%). The results demonstrate the broad heterogeneity of CF origin in this part of the Balkan Peninsula.

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) nucleotide-binding domain 1 (NBD-1) and CFTR truncated within NBD-1 target to the epithelial plasma membrane and increase anion permeability.
Biochemistry. 1998 Oct 27;37(43):15222-30., 1998-10-27 [PMID:9790686]
Abstract [show]
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a member of the traffic ATPase family that includes multiple proteins characterized by (1) ATP binding, (2) conserved transmembrane (TM) motifs and nucleotide binding domains (NBDs), and (3) molecular transport of small molecules across the cell membrane. While CFTR NBD-1 mediates ATP binding and hydrolysis, the membrane topology and function of this domain in living eukaryotic cells remains uncertain. In these studies, we have expressed wild-type CFTR NBD-1 (amino acids 433-586) or NBD-1 containing the DeltaF508 mutation transiently in COS-7 cells and established that the domain is situated across the plasma membrane by four independent assays; namely, extracellular chymotrypsin digestion, surface protein biotinylation, confocal immunofluorescent microscopy, and functional measurements of cell membrane anion permeability. Functional studies indicate that basal halide permeability is enhanced above control conditions following wild-type or DeltaF508 NBD-1 expression in three different epithelial cell lines. Furthermore, when clinically relevant CFTR proteins truncated within NBD-1 (R553X or G542X) are expressed, surface localization and enhanced halide permeability are again established. Together, these findings suggest that isolated CFTR NBD-1 (with or without the DeltaF508 mutation) is capable of targeting the epithelial cell membrane and enhancing cellular halide permeability. Furthermore, CFTR truncated at position 553 or 542 and possessing the majority of NBD-1 demonstrates surface localization and also confers increased halide permeability. These findings indicate that targeting to the plasma membrane and assumption of a transmembrane configuration are innate properties of the CFTR NBD-1. The results also support the notion that components of the halide-selective pore of CFTR reside within NBD-1.

Relationships between nasal potential difference and respiratory function in adults with cystic fibrosis.

Abstract [show]
This study investigated the relations between nasal transepithelial electric potential difference (PD) and the phenotype and genotype of cystic fibrosis (CF) adult patients. Basal nasal PD was measured in 95 adult CF patients who were classified into three groups of nasal PD (expressed as absolute values) according to the 10th and the 90th percentiles (28.3 and 49.2 mV, respectively), which defined group 1 (nasal PD < or =28.3 mV), group 2 (nasal PD 28.3-49.2 mV) and group 3 (nasal PD > or =49.2 mV). Patients from group 1 had a higher forced vital capacity (FVC) than patients from groups 2 and 3 (76.5+/-22.4 versus 57.4+/-21.2 and 55.7+/-21.1% predicted, respectively, p<0.05) and a higher forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) (69.3+/-24.0 versus 42.5+/-22.4 and 42.2+/-21.4% pred, respectively, p<0.01). Among patients with severe mutations (deltaF508 homozygotes, or one deltaF508 mutation plus another "severe" mutation, or two "severe" mutations), patients from group 1 had a higher FVC, FEV1 and arterial oxygen tension than patients from groups 2 and 3 (p<0.05 for each comparison). The results show that in adult cystic fibrosis patients a normal basal nasal potential difference is related to milder respiratory disease, irrespective of the severity of the genotype.

Validation of double gradient denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis through multigenic retrospective analysis.
Clin Chem. 1999 Jan;45(1):35-40., [PMID:9895335]
Abstract [show]
Among established techniques for the identification of either known or new mutations, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) is one of the most effective. However, conventional DGGE is affected by major drawbacks that limit its routine application: the different denaturant gradient ranges and migration times required for different DNA fragments. We developed a modified version of DGGE for high-throughput mutational analysis, double gradient DGGE (DG-DGGE), by superimposing a porous gradient over the denaturant gradient, which maintains the zone-sharpening effect even during lengthy analyses. Because of this innovation, DG-DGGE achieves the double goals of retaining full effectiveness in the detection of mutations while allowing identical run time conditions for all fragments analyzed. Here we use retrospective analysis of a large number of well-characterized mutations and polymorphisms, spanning all predicted melting domains and the whole genomic sequence of three different genes--the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), the beta-globin, and the p53 genes--to demonstrate that DG-DGGE may be applied to the rapid scanning of any sequence variation.

Clinical and genetic risk factors for cystic fibrosis-related liver disease.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to define the role of possible risk factors for the development of cystic fibrosis (CF)-related liver disease and to analyze the association between liver disease and the different genotypes present in the Israeli CF patient population. PATIENTS AND METHODS: All patients followed at the seven CF centers in Israel were included in this study. Liver disease was determined by persistently elevated serum liver enzymes and/or bilirubin, and/or significant ultrasonographic changes suggestive of chronic liver disease. The following clinical parameters were evaluated: ethnic origin, age at assessment of liver function, sex, history of meconium ileus, pancreatic function, history of distal intestinal obstruction syndrome, pulmonary function, and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator mutation analysis. RESULTS: Of the 288 patients screened, 80 (28%) had liver disease. Of the 256 patients with pancreatic insufficiency, 80 (31%) had liver disease compared with none of the 32 patients with pancreatic sufficiency. Genotype-phenotype correlation was performed on 207 patients carrying identified mutations that were previously classified according to phenotype severity. Liver disease was found in 56 (32%) of 173 patients carrying mutations associated with a severe phenotype and in 6 (38%) of 16 patients carrying at least one mutation associated with a variable genotype (G85E and/or 5T allele). None of the 18 patients carrying the 3849+10kb C->T mutation had liver disease. Prevalence of liver disease increased with age. No correlation was found between liver disease and severity of lung disease, nutritional status, history of meconium ileus, or distal intestinal obstruction syndrome. CONCLUSION: CF patients who have pancreatic insufficiency and carry mutations associated with a severe or a variable genotype are at increased risk to develop liver disease.

CFTR mutations in patients from Colombia: implications for local and regional molecular diagnosis programs.
Hum Mutat. 2003 Sep;22(3):259., [PMID:12938099]
Abstract [show]
Cystic Fibrosis is a worldwide distributed hereditary disease. The incidence of the main (p.F508del) and other frequent mutations has been determined in a great number of countries and ethnic groups, but its incidence in most Latin American countries has remained unknown until recently. It is now beginning to be recognized as a frequent cause of infant mortality, and some countries report the incidence of their mutations. Colombia started several years ago a concerted program of molecular study of patients which were clinically diagnosed as probable cystic fibrosis. We screened the whole CFTR (ABCC7) coding sequence in 92 patients from 6 different geographic regions, using conventional PAGE analyses and DGGE followed by sequencing. Additionally, we established the frequency of the p.F508del mutation in 130 unrelated healthy controls. The results of this pilot study in Colombian patients from various ethnic admixture show six main mutations: p.F508del (41.8%), c.1811+1.6kbA>G (6.5%), p.G542X (3.8%), p.S549R (2.2%), p.W1282X (1.1%) and p.R1162X (1.1%). Thirteen other rare mutations, including three novel, were detected, accounting for a total of 63.6% known mutations. There is a great variability between the geographic regions, both in the frequency of the p.F508del mutation and non-p.F508del CF chromosomes. Our results point to a varied origin of the disease genes. These results also show that careful scrutiny of the mutations is needed in each part of Latin America in order to establish priority-screening protocols adapted to each country and region.

Detection of CFTR mutations using temporal temperature gradient gel electrophoresis.
Electrophoresis. 2004 Aug;25(15):2593-601., [PMID:15300780]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF), caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, is one of the most common autosomal recessive diseases with variable incidences and mutation spectra among different ethnic groups. Current commercially available mutation panels designed for the analysis of known recurrent mutations have a detection rate between 38 to 95%, depending upon the ethnic background of the patient. We describe the application of a novel mutation detection method, temporal temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TTGE), to the study of the molecular genetics of Hispanic CF patients. TTGE effectively identified numerous rare and novel mutations and polymorphisms. One interesting observation is that the majority of the novel mutations are splice site, frame shift, or nonsense mutations that cause severe clinical phenotypes. Our data demonstrate that screening of the 27 exons and intron/exon junctions of the CFTR gene by TTGE greatly improves the molecular diagnosis of Hispanic CF patients.

Increased risk of idiopathic chronic pancreatitis in cystic fibrosis carriers.
Hum Mutat. 2005 Oct;26(4):303-7., [PMID:16134171]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a recessive disease caused by mutations of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. The risk of idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (ICP) is increased in individuals who have CFTR genotypes containing a CF-causing mutation plus a second pathogenic allele. It is unknown whether the risk of ICP is increased in CF carriers who have one CF-causing mutation plus one normal allele. In this study, 52 sporadic cases of ICP were ascertained through the European Registry of Hereditary Pancreatitis and Familial Pancreatic Cancer. Individuals with pathogenic cationic trypsinogen mutations were excluded. DNA was comprehensively tested for CFTR mutations using a robotically enhanced, multiplexed, and highly redundant form of single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis followed by DNA sequencing. Fifteen subjects had a total of 18 pathogenic CFTR alleles. Eight subjects had common CF-causing mutations. This group included seven CF carriers in whom the second CFTR allele was normal (4.3 times the expected frequency, P=0.0002). Three subjects had compound heterozygotes genotypes containing two pathogenic alleles (31 times the expected frequency, P<0.0001). A variant allele of uncertain significance (p.R75Q) was detected in eight of the 52 ICP subjects and at a similar frequency (13/96) in random donors. ICP differs from other established CFTR-related conditions in that ICP risk is increased in CF carriers who have one documented normal CFTR allele. Having two CFTR mutations imparts a higher relative risk, while having only one mutation imparts a higher attributable risk.

A frequent large rearrangement in the CFTR gene in cystic fibrosis patients from Reunion Island.
Genet Test. 2006 Fall;10(3):208-14., [PMID:17020473]
Abstract [show]
Reunion Island is a French province, 800 km east of Madagascar and 200 km west of Mauritius. On Reunion Island, the birth prevalence of cystic fibrosis (CF) is particularly high in the population of European origin, approximately 1:1000. In a previous study, we demonstrated that the screening of the 27 exons of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene by denaturing high-pressure liquid chromatography (DHPLC) in 114 CF families allowed the detection of about 93% of the molecular defects present on Reunion Island. Unidentified CF mutations may lie in introns or in regulatory regions that are not routinely investigated, or may correspond to gene rearrangements such as large, heterozygous deletions that escape detection using current PCR-based techniques. Using a combination of different methods (such as multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification), 6 of the 13 unidentified CF alleles (46%) were found to harbor a deletion of 5288 bp, spanning from exon 17a to 18. Identification and examination of the breakpoint sequences showed that this deletion is different from the 3120+1kbdel8.6Kb previously found in the Palestinian Arabs. The chromosomes bearing IVS16+3316_IVS18+644del5288 did not have a common extragenic haplotype. Clinical evaluation of homozygotes (2 unrelated patients) and compound heterozygotes indicated that this deletion represents a severe mutation associated with positive sweat chloride test, pancreatic insufficiency, and early age at diagnosis.

Spectrum of mutations in the CFTR gene in cystic fibrosis patients of Spanish ancestry.
Ann Hum Genet. 2007 Mar;71(Pt 2):194-201., [PMID:17331079]
Abstract [show]
We analyzed 1,954 Spanish cystic fibrosis (CF) alleles in order to define the molecular spectrum of mutations in the CFTR gene in Spanish CF patients. Commercial panels showed a limited detection power, leading to the identification of only 76% of alleles. Two scanning techniques, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and single strand conformation polymorphism/hetroduplex (SSCP/HD), were carried out to detect CFTR sequence changes. In addition, intragenic markers IVS8CA, IVS8-6(T)n and IVS17bTA were also analyzed. Twelve mutations showed frequencies above 1%, p.F508del being the most frequent mutation (51%). We found that eighteen mutations need to be studied to achieve a detection level of 80%. Fifty-one mutations (42%) were observed once. In total, 121 disease-causing mutations were identified, accounting for 96% (1,877 out of 1,954) of CF alleles. Specific geographic distributions for the most common mutations, p.F508del, p.G542X, c.1811 + 1.6kbA > G and c.1609delCA, were confirmed. Furthermore, two other relatively common mutations (p.V232D and c.2789 + 5G > A) showed uneven geographic distributions. This updated information on the spectrum of CF mutations in Spain will be useful for improving genetic testing, as well as to facilitate counselling in people of Spanish ancestry. In addition, this study contributes to defining the molecular spectrum of CF in Europe, and corroborates the high molecular mutation heterogeneity of Mediterranean populations.

Abstract [show]
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis is an alternative for prenatal diagnosis that makes it possible to perform the diagnosis of a chromosomal or monogenic disorder at the preimplantation embryo level. Cystic fibrosis is one of the monogenic diseases for which PGD can be performed. In this study, we looked at the requests and PGD cycles for this particular disorder over an 11-year period. Sixty-eight percent of the requests eventually led to at least one complete PGD cycle. In 80% of the cycles, an embryo transfer was performed and an ongoing pregnancy was obtained in 22.2% of the cycles with oocyte retrieval. After embryo transfer, a couple had 27.8% chance of giving birth to a liveborn child. No misdiagnosis was recorded. The rate of perinatal deaths/stillborn children was relatively high, but no excess of major congenital anomalies was observed in the surviving children.

Mutations in the amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium channel in patients with cystic fibrosis-like disease.
Hum Mutat. 2009 Jul;30(7):1093-103., [PMID:19462466]
Abstract [show]
We investigated whether mutations in the genes that code for the different subunits of the amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) might result in cystic fibrosis (CF)-like disease. In a small fraction of the patients, the disease could be potentially explained by an ENaC mutation by a Mendelian mechanism, such as p.V114I and p.F61L in SCNN1A. More importantly, a more than three-fold significant increase in incidence of several rare ENaC polymorphisms was found in the patient group (30% vs. 9% in controls), indicating an involvement of ENaC in some patients by a polygenetic mechanism. Specifically, a significantly higher number of patients carried c.-55+5G>C or p.W493R in SCNN1A in the heterozygous state, with odds ratios (ORs) of 13.5 and 2.7, respectively.The p.W493R-SCNN1A polymorphism was even found to result in a four-fold more active ENaC channel when heterologously expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. About 1 in 975 individuals in the general population will be heterozygous for the hyperactive p.W493R-SCNN1A mutation and a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene that results in very low amounts (0-10%) functional CFTR. These ENaC/CFTR genotypes may play a hitherto unrecognized role in lung diseases.

