Short stature is a key aspect of the phenotype of patients with Turner syndrome (TS). SHOX haploinsufficiency is responsible for about two-thirds of the height deficit. The aim was to investigate the effect of X-chromosome gene dosage on anthropometric parameters at birth, spontaneous height, and adult height (AH) after growth hormone (GH) treatment.
We conducted a national observational multicenter study.
Birth parameter SDS for gestational age, height, and AH before and after GH treatment respectively, and height deficit with respect to target height (SDS) were classified by karyotype subgroup in a cohort of 1501 patients with TS: 45,X (36%), isoXq (19%), 45,X/46,XX (15%), XrX (7%), presence of Y (6%), or other karyotypes (17%).
Birth weight, length (P<0.0001), and head circumference (P<0.001), height and height deficit with respect to target height (SDS) before GH treatment, at a median age of 8.8 (5.3-11.8) years and after adjustment for age and correction for multiple testing (P<0.0001), and AH deficit with respect to target height at a median age of 19.3 (18.0-21.8) years and with additional adjustment for dose and duration of GH treatment (P=0.006), were significantly associated with karyotype subgroup. Growth retardation tended to be more severe in patients with XrX, isoXq, and, to a lesser extent, 45,X karyotypes than in patients with 45,X/46,XX karyotypes or a Y chromosome.
These data suggest that haploinsufficiency for an unknown Xp gene increases the risk of fetal and postnatal growth deficit and short AH with respect to target height after GH therapy.
特纳综合征(Turner syndrome,TS)患者的表型关键特征之一为身材矮小。SHOX 基因单倍体不足导致身高缺陷的比例约占三分之二。本研究旨在探讨 X 染色体基因剂量对特纳综合征患者出生时的人体测量参数、自发性身高和生长激素(growth hormone,GH)治疗后的成人身高(adult height,AH)的影响。
我们进行了一项全国性的观察性多中心研究。
根据核型亚组,将 1501 例特纳综合征患者的出生时胎龄的参数 SDS、身高和 GH 治疗前后的 AH 以及相对于靶身高的身高缺陷(SDS)进行分类:45,X(36%)、isoXq(19%)、45,X/46,XX(15%)、XrX(7%)、存在 Y 染色体(6%)或其他核型(17%)。
出生体重、长度(P<0.0001)和头围(P<0.001)、GH 治疗前的身高和相对于靶身高的身高缺陷(SDS)、中位年龄 8.8(5.3-11.8)岁且经年龄和多次检测校正(P<0.0001)、以及 GH 治疗中位年龄 19.3(18.0-21.8)岁且经剂量和治疗时间调整后的相对于靶身高的 AH 缺陷(P=0.006),与核型亚组显著相关。XrX、isoXq 核型患者的生长迟缓程度较 45,X/46,XX 核型患者严重,而与存在 Y 染色体的患者相比则程度较轻。
这些数据表明,未知的 Xp 基因单倍体不足增加了胎儿和出生后生长缺陷以及 GH 治疗后相对于靶身高的 AH 矮小的风险。
