      Case#:Patient 52, female, 3 years old

      DiseaseAssertion:Neonatal/Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy (NIEE)

      FamilyInfo:DeNovo. The family is Chinese

      ParentalGenotype:The authors only conducted singleton and not trio-based exome sequencing so the parents' exomes were not sequenced.

      CaseHPOFreeText:Patient 52 presents with severe global developmental delay and epilepsy.

      Patient 52 has generalized tonic/clonic/tonic-clonic seizures, focal seizures and spasms. Patient 52's seizure onset occurred at 3 months old.

      Patient 52 has cortical visual impairment (CVI), dystonia, chorea, and hand-washing sterotypies.

      Patient History

      @ 3 months - Patient 52 had generalized tonic/clonic/tonic-clonic seizures.

      Patient 52 was on 3 antiepileptic drugs at most recent follow-up visit which reduced seizure frequency by >50%.

      CasePreviousTesting:The authors selected a cohort of 31 patients with seizure cryptogenic Neonatal/Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy (NIEE) and seizure onset before 24 months.

      Exclusion criteria included: (1) Patients with a definite history of brain insult, malformation of cortical development, neurocutaneous and syndromal disorders, and confirmed or highly suspected neurometabolic disorders based on clinical and biochemical markers. (2) Patients with Dravet syndrome and epilepsy at infancy with migrating focal seizure were also excluded because the majority of variants are detected in the SCN1A (>85%) and KCNT1 (approximately 50%) genes.

      Formal neuropsychological testing or best clinical assessment was used to classify patient development or intelligence.

      PreviouslyPublished:Not previously published

      GenotypingMethod:Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) variant results were filtered in a panel of 430 epilepsy-associated genes. After selection of variants from the 430-gene panel, the synonymous variants, variants with variant frequency <10%, and variants with allele frequency >1% were removed.

      Gene:CDKL5

      Variant:NM_003159.2 c. 1849delC (p. Arg617Valfs*4)

      The authors state that the variant is a heterozygous frameshift deletion.

      The authors state that this is a novel variant and is pathogenic.

      Case:Patient 1, female, 11 years old

      DiseaseAssertion:Rett Syndrome - Atypical Variant

      FamilyInfo:De Novo. Patient 1's parents were healthy. When Patient 1 was clinically examined, the head circumferences of her mother and father were 53 cm (P25) and 59 cm (P90), respectively. The parents had normal weight.

      ParentalGenotype:Both parents were sequenced for Patient 1's mutation, and the deletion was not detected.

      CaseHPOFreeText:

      Patient history

      @ birth - Patient 1 was born at 38 weeks of gestation after an uncomplicated pregnancy. Her weight was 3,390 g (P69), height 51 cm (P60), and her head circumference was 36 cm (P90).

      @ 6 months - Patient 1 experienced developmental delay.

      @ 9 months - Patient 1 sat without support.

      @ 2 years - Patient 1 began to walk.

      @ later on - Patient 1 presented with speech delay and behavioral disturbances. The behavioral disturbances were reduced by the drug risperidone.

      @ early childhood - Patient 1 has been obese and appeared to display hyperphagia.

      @ 8 years - Patient 1 developed precocious puberty.

      @ 10 years - Patient 1 had her first epileptic seizure. Treatment with lamotrigine prevented further seizures. The seizures later became refractory to this treatment.

      @ 10 years - Patient 1 presented with a height of 160 cm (P>97) and a head circumference of 59 cm (P>97). She had hypertelorism and prominent eyebrows. Her nasal bridge was broad and auricles were fleshy. In addition, Patient 1's neck was short and the fingers were short and wide.

      Patient 1 has an intellectual disability, metabolic syndrome, and macrocephaly.

      CaseNotHPOs:HP:0002540.

      CaseNotHPOFreeText:Patient 1 sat without support at 9 months old. She walked at 2 years.

