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.

Identification of the second CFTR mutation in patients with congenital bilateral absence of vas deferens undergoing ART protocols.
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%.

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]
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]
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.

Abstract [show]
INTRODUCTION: Cystic fibrosis is the most common autosomal recessive genetic disease in the Caucasian population. Extending knowledge about the molecular pathology on the one hand allows better delineation of the mutations in the CFTR gene and the other to dramatically increase the predictive power of molecular testing. METHODS: This study reports the results of a molecular screening of cystic fibrosis using DNA samples of patients enrolled from January 2009 to December 2013. Patients were referred to our laboratory for cystic fibrosis screening for infertile couples. In addition, we identified the gene mutations present in 76 patients affected by cystic fibrosis in the pediatric population of Basilicata. RESULTS: In the 964 infertile couples examined, 132 subjects (69 women and 63 men) resulted heterozygous for one of the CFTR mutations, with a recurrence of carriers of 6.85%. The recurrence of carriers in infertile couples is significantly higher from the hypothetical value of the general population (4%). CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that in the Basilicata region of Italy the CFTR phenotype is caused by a small number of mutations. Our aim is to develop a kit able to detect not less than 96% of CTFR gene mutations so that the relative risk for screened couples is superimposable with respect to the general population.

[hide] Mutation analysis of PRSS1, SPINK1 and CFTR gene i... Turk J Gastroenterol. 2015 Mar;26(2):176-80. doi: 10.5152/tjg.2015.4287. Sisman G, Tugcu M, Ayla K, Sebati O, Senturk H
Mutation analysis of PRSS1, SPINK1 and CFTR gene in patients with alcoholic and idiopathic chronic pancreatitis: A single center study.
Turk J Gastroenterol. 2015 Mar;26(2):176-80. doi: 10.5152/tjg.2015.4287., [PMID:25835118]

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND/AIMS: A relation between some genetic mutations and chronic pancreatitis (CP) has been reported. However, the relation of genetic mutation to alcoholic CP (ACP) and idiopathic CP (ICP) still remains controversial. In this study, we investigated the prevalence of protease serine 1 (PRSS1), serine protease inhibitor, Kazal type 1 (SPINK1) SPINK1 and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations in ACP and ICP patients in Turkey. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-one patients with ACP and 38 patients with ICP were enrolled, and 35 healthy individuals served as controls. The PRSS1 and SPINK1 mutations were investigated by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment-length polymorphism (RFLP) technique. The CFTR mutation was examined with PCR direct sequencing. RESULTS: The mean ages of the ACP, ICP and healthy control groups were 53.2, 40.4 and 46.3 years, respectively. A CFTR F508 mutation was detected as a heterozygote in one (2.4%) patient with ACP. In the ICP and control populations, PRSS1, SPINK1 and CFTR mutations were not detected. CONCLUSION: This study shows that PRSS1, SPINK1 and CFTR mutations do not play a role in ACP and ICP patients.
