Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical features and characteristics of gene mutation of patients with neurodevelopmental disorder caused by CTNNB1 gene. Method:Genetic mutation analysis of the patients were obtained by using the whole exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing. We reviewed the literatures for the clinical and genetic features of CTNNB1 related neurodevelopmental disorder. Results:Six inpatients, three boys and three girls, who came for speech impairment motor delay were included in this study. The average age for the patients was 17.8±11.1 months. The main clinical manifestations of the patients were craniofacial dysmorphism, microcephaly, hypertonia or spasm, speech impairment motor delay, esotropia and valgus. WES showed that 6 patients carried de novo mutations of CTNNB1 gene, which were c.1057delA, c.1493_1494insA, c.418_424del, c.1985_1988del, c.1420C>T and c.1550T>C. No abnormality was found in the patients′ parents. Conclusions:The clinical manifestation of CTNNB1 related neurodevelopmental disorder involves multiple systems. We found five unreported variants and expanded the variation spectrum of the CTNNB1 gene.
