Publication Metadata only Unguales plattenepithelkarzinom bei einem patienten mit mal de meleda(Wiley, 2016) Baykal, Can; Sarı, Şule Öztürk; Uyguner, Zehra Oya; Ekinci, Algun Polat; Demir, Özgür; Babuna, Goncagül; Büyükbabani, Nesimi; N/A; Kayserili, Hülya; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; 7945N/APublication Metadata only A homozygous pathogenic missense variant broadens the phenotypic and mutational spectrum of CREB3L1-related osteogenesis imperfecta(Oxford Univ Press, 2019) Guillemyn, Brecht; Demuynck, Lynn; Sips, Patrick; De Paepe, Anne; Syx, Delfien; Coucke, Paul J.; Malfait, Fransiska; Symoens, Sofie; N/A; Kayserili, Hülya; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; 7945The cyclic adenosine monophosphate responsive element binding protein 3-like 1 (CREB3L1) gene codes for the endoplasmic reticulum stress transducer old astrocyte specifically induced substance (OASIS), which has an important role in osteoblast differentiation during bone development. Deficiency of OASIS is linked to a severe form of autosomal recessive osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), but only few patients have been reported. We identified the first homozygous pathogenic missense variant [p.(Ala304Val)] in a patient with lethal OI, which is located within the highly conserved basic leucine zipper domain, four amino acids upstream of the DNA binding domain. In vitro structural modeling and luciferase assays demonstrate that this missense variant affects a critical residue in this functional domain, thereby decreasing the type I collagen transcriptional binding ability. In addition, overexpression of the mutant OASIS protein leads to decreased transcription of the SEC23A and SEC24D genes, which code for components of the coat protein complex type II (COPII), and aberrant OASIS signaling also results in decreased protein levels of SEC24D. Our findings therefore provide additional proof of the potential involvement of the COPII secretory complex in the context of bone-associated disease.Publication Metadata only Functional loss of ubiquitin-specific protease 14 may lead to a novel distal arthrogryposis phenotype(Wiley, 2022) Turgut, Gozde Tutku; Sivrikoz, Tugba Sarac; Toksoy, Guven; Kalayci, Tugba; Karaman, Birsen; Gulec, Cagri; Basaran, Seher; Sayin, Gozde Yesil; Uyguner, Zehra Oya; N/A; N/A; N/A; Altunoğlu, Umut; Avcı, Şahin; Kayserili, Hülya; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; Koç University Hospital; 126174; N/A; 7945Multiple congenital contractures (MCC) comprise a number of rare, non-progressive conditions displaying marked phenotypic and etiologic heterogeneity. A genetic cause can be established in approximately half of the affected individuals, attributed to genetic defects in the formation and functioning of the central and peripheral nervous system, neuromuscular junctions, skeletal muscles, and connective tissue. Ubiquitin-specific protease 14 (USP14) encodes a major proteasome-associated deubiquitinating enzyme with an established dual role as an inhibitor and an activator of proteolysis, maintaining protein homeostasis. Usp14-deficient mice show a phenotype similar to lethal human MCC phenotypes, with callosal anomalies, muscle wasting, and early lethality, attributed to neuromuscular junction defects due to decreased monomeric ubiquitin pool. We describe a new, autosomal recessive MCC phenotype in three fetuses from two different branches of a consanguineous family, presenting with distal arthrogryposis, underdevelopment of the corpus callosum, and dysmorphic facial features. Exome sequencing identified a biallelic 4-bp deletion (c.233_236delTTCC; p.Leu78Glnfs*11, SCV002028347) in USP14, and sequencing of family members showed segregation with the phenotype. RT-qPCR experiment in an unaffected heterozygote revealed that mutant USP14 was expressed, indicating that abnormal transcript escapes nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. We propose that herein described fetuses represent the first human phenotype of USP14 loss, with callosal anomalies and/or cortical malformations, multiple contractures, and recognizable dysmorphic facial features.Publication Metadata only A deleterious recessive mutation in NUAK2 causes absence of brain in humans(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017) Ghosh, Kakaly; Navaratnam, Naveenan; Chan, Puck Wee; Tan, Thong Teck; Ng, Alvin Yu Jin; Tohari, Sumanty; Pomp, Oz; Venkatesh, Byrappa; Altunoglu, Umut; Bonnard, Carine; N/A; Kayserili, Hülya; Reversade, Bruno; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; 