摘要: 目的 增加对DMRT1基因单倍体不足导致性发育异常的认识,提高性发育异常疾病的诊断水平。 方法 描述1例染色体为46XY性发育异常患者的临床特点;对患者及其父母的静脉血进行淋巴细胞培养和染色体核型分析;抽取患者外周血,提取基因组DNA,进行微阵列比较基因组杂交技术(aCGH)扫描。结果 1)患者表现为女性外阴,超声未见子宫和卵巢组织;伴随发育延迟和运动迟缓;临床表现符合“9p缺失综合征”; 2)染色体结果:患者母亲46XX,t(7;9)(q35, p24);父亲46XY; 患儿46XY,der(9)t(7;9)(q35,p24); 3)aCGH扫描结果:患儿第7号染色体长臂部分位置(144741153-159098761)重复,长约14.37Mb;第9号染色体短臂部分(10001-9733061)缺失,长约9.72Mb,缺失部分包含EZH2、MNX1、 DMRT1、 DMRT2、 SHH、SMARCA2、GLDC、VLDLR、DOCK8和GLIS3基因;结论 DMRT1在性腺发育过程中发挥重要作用。母亲染色体发生平衡易位,因无遗传物质丢失,故不导致疾病发生。在产生配体过程中,因DMRT1单倍体剂量不足,导致子代睾丸发育障碍。

Abstract: Objective: To increase the knowledge on disorders of sex development (DSD) caused by DMRT1 haploinsufficiency. Methods: Clinical features in a patient with 46XY DSD were described. Peripheral lymphocytic karyotype was measured in this patient and her parents. Furthermore, array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) was done to the patient. Results: (1) Clinical features: the patient presented with female genital, and neither uterus nor ovaries were detected by B ultrasound. Mental and physical development retardation was observed, consisted with the manifestation of 9p deletion syndrome. (2) Karyotype: Her mother was 46XX,t(7;9)(q35,p24); Her father was 46XY; The patient was 46XY, der(9) t(7;9) (q35,p24); (3) aCGH scan: 14.37Mb triplication was fond in the terminal of 7q (144741153-159098761); 9.72Mb deletion was found in the terminal of 9p (10001-9733061), containing the following genes, EZH2, MNX1, DMRT1, DMRT2, SHH, SMARCA2, GLDC, VLDLR, DOCK8 and GLIS3; Conclusions: DMRT1 gene plays an essential role in gonadal development. Haploinsufficiency in this gene may result in testicular dysplasia and DSD.
