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.

A short segment of the R domain of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator contains channel stimulatory and inhibitory activities that are separable by sequence modification.
J Biol Chem. 2002 Jun 21;277(25):23019-27. Epub 2002 Apr 11., 2002-06-21 [PMID:11950844]

Abstract [show]
The regulatory (R) domain of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) contains consensus phosphorylation sites for cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) that are the basis for physiological regulation of the CFTR chloride channel. A short peptide segment in the R domain with a net negative charge of B9 (amino acids 817-838, NEG2) and predicted helical tendency is shown to play a critical role in CFTR chloride channel function. Deletion of NEG2 from CFTR completely eliminates the PKA dependence of channel activity. Exogenous NEG2 peptide interacts with CFTR to exert both stimulatory and inhibitory effects on the channel function. The NEG2 peptide with sequence scrambled to remove helical tendencies also inhibits channel function, but does not stimulate. Similar results are found for a NEG2 peptide whose helical structure is disrupted by a proline residue. When six of the negatively charged carboxylic acid residues are replaced by their cognate amides, reducing net negative charge to B3, but increasing helical propensity as assessed by circular dichroism, the peptide stimulates CFTR channel function, but does not inhibit. We speculate that the NEG2 region interacts with other cytosolic domains of CFTR to control opening and closing transitions of the chloride channel.

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.
Am J Med Genet. 2002 Jun 15;110(2):109-15., 2002-06-15 [PMID:12116247]

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.

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.

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.

Independent contribution of common CFTR variants to chronic pancreatitis.
Pancreas. 2010 Mar;39(2):209-15., [PMID:19812525]

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVE: We have assessed whether CFTR gene has a major impact on chronic pancreatitis (CP) pathogenesis than that provided by the CFTR mutations. For this aim, we have evaluated clinical parameters, CFTR mutations, and 3 potential regulatory CFTR variants (coding single-nucleotide polymorphisms): c.1540A>G, c.2694T>G, and c.4521G>A. METHODS: CFTR gene analysis was performed in a cohort of 136 CP patients and 93 controls from Spanish population using current scanning techniques (single-strand conformation polymorphism/heteroduplex, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, and denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography) and direct sequencing. RESULTS: A higher frequency of CFTR mutations were observed in patients (39%) than in controls (15%; P < or = 0.001), differences being mostly attributable to the prevalence of the cystic fibrosis (CF)-causing mutations (P = 0.009). The analysis of variants has shown statistically significant differences between patients and controls for c.4521G>A (Pcorrected = 0.036). Furthermore, the multi-marker analysis revealed that the 1540A;2694G;4521A (AGA) haplotype was more prevalent in CP than controls (Pcorrected = 0.042). Remarkably, this association was unrelated to CF-causing mutations (P = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS: Our results corroborate the higher susceptibility of CF carriers to CP and, furthermore, suggest that the AGA haplotype could contribute to an increased risk in the development of CP irrespective of other CF-causing mutations.

State-dependent regulation of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gating by a high affinity Fe3+ bridge between the regulatory domain and cytoplasmic loop 3.
J Biol Chem. 2010 Dec 24;285(52):40438-47. Epub 2010 Oct 15., 2010-12-24 [PMID:20952391]

Abstract [show]
The unique regulatory (R) domain differentiates the human CFTR channel from other ATP-binding cassette transporters and exerts multiple effects on channel function. However, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, an intracellular high affinity (2.3 x 10(-19) M) Fe(3+) bridge is reported as a novel approach to regulating channel gating. It inhibited CFTR activity by primarily reducing an open probability and an opening rate, and inhibition was reversed by EDTA and phenanthroline. His-950, His-954, Cys-832, His-775, and Asp-836 were found essential for inhibition and phosphorylated Ser-768 may enhance Fe(3+) binding. More importantly, inhibition by Fe(3+) was state-dependent. Sensitivity to Fe(3+) was reduced when the channel was locked in an open state by AMP-PNP. Similarly, a K978C mutation from cytoplasmic loop 3 (CL3), which promotes ATP-independent channel opening, greatly weakened inhibition by Fe(3+) no matter whether NBD2 was present or not. Therefore, although ATP binding-induced dimerization of NBD1-NBD2 is required for channel gating, regulation of CFTR activity by Fe(3+) may involve an interaction between the R domain and CL3. These findings may support proximity of the R domain to the cytoplasmic loops. They also suggest that Fe(3+) homeostasis may play a critical role in regulating pathophysiological CFTR activity because dysregulation of this protein causes cystic fibrosis, secretary diarrhea, and infertility.

