Abstract

The process of tooth formation is a series of reciprocal interactions between the ectoderm and mesoderm, and it is believed that many genetic factors are involved in this complex process. More than a dozen genes have been identified in non-syndromic tooth agenesis; however, the genetic etiology underlying tooth agenesis is not fully understood yet. In this study, we identified two novel LRP6 mutations in two non-syndromic oligodontia families. Both probands had 16 and 17 missing teeth in their permanent dentition. Mutational analysis identified a de novo frameshift mutation by a 1-bp insertion in exon 9 (NM_002336.2: c.1870dupA, p.(Met624Asnfs*29)) and a splicing donor site mutation in intron 8 (c.1762+2T>C). An in vitro splicing assay confirmed the deletion of exon 8, and the deletion would result in a frameshift. Due to the premature termination codons introduced by the frameshift, both mutant transcripts would be degraded by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, resulting in haploinsufficiency.

  • The effect of this presumably dominant-negative mutation on early development may be more widespread than that of previously described pathogenic LRP6 variants.

    “Therefore, the effect of this presumably dominant-negative mutation on early development may be more widespread than that of previously described pathogenic LRP6 variants [54,55].”

    From Molecular Pathway-Based Classification of Ectodermal Dysplasias: First Five-Yearly Update (2022) · cites this paper as [55]

    The Discussion describes a previously reported LRP6 frameshift associated with orofacial clefting and suggests its dominant-negative effect would be more harmful than that of other frameshift mutations degraded by nonsense-mediated decay. It does not compare the citing paper’s mutation with previously described LRP6 variants or establish that its effects on early development may be more widespread. The Conclusions describe this paper’s two newly identified mutations as predicted to cause transcript degradation, not dominant-negative effects. (LLM, conf=0.84)

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.
