Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the clinical features and genetic factors of neonatal 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type10 (HSD10) deficiency.Methods:The clinical characteristics and genetic test results of a child with HSD10 deficiency coming from Children′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University in April 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.The keywords" 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 10 deficiency" or " 2-Methyl3-Hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency" or " HSD10" , etc.were searched in various databases, including CNKI, Wanfang, Weipu, Embase and PubMed to review the cases collected from all published data until May 31, 2020.Results:The patient was a newborn male who developed symptoms on the first day after birth.The main signs were metabolic acidosis, increased blood ammonia and lactate, and hypotonia.Trio whole exom sequencing in the patient and his parents identified hemizygous NM001037811: c.650G>A, p.R217Q in the HSD17B10 gene that is inherited from the mother.Since the child died on the third day after birth, no further central nervous system examination was performed.The mother of the child has intellectual disability, the sibling sister is normal and the HSD17B10 locus is wild type.By lite-rature reviewing, 5 newborn cases with clear medical records and genetic test results were listed.All patients were male, and had onset of HSD10 deficiency within 1 week after birth.The main phenotypes include metabolic acidosis (increased blood ammonia and lactate), hypoglycemia, hypotonia, and convulsions.All 6 children died in early infancy.The corresponsive HSD17B10 variants were c. 740A>G/p.N247S, c.677G>A/p.R226Q, c.257A>G/p.D86G and c. 650G>A/p.R217Q, which did not indicate the hot spots of mutation. Conclusions:HSD10 deficiency in the neonatal period is relatively rare.The clinical diagnosis is difficult due to the serious condition and short course of the disease.Severe metabolic acidosis, hypotonia, and convulsions in neonatal patients are the main reasons for the poor prognosis, which can be attributed to the hemizygous variation and heterogeneity of the mutation site in male patients.c.650G>A may be closely associated with severe neonatal HSD10 deficiency, but the molecular biological mechanism needs to be further clarified.HSD10 deficiency has a poor prognosis and lacks effective treatment.