7945; 274182N/APublication Metadata only Clinical and molecular findings of seven Turkish nonphotosensitive trichothiodystrophy patients with two novel mutations in MPLKIP(Nature Publishing Group, 2018) Kalayci, T.; Altunoglu, U.; Karaman, B.; Uyguner, Z.; N/A; Kayserili, Hülya; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; 7945N/APublication Metadata only Skeletal and molecular findings in 51 cleidocranial dysplasia patients from Turkey(Wiley, 2021) Berkay, Ezgi Gizem; Elkanova, Leyla; Kalayci, Tugba; Uludag Alkaya, Dilek; Altunoglu, Umut; Cefle, Kivanc; Mihci, Ercan; Nur, Banu; Tasdelen, Elifcan; Bayramoglu, Zuhal; Karaman, Volkan; Toksoy, Guven; Gunes, Nilay; ozturk, Sukru; Palanduz, Sukru; Tuysuz, Beyhan; Uyguner, Zehra Oya; Altunoğlu, Umut; Kayserili, Hülya; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; 126174; 7945Loss or decrease of function in runt-related transcription factor 2 encoded by RUNX2 is known to cause a rare autosomal-dominant skeletal disorder, cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD). Clinical spectrum and genetic findings in 51 CCD patients from 30 unrelated families are herein presented. In a majority of the patients, facial abnormalities, such as delayed fontanel closure (89%), parietal and frontal bossing (80%), metopic groove (77%), midface hypoplasia (94%), and abnormal mobility of shoulders (90%), were recorded following clinical examination. In approximately one-half of the subjects, wormian bone (51%), short stature (43%), bell-shaped thorax (42%), wide pubic symphysis (50%), hypoplastic iliac wing (59%), and chef's hat sign (44%) presented in available radiological examinations. Scoliosis was identified in 28% of the patients. Investigation of RUNX2 revealed small sequence alterations in 90% and gross deletions in 10% of the patients; collectively, 23 variants including 11 novel changes (c.29_30insT, c.203delAinsCG, c.423 + 2delT, c.443_454delTACCAGATGGGAinsG, c.505C > T, c.594_595delCTinsG, c.636_637insC, c.685 + 5G > A, c.1088G > T, c.1281delC, Exon 6-9 deletion) presented high allelic heterogeneity. Novel c.29_30insT is unique in affecting the P1-driven long isoform of RUNX2, which is expected to disrupt the N-terminal region of RUNX2; this was shown in two unrelated phenotypically discordant patients. The clinical findings highlighted mild intra-familial genotype-phenotype correlation in our CCD cohort.Publication Metadata only A multidisciplinary clinical approach to facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy orthopedic surgery in facioscapulohumeral dystrophy(Literatura Medica, 2018) N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; Çakmak, Özgür Öztop; Eren, İlker; Aslanger, Ayça Dilruba; Günerbüyük, Caner; Kayserili, Hülya; Oflazer, Piraye; Şar, Cüneyt; Demirhan, Mehmet; Özdemir, Yasemin Gürsoy; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Doctor; Teaching Faculty; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Doctor; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; N/A; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; Koc University Hospital; 107818; 168021; N/A; 380939; 7945; N/A; N/A; 9882; 170592Background - Impaired shoulder function is the most disabling problem for daily life of Fascioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) patients. Scapulothoracic arthrodesis can give a high impact to the functionality of patients. Here we report our experience with scapulothoracic arthrodesis and spinal stenosis surgery in FSHD patients. Patients and methods - 32 FSHD patients were collected between 2015-2016. Demographical and clinical features were documented. All the patients were neurologically examined. The Medical Research Council (MRC) and the FSHD evaluation scale was used to assess muscle involvement(1). Scapulothoracic arthrodesis and spinal stenosis surgeries were performed in eligible patients. Results - There were 16 male and 16 female (mean age 34.4 years; range 12-73) patients. 