Outcomes of a cystic fibrosis carrier testing clinic for couples.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To review the outcomes of offering carrier testing for cystic fibrosis (CF) to couples considering pregnancy, and to women in early pregnancy and their partners. METHODS: An after-hours clinic was established in Newcastle for discussion of issues related to prenatal testing. Couples were offered CF carrier testing by extracting DNA from a mouthwash sample. An expanded one-step model was used with both partners being tested initially for the p.F508del cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) mutation. If one partner was a p.F508del carrier, the other partner was tested for an additional 28 CFTR mutations. RESULTS: Of 1000 individuals who were offered CF carrier testing, none declined. No re-collections of mouthwash samples were required, and results were available within 14 days. There were 730 individuals who had no family history of CF (73%); 27 were carriers (4%; 95% CI, 2.4%-5.3%), and there were two high-risk couples where both partners were carriers of p.F508del. There were 270 individuals who had an affected family member with CF or a child identified as a CF carrier through newborn screening; 126 were carriers (46%; 95% CI, 40.6%-52.8%), and there were two high-risk couples - one couple where both partners were carriers of p.F508del, and another couple where the woman was homozygous for p.F508del and the man was a p.F508del carrier. The information on carrier status led the four high-risk couples to change their reproductive decisions to avoid having a child with CF. CONCLUSION: CF carrier testing for couples using an expanded one-step model will detect about 80% of high-risk couples and enables various reproductive choices. We believe that all couples considering pregnancy, and women in early pregnancy and their partners, should be offered CF carrier testing.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: In a population-based, well-defined group of patients first regarded as having pancreatitis of unknown origin (PUO), we identified, described, and compared the clinical and genetic aspects of patients with hereditary pancreatitis (HP) and with cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) and serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 1 gene (SPINK1) mutations with patients who retained the diagnosis of true idiopathic pancreatitis (tIP) after genetic testing for HP, SPINK1, and CFTR mutations. METHODS: Patients with PUO were identified in the Danish National Registry of Patients or were referred by clinicians. DNA from blood was analyzed for cationic trypsinogen (PRSS1), SPINK1, and CFTR mutations. Considering the diagnosis of HP, a pedigree was drawn for each patient. RESULTS: A genetic mutation was found in 40% of 122 patients with PUO. After testing first-degree relatives of the 18 initially identified HP patients, 38 HP patients in total were identified, and 28 patients had SPINK1-CFTR mutations. Among HP patients, no p.N29I mutations were found and the p.A16V mutation was more frequent than previously reported, 45 and 32% had exocrine and endocrine insufficiency, respectively, and among tIP patients 9 and 12%, respectively. Pancreatic cancer was diagnosed in 5% of the HP families. CONCLUSIONS: The genotype of the Danish population with HP differs from that of previously described cohorts. The occurrence of exocrine and endocrine insufficiency is higher among patients with HP than in patients with SPINK1-CFTR mutations and tIP, and more HP families develop pancreatic cancer. Genetic testing thus helps to predict the prognosis of the pancreatitis.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: CFTR gene mutations have worldwide differences in prevalence and data on Chilean patients is scarce. METHODS: We studied 36 of the most common CFTR mutations in Chilean patients from the CF National Program [Programa Nacional de Fibrosis Quistica (PNFQ)] of the Ministry of Health of Chile. RESULTS: Two hundred and eighty-nine patients were studied. Fourteen different mutations were identified with an overall allele detection rate of 42.0%. Mutations with frequencies greater than 1% were p.F508del (30.3% of alleles), p.R334W (3.3%), p.G542X (2.4%), c.3849+10Kb C>T (1.7%), and p.R553X (1.2%). A north to south geographical gradient was observed in the overall rate of detection. CONCLUSIONS: Southern European CFTR mutations predominate in the Chilean population, but a high percentage of alleles remain unknown. Geographical heterogeneity could be explained in part by admixture. Complementary analyses are necessary to allow for effective genetic counselling and improve cost-effectiveness of screening and diagnostic tests.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis is the most common lethal recessive disorder among Caucasians. Over 1500 mutations have been identified in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator disease-gene so far. A large variability of the clinical phenotype has been observed both in cystic fibrosis patients bearing the same genotype, and in affected sibpairs. Thus, genes inherited independently from cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator could modulate the clinical expression of cystic fibrosis. METHODS: We analysed some putative modifier genes of liver cystic fibrosis phenotype (serpin 1, hemochromatosis, transferrin receptor 2, ferroportin 1, mannose binding lectin and adenosine triphospate-binding cassette subfamily B member 4) in 108 unrelated cystic fibrosis patients with and without liver involvement. RESULTS: HYPD mannose binding lectin haplotype was significantly (p<0.05) more frequent in cystic fibrosis patients with liver disease versus those without liver disease. This haplotype already related to a more severe pulmonary cystic fibrosis phenotype, is associated to a reduced MBL immunological activity. The c.834-66G>T variant of adenosine triphospate-binding cassette subfamily B member 4 gene was significantly (p<0.05) less frequent in cystic fibrosis patients with liver disease as compared to those with no liver disease. CONCLUSIONS: The HYPD mannose binding lectin haplotype may predispose a subgroup of cystic fibrosis patients to a more severe liver involvement impairing the local defence mechanisms whereas the c.834-66G>T adenosine triphospate-binding cassette subfamily B member 4 variant may enhance the activity of the protein and thus exert a protective effect toward liver disease.

Itraconazole treatment of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in patients with cystic fibrosis.
Allergy. 2002 Aug;57(8):723-8., [PMID:12121192]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients is a potentially fatal inflammatory disease due to the dual-type immune response provoked by the fungal antigens. Despite serious side effects long-term treatment with corticosteroids is often required. Itraconazole has been reported to be a useful steroid-sparing agent. METHODS: In a retrospective follow-up of 21 CF patients from a total of 250 treated once or twice within a five-year study period (1994-98), 9 patients were treated with systemic glucocorticosteroids in combination with itraconazole and 12 patients were treated with itraconazole (200-600 mg/day) as monotherapy. RESULTS: During treatment the percentage of Aspergillus fumigatus (AF)-positive sputum cultures significantly reduced (P < 0.05); precipitating antibodies to AF decreased significantly in all patients (P < 0.05); forced expiratory volume (FEV1) increased to pre-exacerbation level; total IgE levels decreased in 42% of patients on monotherapy and in 56% on combination therapy. Specific IgE (radioallergosorbant; RAST) level decreased in 6 of 21 patients. Eleven patients had transient increased levels of alanine transaminase (ALAT). One patient had isolated increase in alkaline phosphatase and another in aspartate transaminase (ASAT). CONCLUSIONS: High dose itraconazole as monotherapy or in combination with systemic glucocorticosteroids seems effective in CF patients with ABPA. No hepatotoxicity was observed during long-term therapy.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a fatal genetic disease primarily affecting Caucasians, although cases have been reported from other ethnic groups. CF has a complex etiology, but it is chiefly a disease of electrolyte transport and is characterized by defects in fluid secretion by several epithelia, including the sweat duct, exocrine pancreas, and the pulmonary airways. The link between CF and a defect in cAMP-mediated Cl- transport in secretory epithelia was established in the early 1980s. Since then, numerous electrophysiological studies have focused on the characterization and regulation of individual Cl- channels underlying the macroscopic Cl- currents of secretory epithelia in the airways, sweat ducts, and gut. In this review the results of these studies in the light of current knowledge of the function of the CF gene product, the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein, will be analyzed. The CFTR protein is a member of a family of ATP-binding proteins that act as unidirectional solute pumps. These proteins are membrane spanning, are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, and have two ATP-binding domains. The family includes the p-glycoproteins that are involved with the expression of multidrug resistance in certain tumor cells. The majority of CF chromosomes (70%) have a single codon deletion that translates to a missing phenylalanine residue at position 508 (delta F508) of the protein. Unique for this family of proteins, the CFTR protein possesses an additional highly charged domain (the R domain) containing several consensus polypeptide sequences for kinase phosphorylation. Although CFTR bears structural resemblance to this family of ATP-dependent pumps, overexpression of the protein in a variety of different cell types is associated with the appearence of a cAMP-sensitive Cl- channel. We critically examine current information concerning the structure-function relationships of the CFTR protein obtained from both electrophysiological and biochemical approaches. We also summarize recent evidence suggesting that the CFTR protein may act as a pump and a channel, a hypothesis in keeping with the multifaceted nature of the disease.

Quantitative expression patterns of multidrug-resistance P-glycoprotein (MDR1) and differentially spliced cystic-fibrosis transmembrane-conductance regulator mRNA transcripts in human epithelia.
Eur J Biochem. 1992 May 15;206(1):137-49., [PMID:1375156]
Abstract [show]
P-glycoprotein (MDR1), that confers multidrug resistance in cancer, and the cystic-fibrosis transmembrane-conductance regulator (CFTR), that is causative defective in cystic fibrosis, belong to the family of ATP-binding transport proteins. The expression of MDR1 and CFTR in human epithelial tissues and the cell lines T84 and HT29 was estimated by primer-directed reverse transcription (RT) and subsequent monitoring of the kinetics of cDNA product formation during the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). MDR1 mRNA was found in high levels, 15-50 amol mRNA/microgram RNA, in the intestine, kidney, liver and placenta, and in low levels, 0.2 amol/microgram RNA, in respiratory epithelium. Large amounts of CFTR mRNA were measured in the gastrointestinal tract, whereas the kidney, as the phenotypically normal organ, and the lung, as the most severely affected organ in cystic fibrosis, both contained low amounts, 3 amol CFTR/microgram RNA. CFTR transcript levels of 1-5 amol/microgram RNA were determined in lymphocytes and lymphoblast cell lines, suggesting that lymphoblasts are an accessible source for the study of the molecular pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis. When transcripts were scanned by overlapping RT/PCR analyses, only transcript of expected size was detected for MDR1 mRNA, where variable in-frame deletions of either exon 4, 9 or 12 were observed in CFTR mRNA. The complete loss of single exons was seen at proportions of 1-40% in all investigated tissues and cell lines with large donor-to-donor variation. Exons 9 and 12 of the CFTR gene encode parts of the evolutionarily well-conserved first nucleotide-binding fold including the two Walker motifs. Alternative splicing may give rise to various CFTR forms of different function and localization.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a cAMP-activated Cl(-) and HCO(3)(-) conducting channel, mutations of which are known to be associated with male infertility. However, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. METHODS Literature databases were searched for papers on the topics related to CFTR and male fertility and infertility with relevant keywords. Unpublished data from authors' laboratory were also included for analysis. RESULTS Clinical evidence shows increased mutation frequency or reduced CFTR expression in men with congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens (CBAVD) or sperm abnormalities, such as azoospermia teratospermia and oligoasthenospermia. Studies on primary rodent Sertoli cells and germ cells, as well as testes from CFTR knockout mice or a cryptorchidism model, yield findings indicating the involvement of CFTR in spermatogensis through the HCO(3)(-)/sAC/cAMP/CREB(CREM) pathway and the NF-kappaB/COX-2/PGE(2) pathway. Evidence also reveals a critical role of CFTR in sperm capacitation by directly or indirectly mediating HCO(3)(-) entry that is essential for capacitation. CFTR is emerging as a versatile player with roles in mediating different signaling pathways pertinent to various reproductive processes, in addition to its long-recognized role in electrolyte and fluid transport that regulates the luminal microenvironment of the male reproductive tract. CONCLUSIONS CFTR is a key regulator of male fertility, a defect of which may result in different forms of male infertility other than CBAVD. It would be worthwhile to further investigate the potential of developing novel diagnostic and contraceptive methods targeting CFTR.

Abstract [show]
For cystic fibrosis (CF) patients most therapies focus on alleviating the disease symptoms. Yet the cellular basis of the disease has been well studied; mutations in the CF gene can impair folding, secretion, cell surface stability, and/or function of the CFTR chloride channel. Correction of these basic defects has been a challenge, but indicates that a deeper understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanism of mutations is a prerequisite for developing more efficient therapies.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis is the most common life-threatening recessively inherited disease in Caucasians. Due to early provision of care in specialized reference centers and more comprehensive care, survival has improved over time. Despite great advances in supportive care and in our understanding of its pathophysiology, there is still no cure for the disease. Therapeutic strategies aimed at rescuing the abnormal protein are either being sought after or under investigation. This review highlights salient insights into pathophysiology and candidate molecules suitable for CFTR pharmacotherapy. Clinical trials using Ataluren, VX-809 and ivacaftor have provided encouraging data. Preclinical data with inhibitors of phosphodiesterase type 5, such as sildenafil and analogs, have highlighted their potential for CFTR pharmacotherapy. Because sildenafil and analogs are in clinical use for other clinical applications, research on this class of drugs might speed up the development of new therapies for CF.

Abstract [show]
States develop specific protocols for cystic fibrosis (CF) newborn screening to reflect the population served. We hypothesized that mutation distribution and detection rates would differ between Hispanic and non-Hispanic CF patients diagnosed by IL newborn screen with more Hispanic infants carrying mutations not detected by the state panel. Data from CF cases diagnosed via newborn screen in IL between 3/1/2008 and 10/31/2010 were reviewed. More Hispanic infants with CF had one or more undefined mutations after screening, in comparison to non-Hispanic Caucasian patients (40% vs. 9.5%; p < 0.002). The risk of having a positive diagnosis of CF with only one mutation noted by positive newborn screen increases 2-fold in Hispanic Caucasian versus non-Hispanic Caucasian infants (5% vs. 2.4%). Health care providers must be aware of the limitations of CF newborn screening to ensure appropriate counseling and prompt referral for a positive newborn screen, even when zero or one mutations are identified.

Polymorphisms in ADRB2 gene can modulate the response to bronchodilators and the severity of cystic fibrosis.
BMC Pulm Med. 2012 Sep 5;12(1):50., [PMID:22950544]
Abstract [show]
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: The most common cystic fibrosis (CF) manifestation is the progressive chronic obstructive pulmonary disease caused by deficiency, dysfunction, or absence of the CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator) protein on the apical surface of the cells in the respiratory tract. The use of bronchodilators (BD), and inhaled corticosteroids (IC) have been suggested for the management of airway inflammation in CF. The effectiveness of BD and IC have been verified, proven in laboratory and in the clinical treatment for asthma patients. However, in CF, the effectiveness of these drugs is controversial. The extent of asthma's response to BD depends on the presence of polymorphisms in the ADRB2 gene. In contrast, in CF, little is known about the response to the BD and the association of CF's severity with the different polymorphisms in ADRB2 gene. In this context, our objective was to verify whether the Arg16Gly and Glu27Gln polymorphisms in ADRB2 gene are associated with severity and with the bronchodilator response in CF patients. METHOD: Cross-sectional study of 122 CF patients subjected to analysis of mutations in the CFTR gene, polymorphisms in ADRB2 gene, along with clinical and laboratorial characteristics of severity. Result The Arg16Gly polymorphism in ADRB2 gene was associated with pancreatic insufficiency(p:0.009), Bhalla score(p:0.039), forced expiratory volume in the first second[FEV1(%)](p:0.003), forced expiratory flow between 25 and 75% of the forced vital capacity-FVC[FEF25-75(%)](p:0.008) and lower age at the first isolation of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa(p:0.012). The response to the BD spirometry was associated with clinical severity markers, FEV1(%)(p:0.011) and FEF25-75(%)(p:0.019), for the Arg16Gly polymorphism in the ADRB2 gene. The haplotype analysis showed association with the FEV1/FVC marker from the spirometry test, before and after using the BD, with higher values in the group with Gly/Gly and Glu/Glu, respectively, for the Arg16Gly and Gln27Glu polymorphisms. The analysis by MDR2.0 software, showed association with FEF25-75%; the response to Arg16Gly was respondent by 17.35% and Gln27Glu by 6.8% in variation found. CONCLUSION: There was an association between the Arg16Gly and Gln27Glu polymorphisms in ADRB2 gene with CF's severity and bronchodilator response.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The pancreas is one of the primary organs affected by dysfunction of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. While exocrine pancreatic insufficiency is a well-recognized complication of cystic fibrosis (CF), symptomatic pancreatitis is often under-recognized. RESULTS: The aim of this review is to provide a general overview of CFTR mutation-associated pancreatitis, which affects patients with pancreatic sufficient CF, CFTR-related pancreatitis, and idiopathic pancreatitis. The current hypothesis regarding the role of CFTR dysfunction in the pathogenesis of pancreatitis, and concepts on genotype-phenotype correlations between CFTR and symptomatic pancreatitis will be reviewed. Symptomatic pancreatitis occurs in 20% of pancreatic sufficient CF patients. In order to evaluate genotype-phenotype correlations, the Pancreatic Insufficiency Prevalence (PIP) score was developed and validated to determine severity in a large number of CFTR mutations. Specific CFTR genotypes are significantly associated with pancreatitis. Patients who carry genotypes with mild phenotypic effects have a greater risk of developing pancreatitis than patients carrying genotypes with moderate-severe phenotypic consequences at any given time. CONCLUSIONS: The genotype-phenotype correlation in pancreatitis is unique compared to other organ manifestations but still consistent with the complex monogenic nature of CF. Paradoxically, genotypes associated with otherwise mild phenotypic effects have a greater risk for causing pancreatitis; compared with genotypes associated with moderate to severe disease phenotypes. Greater understanding into the underlying mechanisms of disease is much needed. The emergence of CFTR-assist therapies may potentially play a future role in the treatment of CFTR-mutation associated pancreatitis.

