Hydrocephalus has not been considered part of BAFopathy until recently, when <em>ARID1A</em> variants were implicated in prenatal-onset hydrocephalus. It remains unknown whether <em>ARID1A</em>-associated hydrocephalus is linked to a specific class of variants and whether it exhibits an episignature comparable to that of BAFopathies. We conducted genomic and epigenomic analyses on a fetus diagnosed with severe hydrocephalus on prenatal ultrasound at 19 weeks. After detailed genetic counseling, the pregnancy was terminated at 21 weeks. The delivered fetus exhibited short fifth fingers, thin upper lip, and thick lower lip.

The frameshift variant in the last exon was expected to escape nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), and we did confirm this through RNA-seq.

Genotype-phenotype correlation analysis of unpublished data from previous reports regarding hydrocephalus and potential NMD escape, with input from the original authors, indicated that the association remains ambiguous.

It is characterized by congenital muscle hypotonia, muscle atrophy, and age-related improvement. We report the first detailed adult patient of mEDS with a novel compound heterozygous <em>COL12A1</em> variant, complicated by Chiari I malformation and hydrocephalus. The patient presented with neonatal hypotonia, delayed motor milestones, scoliosis, and joint hypermobility, yet achieved independent ambulation. Muscle biopsy and immunostaining revealed markedly decreased levels of collagen XII. RNA sequencing demonstrated near absence of the long isoform and residual expression of the short isoform, potentially underlying the patient's clinical improvement. This is the first report to clarify the mechanism of preserved motor function in mEDS using RNA sequencing and immunostaining. Chiari I malformations may help distinguish mEDS from <em>COL6</em>-related disorders.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11916,"journal":{"name":"European journal of medical genetics","volume":"78 ","pages":"Article 105057"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145412762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