      CasePreviousTesting:Patient 1 was given a conventional cytogenetic analysis. The chromosomal analyses (46,XX) and array CGH results (BlueGnome CytoChip ISCA 4×180K v1.0; Agilent Human Genome CGH Microarray 180K) were normal. Patient 1 was also given a methylation-specific MLPA to exclude a Temple syndrome, which is also characterized by weight gain and precocious puberty. In addition, Prader-Willi syndrome was ruled out by methylation testing. This syndrome is another imprinting disease causing obesity and intellectual disability.

      PreviouslyPublished:Not previously published

      GenotypingMethod:Whole-exome sequencing analysis of the entire exome was conducted for Patient 1. Whole-genome sequencing showed heterozygosity in Patient 1, which was confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Macrocephalic syndrome genes including PTEN, NSD1, NFIX, SETBP1, RAI1, and PHF6 were analyzed, and no additional variants of interest (pathogenic, likely pathogenic, or variants of uncertain significance) were observed.

      Gene:MECP2

      CasePreviousTesting: The percentage of transendocytosis using either CD80-GFP or CD80-mScarlet CHO cells was determined in eight LRBA-deficient patients. No difference in the percentage of transendocytosis was observed between CTLA4-variant carriers (GFP median=5.4%; mScarlet median= 49.8%) and LRBA-deficient patients (GFP median=9.9%; mScarlet median, 48.6%). However, significantly lower percentages of transendocytosis were observed in LRBA-deficient patients compared to healthy donors (HD) when using CD80-mScarlet CHO cells (median, 48.6% vs. 65.5% in HD) (Fig. ​(Fig.4e),4e). This difference was not observed with CD80-GFP CHO cells (patients median of 9.9% in patients vs. 13.9% in HD). In conclusion, the CTLA4 transendocytosis method using CD80-mScarlet CHO cells enables the functional verification of LRBA deficiency, but it cannot differentiate between LRBA deficiency and CTLA4 insufficiency.

Case 2 is a 6‐year‐old Japanese girl born at 36 weeks of gestation with a birth length of 43.1 cm (−1.3 SD relative to the average for this gestational age) and birth weight of 1,544 g (−2.7 SD relative to the average for this gestational age) (Table 1). At birth, she was suspected to have Silver‐Russell syndrome because of intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR). Her height was 104.0 cm and weight 12.6 kg at the time of evaluation for this study, indicating no apparent short stature (−1.0 SD relative to the average for this age). Her fasting plasma glucose, serum IRI concentrations, and serum C‐peptide were 108 mg/dL, 56.4 μIU/mL, and 6.95 ng/mL, respectively, with an HbA1c level of 5.2%. Her HOMA‐IR was 15.0, and her HOMA‐β was 451.2%. She manifested facial characteristics of SHORT syndrome (Figure 1a,b) and had a hearing impairment, with a hearing threshold of 30 and 50 dB in the right and left ears, respectively. Otitis media was apparent in the right ear, but not in the left.

      Case#: Case 1

      DiseaseAssertion: APDS

      FamilyInfo: no familial history of PID

      CaseHPOFreeText: He was referred to our hospital at the age of 2 years with recurrent bronchopulmonary infections, lymphadenopathy, hepato-splenomegaly, liver disease (elevated transaminases and portal septal fibrosis at liver biopsy). He had increased serum IgM levels (4.25g/L), normal IgG (5.7 g/L) and decreased IgA (0.65g/L) levels, compatible with the diagnosis of CSR-D. The CD40L and CD40 defects were excluded and intravenous IgG substitution was initiated. At 8 years of age, he developed a high grade diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL, WHO classification) of biliary tract (Figure 1 a-c). In situ hybridization for Epstein Barr virus (EBV) was negative and Bcl-6 was expressed as shown by immunohistochemistry. The patient recovered after nine courses of chemotherapy (UKCCSG 9002 protocol; “see E3”). At 19 years of age, under IgG substitution, he again developed a high grade EBV(-) DLBCL of the colon, which was found to be Bcl-6 negative (Figure 1 d-f). He received CHOP (Cyclophophamide, vincristine, steroids) plus rituximab. He died from large bowel perforation and bleeding 12 days after the third course of chemotherapy.