Abstract [show]
Newborn screening for cystic fibrosis (NBS CF) in Poland was started in September 2006. Summary from 4 years' experience is presented in this study. The immunoreactive trypsin/DNA sequencing strategy was implemented. The group of 1 212 487 newborns were screened for cystic fibrosis during the programme. We identified a total of 221 CF cases during this period, including, 4 CF cases were reported to be omitted by NBS CF. Disease incidence in Poland based on the programme results was estimated as 1/4394 and carrier frequency as 1/33. The frequency of the F508del was similar (62%) to population data previously reported. This strategy allowed us to identify 29 affected infants with rare genotypes. The frequency of some mutations (eg, 2184insA, K710X) was assessed in Poland for the first time. Thus, sequencing assay seems to be accurate method for screening programme using blood spots in the Polish population.European Journal of Human Genetics advance online publication, 15 August 2012; doi:10.1038/ejhg.2012.180.

The ACE gene D/I polymorphism as a modulator of severity of cystic fibrosis.
BMC Pulm Med. 2012 Aug 8;12:41., [PMID:22874010]
Abstract [show]
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a monogenic disease with complex expression because of the action of genetic and environmental factors. We investigated whether the ACE gene D/I polymorphism is associated with severity of CF. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed, from 2009 to 2011, at University of Campinas - UNICAMP. We analyzed 180 patients for the most frequent mutations in the CFTR gene, presence of the ACE gene D/I polymorphism and clinical characteristics of CF. RESULTS: There was an association of the D/D genotype with early initiation of clinical manifestations (OR: 1.519, CI: 1.074 to 2.146), bacterium Burkholderia cepacia colonization (OR: 3.309, CI: 1.476 to 6.256) and Bhalla score (BS) (p = 0.015). The association was observed in subgroups of patients which were defined by their CFTR mutation genotype (all patients; subgroup I: no mutation detected; subgroup II: one CFTR allele identified to mutation class I, II or III; subgroup III: both CFTR alleles identified to mutation class I, II and/or III). CONCLUSION: An association between the D allele in the ACE gene and the severity of CF was found in our study.

Prospective and parallel assessments of cystic fibrosis newborn screening protocols in the Czech Republic: IRT/DNA/IRT versus IRT/PAP and IRT/PAP/DNA.
Eur J Pediatr. 2012 Aug;171(8):1223-9. Epub 2012 May 12., [PMID:22581207]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life-threatening disease for which early diagnosis following newborn screening (NBS) improves the prognosis. We performed a prospective assessment of the immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT)/DNA/IRT protocol currently in use nationwide, versus the IRT/pancreatitis-associated protein (PAP) and IRT/PAP/DNA CF NBS protocols. Dried blood spots (DBS) from 106,522 Czech newborns were examined for IRT concentrations. In the IRT/DNA/IRT protocol, DNA-testing was performed for IRT >/= 65 ng/mL. Newborns with IRT >/= 200 ng/mL and no detected cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) mutations were recalled for a repeat IRT. In the same group of newborns, for both parallel protocols, PAP was measured in DBS with IRT >/= 50 ng/mL. In PAP-positive newborns (i.e., >/=1.8 if IRT 50-99.9 or >/=1.0 if IRT >/= 100, all in ng/mL), DNA-testing followed as part of the IRT/PAP/DNA protocol. Newborns with at least one CFTR mutation in the IRT/DNA/IRT and IRT/PAP/DNA protocols; a positive PAP in IRT/PAP; or a high repeat IRT in IRT/DNA/IRT were referred for sweat testing. CONCLUSION: the combined results of the utilized protocols led to the detection of 21 CF patients, 19 of which were identified using the IRT/DNA/IRT protocol, 16 using IRT/PAP, and 15 using IRT/PAP/DNA. Decreased cut-offs for PAP within the IRT/PAP protocol would lead to higher sensitivity but would increase false positives. Within the IRT/PAP/DNA protocol, decreased PAP cut-offs would result in high sensitivity, an acceptable number of false positives, and would reduce the number of DNA analyses. Thus, we concluded that the IRT/PAP/DNA protocol would represent the most suitable protocol in our conditions.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To review and evaluate cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators for the treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF). DATA SOURCES: Literature was accessed through MEDLINE (1977-January 2012), the Cochrane Library, and International Pharmaceutical Abstracts (1977-March 2012). Search terms included ivacaftor, VX-770, VX-809, ataluren, PTC 124, CFTR modulator, and cystic fibrosis. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION: All English-language articles identified from the data sources were evaluated for inclusion. Clinical trials and relevant review articles were evaluated for each CFTR modulator. DATA SYNTHESIS: CF is caused by a mutation in the gene that encodes for the CFTR protein; mutations can be separated into 5 different classes. Ivacaftor is a new CFTR potentiator that helps the CFTR channel open properly in patients with the CFTR mutation, G551D. Patients in one study had significant decreases in sweat chloride values and increases in pulmonary function tests. Ivacaftor was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be taken orally at a dose of 150 mg twice a day in G551D CF patients older than 6 years. Additional studies are investigating the use of ivacaftor in other gating mutations and in younger patients. VX-809 is a CFTR corrector that modulates the folding and trafficking of CFTR. VX-809 was originally studied alone in patients with F508del mutation but is now being used in combination with ivacaftor in Phase 2 studies. Ataluren allows the read through of premature stop codons, and studies in patients with CF with nonsense mutations show an increase in chloride transportation. Ataluren requires 3 times a day dosing and is currently in a Phase 3 placebo-controlled study. CONCLUSIONS: Three new agents, ivacaftor, VX-809, and ataluren, target the basic defects in CFTR production. Ivacaftor was recently FDA approved, while the other 2 agents are still in clinical trials. Patients with CF will benefit from personalized medicine based on their specific genotype.

140 Ataluren not only has therapeutic applicability in patients with CF and class I CFTR mutations, but may be effective in other diseases, such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy.27 Ataluren was originally studied in a mouse model, where it restored chloride to 24-29% of normal levels in mice with CF and a G542X mutation.28 Following positive animal studies, ataluren was administered to 62 healthy adults in increasing doses, from 3 mg/kg to 200 mg/kg per dose.29 The doses were well tolerated until more than 150 mg/kg was administered; these doses caused headache, dizziness, and gastrointestinal adverse effects.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Newborn screening (NBS) for Cystic Fibrosis (CF) has been introduced in many countries, but there is no ideal protocol suitable for all countries. This retrospective study was conducted to evaluate whether the planned two step CF NBS with immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) and 7 CFTR mutations would have detected all clinically diagnosed children with CF in Switzerland. METHODS: IRT was measured using AutoDELFIA Neonatal IRT-Kit in stored NBS cards. RESULTS: Between 2006 and 2009, 66 children with CF were reported, 4 of which were excluded for various reasons (born in another country, NBS at 6 months, no informed consent). 98% (61/62) had significantly higher IRT compared to matched control group. There was one false negative IRT result in an asymptomatic child with atypical CF (normal pancreatic function and sweat test). CONCLUSIONS: All children but one with atypical CF would have been detected with the planned two step protocol.

Abstract [show]
When new technical possibilities arise in health care, often attunement is needed between different actors from the perspectives of research, health care providers, patients, ethics and policy. For cystic fibrosis (CF) such a process of attunement in the Netherlands started in a committee of the Health Council on neonatal screening in 2005. In the balancing of pros and cons according to Wilson and Jungner criteria, the advantages for the CF patient were considered clear, even though CF remains a severe health problem with treatment. Nevertheless, screening was not started then, mainly since the specificity of the tests available at that time was considered too low. Many healthy infants would have been referred for sweat testing and much uncertainty would arise in their parents. Also the limited sensitivity for immigrants and the detection of less severe phenotypes and carriers were considered problematic. The Health Council recommended a pilot screening project which was subsequently performed in some provinces, leading to a 4-step protocol: IRT, PAP, screening for a CFTR mutation panel, and sequencing of the CFTR gene. This would lead to the identification of 23 cases of classical CF, two infants with less severe forms and 12 carriers per year in the Netherlands. Thus many CF patients can be diagnosed early, while limiting the number of referrals, the number of infants with less severe forms diagnosed and the number of carriers identified. Technical solutions were found to limit the ethical problems. A nationwide program using this four step protocol started by 1 May 2011.

Abstract [show]
Summary There is a biological plausibility on the link between cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA). The aim of the systematic review was to investigate this link by determining the frequency of CFTR mutations in ABPA. We searched the PubMed and EmBase databases for studies reporting CFTR mutations in ABPA. We pooled the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) from individual studies using both fixed and random effects model. Statistical heterogeneity was evaluated using the I(2) test and the Cochran-Q statistic. Publication bias was assessed using both graphical and statistical methods. Our search yielded four studies (79 ABPA, 268 controls). The odds of encountering CFTR mutation was higher in ABPA compared with the control group (OR 10.39; 95% CI, 4.35-24.79) or the asthma population (OR 5.53; 95% CI 1.62-18.82). There was no evidence of statistical heterogeneity or publication bias. There is a possible pathogenetic link between CFTR mutations and ABPA. However, because of the small numbers of patients, further studies are required to confirm this finding. Future studies should adopt a uniform methodology and should screen for the entire genetic sequence of the CFTR gene.

Abstract [show]
The F508del mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (Cftr) gene is believed to be an independent risk factor for cystic fibrosis-related bone disease. In this study, we evaluated the bone mineral density as well as the histomorphometric parameters of bone formation and bone mass in both F508del-Cftr homozygous mice (F508del Cftr(tm1Eur)) and Cftr(+/+) littermate controls at 6 (prepubertal), 10 (pubertal), and 14 (young adult) weeks of age in both sexes. The bone architecture of F508del Cftr(tm1Eur) and wild-type (WT) littermate mice was evaluated by bone densitometry, microcomputed tomography, and analysis of the dynamic parameters of bone formation. Serum levels of both insulin-like growth factor 1 and osteocalcin also were determined. Reduced bone mineral density, lower femoral bone mass, and altered trabecular bone architecture were observed in F508del Cftr(tm1Eur) mice compared with controls at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age. A decrease in the bone formation rate in F508del Cftr(tm1Eur) mice was shown compared with control mice, independently of age and sex. In addition, we found lower insulin-like growth factor 1 levels in F508del Cftr(tm1Eur) mice compared with age-matched controls, whereas osteocalcin levels were normal. Severe osteopenia and altered bone architecture were found in young and mature adult F508del Cftr(tm1Eur) mice. Our findings show that the F508del mutation in CFTR impacts trabecular bone mass by reducing bone formation.

Abstract [show]
We report the case of a patient with an apparent homozygosity for the D1152H mutation located in exon 18 of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. The parents had no personal history of cystic fibrosis (CF) and referred to our laboratory after the diagnosis of fetal bowel hyperechogenicity. The proband presented with meconium ileus and normal sweat chloride test. Sequencing of the CFTR exon 18 together with quantitative genomic assays, such as real-time PCR and the multiplex ligation probe amplification (MLPA) techniques, were performed and revealed that the father was heterozygous for the D1152H mutation and the mother carried a large deletion of the CFTR gene encompassing the genomic sequence including the same mutation. The child inherited D1152H from his father and the large deletion of the CFTR gene from his mother. We suggest that D1152H likely acts as a mild mutation with a dominant effect on the severe deletion of exon 18, considering that after 3 years of clinical examinations the child shows no classical signs and symptoms of CF. Not testing for large deletions in subjects with apparent homozygosity for a mutated CFTR allele could lead to the misidentification of CFTR mutation carrier status.

Rapid detection of the ACMG/ACOG-recommended 23 CFTR disease-causing mutations using ion torrent semiconductor sequencing.
J Biomol Tech. 2012 Apr;23(1):24-30., [PMID:22468138]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most frequently diagnosed autosomal-recessive diseases in the Caucasian population. For general-population CF carrier screening, the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG)/American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) have recommended a core panel of 23 mutations that will identify 49-98% of carriers, depending on ethnic background. Using a genotyping technology that can rapidly identify disease-causing mutations is important for high-throughput general-population carrier screening, confirming clinical diagnosis, determining treatment options, and prenatal diagnosis. Here, we describe a proof-of-concept study to determine whether the Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine (PGM) sequencer platform can reliably identify all ACMG/ACOG 23 CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations. A WT CF specimen along with mutant DNA specimens representing all 23 CFTR mutations were sequenced bidirectionally on the Ion Torrent 314 chip to determine the accuracy of the PGM for CFTR variant detection. We were able to reliably identify all of the targeted mutations except for 2184delA, which lies in a difficult, 7-mer homopolymer tract. Based on our study, we believe PGM sequencing may be a suitable technology for identifying CFTR mutations in the future. However, as a result of the elevated rate of base-calling errors within homopolymer stretches, mutations within such regions currently need to be evaluated carefully using an alternative method.

Novel strategies in newborn screening for cystic fibrosis: a prospective controlled study.
Thorax. 2012 Apr;67(4):289-95. Epub 2012 Jan 23., [PMID:22271776]
Abstract [show]
CONTEXT: Newborn screening for cystic fibrosis (CF) is included in many routine programmes but current strategies have considerable drawbacks, such as false-positive tests, equivocal diagnosis and detection of carriers. OBJECTIVE: To assess the test performance of two newborn screening strategies for CF. DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: In 2008 and 2009, CF screening was added to the routine screening programme as a prospective study in part of The Netherlands. INTERVENTIONS: Two strategies were performed in all newborns. In the first strategy, concentrations of immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) and pancreatitis-associated protein (PAP) were measured. In the second method, samples with IRT >/=60 mug/litre were analysed for 36 CFTR mutations, followed by sequencing when a single mutation was detected. Tests were positive only with two identified CFTR mutations. MAIN OUTCOME: Sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive value (PPV) of both screening strategies. RESULTS: 145,499 infants were screened. The IRT/PAP approach showed a sensitivity of 95.0%, a specificity of 99.897% and a PPV of 12.3%. Test properties for the IRT/DNA/sequencing strategy were respectively 100%, 100% and 64.9%. Combining both strategies (IRT/PAP/DNA/sequencing) led to a sensitivity of 95.0%, a specificity of 100% and a PPV of 87.5%. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, all strategies performed well. Although there was no statistically significant difference in test performance, the IRT/DNA/sequencing strategy detected one infant that was missed by IRT/PAP (/DNA/sequencing). IRT/PAP may be the optimal choice if the use of DNA technology must be avoided. If identification of carriers and equivocal diagnosis is considered an important disadvantage, IRT/PAP/DNA/sequencing may be the best choice.

CFTR, SPINK1, CTRC and PRSS1 variants in chronic pancreatitis: is the role of mutated CFTR overestimated?
Gut. 2012 Mar 17., [PMID:22427236]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: In chronic pancreatitis (CP), alterations in several genes have so far been described, but only small cohorts have been extensively investigated for all predisposing genes. DESIGN: 660 patients with idiopathic or hereditary CP and up to 1758 controls were enrolled. PRSS1, SPINK1 and CTRC were analysed by DNA sequencing, and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) by melting curve analysis. RESULTS: Frequencies of CFTR variants p.R75Q, p.I148T, 5T-allele and p.E528E were comparable in patients and controls. We identified 103 CFTR variants, which represents a 2.7-fold risk increase (p<0.0001). Severe cystic fibrosis (CF)-causing variants increased the risk of developing CP 2.9-fold, and mild CF-causing variants 4.5-fold (p<0.0001 for both). Combined CF-causing variants increased CP risk 3.4-fold (p<0.0001), while non-CF-causing variants displayed a 1.5-fold over-representation in patients (p=0.14). CFTR compound heterozygous status with variant classes CF-causing severe and mild represented an OR of 16.1 (p<0.0001). Notably, only 9/660 (1.4%) patients were compound heterozygotes in this category. Trans-heterozygosity increased CP risk, with an OR of 38.7, with 43/660 (6.5%) patients and 3/1667 (0.2%) controls being trans-heterozygous (p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Accumulation of CFTR variants in CP is less pronounced than reported previously, with ORs between 2.7 and 4.5. Only CF-causing variants reached statistical significance. Compound and trans-heterozygosity is an overt risk factor for the development of CP, but the number of CFTR compound heterozygotes in particular is rather low. In summary, the study demonstrates the complexity of genetic interactions in CP and a minor influence of CFTR alterations in CP development.

