Dysferlinopathy has a high prevalence in relatively isolated ethnic groups where consanguineous marriages are characteristic and/or the founder effect exists. However, the frequency of endemic mutations in most isolates has not been investigated.
The prevalence of the pathological DYSF gene variant (NM_003494.4); c.200_201delinsAT, p. Val67Asp (rs121908957) was investigated in an isolated Avar population in the Republic of Dagestan. Genetic screenings were conducted in a remote mountainous region characterized by a high level of consanguinity among its inhabitants. In total, 746 individuals were included in the screenings.
This pathological DYSF gene variant causes two primary phenotypes of dysferlinopathy: limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) type R2 and Miyoshi muscular dystrophy type 1. Results indicated a high prevalence of the allele at 14% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 12-17; 138 out of 1518 alleles), while the allele in the homozygous state was detected in 29 cases-3.8% (CI: 2.6-5.4). The population load for dysferlinopathy was 832.3 ± 153.9 per 100,000 with an average prevalence of limb-girdle muscular dystrophies ranging from 0.38 ± 0.38 to 5.93 ± 1.44 per 100,000.
A significant burden of the allele was due to inbreeding, as evidenced by a deficiency of heterozygotes and the Wright fixation index equal to 0.14 (CI 0.06-0.23).
在近亲结婚具有特征性和/或存在奠基者效应的相对隔离的族群中,dysferlinopathy的患病率较高。然而,大多数隔离群体中地方性突变的频率尚未得到研究。
在达吉斯坦共和国一个隔离的阿瓦尔人群中,对病理性DYSF基因变异(NM_003494.4);c.200_201delinsAT,p.Val67Asp(rs121908957)的患病率进行了调查。在一个偏远山区进行了基因筛查,该地区居民的近亲结婚程度很高。总共有746人参与了筛查。
这种病理性DYSF基因变异导致dysferlinopathy的两种主要表型:R2型肢带型肌营养不良(LGMD)和1型宫下型肌营养不良。结果表明,该等位基因的患病率较高,为14%(95%置信区间[CI]:12 - 17;1518个等位基因中有138个),而纯合状态的等位基因在29例中被检测到,占3.8%(CI:2.6 - 5.4)。dysferlinopathy的人群负荷为每10万人832.3±153.9,肢带型肌营养不良的平均患病率为每10万人0.38±0.38至5.93±1.44。
等位基因的显著负担是由于近亲繁殖,杂合子缺乏以及赖特固定指数等于0.14(CI 0.06 - 0.23)证明了这一点。
