Serum zinc concentrations in cystic fibrosis patients aged above 4 years: a cross-sectional evaluation.
Biol Trace Elem Res. 2007 Oct;119(1):19-26., [PMID:17914215]

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.

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.

Spectrum of CFTR mutations in cystic fibrosis and in congenital absence of the vas deferens in France.
Hum Mutat. 2000;16(2):143-56., [PMID:10923036]

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.

Identification of common cystic fibrosis mutations in African-Americans with cystic fibrosis increases the detection rate to 75%.
Am J Hum Genet. 1997 May;60(5):1122-7., [PMID:9150159]

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF)--an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and characterized by abnormal chloride conduction across epithelial membranes, leading to chronic lung and exocrine pancreatic disease--is less common in African-Americans than in Caucasians. No large-scale studies of mutation identification and screening in African-American CF patients have been reported, to date. In this study, the entire coding and flanking intronic sequence of the CFTR gene was analyzed by denaturing gradient-gel electrophoresis and sequencing in an index group of 82 African-American CF chromosomes to identify mutations. One novel mutation, 3120+1G-->A, occurred with a frequency of 12.3% and was also detected in a native African patient. To establish frequencies, an additional group of 66 African-American CF chromosomes were screened for mutations identified in two or more African-American patients. Screening for 16 "common Caucasian" mutations identified 52% of CF alleles in African-Americans, while screening for 8 "common African" mutations accounted for an additional 23%. The combined detection rate of 75% was comparable to the sensitivity of mutation analysis in Caucasian CF patients. These results indicate that African-Americans have their own set of "common" CF mutations that originate from the native African population. Inclusion of these "common" mutations substantially improves CF mutation detection rates in African-Americans.

Abstract [show]
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene of 600 unrelated cystic fibrosis (CF) patients living in France (excluding Brittany) was screened for 105 different mutations. This analysis resulted in the identification of 86% of the CF alleles and complete genotyping of 76% of the patients. The most frequent mutations in this population after delta F508 (69% of the CF chromosomes) are G542X (3.3%), N1303K (1.8%), W1282X (1.5%), 1717-1G-->A (1.3%), 2184delA + 2183 A-->G (0.9%), and R553X (0.8%).

Molecular characterization of cystic fibrosis: 16 novel mutations identified by analysis of the whole cystic fibrosis conductance transmembrane regulator (CFTR) coding regions and splice site junctions.
Genomics. 1992 Jul;13(3):770-6., [PMID:1379210]

Abstract [show]
The spectrum of cystic fibrosis (CF) mutations was determined in 105 patients by using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis to screen the entire coding regions and adjacent cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene sequences. The nucleotide substitutions detected included 16 novel mutations, 11 previously described defects, and 11 nucleotide sequence polymorphisms. Among the novel mutations, 6 were of the missense type, 4 were nonsense mutations, 4 were frameshift defects, and 2 affected mRNA splicing. The mutations involved all the CFTR domains, including the R domain. Of the 61 non-delta F508 CF chromosomes studied, mutations were found on 36 (59%), raising the proportion of CF alleles characterized in our patient cohort to 88%. Given the efficacy of the screening method used, the remaining uncharacterized mutations probably lie in DNA sequences outside the regions studied, e.g., upstream-promoter sequences, the large introns, or putative regulatory regions. Our results further document the highly heterogeneous nature of CF mutations and provide the information required for DNA-based genetic testing.

Three point mutations in the CFTR gene in French cystic fibrosis patients: identification by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis.
Hum Genet. 1990 Sep;85(4):446-9., [PMID:2210768]

Abstract [show]
The cystic fibrosis (CF) gene was recently identified as a gene spanning 250 kilobases (kbp) and coding for a 1480 amino acid protein, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Approximately 70% of CF mutations involve a three-base-pair deletion in CFTR exon 10, resulting in the loss of a phenylalanine at position 508 in the gene product (delta F508). In order to screen for other molecular defects, we have used a strategy based on denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-amplified gene segments. This method, which permits rapid detection of any sequence change in a given DNA stretch, was used successfully to analyse 61 non-delta F508 CF chromosomes from French CF patients. A study of CFTR exons 10, 11, 14a, 15 and 20 detected three mutations located in exons 14a, 15 and 20, along with several nucleotide sequence polymorphisms. These nucleotide changes were identified by direct sequencing of PCR fragments displaying altered electrophoretic behaviour, together with some of the polymorphisms and mutations previously characterized by others. The strategy presented here constitutes a valuable tool for the development of carrier testing for individuals or couples with a family history of cystic fibrosis, and will contribute to deciphering the functionally important regions of the CFTR gene.

Simultaneous screening for 11 mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene by multiplex amplification and reverse dot-blot.
Mol Cell Probes. 1992 Feb;6(1):33-9., [PMID:1372093]

Abstract [show]
An assay is described in which 11 mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene can be screened simultaneously. Six different exons of the CFTR gene are amplified in a single multiplex amplification. Biotinylated dUTP is incorporated into the different fragments during the amplification process. A sample of this mixture is then hybridized to 21 different poly-dT tailed oligonucleotide probes which are bound to a nylon membrane. In order to screen the different mutations in a single step hybridization, the length of the different oligonucleotides and the amount used in the assay were optimized. The detection is performed by binding avidin-alkaline phosphatase to the biotin, followed by a chemiluminescent reaction. By means of this fast and sensitive assay, about 85% of all the cystic fibrosis mutations in the Belgian population can be detected.