Role of Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) in patients with chronic sinopulmonary disease.
Chest. 2012 Mar 15., [PMID:22423042]
Abstract [show]
ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION:Previous studies report a high frequency of mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene in patients with idiopathic bronchiectasis. However, most studies have based their findings on pre-selected patient groups or have performed limited testing for CFTR dysfunction. The objective of our study was to evaluate the prevalence of CFTR gene mutations and/or CFTR-related ion channel abnormalities among subjects with idiopathic chronic sinopulmonary disease and the prevalence of CF or a CFTR-related disorder in this population. METHODS:We evaluated 72 prospectively enrolled patients from 1995-2005 at the Hospital for Sick Children and St. Michael's Hospital with idiopathic chronic sinopulmonary disease for evidence of CFTR-mediated abnormalities. We performed CFTR genotyping and assessed CFTR function using sweat testing and nasal potential difference testing. The results were compared with data from healthy controls, CF heterozygotes and CF patients. RESULTS:The CFTR functional tests in idiopathic sinopulmonary patients showed a continuous spectrum, ranging from normal to values typically seen in individuals with CF. Forty eight patients (66%) demonstrated CFTR mutations and/or abnormalities of CFTR function. Twenty two (31%) fulfilled criteria for a CF diagnosis and 26 (36%) for a CFTR-related disorder with a strong female preponderance. Functional tests, more than genotyping, were instrumental in establishing a CF diagnosis. Clinical features failed to distinguish CF subjects from those with CFTR-related or idiopathic disease. CONCLUSION:The high prevalence of CF and CFTR dysfunction among patients with idiopathic chronic sinopulmonary disease underscores the need for extensive diagnostic evaluation for CF.

Abstract [show]
Most newborn screening (NBS) laboratories use second-tier molecular tests for cystic fibrosis (CF) using dried blood spots (DBS). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's NBS Quality Assurance Program offers proficiency testing (PT) in DBS for CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutation detection. Extensive molecular characterization on 76 CF patients, family members or screen positive newborns was performed for quality assurance. The coding, regulatory regions and portions of all introns were sequenced and large insertions/deletions were characterized as well as two intronic di-nucleotide microsatellites. For CF patient samples, at least two mutations were identified/verified and four specimens contained three likely CF-associated mutations. Thirty-four sequence variations in 152 chromosomes were identified, five of which were not previously reported. Twenty-seven of these variants were used to predict haplotypes from the major haplotype block defined by HapMap data that spans the promoter through intron 19. Chromosomes containing the F508del (p.Phe508del), G542X (p.Gly542X) and N1303K (p.Asn1303Lys) mutations shared a common haplotype subgroup, consistent with a common ancient European founder. Understanding the haplotype background of CF-associated mutations in the U.S. population provides a framework for future phenotype/genotype studies and will assist in determining a likely cis/trans phase of the mutations without need for parent studies.

Implications for health and disease in the genetic signature of the Ashkenazi Jewish population.
Genome Biol. 2012 Jan 25;13(1):R2., [PMID:22277159]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Relatively small, reproductively isolated populations with reduced genetic diversity may have advantages for genomewide association mapping in disease genetics. The Ashkenazi Jewish population represents a unique population for study based on its recent (< 1,000 year) history of a limited number of founders, population bottlenecks and tradition of marriage within the community. We genotyped more than 1,300 Ashkenazi Jewish healthy volunteers from the Hebrew University Genetic Resource with the Illumina HumanOmni1-Quad platform. Comparison of the genotyping data with that of neighboring European and Asian populations enabled the Ashkenazi Jewish-specific component of the variance to be characterized with respect to disease-relevant alleles and pathways. RESULTS: Using clustering, principal components, and pairwise genetic distance as converging approaches, we identified an Ashkenazi Jewish-specific genetic signature that differentiated these subjects from both European and Middle Eastern samples. Most notably, gene ontology analysis of the Ashkenazi Jewish genetic signature revealed an enrichment of genes functioning in transepithelial chloride transport, such as CFTR, and in equilibrioception, potentially shedding light on cystic fibrosis, Usher syndrome and other diseases over-represented in the Ashkenazi Jewish population. Results also impact risk profiles for autoimmune and metabolic disorders in this population. Finally, residual intra-Ashkenazi population structure was minimal, primarily determined by class 1 MHC alleles, and not related to host country of origin. CONCLUSIONS: The Ashkenazi Jewish population is of potential utility in disease-mapping studies due to its relative homogeneity and distinct genomic signature. Results suggest that Ashkenazi-associated disease genes may be components of population-specific genomic differences in key functional pathways.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To compare three cystic fibrosis (CF) newborn screening strategies used in Victoria since 1989. DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: Retrospective review of newborn screening and clinical records for people with CF born in Victoria between 1989 and 2008 to compare screening strategies: repeat immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) testing (IRT/IRT, 1989-1990), IRT and p.F508del mutation analysis (IRT/p.F508del, 1991-2006) and IRT with analysis of 12 CFTR mutations (IRT/12 mutations, 2007-2008). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Total number of infants screened, people identified with CF (by screening or clinical diagnosis), number of CF-affected terminations of pregnancy, and number of carriers detected. RESULTS: There were 420 people born with CF (live-birth prevalence, 1/3139; 95% CI, 1/2853-1/3462) and 78 CF-affected pregnancy terminations (overall prevalence, 1/2647; 95% CI, 1/2425-1/2896). Of the babies born with CF, 283 (67.4%) were detected by newborn screening alone, 61 (14.5%) had meconium ileus, 33 (7.9%) had a family history of CF, nine (2.1%) were diagnosed antenatally, and 34 (8.1%) were missed by screening (17 missed because IRT level was < 99th percentile, two with repeat IRT level not elevated, 14 without a screened CFTR mutation, and one with missing data). The sensitivities of the protocols were 86.6% for IRT/IRT, 89.9% for IRT/p.F508del, and 95.8% for IRT/12 mutations. Including 12 mutations in the analysis detected one patient who would otherwise have been missed and, had this protocol been implemented from 1989, it would have detected four others. CONCLUSION: Most babies with CF without meconium ileus, a family history or antenatal diagnosis are detected by newborn screening. Despite improved sensitivity with the 12-mutation analysis, most infants detected would have been diagnosed using the IRT/p.F508del protocol.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-related disorders (CFTR-RDs) may present with pancreatic sufficiency, normal sweat test results, and better outcome. The detection rate of mutations is lower in CFTR-RD than in classic CF: mutations may be located in genes encoding proteins that interact with CFTR or support channel activity. We tested the whole CFTR coding regions in 99 CFTR-RD patients, looking for gene mutations in solute carrier (SLC) 26A and in epithelial Na channel (ENaC) in 33 patients who had unidentified mutations. CFTR analysis revealed 28 mutations, some of which are rare. Of these mutations, RT-PCR demonstrated that the novel 1525-1delG impairs exon 10 splicing; by using minigene analysis, we excluded the splicing effect of three other novel intronic variants. Analysis of SLC26A genes revealed several variants, some of which are novel, that did not affect mRNA expression. Other mutations occurred in the ENaC genes encoding the ENaC subunits, but their frequency did not significantly differ between patients and controls. Our data, although obtained on a preliminary cohort of CFTR-RD patients, exclude a role of mutations in SLC26A and in SCNN genes in the pathogenesis of such disease; we confirm that CFTR analysis has a relevant role in CFTR-RD patients; and it appears mandatory to use CFTR scanning techniques and approaches to reveal the effect of novel mutations.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is caused by approximately 1,900 mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene encoding for a cAMP-regulated chloride (Cl(-)) channel expressed in several epithelia. Clinical features are dominated by respiratory symptoms, but there is variable organ involvement thus causing diagnostic dilemmas, especially for non-classic cases. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: To further establish measurement of CFTR function as a sensitive and robust biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of CF, we herein assessed cholinergic and cAMP-CFTR-mediated Cl(-) secretion in 524 freshly excised rectal biopsies from 118 individuals, including patients with confirmed CF clinical diagnosis (n = 51), individuals with clinical CF suspicion (n = 49) and age-matched non-CF controls (n = 18). Conclusive measurements were obtained for 96% of cases. Patients with "Classic CF", presenting earlier onset of symptoms, pancreatic insufficiency, severe lung disease and low Shwachman-Kulczycki scores were found to lack CFTR-mediated Cl(-) secretion (<5%). Individuals with milder CF disease presented residual CFTR-mediated Cl(-) secretion (10-57%) and non-CF controls show CFTR-mediated Cl(-) secretion >/=30-35% and data evidenced good correlations with various clinical parameters. Finally, comparison of these values with those in "CF suspicion" individuals allowed to confirm CF in 16/49 individuals (33%) and exclude it in 28/49 (57%). Statistical discriminant analyses showed that colonic measurements of CFTR-mediated Cl(-) secretion are the best discriminator among Classic/Non-Classic CF and non-CF groups. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Determination of CFTR-mediated Cl(-) secretion in rectal biopsies is demonstrated here to be a sensitive, reproducible and robust predictive biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of CF. The method also has very high potential for (pre-)clinical trials of CFTR-modulator therapies.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: The aim of our study is to evaluate the prevalence of cystic fibrosis (CF) in fetuses referred for genetic testing because of ultrasonographic sign (nonvisualized fetal gallbladder--NVFGB). METHOD: We reviewed the results of CFTR gene analysis over the period 2002 to 2009 in all consecutive cases referred because of NVFGB in Western France. We correlated these data with the presence of a more classical ultrasonographic finding (fetal echogenic bowel - FEB). RESULTS: Cystic fibrosis was diagnosed in 5 of the 37 fetuses with NVFGB (13.5%, 95% confidence interval (CI): [2.5%; 24.5%]) and in only 9 of the 229 other cases referred because of FEB (3.9%, 95% CI: [3.2%; 14.7%]). In our series, all CF-affected fetuses with NVFGB also had FEB. The risk of CF was 11.6-fold higher in fetuses with both indications (NVFGB + FEB) than in fetuses with isolated FEB (45.5% vs 3.9%, RR = 11.6, 95% CI: [4.7%; 28.8%], p = 0.0001). We also estimated that the residual risk of CF was less than 1 in 68 (1.5%) when a single mutation was identified in the fetus by our molecular protocol. CONCLUSION: Ultrasonographic evidence of NVFGB is an additional risk factor for CF in cases with FEB.

Abstract [show]
INTRODUCTION: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common deleterious single-gene recessive disorder in non-Hispanic Caucasians. Mutations within the CF transmembrane receptor (CFTR) gene produce a variable phenotype, including pulmonary disease, pancreatic insufficiency, meconium ileus and infertility. Screening of antenatal/preconception patients to identify CFTR mutation carriers has been shown to reduce the incidence of CF-affected babies at birth. The application of preconception screening to assisted reproductive technology (ART) patients enables carrier couples a choice between prenatal screening and preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). AIM: To screen patients entering an infertility clinic, for 30 common CFTR mutations, and to detect carrier patients prior to initiating assisted reproductive treatment. METHOD: DNA from 5600 infertility patients was screened using a PCR/OLA kit for 30 CFTR mutations. All identified carriers and carrier couples were offered genetic counselling. Prenatal testing and PGD for CFTR mutations were offered to carrier couples where appropriate. RESULTS: A total of 5600 patients were screened for 30 CFTR mutations with 261 carriers being identified and at a significantly increased carrier rate of one in 21.5 (4.66% +/- 0.55%). R117H/c.350G>A was significantly increased in this infertile population and accounted for 13.8% of all mutations identified. Twelve carrier couples were identified, and nine carrier couples had at least one cycle of PGD for CFTR mutations. CONCLUSION: The carrier rate of CFTR mutations is elevated in patients presenting for infertility treatment, and preconception screening should be encouraged in all patients entering ART clinics.

Sebro R, Levy H, Schneck K, Dimmock D, Raby BA, Cannon CL, Broeckel U, Risch NJ. Cystic fibrosis mutations for p.F508del compound heterozygotes predict sweat chloride levels and pancreatic sufficiency. Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a monogenetic disease with a complex phenotype. Over 1500 mutations in the CFTR gene have been identified; however, the p.F508del mutation is most common. There has been limited correlation between the CFTR mutation genotype and the disease phenotypes. We evaluated the non-p.F508del mutation of 108 p.F508del compound heterozygotes using the biological classification method, Grantham and Sorting Intolerant from Tolerant (SIFT) scores to assess whether these scoring systems correlated with sweat chloride levels, pancreatic sufficiency, predicted FEV(1) , and risk of infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa in the last year. Mutations predicted to be 'mild' by the biological classification method are associated with more normal sweat chloride levels (p < 0.001), pancreatic sufficiency (p < 0.001) and decreased risk of infection with Pseudomonas in the last year (p = 0.014). Lower Grantham scores are associated with more normal sweat chloride levels (p < 0.001), and pancreatic sufficiency (p = 0.014). Higher SIFT scores are associated with more normal sweat chloride levels (p < 0.001) and pancreatic sufficiency (p = 0.011). There was no association between pulmonary function measured by predicted FEV(1) and the biological classification (p = 0.98), Grantham (p = 0.28) or SIFT scores (p = 0.62), which suggests the pulmonary disease related to CF may involve other modifier genes and environmental factors.

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: To evaluate five common cystic fibrosis trans-membrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations (DeltaF508, G542X, R117H, W1282X and N1303K) in the Iranian infertile men with noncongenital absence of vas deferens (CAVD) obstructive azoospermia. METHODS: The common CFTR gene mutations were tested on blood samples from 53 infertile men with non-CAVD obstructive azoospermia and 50 normal men as control individuals. Genomic DNA is extracted from the whole blood and the common CFTR mutations have been detected by the amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) techniques. RESULTS: The common CFTR mutations were found positive in 5/53)9.43%(for DeltaF508 and 4/53)7.55%(for G542X mutation of all patients tested. Also, no CFTR mutations were detected in the normal men. CONCLUSION: The common CFTR mutations were detected in 9/53(17%) infertile men with non-CAVD obstructive azoospermia. Pre-treatment CFTR mutation analysis remains critical to distinguish cystic fibrosis (CF) genotypes for men with non CAVD obstructive azoospermia.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene mutations. We ascertained five patients with a novel complex CFTR allele, with two mutations, H939R and H949L, inherited in cis in the same exon of CFTR gene, and one different mutation per patient inherited in trans in a wide population of 289 Caucasian CF subjects from South Italy. The genotype-phenotype relationship in patients bearing this complex allele was investigated. The two associated mutations were related to classical severe CF phenotypes.

Abstract [show]
INTRODUCTION: Functional alterations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) increase the viscoelasticity of pulmonary secretions of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and require the use of therapeutic aerosols. The biochemical properties of exocrine secretions are influenced by the expression of the FUT2 gene which determine the secretor and non-secretor phenotypes of the ABH glycoconjugates. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of secretor and non-secretor phenotypes by means of photoacoustic analysis, both the typical interaction time (t(0)) and the solubilization interval (Deltat) of the sputum of secretor and non-secretor CF patients nebulized by hypertonic saline solutions at different concentrations. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Sputum samples were obtained by spontaneous expectoration from 6 secretor and 4 non-secretor patients with CF. Each sample was nebulized with 3%, 6%, and 7% hypertonic saline solutions in a photoacoustic cell. The values of t(0) and Deltat were determined using the Origin 7.5((R)) computer program (Microcal Software Inc.). The t-test was employed using the GraphPad Instat 3.0((R)) computer program to calculate the mean and standard deviation for each parameter. RESULTS: For all hypertonic saline solutions tested, the mean values of t(0) and Deltat do not show statistically significant differences between secretor and non-secretor patients. CONCLUSIONS: The secretor and non-secretor phenotypes do not influence the in vitro solubilization of the sputum nebulized by hypertonic saline solutions at different concentrations when analysed by photoacoustic technique.

