摘要
To explore the clinical, biochemical and genetic characteristics of three children with Isoleucine metabolic disorders due to variants of HSD17B10 and ACAT1 genes.Two children with 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 10 (HSD17B10) deficiency and a child with β-ketothiolase deficiency (BKD) diagnosed at Shanghai Children's Hospital between 2014 and 2021 were selected as the study subjects. Clinical data of the children were collected. The children were subjected to blood acylcarnitine, urinary organic acid and genetic testing, and candidate variants were analyzed with bioinformatic tools.The main symptoms of the three children had included epilepsy, developmental delay, hypotonia and acidosis. Their blood acylcarnitine methylcrotonyl carnitine (C5:1), 3-hydroxyisovalerylcarnitine (C5-OH) and 3-hydroxybutylcarnitine (C4OH) were increased to various extents, and urine organic acids including methyl crotonylglycine and 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyric acid were significantly increased. Child 1 and child 2 were respectively found to harbor a c.347G>A (p.R116Q) variant and a c.274G>A (p.A92T) variant of the HSD17B10 gene, and child 3 was found to harbor compound heterozygous variants of the ACAT1 gene, namely c.547G>A (p.G183R) and a c.331G>C (p.A111P). Among these, the c.274G>A (p.A92T) and c.331G>C (p.A111P) variants were unreported previously. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), they were respectively classified as variant of unknown significance (PP3_Strong+PM2_supporting) and likely pathogenic (PM3+PM2_Supporting+PP3_Moderate+PP4).Both the HSD17B10 deficiency and BKD can lead to Isoleucine metabolism disorders, which may be difficult to distinguish clinically. Genetic testing can further confirm the diagnosis. Discoveries of the HSD17B10: c.274G>A (p.A92T) variant and the ACAT1: c.331G>C (p.A111P) variant have enriched the mutational spectrum of the two diseases.