6 shoulders of 4 patients aged between 2132 years underwent scapulothoracic arthrodesis (two bilateral, one left and one right sided). Only one 63 years old female patient with severe hyperlordosis had spinal fusion surgery. All of the patients undergoing these corrective surgeries have better functionality in daily life, as well as superior shoulder elevation. Conclusion - Until the emergence and clinical use of novel therapeutics, surgical interventions are indicated in carefully selected patients with FSHD to improve arm movements, the posture and the quality of life of patients in general. Scapulothorosic arthrodesis is a management with good clinical results and patient satisfaction. In selected cases other corrective orthopedic surgeries like spinal fusion may also be considered.Publication Metadata only A rare cause of chronic hyponatremia in an infant: aldosterone synthase type-2 deficiency(Springer, 2018) Güran, Tülay; Yeşiltepe Mutlu, Rahime Gül; Taşdemir, Mehmet; Kızılkan, Nuray Uslu; Börklü Yücel, Esra; Hatun, Şükrü; Kayserili, Hülya; Bilge, İlmay; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; School of Medicine; 153511; N/A; 221274; N/A; 153504; 7945; 198907N/APublication Metadata only Loss of Iroquois homeobox transcription factors 3 and 5 in osteoblasts disrupts cranial mineralization(Elsevier, 2016) Cain, Corey J.; Gaborit, Nathalie; Lwin, Wint; Barruet, Emilie; Ho, Samantha; Bonnard, Carine; Hamamy, Hanan; Shboul, Mohammad; Reversade, Bruno; Bruneau, Benoit G.; Hsiao, Edward C.; N/A; Kayserili, Hülya; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; 7945Cranial malformations are a significant cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Iroquois homeobox transcription factors (IRX) are expressed early in bone tissue formation and facilitate patterning and mineralization of the skeleton. Mice lacking Irx5 appear grossly normal, suggesting that redundancy within the Iroquois family. However, global loss of both Irx3 and Irx5 in mice leads to significant skeletal malformations and embryonic lethality from cardiac defects. Here, we study the bone-specific functions of Irx3 and Irx5 using Osx-Cre to drive osteoblast lineage–specific deletion of Irx3 in Irx5−/− mice. Although we found that the Osx-Cre transgene alone could also affect craniofacial mineralization, newborn Irx3flox/flox/Irx5−/−/Osx-Cre+ mice displayed additional mineralization defects in parietal, interparietal, and frontal bones with enlarged sutures and reduced calvarial expression of osteogenic genes. Newborn endochondral long bones were largely unaffected, but we observed marked reductions in 3–4-week old bone mineral content of Irx3flox/flox/Irx5−/−/Osx-Cre+ mice. Our findings indicate that IRX3 and IRX5 can work together to regulate mineralization of specific cranial bones. Our results also provide insight into the causes of the skeletal changes and mineralization defects seen in Hamamy syndrome patients carrying mutations in IRX5Publication Metadata only Mutation update for Kabuki syndrome genes KMT2D and KDM6A and further delineation of X-linked Kabuki syndrome subtype 2(Wiley, 2016) Boegershausen, Nina; Gatinois, Vincent; Riehmer, Vera; Becker, Jutta; Thoenes, Michaela; Simsek-Kiper, Pelin OEzlem; Barat-Houari, Mouna; Elcioglu, Nursel H.; Wieczorek, Dagmar; Tinschert, Sigrid; Sarrabay, Guillaume; Strom, Tim M.; Fabre, Aurelie; Baynam, Gareth; Sanchez, Elodie; Nuernberg, Gudrun; Altunoglu, Umut; Capri, Yline; Isidor, Bertrand; Lacombe, Didier; Corsini, Carole; Cormier-Daire, Valerie; Sanlaville, Damien; Giuliano, Fabienne; Le Quan Sang, Kim-Hanh; Kayirangwa, Honorine; Nuernberg, Peter; Meitinger, Thomas; Boduroglu, Koray; Zoll, Barbara; Lyonnet, Stanislas; Tzschach, Andreas; Verloes, Alain; Di Donato, Nataliya; Touitou, Isabelle; Netzer, Christian; Li, Yun; Genevieve, David; Yigit, Goekhan; Wollnik, Bernd; N/A; Kayserili, Hülya; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; 7945Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare but recognizable condition that consists of a characteristic face, short stature, various organ malformations, and a variable degree of intellectual disability. Mutations in KMT2D have been identified as the main cause for KS, whereas mutations in KDM6A are a much less frequent cause. Here, we report a mutation screening in a case series of 347 unpublished patients, in which we identified 12 novel KDM6A mutations (KS type 2) and 208 mutations in KMT2D (KS type 1), 132 of them novel. Two of the KDM6A mutations were maternally inherited and nine were shown to be de novo. We give an up-to-date overview of all published mutations for the two KS genes and point out possible mutation hot spots and strategies for molecular genetic testing. We also report the clinical details for 11 patients with KS type 2, summarize the published clinical information, specifically with a focus on the less well-defined X-linked KS type 2, and comment on phenotype–genotype correlations as well as sex-specific phenotypic differences. Finally, we also discuss a possible role of KDM6A in Kabuki-like Turner syndrome and report a mutation screening of KDM6C (UTY) in male KS patients.