Detecting Common CFTR Mutations by Reverse Dot Blot Hybridization Method in Cystic Fibrosis First Report from Northern Iran.
Iran J Pediatr. 2011 Mar;21(1):51-7., [PMID:23056764]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: Cystic fibrosis and its distribution vary widely in different countries and/or ethnic groups. Common cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations were reported from Iran, but the northern population was not or underrepresented in those studies. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of common CFTR mutations in children from northern Iran. METHODS: Thirty unrelated Iranian cystic fibrosis patients aged less than 11 years and living in Mazandaran province (in Iran) were screened for 5 common CFTR gene mutations. deltaF508, N1303K, G542X, R347H and W1282X using Reverse Dot Blot method. FINDINGS: Only one mutation, DeltaF508, was found in 7 patients accounting for 21.7% (13/60) of alleles. CONCLUSION: These findings can be used for planning future screening and appropriate genetic counseling programs in Iranian CF families.

J Med Screen. 2011;18(4):169-72. Epub 2011 Dec 7., [PMID:22156145]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To assess the frequency of the D1152H mutation in the CFTR gene in normal individuals, in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and in the setting of prenatal diagnosis. SETTING: A database analysis of sequential screening results seen at the Sheba Medical Center, Israel, between 2001 and 2010. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the frequency of D1152H in a large cohort of healthy individuals who were screened as part of a routine prenatal care programme, in individuals referred due to CF-related symptoms and in the setting of prenatal diagnosis. RESULTS: We found one asymptomatic homozygous female and 195 D1152H carriers among 49,940 healthy individuals screened, establishing a carrier rate of 1:255 for this mutation. We detected D1152H in nine of 103 individuals referred due to CF-related symptoms. Four suffered from respiratory symptoms and five from congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD). During this period D1152H was detected in three pregnancies, two of which were aborted. CONCLUSION: The increased frequency of D1152H in individuals referred due to CF-related symptoms compared with healthy individuals included in the CF carrier screening programme (P < 0.001) clearly indicates that it is a disease-causing mutation.

The K+ channel opener 1-EBIO potentiates residual function of mutant CFTR in rectal biopsies from cystic fibrosis patients.
PLoS One. 2011;6(8):e24445. Epub 2011 Aug 31., [PMID:21909392]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The identification of strategies to improve mutant CFTR function remains a key priority in the development of new treatments for cystic fibrosis (CF). Previous studies demonstrated that the K(+) channel opener 1-ethyl-2-benzimidazolone (1-EBIO) potentiates CFTR-mediated Cl(-) secretion in cultured cells and mouse colon. However, the effects of 1-EBIO on wild-type and mutant CFTR function in native human colonic tissues remain unknown. METHODS: We studied the effects of 1-EBIO on CFTR-mediated Cl(-) secretion in rectal biopsies from 47 CF patients carrying a wide spectrum of CFTR mutations and 57 age-matched controls. Rectal tissues were mounted in perfused micro-Ussing chambers and the effects of 1-EBIO were compared in control tissues, CF tissues expressing residual CFTR function and CF tissues with no detectable Cl(-) secretion. RESULTS: Studies in control tissues demonstrate that 1-EBIO activated CFTR-mediated Cl(-) secretion in the absence of cAMP-mediated stimulation and potentiated cAMP-induced Cl(-) secretion by 39.2+/-6.7% (P<0.001) via activation of basolateral Ca(2)(+)-activated and clotrimazole-sensitive KCNN4 K(+) channels. In CF specimens, 1-EBIO potentiated cAMP-induced Cl(-) secretion in tissues with residual CFTR function by 44.4+/-11.5% (P<0.001), but had no effect on tissues lacking CFTR-mediated Cl(-) conductance. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that 1-EBIO potentiates Cl(-)secretion in native CF tissues expressing CFTR mutants with residual Cl(-) channel function by activation of basolateral KCNN4 K(+) channels that increase the driving force for luminal Cl(-) exit. This mechanism may augment effects of CFTR correctors and potentiators that increase the number and/or activity of mutant CFTR channels at the cell surface and suggests KCNN4 as a therapeutic target for CF.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis is a common autosomal recessive disorder usually found in population of white Caucasian descent. Now it is well documented the presence of CF disease in India with the advancement of laboratory testing. As once it was thought non existence of this disease in our population. Most of the phenotype of CF disease was in accordance of western population. Genetic analysis of CFTR gene in Indian CF patients revealed that most common mutation was delta F508 mutation. However, it was less than Caucasian population. CFTR mutations are also a causative factor in the pathogenesis of male infertility due to obstructive azoospermia. There are two most common mutation viz. IVS8-T5 and delta F508 which are responsible for congenital absence of vas deferens in male infertility patients. Elevated levels of sweat chloride at two occasions along with the presence of two mutations in CFTR gene was gold standard method for diagnosis of CF disease. It is noteworthy here that due to magnitude of Indian population, the total CF disease load would be more than many European countries. Clinical data demonstrate the prevalence of both classical and genetic form of CF in India.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study is to evaluate the role of Denaturing High Performance Liquid Chromatography (DHPLC) in the second level screening of the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene. METHODS: A 9-month prospective study, between June 2008 and March 2009 at Artemisia Fetal Medical Centre, included 3829 samples of amniotic fluid collected from women undergoing mid-trimester amniocentesis.The genetic diagnosis of CF was based on research of the main mutations of the CFTR gene on fetal DNA extracted from the amniocytes, (first level screening) using different commercial diagnostic systems. A second level screening using DHPLC, on the amniotic fluid and on a blood sample from the couple, was offered in case of fetuses heterozygous at first level screening. RESULTS: Of 3829 fetuses, 134 were found to be positive, 129 heterozygous and 5 affected. Of the 129 couples, following appropriate genetic counselling, 53 requested a second level screening. Through the use of DHPLC, 44 couples were found to be negative, and in nine couples, nine rare mutations were identified. CONCLUSIONS: The first level screening can be useful to evidence up to 75% of the CF mutations. The second level screening can identify a further 10% of mutant alleles. DHPLC was found to be a reliable and specific method for the rapid identification of the rare CFTR mutations which were not revealed in initial first level screening.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: To assess gene therapy treatment for cystic fibrosis (CF) in clinical trials it is essential to develop robust assays that can accurately detect transgene expression in human airway epithelial cells. Our aim was to develop a reproducible immunocytochemical assay for human CFTR protein which can measure both endogenous CFTR levels and augmented CFTR expression after gene delivery. METHODS: We characterised an antibody (G449) which satisfied the criteria for use in clinical trials. We optimised our immunocytochemistry method and identified G449 dilutions at which endogenous CFTR levels were negligible in CF samples, thus enhancing detection of transgenic CFTR protein. After developing a transfection technique for brushed human nasal epithelial cells, we transfected non-CF and CF cells with a clinically relevant CpG-free plasmid encoding human CFTR. RESULTS: The optimised immunocytochemistry method gave improved discrimination between CF and non-CF samples. Transfection of a CFTR expression vector into primary nasal epithelial cells resulted in detectable RNA and protein expression. CFTR protein was present in 0.05-10% of non-CF cells and 0.02-0.8% of CF cells. CONCLUSION: We have developed a sensitive, clinically relevant immunocytochemical assay for CFTR protein and have used it to detect transgene-expressed CFTR in transfected human primary airway epithelial cells.

Long-term gas exchange characteristics as markers of deterioration in patients with cystic fibrosis.
Respir Res. 2009 Nov 12;10:106., [PMID:19909502]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND AND AIM: In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) the architecture of the developing lungs and the ventilation of lung units are progressively affected, influencing intrapulmonary gas mixing and gas exchange. We examined the long-term course of blood gas measurements in relation to characteristics of lung function and the influence of different CFTR genotype upon this process. METHODS: Serial annual measurements of PaO2 and PaCO2 assessed in relation to lung function, providing functional residual capacity (FRCpleth), lung clearance index (LCI), trapped gas (VTG), airway resistance (sReff), and forced expiratory indices (FEV1, FEF50), were collected in 178 children (88 males; 90 females) with CF, over an age range of 5 to 18 years. Linear mixed model analysis and binary logistic regression analysis were used to define predominant lung function parameters influencing oxygenation and carbon dioxide elimination. RESULTS: PaO2 decreased linearly from age 5 to 18 years, and was mainly associated with FRCpleth, (p < 0.0001), FEV1 (p < 0.001), FEF50 (p < 0.002), and LCI (p < 0.002), indicating that oxygenation was associated with the degree of pulmonary hyperinflation, ventilation inhomogeneities and impeded airway function. PaCO2 showed a transitory phase of low PaCO2 values, mainly during the age range of 5 to 12 years. Both PaO2 and PaCO2 presented with different progression slopes within specific CFTR genotypes. CONCLUSION: In the long-term evaluation of gas exchange characteristics, an association with different lung function patterns was found and was closely related to specific genotypes. Early examination of blood gases may reveal hypocarbia, presumably reflecting compensatory mechanisms to improve oxygenation.

Abstract [show]
Mutation epidemiology in each ethnic group is important for cystic fibrosis diagnosis and genetic counselling. To date, little has been reported on the prevalence of cystic fibrosis in the Ecuadorian population where the mutation distribution appears to differ from that of Europe. We present a series of four Ecuadorian patients homozygous for the H609R mutation in the CFTR gene. This is the first report of detection of this mutation in the Ecuadorian population. Taking advantage of the homozygous status of the patients, an evaluation of the most important clinical parameters is presented. From the diagnostic point of view, the information provided by our study is of relevance in designing an appropriate strategy for genetic testing of patients in Ecuador and in European countries where immigration from Ecuador is common.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: The sweat test remains the gold standard for the diagnosis of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) even despite the availability of molecular analysis of Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator gene (CFTR). We investigated the relationship between CFTR mutation analysis and sweat chloride concentration in a cohort of subjects with borderline sweat test values, in order to identify misdiagnosis of CF. DESIGN AND METHODS: In the period between March 2006 and February 2008 we performed 773 sweat tests in individuals referred for suspect CF. Ninety-one subjects had chloride values in the border-line range. Clinicians required CFTR gene complete scanning on 66 of them. RESULTS: The mean value of sweat chloride in the DNA negative subjects was lower than in those with at least one CFTR mutation. Our data indicate that 39 mEq/l is the best sensitivity trade off for the sweat test with respect to genotype. CONCLUSIONS: To optimise diagnostic accuracy of reference intervals, it may be useful to modify from 30 to 39 mEq/l the threshold for sweat chloride electrolytes.

So far, more than 1500 mutations have been reported in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Mutational spectrum varies in accordance with geographic and/or ethnic origin. In this study, we have analyzed seven common CF mutations (p.F508del, p.G542X, p.R1162X, p.N1303K, p.R334W, p.R553X and c.3120+1G>A) taking into account the ethnic origin of the Cuban population which is mainly influenced by Spanish and sub-Sahara African contribution. All but p.N1303K have been detected in our patients, the p.F508del being the most prevalent (37.9%). Overall, six mutations showed frequencies above 1% accounting for 55.5% of the Cuban CF alleles.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a progressive cholestatic disease commonly associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and characterized by fibrosing inflammatory destruction of bile ducts. The histological features in the liver of PSC patients are similar to those observed in cystic fibrosis (CF). Our aim was to study whether variants in the CFTR gene are associated with the occurrence and/or evolution of PSC. METHODS: PSC patients (n=140) were genotyped for F508del, the TGmTn variants, and four additional polymorphic loci (1001+11 C>T, M470V, T854T and Q1463Q), and compared to 136 matched healthy controls. RESULTS: The 1540G-allele, encoding V470, was less frequent in PSC (52%) than in controls (64%, p=0.003), and was associated with protection against PSC in individuals without IBD (OR 0.25, 95% CI 0.12-0.52, p=0.0002). Also TG11-T7 was less frequent in PSC (53%) than in controls (61%, p=0.04), this haplotype was associated with reduced risk for PSC (OR 0.34, 95% CI 0.17-0.70, p=0.003) in individuals without IBD. CONCLUSIONS: In this cohort of PSC patients, several CFTR-variants affecting the functional properties of the CFTR protein seem to offer protection against the development of PSC, confirming our hypothesis that CFTR might be implicated in the pathogenesis of PSC.

Steroids. 2009 Jan;74(1):20-9. Epub 2008 Sep 11., [PMID:18831980]
Abstract [show]
Mouse models of cystic fibrosis (CF) display increased sulfotransferase 1E1 (SULT1E1) activity in hepatocytes of cystic fibrosis transmembrane receptor (CFTR)-deficient animals. SULT1E1 is responsible for the sulfation and inactivation of beta-estradiol (E2) at physiological concentrations. IGF-1 message levels in CFTR(-/-) mouse livers were positively correlated with body weight and negatively correlated with SULT1E1 activity. Growth hormone (GH) is important in the regulation of hepatic IGF-1 expression indicating that E2 levels are involved with GH signaling in hepatocytes. To investigate the effects of E2 and SULT1E1 activity on GH signal transduction in human hepatocytes, SULT1E1 was stably expressed in HepG2 cells. Effects of increased E2 sulfation on the GH signaling pathway and E2-regulated gene expression were examined. Pretreatment of HepG2 cells with 10nM E2 prior to GH stimulation increased STAT5b phosphorylation and IGF-1 expression. In SULT1E1-transfected HepG2 cells, GH-stimulated STAT5b phosphorylation was significantly decreased. E2 treatment had no effect on STAT5b phosphorylation in the absence of GH stimulation. E2 also had no effect on Jak-2 phosphorylation. E2 has an apparent rapid action on increasing GH-stimulated STAT5b phosphorylation that was not attenuated by the estrogen receptor antagonist, ICI 182,780. Physiological levels of E2 in HepG2 cells increase GH stimulation of IGF-1 production apparently through increased phosphorylated STAT5b levels and transcriptional activation of the IGF-1 gene. The enhanced SULT1E1 activity may have a role in inhibiting GH-stimulated STAT5b phosphorylation and IGF-1 synthesis via the sulfation and inactivation of E2.

CFTR mutation, which causes cystic fibrosis (CF), has also recently been identified as causing glutathione system dysfunction and systemic deficiency of reduced glutathione (GSH). Such dysfunction and deficiency regarding GSH may contribute to the pathophysiology of CF. We followed 13 patients (age range 1-27 years) with cystic fibrosis who were using a regimen of reduced glutathione (GSH), including oral glutathione and inhaled buffered glutathione in an uncontrolled, observational study. Dosage ranged from 66-148 mg/kg/day in divided doses, and the term examined was the initial 5.5 months of GSH use (45 days of incrementally adjusted dose, plus 4 months of use at full dosage). Baseline and post-measurements of FEV1 percent predicted, BMI percentile, and weight percentile were noted, in addition to bacterial status and pulmonary exacerbations. Significant improvement in the following clinical parameters was observed: average improvement in FEV1 percent predicted (N=10) was 5.8 percentage points (p<0.0001), average weight percentile (N=13) increased 8.6 points (p<0.001), BMI percentile (N=11) improved on average 1.22 points (p<0.001). All patients improved in FEV1 and BMI, if measured in their case; 12 of 13 patients improved in weight percentile. Positive sputum cultures of bacteria in 11 patients declined from 13 to 5 (p<0.03) with sputum cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa becoming negative in 4 of 5 patients previously culturing PA, including two of three patients chronically infected with PA as determined by antibody status. Use of a daily GSH regimen appears to be associated in CF patients with significant improvement in lung function and weight, and a significant decline in bacteria cultured in this uncontrolled study. These findings bear further clinical investigation in larger, randomized, controlled studies.

