Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the mutation sites and characteristics of phospholipase CE1( PLCE1) gene in children with primary nephrotic syndrome(PNS) in Zhuang, Guangxi, China, so as to explore the expression status of PLCE1 protein in peripheral blood of PNS patients. Methods:(1)Blood samples of 154 Zhuang children with PNS and 98 healthy children of Zhuang nationality from July 2015 to September 2017 in Affiliated Hospital of Youjiang Medical College for Nationalities were collected to sequence PLCE1 gene with FastTarget target gene capture method in the combination with next generation sequencing.Based on the comparison between mutation results and information from the database, the pathogenicity, phenotype and distribution characteristics of these mutation sites were discovered and appraised.(2)The concentration of PLCE1 protein in serum samples were measured by enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay, then the data of PNS group and healthy control group were compared and analyzed statistically with SPSS 25.0. Results:(1)A total of 18 low-frequency mutations of PLCE1 were observed, 5 of them(c.670C>T, c.578T>C, c.923G>T, c.4916C>T, and c. 5927_5929del) were found only in the PNS group, and 3 of them occurred in both PNS group and healthy control group: c.176C>T, c.389T>C, and c. 4304C>T.Five newly discovered mutations (c.923G>T, c.958T>A, c.1151C>T, c.2341A>G, and c. 3592G>C)were discovered and only c. 923 G>T is pathogenic mutation of PLCE1.(2)The concentration of PLCE1 protein in healthy control group was 414.65 (231.20, 729.81) ng/L and the level of PLCE1 in PNS group was 237.84 (116.14, 535.85) ng/L, ( Z=-3.212, P<0.001), and the value of PNS group was lower than that in the healthy control group. Conclusions:(1)As a new pathogenic mutation of PLCE1, c.923G>T was found.(2)The phenotype of PLCE1 gene mutation in Zhuang children with PNS was diverse, and they may differ by race and region.(3) PLCE1 protein of serum may act as a protective protein to guarantee various life activities of cells by participating in multiple signal transduction pathways.
