PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to assess the genetic evaluation of a three-generation consanguineous family with isolated oligodontia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 16-year-old male patient who had been referred for orthodontic treatment due to the presence of oligodontia, and his family members who presented several missing teeth had been enrolled in the study. Clinical and radiological assessments and genetic analysis including whole-exome sequencing were performed. RESULTS: Genetic evaluations revealed both homozygous and heterozygous mutations (c.T682A:p.F228I) in the WNT10A gene of six affected members of the family. Higher frequency of agenesis of mandibular second molar was found in homozygous relative to heterozygous WNT10A mutations. CONCLUSION: The present findings have provided evidence for a known variant in the WNT10A gene in a three-generation consanguineous family with isolated oligodontia, while the results confirmed that cases with homozygous mutation revealed clinical heterogeneity.
目的:本研究旨在评估一个患有孤立性少牙症的三代近亲家庭的基因情况。 材料与方法:一名因少牙症前来接受正畸治疗的16岁男性患者及其有几颗牙齿缺失的家庭成员参与了本研究。进行了临床和放射学评估以及包括全外显子组测序在内的基因分析。 结果:基因评估发现该家族六名受影响成员的WNT10A基因存在纯合和杂合突变(c.T682A:p.F228I)。相对于WNT10A基因杂合突变,纯合突变患者下颌第二磨牙缺失的频率更高。 结论:本研究结果为一个患有孤立性少牙症的三代近亲家庭中WNT10A基因的已知变异提供了证据,同时结果证实纯合突变病例存在临床异质性。