The study of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutations in a group of patients from Romania.
J Cyst Fibros. 2008 Sep;7(5):423-8. Epub 2008 May 7., [PMID:18467194]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is produced by mutations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator Gene (CFTR) gene. METHODS: One hundred twenty eight patients with CF were analysed for mutations in the CFTR gene in order to establish the frequency of CF mutations in the Romanian population. The chief methods of analysis were polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of DNA extracted from blood and electrophoresis of PCR products. RESULTS: The frequency of F508del in CF chromosomes from Romania is approximately 56.3%. Other frequent mutations noted are: G542X (3.9%), W1282X (2.3%), and CFTRdele2,3(21 kb)(1.6%); the remaining mutations have frequencies below 1%. CONCLUSIONS: We consider that the frequency of F508del in CF patients from Romania is higher than in previous reports, reaching 56.3%, probably owing to more rigorous selection of patients for genetic testing, allowing improved calculation of mutation frequencies.

Cystic fibrosis carrier frequency and estimated prevalence of the disease in Morocco.
J Cyst Fibros. 2008 Sep;7(5):440-3. Epub 2008 Feb 1., [PMID:18243066]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The epidemiology of cystic fibrosis (CF) is poorly known in North African populations, in particular in Morocco and the CF carrier frequency in the general Moroccan population has never been evaluated. METHODS: To estimate the prevalence of CF mutations in Morocco, blood samples from 150 healthy Moroccans were tested for frequent CFTR mutations and the intron 8 polyT variant. RESULTS: Two subjects were heterozygous for F508del and eight others for the (T)5 variant. CONCLUSION: These findings indicate that the Moroccan population is at risk for CF and CFTR-related disorders. CF prevalence could be in the range of that found in European populations. Wider studies are necessary to identify the clinical pattern and accurately determine the prevalence and molecular basis of CF in Morocco.

Validation of high-resolution DNA melting analysis for mutation scanning of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene.
J Mol Diagn. 2008 Sep;10(5):424-34. Epub 2008 Aug 7., [PMID:18687795]
Abstract [show]
High-resolution melting analysis of polymerase chain reaction products for mutation scanning, which began in the early 2000s, is based on monitoring of the fluorescence released during the melting of double-stranded DNA labeled with specifically developed saturation dye, such as LC-Green. We report here the validation of this method to scan 98% of the coding sequence of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. We designed 32 pairs of primers to amplify and analyze the 27 exons of the gene. Thanks to the addition of a small GC-clamp at the 5' ends of the primers, one single melting domain and one identical annealing temperature were obtained to co-amplify all of the fragments. A total of 307 DNA samples, extracted by the salt precipitation method, carrying 221 mutations and 21 polymorphisms, plus 20 control samples free from variations (confirmed by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography analysis), was used. With the conditions described in this study, 100% of samples that carry heterozygous mutations and 60% of those with homozygous mutations were identified. The study of a cohort of 136 idiopathic chronic pancreatitis patients enabled us to prospectively evaluate this technique. Thus, high-resolution melting analysis is a robust and sensitive single-tube technique for screening mutations in a gene and promises to become the gold standard over denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography, particularly for highly mutated genes such as CFTR, and appears suitable for use in reference diagnostic laboratories.

BACKGROUND: In about 10% of patients worldwide and more than 50% of patients in Israel, cystic fibrosis results from nonsense mutations (premature stop codons) in the messenger RNA (mRNA) for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). PTC124 is an orally bioavailable small molecule that is designed to induce ribosomes to selectively read through premature stop codons during mRNA translation, to produce functional CFTR. METHODS: This phase II prospective trial recruited adults with cystic fibrosis who had at least one nonsense mutation in the CFTR gene. Patients were assessed in two 28-day cycles. During the first cycle, patients received PTC124 at 16 mg/kg per day in three doses every day for 14 days, followed by 14 days without treatment; in the second cycle, patients received 40 mg/kg of PTC124 in three doses every day for 14 days, followed by 14 days without treatment. The primary outcome had three components: change in CFTR-mediated total chloride transport; proportion of patients who responded to treatment; and normalisation of chloride transport, as assessed by transepithelial nasal potential difference (PD) at baseline, at the end of each 14-day treatment course, and after 14 days without treatment. The trial was registered with who.int/ictrp, and with clinicaltrials.gov, number NCT00237380. FINDINGS: Transepithelial nasal PD was evaluated in 23 patients in the first cycle and in 21 patients in the second cycle. Mean total chloride transport increased in the first treatment phase, with a change of -7.1 (SD 7.0) mV (p<0.0001), and in the second, with a change of -3.7 (SD 7.3) mV (p=0.032). We recorded a response in total chloride transport (defined as a change in nasal PD of -5 mV or more) in 16 of the 23 patients in the first cycle's treatment phase (p<0.0001) and in eight of the 21 patients in the second cycle (p<0.0001). Total chloride transport entered the normal range for 13 of 23 patients in the first cycle's treatment phase (p=0.0003) and for nine of 21 in the second cycle (p=0.02). Two patients given PTC124 had constipation without intestinal obstruction, and four had mild dysuria. No drug-related serious adverse events were recorded. INTERPRETATION: In patients with cystic fibrosis who have a premature stop codon in the CFTR gene, oral administration of PTC124 to suppress nonsense mutations reduces the epithelial electrophysiological abnormalities caused by CFTR dysfunction.

J Cyst Fibros. 2008 May;7(3):179-96., [PMID:18456578]
Abstract [show]
It is often challenging for the clinician interested in cystic fibrosis (CF) to interpret molecular genetic results, and to integrate them in the diagnostic process. The limitations of genotyping technology, the choice of mutations to be tested, and the clinical context in which the test is administered can all influence how genetic information is interpreted. This paper describes the conclusions of a consensus conference to address the use and interpretation of CF mutation analysis in clinical settings. Although the diagnosis of CF is usually straightforward, care needs to be exercised in the use and interpretation of genetic tests: genotype information is not the final arbiter of a clinical diagnosis of CF or CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein related disorders. The diagnosis of these conditions is primarily based on the clinical presentation, and is supported by evaluation of CFTR function (sweat testing, nasal potential difference) and genetic analysis. None of these features are sufficient on their own to make a diagnosis of CF or CFTR-related disorders. Broad genotype/phenotype associations are useful in epidemiological studies, but CFTR genotype does not accurately predict individual outcome. The use of CFTR genotype for prediction of prognosis in people with CF at the time of their diagnosis is not recommended. The importance of communication between clinicians and medical genetic laboratories is emphasized. The results of testing and their implications should be reported in a manner understandable to the clinicians caring for CF patients.

Abstract [show]
The ability to accurately quantify specific nucleic acid molecules in complex biomolecule solutions in real time is important in diagnostic and basic research. Here we describe a DNA-PNA (peptide nucleic acid) hybridization assay that allows sensitive quantification of specific nucleic acids in solution and concomitant detection of select single base mutations in resulting DNA-PNA duplexes. The technique employs so-called FIT (forced intercalation) probes in which one base is replaced by a thiazole orange (TO) dye molecule. If a DNA molecule that is complementary to the FIT-PNA molecule (except at the site of the dye) hybridizes to the probe, the TO dye exhibits intense fluorescence because stacking in the duplexes enforces a coplanar arrangement even in the excited state. However, a base mismatch at either position immediately adjacent to the TO dye dramatically decreases fluorescence, presumably because the TO dye has room to undergo torsional motions that lead to rapid depletion of the excited state. Of note, we found that the use of d-ornithine rather than aminoethylglycine as the PNA backbone increases the intensity of fluorescence emitted by matched probe-target duplexes while specificity of fluorescence signaling under nonstringent conditions is also increased. The usefulness of the ornithine-containing FIT probes was demonstrated in the real-time PCR analysis providing a linear measurement range over at least seven orders of magnitude. The analysis of two important single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CFTR gene confirmed the ability of FIT probes to facilitate unambiguous SNP calls for genomic DNA by quantitative PCR.

Estimating the age of CFTR mutations predominantly found in Brittany (Western France).
J Cyst Fibros. 2008 Mar;7(2):168-73. Epub 2007 Sep 6., [PMID:17825628]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Disparities in the spectrum of mutations within the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene are commonly observed in populations from different ethnical and/or geographical origins. The occurrence of CF in Brittany (western France) is one of the highest in populations from Caucasian origin (<1/2000 in specific areas). The W846X(2), 1078delT and G551D mutations, as well as the I1027T polymorphism in cis with the DeltaF508 mutation (currently referred to as p.F508del) are particularly frequent in this area. We investigated the age of the respective variants in the region of interest. METHODS: Several polymorphic markers surrounding the CFTR gene were genotyped. Allele frequencies as well as mutation rates and other parameters were used to calculate the respective age of the most recent common ancestors in the region of interest by a previously employed, simple likelihood-based method. RESULTS: Following haplotype reconstruction and simulation, the ages were estimated to be approximately 600, 1000, 1200 and 600 years, respectively (with a 95% confidence interval). CONCLUSIONS: These datings thus provide historical insights in the context of understanding population migrations. They also underline the usefulness of this method for estimating the age of rare mutations with a limited number of carriers.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common inherited disorder in Caucasian populations, with over 1400 mutations identified in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene. Mutations in the CFTR gene may be also causative for CBAVD (Congenital Bilateral Absence of the Vas Deferens). The type and distribution of mutations varies widely between different countries and/or ethnic groups, and is relatively unknown in Iran. We therefore performed a comprehensive analysis of the CFTR gene in Iranian CF patients. METHODS: 69 Iranian CF patients, and 1 CBAVD patient, were analysed for mutations in the complete coding region, and its exon/intron junctions, of their CFTR genes, using different methods, such as ARMS (amplification refractory mutation system)-PCR, SSCP (single stranded conformation polymorphism) analysis, restriction enzyme digestion analysis, direct sequencing, and MLPA (Multiplex Ligation-mediated Probe Amplification). RESULTS: CFTR mutation analysis revealed the identification of 37 mutations in 69 Iranian CF patients. Overall, 81.9% (113/138) CFTR genes derived from Iranian CF patients could be characterized for a disease-causing mutation. The CBAVD patient was found to be homozygous for the p.W1145R mutation. The most common mutations were p.F508del (DeltaF508) (18.1%), c.2183_2184delAAinsG (2183AA>G) (6.5%), p.S466X (5.8%), p.N1303K (4.3%), c.2789+5G>A (4.3%), p.G542X (3.6%), c.3120+1G>A (3.6%), p.R334W (2.9%) and c.3130delA (2.9%). These 9 types of mutant CFTR genes totaled for 52% of all CFTR genes derived from the 69 Iranian CF patients. Eight mutations, c.406-8T>C, p.A566D, c.2576delA, c.2752-1_2756delGGTGGCinsTTG, p.T1036I, p.W1145R, c.3850-24G>A, c.1342-?_1524+?del, were found for the first time in this study. CONCLUSIONS: We identified 37 CFTR mutations in 69 well characterized Iranian CF patients, obtaining a CFTR mutation detection rate of 81.9%, the highest detection rate obtained in the Iranian population so far. These findings will assist in genetic counseling, prenatal diagnosis and future screening of CF in Iran.

CFTR mutations in the Algerian population.
J Cyst Fibros. 2008 Jan;7(1):54-9. Epub 2007 Jun 14., [PMID:17572159]
Abstract [show]
The nature and frequency of the major CFTR mutations in the North African population remain unclear, although a small number of CFTR mutation detection studies have been done in Algeria and Tunisia, showing largely European mutations such as F508del, G542X and N1303K, albeit at different frequencies, which presumably emerged via population admixture with Caucasians. Some unique mutations were identified in these populations. This is the first study that includes a genetic and clinical evaluation of CF patients living in Algeria. In order to offer an effective diagnostic service and to make accurate risk estimates, we decided to identify the CFTR mutations in 81 Algerian patients. We carried out D-HPLC, chemical-clamp denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, multiplex amplification analysis of the CFTR gene and automated direct DNA sequencing. We identified 15 different mutations which account for 58.5% of the CF chromosomes. We used a quantitative PCR technique (quantitative multiplex PCR short fragment fluorescence analysis) to screen for deletion/duplication in the 27 exons of the gene. Taking advantage of the homogeneity of the sample, we report clinical features of homozygous CF patients. As CFTR mutations have been detected in males with infertility, 46 unrelated Algerian individuals with obstructive azoospermia were also investigated.

ENaCbeta and gamma genes as modifier genes in cystic fibrosis.
J Cyst Fibros. 2008 Jan;7(1):23-9. Epub 2007 Jun 7., [PMID:17560176]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Clinical phenotype varies among cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with identical CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)genotype, suggesting that genetic modifiers exist. Transgenic mice that overexpress SCNN1beta present CF-like lung disease symptoms. Mutations or variants in SCNN1beta may therefore potentially modulate the clinical phenotype in CF patients. METHODS: We analysed by DHPLC SCNN1beta and SCNN1gamma genes in 56 patients with classical CF. Patients were classified into two groups according to their CFTR genotype and their severity: 38 patients with severe genotype and an unexpectedly mild lung phenotype, and 18 patients with mild genotype and a severe lung phenotype. RESULTS: We found 3 patients out of 56 carrying at least one missense mutation. Two were novel (p.Thr313Met in SCNN1beta, p.Leu481Gln in SCNN1gamma) and two were previously described (p.Gly589Ser in SCNN1beta and p.Val546Ileu in SCNNgamma). p.Thr313Met has been identified in a CF patient with mild genotype and severe lung phenotype suggesting that it could act in increasing ENaC activity. The three other variants have been identified in CF patients with severe genotype and mild lung phenotype suggesting that they might decrease ENaC activity. However, the function of ENaC in the nasal epithelia of these patients, evaluated by nasal potential difference measurements, did not support the fact that these variants were functional, at least in nasal epithelium. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that genetic variants in ENaCbeta and gamma genes do not modulate disease severity in the majority of CF patients.

High incidence of the CFTR mutations 3272-26A-->G and L927P in Belgian cystic fibrosis patients, and identification of three new CFTR mutations (186-2A-->G, E588V, and 1671insTATCA).
J Cyst Fibros. 2007 Nov 30;6(6):371-5. Epub 2007 May 3., [PMID:17481968]
Abstract [show]
We have analyzed 143 unrelated Belgian patients with a positive diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) for mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. An initial screening for 29 CFTR mutations led to mutation identification in 89.9% of the tested chromosomes. Subsequently an extensive analysis of the CFTR gene was performed by denaturating gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) in those patients with at least one unknown mutation after preliminary screening. In addition to 10 previously reported mutations we identified 2 new mutations 186-2A-->G and E588V. A third new mutation 1671insTATCA was identified during routine screening for DeltaF508. Two mutations were detected with a higher frequency than expected: 3272-26A-->G, which is the second most common mutation after DeltaF508 in our CF population with a frequency of 3.8%, and L927P (2.4%). The clinical data is presented for the mutations 186-2A-->G, E588V, 3272-26A-->G and L927P. The mutation data are useful for the Belgian population to supplement the initial screening set of mutations.

Highly preferential association of NonF508del CF mutations with the M470 allele.
J Cyst Fibros. 2007 Jan;6(1):15-22. Epub 2006 Jun 19., [PMID:16784904]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: On the basis of previous findings on random individuals, we hypothesized a preferential association of CF causing mutations with the M allele of the M470V polymorphic site of the CFTR gene. METHODS: We have determined the M/V-CF mutation haplotype in a series of 201 North East Italian and 73 Czech CF patients who were not F508del homozygotes, as F508del was already known to be fully associated with the M allele. RESULTS: Out of 358 not F508del CF genes, 84 carried the V allele and 274 the less common M allele. In the N-E Italian population, MM subjects have a risk of carrying a CF causing mutation 6.9x greater than VV subjects when F508del is excluded and 15.4x when F508del is included. In the Czech population a similar, although less pronounced, association is observed. CONCLUSIONS: Besides the possible biological significance of this association, the possibility of exploiting it for a pilot screening program has been explored in a local North East Italian population for which CF patients were characterized for their CF mutation. General M470V genotyping followed by common CF mutation screening limited to couples in which each partner carries at least one M allele would need testing only 39% of the couples, which contribute 89% of the total risk, with a cost benefit.

