A novel mutation in the HPGD gene causing primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy with digital clubbing in a Pakistani family.
Annals of Human Genetics 2018 May
Primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (PHO) is a congenital multisystemic entity characterized by three major clinical symptoms: pachydermia, periostosis, and digital clubbing. Recently it has been reported that pathogenic mutations in two genes are known to be associated with PHO: HPGD and SLCO2A1. In the present study, a five-generation consanguineous Pakistani family harboring primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy in autosomal-recessive pattern was ascertained. Whole genome single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genotyping and sequence analysis revealed a novel homozygous missense mutation (c.577T˃C) of the human HPGD gene in all affected members of the family. The study presented here demonstrate the first case of primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy reported in Pashtun population.