In order to definitively define the involvement of the CFTR gene in spermatogenic impairment and a potential synergistic contribution to known genetic and clinical factors, genetic variants in the entire coding sequence and the immediately flanking regions of the CFTR gene, along with a thorough clinical evaluation, were analysed in 83 NOb infertile patients and 87 clinically well-defined fertile individuals as controls. The results of our study showed no statistical difference between CFTR carrier frequency in the infertile and fertile population. Specifically, the IVS8-6(5T) allele carrier frequency was similar in NOb infertile patients when compared with fertile men, but it is noteworthy that, when fertile men were classified into having optimal and suboptimal fertility, no 5T allele was found among the 35 men with optimal fertility parameters. In conclusion, extensive CFTR analysis in infertile individuals and fertile population as adequate control definitively excludes the involvement of the CFTR gene variants in sperm production and stresses the importance of carefully identifying those individuals with obstructive defects, in whom CFTR screening will be beneficial.

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.

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).

Abstract [show]
We have collated the results of cystic fibrosis (CF) mutation analysis conducted in 19 laboratories in France. We have analyzed 7, 420 CF alleles, demonstrating a total of 310 different mutations including 24 not reported previously, accounting for 93.56% of CF genes. The most common were F508del (67.18%; range 61-80), G542X (2.86%; range 1-6.7%), N1303K (2.10%; range 0.75-4.6%), and 1717-1G>A (1.31%; range 0-2.8%). Only 11 mutations had relative frequencies >0. 4%, 140 mutations were found on a small number of CF alleles (from 29 to two), and 154 were unique. These data show a clear geographical and/or ethnic variation in the distribution of the most common CF mutations. This spectrum of CF mutations, the largest ever reported in one country, has generated 481 different genotypes. We also investigated a cohort of 800 French men with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) and identified a total of 137 different CFTR mutations. Screening for the most common CF defects in addition to assessment for IVS8-5T allowed us to detect two mutations in 47.63% and one in 24.63% of CBAVD patients. In a subset of 327 CBAVD men who were more extensively investigated through the scanning of coding/flanking sequences, 516 of 654 (78. 90%) alleles were identified, with 15.90% and 70.95% of patients carrying one or two mutations, respectively, and only 13.15% without any detectable CFTR abnormality. The distribution of genotypes, classified according to the expected effect of their mutations on CFTR protein, clearly differed between both populations. CF patients had two severe mutations (87.77%) or one severe and one mild/variable mutation (11.33%), whereas CBAVD men had either a severe and a mild/variable (87.89%) or two mild/variable (11.57%) mutations.

Increased incidence of cystic fibrosis gene mutations in adults with disseminated bronchiectasis.
Hum Mol Genet. 1995 Apr;4(4):635-9., [PMID:7543317]

Abstract [show]
In order to identify a possible hereditary predisposition to the development of obstructive pulmonary disease of unknown origin, we have looked for the presence of Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator (CFTR) gene mutations in unrelated patients with no signs of Cystic Fibrosis (CF). We screened for 70 common mutations, and also for rare mutations by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analysis. In this search, different CFTR gene mutations (R75Q, delta F508, R1066C, M1137V and 3667ins4) were found in five out of 16 adult Italian patients with disseminated bronchiectasis, a significant increase over the expected frequency of carriers. Moreover, three rare CFTR gene DNA polymorphisms (G576A, R668C, and 2736 A-->G), not deemed to be the cause of CF, were found in two patients, one of which was a compound heterozygote with R1066C. These results indicate that CFTR gene mutations, and perhaps also DNA polymorphisms, may be involved in the etiopathogenesis of at least some cases of bronchiectasis.

Definition of a "functional R domain" of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator.
Mol Genet Metab. 2000 Sep-Oct;71(1-2):245-9., [PMID:11001817]

Abstract [show]
The R domain of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) was originally defined as 241 amino acids, encoded by exon 13. Such exon/intron boundaries provide a convenient way to define the R domain, but do not necessarily reflect the corresponding functional domain within CFTR. A two-domain model was later proposed based on a comparison of the R-domain sequences from 10 species. While RD1, the N-terminal third of the R domain is highly conserved, RD2, the large central region of the R domain has less rigid structural requirements. Although this two-domain model was given strong support by recent functional analysis data, the simple observation that two of the four main phosphorylation sites are excluded from RD2 clearly indicates that RD2 still does not satisfy the requirements of a "functional R domain." Nevertheless, knowledge of the CFTR structure and function accumulated over the past decade and reevaluated in the context of a comprehensive sequence comparison of 15 CFTR homologues made it possible to define such a "functional R domain," i.e., amino acids C647 to D836. This definition is validated primarily because it contains all of the important potential consensus phosphorylation sequences. In addition, it includes the highly charged motif from E822 to D836. Finally, it includes all of the deletions/insertions in this region. This definition also aids in understanding the effects of missense mutations occurring within this domain.