Mutational spectrum of cystic fibrosis patients from Cordoba province and its zone of influence: implications of molecular diagnosis in Argentina.
Mol Genet Metab. 2006 Apr;87(4):370-5. Epub 2006 Jan 19., [PMID:16423550]
Abstract [show]
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder affecting 1/2000-4000 newborns in Caucasian populations. This lethal disease mainly affects respiratory and digestive organs as well as fertility in man. So far, the CF prevalence and mutational spectrum have showed specificity among populations and regions, making it necessary to establish them in each one. In this study, we present the spectrum and frequency of CFTR gene mutations in CF patients from Cordoba (a province with 3.1 millions inhabitants in the middle of Argentina) and its zone of influence, to offer an accurate genetic testing. The study includes 78 families in which 98 patients fulfilled clinical criteria to CF diagnosis. The strategy for the molecular diagnosis comprised analysis of 21 common mutations, microsatellite haplotypes and the complete CFTR gene analysis using scanning techniques followed by sequencing of the abnormal migration patterns. Our first step led us to the identification of 10 mutations that represented 76% of alleles. Another four mutations (p.R1066C, c.1811 + 1.6 kbA > G, c.711 + 1G > T, and p.G85E) were found based on the microsatellite haplotype-mutation association. Finally, 14 mutations were characterized after the CFTR gene scanning, three of them are not previously described (p.G27R, c.622-2A > G, and p.W277R). In summary, we have identified 27 mutations accounting for 94.23% of CF alleles. This characteristic mutational spectrum highlights the 14 most frequent mutations (>1%) in the Cordoba region.

Molecular screening of CFTR gene in Brazilian men with bilateral agenesis of the vas deferens.
Hum Fertil (Camb). 2006 Mar;9(1):53-6., [PMID:16581722]
Abstract [show]
Infertility is a common symptom of cystic fibrosis, especially in men (95% become sterile). It is caused by blockage of the vas deferens and the epididymis, which result in degeneration of the tubules. The purpose of this study was to verify the frequency of CFTR gene mutation in patients with bilateral agenesis of the vas deferens using SSCP and sequencing. The study population consisted of 40 white individuals with agenesis of the vas deferens as well as their 12 siblings without agenesis of the vas deferens. CTFR gene mutation was found in 22 of the 40 patients (55%) and it was possible to detect both mutating alleles in these 22 patients. The most frequent genotype found was ?F508/IVS8-5T. There was no genotype concordance in siblings. Our results show the importance of the investigation of CFTR mutation in patients with vas deferens agenesis.

A haplotype framework for cystic fibrosis mutations in Iran.

Abstract [show]
This is the first comprehensive profile of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations and their corresponding haplotypes in the Iranian population. All of the 27 CFTR exons of 60 unrelated Iranian CF patients were sequenced to identify disease-causing mutations. Eleven core haplotypes of CFTR were identified by genotyping six high-frequency simple nucleotide polymorphisms. The carrier frequency of 2.5 in 100 (1 in 40) was estimated from the frequency of heterozygous patients and suggests that contrary to popular belief, cystic fibrosis may be a common, under-diagnosed disease in Iran. A heterogeneous mutation spectrum was observed at the CFTR locus in 60 cystic fibrosis (CF) patients from Iran. Twenty putative disease-causing mutations were identified on 64 (53%) of the 120 chromosomes. The five most common Iranian mutations together represented 37% of the expected mutated alleles. The most frequent mutation, DeltaF508 (p.F508del), represented only 16% of the expected mutated alleles. The next most frequent mutations were c.1677del2 (p.515fs) at 7.5%, c.4041C>G (p.N1303K) at 5.6%, c.2183AA>G (p.684fs) at 5%, and c.3661A>T (p.K1177X) at 2.5%. Three of the five most frequent Iranian mutations are not included in a commonly used panel of CF mutations, underscoring the importance of identifying geographic-specific mutations in this population.

Increased frequency of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutations in infertile males.
Fertil Steril. 2006 Jan;85(1):135-8., [PMID:16412743]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the frequency of mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene in males with reduced sperm quality before intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). DESIGN: The nine most frequent cystic-fibrosis-causing mutations in the German population and IVS8T alleles were analyzed. SETTING: University-based centers for reproductive medicine and clinical genetics. PATIENT(S): An unselected group of 597 males with oligo-, astheno-, terato-, crypto-, oligoasthenoteratozoospermia, or azoospermia, which underwent pre-ICSI genetic counseling over a 5-year period. INTERVENTION(S): Blood samples were collected from the patients during genetic counseling. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Frequency of mutations of CFTR gene in infertile males. RESULT(S): A heterozygous CFTR mutation was observed in 34 of 597 patients (5.70%). None of the patients had two CFTR mutations. Given that our mutation panel recognizes about 82% of heterozygotes, it can be assumed that the frequency of CFTR heterozygotes in our cohort is about 6.94%. The frequency of CFTR mutations in our cohort did not correlate with a reduced sperm count. CONCLUSION(S): The frequency of cystic fibrosis in the German population is 1:3300. Thus, a CFTR heterozygosity of 3.42% can be estimated. This indicates that in our cohort of infertile males, the frequency of CFTR heterozygosity is twofold higher than in the general population (P<.0001).

Cystic fibrosis mutations and genotype-pulmonary phenotype analysis.
J Cyst Fibros. 2006 Jan;5(1):33-41. Epub 2005 Nov 4., [PMID:16275171]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Although there are more than 1000 mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, most of them are uncommon and only limited information exists regarding genotype-pulmonary phenotype relationships. METHODS: We determined and classified the CFTR mutations using denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography and developed new, quantitative methods to categorize pulmonary phenotypes. RESULTS: Two novel alleles were discovered, namely G1047R and 1525-2A-->G, which were accompanied by F508del and G551D mutations, respectively. Assessment of numerous options revealed that CF pulmonary phenotype categorization in children cannot be accomplished with clinical or pulmonary function data but is facilitated by longitudinal quantitative chest radiology. It was most useful to categorize pulmonary disease status by evaluating the typical pattern of abnormalities in patients homozygous for the F508del mutation, and then compare patients with minor mutations to this typical CF pulmonary phenotype. By this method, both patients with novel mutations have pulmonary phenotypes typical of F508del homozygotes. However, patients with class IV mutations (e.g., R347P) or with pancreatic sufficiency showed serial chest radiographs that were atypically mild. CONCLUSIONS: Longitudinal quantitative chest radiography provides a new strategy for CF pulmonary phenotype categorization that should be useful for genotype-phenotype delineation in individual patients and in both epidemiologic studies and clinical trials involving groups of children with CF.

Detection of CFTR mutations using ARMS and low-density microarrays.
Biosens Bioelectron. 2005 Dec 15;21(6):933-9., [PMID:15890513]
Abstract [show]
The amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) is routinely used for the identification of specific mutations within genomes. This PCR-based assay, although simple, is performed at a low-throughput scale, usually requiring gel-electrophoresis for the identification of specific mutations. We have applied the ARMS technology to a low-density microarray system to facilitate the needs of the medical clinic; high-throughput capabilities and ease-of-use. Mutations within the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene (DeltaF508, 1717-1G>A, G542X, 621+1G>T, and N1303K) were detected by multiplex-ARMS-PCR, and fragments were post-PCR labeled with Cy5. Amine-modified probes specific for both the wild-type and mutant forms of each mutation site were attached to glass substrates. Following hybridization of the PCR fragments to the attached probes (in a low-density microarray format), confirmation of the presence of specific sequences was achieved using a commercial scanner, as well as a fabricated low-cost fluorescent detector and applicable software. The novel combination of the ARMS and low-density microarray technologies allows for a high-throughput, simple means to rapidly identify multiple known mutations for many genetic diseases including cystic fibrosis.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The incidence of cystic fibrosis (CF) is low in the isolated Finnish population and the Finnish CF mutation spectrum has differed from many European countries. METHODS: We have analyzed the mutation spectrum and the geographical distribution of CF mutations in Finland covering the last 18 years (1987-2004). RESULTS: A total of 14 mutations were identified; two of them new, 774insT and S589T (G>C at 1,898). The overall coverage of mutations was 97% (99/102 chromosomes). The most frequent mutations were F508del and 394delTT, found in 36% (37/102) and 35% (36/102) of the CF chromosomes respectively. Of the rare mutations, a mutation of presumable Slavic origin, CFTRdele2.3 (21 kb), was enriched in a rural isolate with a frequency of 5,9% (6/102), and a mutation that possibly indicates Swedish influence, 3659delC, was scattered throughout the country with a similar frequency of 5,9% (6/102). G542X, R1162X, R117H, 3732delA, 1,898 + 3A >C, S1196X, S945L, W57R, 774insT and S589T were each identified in a number of chromosomes from one to three. CONCLUSIONS: Our observations of the Finnish CF mutation spectrum fit well with the characteristics of Finland as a population of multiple local founder effects.

Abstract [show]
Nitric oxide (NO) plays a central role in many airway physiological functions, and its production appears to be related with progression of lung disease in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). However, underlying mechanisms which specifically link NO and CF-related lung disease remain unclear. Following in vitro and animal studies suggesting a role for NO in ion transport in various epithelia, this work investigates the relationship between transepithelial baseline potential difference (BPD), an index of airway ion transport, and exhaled NO in the airways of adult patients with CF. Association with other phenotypic traits, lung function tests and CFTR genotype was also assessed. Using simple linear regression, F(E)NO and transepithelial BPD values were significantly inversely correlated (p<0.001, r=-0.53). Polynomial analysis evidenced an asymptotic relationship between F(E)NO and BPD values, yielding a plateau for absolute BPD values above 50 mV. This relation was not altered by adjustment for clinical and genetic characteristics of the patients. The relationship between exhaled NO and transepithelial BPD suggests that low NO concentrations likely worsens airway ion transport impairment resulting from CFTR defect. These results fit with experimental studies that suggest the inhibitory effect of NO on sodium absorption, which is the main determinant of airway basal transepithelial conductance.

Abstract [show]
The detection of echodense fetal bowel on ultrasound examination in the second trimester of pregnancy justifies invasive procedures such as amniocentesis to detect an underlying cause. We present a case in which initial tests identified only one mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR)-gene of the fetus, the family history being negative for CF. Strongly reduced intestinal enzyme activities suggested intestinal obstruction and further increased the estimated risk for CF. After the 24th gestational week, a second mutation was found, confirming cystic fibrosis in this child. Problems in counseling in this particular case are discussed.

Genotyping microarray for the detection of more than 200 CFTR mutations in ethnically diverse populations.
J Mol Diagn. 2005 Aug;7(3):375-87., [PMID:16049310]
Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF), which is due to mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene, is a common life-shortening disease. Although CF occurs with the highest incidence in Caucasians, it also occurs in other ethnicities with variable frequency. Recent national guidelines suggest that all couples contemplating pregnancy should be informed of molecular screening for CF carrier status for purposes of genetic counseling. Commercially available CF carrier screening panels offer a limited panel of mutations, however, making them insufficiently sensitive for certain groups within an ethnically diverse population. This discrepancy is even more pronounced when such carrier screening panels are used for diagnostic purposes. By means of arrayed primer extension technology, we have designed a genotyping microarray with 204 probe sites for CF transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutation detection. The arrayed primer extension array, based on a platform technology for disease detection with multiple applications, is a robust, cost-effective, and easily modifiable assay suitable for CF carrier screening and disease detection.

Gene SNPs and mutations in clinical genetic testing: haplotype-based testing and analysis.
Mutat Res. 2005 Jun 3;573(1-2):195-204., [PMID:15829248]
Abstract [show]
Haplotype-based analysis using high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers have gained increasing attention in evaluating candidate genes in various clinical situations. For example, haplotype information is useful for predicting the severity and prognosis of certain genetic disorders. The intragenic cis-interactions between the common polymorphisms and the pathogenic mutations of prion protein (PRNP) and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) genes greatly influence the phenotypes and the disease penetrance of hereditary Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and cystic fibrosis. Merits of haplotype study are more evident in the fine mapping of complex diseases and in identifying genetic variations that influence individual's response to drugs. Knowledge-based approaches and/or linkage analyses using SNP tagged haplotypes are effective tools in detecting genetic associations. For example, haplotype studies in the inflammatory bowel disease susceptibility loci revealed diverse cis and trans gene-gene interactions, which can affect the clinical outcomes. Although currently, we have very limited knowledge on haplotype-phenotypic characterizations of most genes, these examples demonstrate that increased understanding of the clinically relevant haplotypes will provide better results in the diagnosis and possibly in the treatment of both monogenic and polygenic diseases.

Diagnostic testing by CFTR gene mutation analysis in a large group of Hispanics: novel mutations and assessment of a population-specific mutation spectrum.
J Mol Diagn. 2005 May;7(2):289-99., [PMID:15858154]
Abstract [show]
Characterization of CFTR mutations in the U.S. Hispanic population is vital to early diagnosis, genetic counseling, patient-specific treatment, and the understanding of cystic fibrosis (CF) pathogenesis. The mutation spectrum in Hispanics, however, remains poorly defined. A group of 257 self-identified Hispanics with clinical manifestations consistent with CF were studied by temporal temperature gradient electrophoresis and/or DNA sequencing. A total of 183 mutations were identified, including 14 different amino acid-changing novel variants. A significant proportion (78/85) of the different mutations identified would not have been detected by the ACMG/ACOG-recommended 25-mutation screening panel. Over one third of the mutations (27/85) occurred with a relative frequency >1%, which illustrates that the identified mutations are not all rare. This is supported by a comparison with other large CFTR studies. These results underscore the disparity in mutation identification between Caucasians and Hispanics and show utility for comprehensive diagnostic CFTR mutation analysis in this population.

Complete gene scanning by temperature gradient capillary electrophoresis using the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene as a model.
J Mol Diagn. 2005 Feb;7(1):111-20., [PMID:15681482]
Abstract [show]
Many inherited diseases involve large genes with many different mutations. Identifying a wide spectrum of mutations requires an efficient gene-scanning method. By differentiating thermodynamic stability and mobility of heteroduplexes from heterozygous samples, temperature gradient capillary electrophoresis (TGCE) was used to scan the entire coding region of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene. An initial panel (29 different mutations) showed 100% agreement between TGCE scanning and previously genotyped results for heterozygous samples. Different peak patterns were observed for single base substitutions and base insertions/deletions. Subsequently, 12 deidentified clinical samples genotyped as wild type for 32 mutations were scanned for the entire 27 exons. Results were 100% concordance with the bidirectional sequence analysis. Ten samples had nucleotide variations including a reported base insertion in intron 14b (2789 + 2insA) resulting in a possible mRNA splicing defect, and an unreported missense mutation in exon 20 (3991 G/A) with unknown clinical significance. This methodology does not require labeled primers or probes for detection and separation through a temperature gradient eliminates laborious temperature optimization required for other technologies. TGCE automation and high-throughput capability can be implemented in a clinical environment for mutation scanning with high sensitivity, thus reducing sequencing cost and effort.

status: NEW179 Discussion More than 1000 mutations have been reported since the CFTR gene was cloned and characterized in 1989.23,25 Of these mutations, ⌬F508 (a 3-base deletion) is the most frequent mutation and results in a defective cAMP-regulated chloride transport in epithelial cells.26 Other mutations in the CFTR gene such as G542X, G551D, and N1303K occur in greater than 1% in the CF population and are associated with severe pancreatic insufficiency.23,27 Recently, carriers of the I148T mutation have received more attention because I148T has been found in association with the 3199del6 mutation, which may be necessary for the classic CF phenotype.28 Because of the complexity of both the mutations and the phenotypes, a high-throughput mutation scanning method to screen the entire coding region of the CFTR gene may provide valuable clinical information regarding CF genotypes and respective phenotypes.

