Molecular screening ofSHH,ZIC2,SIX3, andTGIF genes in patients with features of holoprosencephaly spectrum: Mutation review and genotype-phenotype correlations
Abstract
Holoprosencephaly (HPE; 1 out of 16,000 live births; 1 out of 250 conceptuses) is a complex brain malformation resulting from incomplete cleavage of the prosencephalon, affecting both the forebrain and the face. Clinical expressivity is variable, ranging from a single cerebral ventricle and cyclopia to clinically unaffected carriers in familial dominant autosomic HPE. The disease is genetically heterogeneous, but additional environmental agents also contribute to the etiology of HPE. In our cohort of 200 patients, 34 heterozygous mutations were identified, 24 of them being novel ones: 13 out of 17 in the Sonic hedgehog gene (SHH); 4 out of 7 in ZIC2; and 7 out of 8 in SIX3. The two mutations identified in TGIF have already been reported. Novel phenotypes associated with a mutation have been described, such as abnormalities of the pituitary gland and corpus callosum, colobomatous microphthalmia, choanal aperture stenosis, and isolated cleft lip. This study confirms the great genetic heterogeneity of the disease, the important phenotypic variability in HPE families, and the difficulty to establish genotype-phenotype correlations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
