Identification of novel germline mutations in FUT7 and EXT1 linked with hereditary multiple exostoses.
Hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) is an autosomal dominant skeletal disorder primarily linked with mutations in Exostosin-1 (EXT1) and Exostosin-2 (EXT2) genes. However, not all HME cases can be explained by these mutations, and its pathogenic mechanisms are not fully understood. Herein, utilizing whole-exome sequencing and genetic screening with a family trio design, we identify two novel rare mutations co-segregating with HME in a Chinese family, including a nonsense mutation (c.204G>A, p.Trp68*) in EXT1 and a missense mutation (c.893T>G, p.Phe298Cys) in FUT7. Functional assays reveal that the FUT7 mutation affects the cellular localization of FUT7 protein and regulates cell proliferation. Notably, the simultaneous loss of fut7 and ext1 in a zebrafish model results in severe chondrodysplasia, indicating a functional link between FUT7 and EXT1 in chondrocyte regulation. Additionally, we unveil that FUT7 p.Phe298Cys reduces EXT1 expression through IL6/STAT3/SLUG axis at the transcription level and through ubiquitination-related proteasomal degradation at the protein level. Together, our findings not only identify novel germline mutations in FUT7 and EXT1 genes, but also highlight the critical interaction between these genes, suggesting a potential 'second-hit' mechanism over EXT1 mutations in HME pathogenesis. This insight enhances our understanding of the mechanisms underlying HME and opens new avenues for potential therapeutic interventions.
期刊介绍:
Oncogene is dedicated to advancing our understanding of cancer processes through the publication of exceptional research. The journal seeks to disseminate work that challenges conventional theories and contributes to establishing new paradigms in the etio-pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of cancers. Emphasis is placed on research shedding light on processes driving metastatic spread and providing crucial insights into cancer biology beyond existing knowledge.
Areas covered include the cellular and molecular biology of cancer, resistance to cancer therapies, and the development of improved approaches to enhance survival. Oncogene spans the spectrum of cancer biology, from fundamental and theoretical work to translational, applied, and clinical research, including early and late Phase clinical trials, particularly those with biologic and translational endpoints.