Rapid screening for 31 mutations and polymorphisms in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene by Lminex xMAP suspension array.
Methods Mol Med. 2005;114:147-71., [PMID:16156102]
Abstract [show]
A suspension array hybridization assay is described for the detection of 31 mutations and polymorphisms in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene using Luminex xMAP technology. The Luminex xMAP system allows simultaneous detection of up to 100 different targets in a single multiplexed reaction. Included in the method are the procedures for design of oligonucleotide capture probes and PCR amplification primers, coupling oligonucleotide capture probes to carboxylated microspheres, hybridization of coupled microspheres to oligonucleotide targets, production of targets from DNA samples by multiplexed PCR amplification, and detection of PCR-amplified targets by direct hybridization to probe-coupled microspheres. Mutation screening with the system is rapid, requires relatively few sample manipulations, and provides adequate resolution to reliably genotype the 25 CFTR mutations and 6 CFTR polymorphisms contained in the ACMG/ACOG/NIH-recommended core mutation panel for general population CF carrier screening.

High heterogeneity of CFTR mutations and unexpected low incidence of cystic fibrosis in the Mediterranean France.
J Cyst Fibros. 2004 Dec;3(4):265-72., [PMID:15698946]
Abstract [show]
In this report, we present updated spectrum and frequency of mutations of the CFTR gene that are responsible for cystic fibrosis (CF) in Languedoc-Roussillon (L-R), the southwestern part of France. A total of 75 different mutations were identified by DGGE in 215 families, accounting for 97.6% of CF genes and generating 88 different mutational genotypes. The frequency of p.F508del was 60.23% in L-R versus 67.18% in the whole country and only five other mutations (p.G542X, p.N1303K, p.R334W, c.1717-1G>A, c.711+1G>T) had a frequency higher than 1%. The mutations were scattered over 20 exons or their border. This sample representing only 5.7% of French CF patients contributed to 24% of CFTR mutations reported in France. This is one of the highest molecular allelic heterogeneity reported so far in CF. We also present the result of a neonatal screening program based on a two-tiered approach "IRT/20 mutations/IRT" analysis on blood spots, implemented in France with the aim to improve survival and quality of life of patients diagnosed before clinical onset. This 18-month pilot project showed an unexpected low incidence of CF (1/8885) in South of France, with only six CF children detected among 43,489 neonates born in L-R, and 13 among 125,339 neonates born in Provence-Alpes-Cote-d'Azur (PACA).

Microsphere bead arrays and sequence validation of 5/7/9T genotypes for multiplex screening of cystic fibrosis polymorphisms.
J Mol Diagn. 2004 Nov;6(4):348-55., [PMID:15507674]
Abstract [show]
The development of simple and rapid methods for the detection of the common genetic mutations associated with cystic fibrosis (CF) requires access to positive-control samples including the 5/7/9T variants of intron 8. We used PCR and a simple multiplex bead-array assay to identify 5/7/9T control samples from 29 commercially available DNA samples. Unpurified PCR products were directly hybridized to color-coded beads containing allele-specific capture probes for 5/7/9T detection. The performance of the assay was investigated using reverse-complement oligonucleotides, individual PCR products, and multiplex PCR products for 5/7/9T detection within a complex CFTR screening assay. Samples were genotyped by grouping the relative signal intensities from each capture probe. Of 29 commercially available DNA samples analyzed, 2 5T/7T, 2 5T/9T, 9 7T/9T, 11 7T/7T, and 5 9T/9T genotypes were identified. The genotype within each sample group was confirmed by DNA sequencing. The assay was compatible with the analysis of 10 to 1000 ng of genomic DNA isolated from whole blood and allowed for the separate identification of primary CFTR mutations from reflex variants. The correct identification of positive controls demonstrated the utility of a simple bead-array assay and provided accessible samples for assay optimization and for routine quality control in the clinical laboratory.

CFTR Cl- channel function in native human colon correlates with the genotype and phenotype in cystic fibrosis.
Gastroenterology. 2004 Oct;127(4):1085-95., [PMID:15480987]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by over 1000 mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene and presents with a widely variable phenotype. Genotype-phenotype studies identified CFTR mutations that were associated with pancreatic sufficiency (PS). Residual Cl- channel function was shown for selected PS mutations in heterologous cells. However, the functional consequences of most CFTR mutations in native epithelia are not well established. METHODS: To elucidate the relationships between epithelial CFTR function, CFTR genotype, and patient phenotype, we measured cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-mediated Cl- secretion in rectal biopsy specimens from 45 CF patients who had at least 1 non-DeltaF508 mutation carrying a wide spectrum of CFTR mutations. We compared CFTR genotypes and clinical manifestations of CF patients who expressed residual CFTR-mediated Cl- secretion with patients in whom Cl- secretion was absent. RESULTS: Residual anion secretion was detected in 40% of CF patients, and was associated with later disease onset (P < 0.0001), higher frequency of PS (P < 0.0001), and less severe lung disease (P < 0.05). Clinical outcomes correlated with the magnitude of residual CFTR activity, which was in the range of approximately 12%-54% of controls. CONCLUSIONS: Specific CFTR mutations confer residual CFTR function to rectal epithelia, which is related closely to a mild disease phenotype. Quantification of rectal CFTR-mediated Cl- secretion may be a sensitive test to predict the prognosis of CF disease and identify CF patients who would benefit from therapeutic strategies that would increase residual CFTR activity.

Some like it hot: curcumin and CFTR.
Trends Mol Med. 2004 Oct;10(10):473-5., [PMID:15464445]
Abstract [show]
The activation of mutant forms of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), particularly the most frequent mutant allele (DeltaF508), is a potential strategy for the treatment of the disease cystic fibrosis (CF). Therefore, it is of great interest that curcumin, a component of the spice turmeric, is reported to restore function to this allele, both in heterologous expression systems and in DeltaF508 CF mice. Although other laboratories have not been able to confirm the initial observations, activating DeltaF508 CFTR could have such important therapeutic implications that a thorough investigation of the potential of curcumin is warranted.

Abstract [show]
Studies on CFTR protein expression and localization in native tissues or in primary cultures of human epithelial cells are scarce due to the intrinsic instability of this protein, its low expression in most tissues and also to technical difficulties. However, such data are of the highest importance to understand the pathophysiology of CF. The purpose of this article is to outline several assays for the characterization of primary epithelial cultures and to review different CFTR immunostaining protocols.

J Cyst Fibros. 2004 Aug;3(3):185-8., [PMID:15463906]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: The Reunion Island is a French administrative department located in the Indian Ocean between the islands of Madagascar and Mauritius. Its population is known to be at a high risk of cystic fibrosis (CF). METHODS: Data concerning all CF patients born at the Reunion Island was extracted from the French CF Registry. Twenty-eight DeltaF508/DeltaF508, 17 Y122X/DeltaF508, and 11 Y122X/Y122X were included in a genotype-phenotype study. RESULTS: The detection rate of the CFTR mutations was 83% among the CF patients born at the Reunion Island. Three CFTR mutations accounted for 75% of the detected CF alleles at the Reunion Island (DeltaF508, Y122X, and 3120 + 1G-->A.). The DeltaF508/DeltaF508, DeltaF508/Y122X, and Y122X/Y122X genotypes accounted for 60.2% of the CF patients. Patients carrying at least one Y122X mutation were pancreatic insufficient, had high sweat chloride values and significantly lower anthropometric measures. The mean anthropometric values in all three groups were lower that in the whole CF population followed in "continental" France. This may reflect the poor compliance and even the refusal of treatment noted by the clinicians. CONCLUSIONS: The distribution of CFTR mutations could be explained by the history of the Reunion Island: admixture of French settlers, African and Asian populations, founder effect and isolation followed by genetic drift. The Y122X allele appears to be associated with a severe phenotype.

Long-range (17.7 kb) allele-specific polymerase chain reaction method for direct haplotyping of R117H and IVS-8 mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator gene.
J Mol Diagn. 2004 Aug;6(3):264-70., [PMID:15269305]
Abstract [show]
Genotyping of genetic polymorphisms is widely used in clinical molecular laboratories to confirm or predict diseases due to single locus mutations. In contrast, very few molecular methods determine the phase or haplotype of two or more mutations that are kilobases apart. In this report, we describe a new method for haplotyping based on long-range allele-specific PCR. Reaction conditions were established to circumvent the incompatibility of using allele-specific primers and a polymerase with proofreading activity. Haplotypes are determined by post-PCR analysis using different detection methods. The clinical application presented here directly determines the phase of two mutations separated by 17.7 kilobases in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene. Each mutation, the missense mutation R117H in exon 4 and the 5T polymorphism in intron 8 (IVS-8), have mild phenotypic effect unless they are present on the same chromosome (in cis). If an individual is heterozygous for both R117H and the IVS-8 5T variant, cis/trans testing is required to completely interpret results. The molecular method presented here bypasses the need to perform family studies to establish haplotypes. We propose use of this assay as a reflex clinical test for R117H- 5T-positive samples.

Pancreatitis in hispanic patients with cystic fibrosis carrying the R334W mutation.
Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2004 Jun;2(6):504-9., [PMID:15181620]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Cystic fibrosis (CF) results from abnormal production of sticky mucus, which obstructs many organs. In most cases, the pancreas is severely compromised, but 10%-15% of patients with CF have pancreas sufficiency (PS) and are subject to develop pancreatitis. The aim of this study is to determine which specific genotypes lead to the development of pancreatitis in patients with CF. METHODS: We used prospective data collected by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and performed a nested case-control study with all patients who reported at least 1 episode of pancreatitis constituting the cases. We used logistic regression to assess the association between pancreatitis and genotype and the Kaplan-Meier method to estimate the cumulative incidence of pancreatitis for selected genotypes. RESULTS: Three hundred sixty-four of 17,871 genotyped patients with CF (2.0%) reported at least 1 episode of pancreatitis. Only 0.9% of 12,997 patients with genotypes generally associated with pancreas insufficiency reported pancreatitis against 11.9% of 868 patients carrying at least 1 mild CF mutation generally associated with PS. The greatest rate of pancreatitis (19.0%) was observed for patients carrying an R334W mutation: 48% of these 79 patients were Hispanic and 13 patients were living in Puerto Rico. CONCLUSIONS: Of all patients with CF, those carrying an R334W mutation have the greatest risk for developing pancreatitis. This mutation is found mostly in Hispanic patients with CF living in Puerto Rico. There are no current data to determine whether asymptomatic carriers of the R334W mutation are at greater risk for developing pancreatitis or whether this mutation is frequent in Hispanics with idiopathic pancreatitis.

Distal intestinal obstruction syndrome in adults with cystic fibrosis.
Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2004 Jun;2(6):498-503., [PMID:15181619]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND & AIMS: With the improved survival of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), gastrointestinal complications become more evident in adults with this condition. The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence and clinical features of distal intestinal obstruction syndrome (DIOS) and its relationship with the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) genotype in an adult CF population. METHODS: Cross-sectional study was conducted in an adult CF cohort. RESULTS: Among 171 adults with CF (mean age, 28.9 years), 27 patients (15.8%) reported 43 episodes of DIOS. No significant association was found between DIOS and a history of meconium ileus. The first episode of DIOS occurred in adulthood in 21 cases (77.8%). DIOS recurred in 13 patients (48.1%). All patients who developed DIOS had pancreatic insufficiency. Pulmonary function was significantly more altered in patients with DIOS than in the other patients, but pancreatic insufficiency and age might act as confounding factors. DIOS occurred in 21.9% of patients with a severe CFTR genotype and in only 2.4% of patients with a mild CFTR genotype (P < 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: DIOS is frequent in adults with CF with a severe CFTR genotype and/or advanced-stage pulmonary disease. The relative contributions of malabsorption and impaired intestinal secretion in the development of DIOS are discussed.

Glucose intolerance in children with cystic fibrosis.
J Pediatr. 2003 Feb;142(2):128-32., [PMID:12584532]
Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relations among glucose intolerance, genotype, and exocrine pancreatic status in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). STUDY DESIGN: Data on 335 patients <18 years of age were from the Toronto CF database. A modified oral glucose tolerance test was given to 94 patients 10 to 18 years of age without recognized CF-related diabetes. CF transmembrane conductance regulator mutations and exocrine pancreatic status were determined for all patients. RESULTS: CF-related diabetes was clinically recognized in 9 of 335 (2.7%) patients <18 years of age, all of whom were pancreatic insufficient, and 8 of 9 had severe (classes I through III) mutations on both alleles. The ninth patient had unidentified mutations. Although all patients given the oral glucose tolerance test were asymptomatic and had normal fasting blood glucose, 16 of 94 (17%) had impaired glucose tolerance and 4 of 94 (4.3%) had CF-related diabetes without fasting hyperglycemia. Abnormal glucose tolerance was associated exclusively with severe mutations and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA(1)C) levels did not correlate with glucose tolerance results. CONCLUSIONS: Screening of pancreatic-insufficient, adolescent patients with CF identified more with abnormal oral glucose tolerance than was suspected clinically and is recommended as a routine practice. HbA(1)C was not useful in screening for CF-related glucose intolerance.

Therapeutic approaches to repair defects in deltaF508 CFTR folding and cellular targeting.
Adv Drug Deliv Rev. 2002 Dec 5;54(11):1395-408., [PMID:12458151]
Abstract [show]
The deltaF508 mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene is the most common mutation in CF. The mutant CFTR protein is defective with respect to multiple functions including cAMP-regulated chloride conductance, nucleotide transport, and regulatory actions on other ion channels. Since the deltaF508 protein is also temperature-sensitive and unstable during translation and folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), most of the nascent chains are targeted for premature proteolysis from the ER. This paper focuses on the events that occur in the ER during folding and reviews potential targets for therapeutic intervention.

Gastroenterology. 2002 Dec;123(6):1857-64., [PMID:12454843]
Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Pancreatitis is known to occur in some patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), but the prevalence, natural history, and genotypic basis are unclear. We examined a well-defined cohort of patients with CF to answer these questions. METHODS: Patients with CF were identified from a computerized database (1966-1996). Chart audit identified all patients with CF and pancreatitis. RESULTS: Among 1075 patients with CF, 937 (87%) were pancreatic insufficient at diagnosis, 28 (3%) were pancreatic sufficient but developed pancreatic insufficiency after diagnosis, and 110 (10%) have remained pancreatic sufficient. No patients with pancreatic insufficiency developed pancreatitis. Nineteen patients (17.3%) with pancreatic sufficiency experienced one or more attacks of pancreatitis. The mean age at diagnosis of pancreatitis was 22.7 +/- 10.3 years (range, 10-35 years), and pancreatitis was recognized before the diagnosis of CF in 6 patients (32%). The diagnosis of CF in pancreatic-sufficient patients, with and without pancreatitis, was established at a significantly older age than in those with pancreatic insufficiency (P < 0.0001). Genotyped patients with pancreatic insufficiency carried 2 severe mutant alleles. All genotyped patients with pancreatic sufficiency and pancreatitis carried at least one mild mutation. No specific genotype was predictive of pancreatitis. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with CF with pancreatic sufficiency carry at least one mild mutant allele and are at a significant risk of developing pancreatitis. Symptoms of pancreatitis may precede the diagnosis of CF. Pancreatitis is associated with an otherwise mild CF phenotype.

Abstract [show]
The discovery of the gene for cystic fibrosis (CF), the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), brought about a new era in the study of this disease. Identification of the molecular target has yielded a flood of data that add to our understanding of the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of CF. The CFTR protein is a cAMP-regulated Cl(-) channel with multiple functions in epithelial cells. In the exocrine pancreas the CFTR plays a key role in the apical Cl(-), HCO(3)(-), and water transport in duct cells. The severe loss of functions, caused by mutations of the CFTR gene, leads to pathological lesions of the pancreas. Over 1200 CFTR mutations and polymorphisms have been identified and their diversity may explain the high level of heterogeneity in the CF phenotype. Mutation analyses of the CFTR gene have revealed a spectrum of CFTR-related diseases that do not fit the classical CF picture but are associated with dysfunction of CFTR, such as chronic pancreatitis.
