OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate and compare whole exome sequencing (WES) and targeted panel sequencing in the clinical molecular diagnosis of the Chinese families affected with inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs).
METHODS:
The clinical information of 182 probands affected with IRDs was collected, including their family history and the ophthalmic examination results. Blood samples of all probands and their relatives were collected and genomic DNA was extracted by standard protocols. The first 91 cases were subjected to the WES and the other 91 cases were subjected to a specific hereditary eye disease enrichment panel (HEDEP) designed by us. All likely pathogenic and pathogenic variants in the candidate genes were determined by Sanger sequencing and co-segregation analyses were performed in available family members. Copy number variations (CNVs) detected by HEDEP were further validated by multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA). As PRGR ORF15 was difficult to capture by next generation sequencing (NGS), all the samples were subjected to Sanger sequencing for this region. All sequence changes identified by NGS were classified according to the American College of Medical Gene-tics and Genomics and the Association for Molecular Pathology (ACMG/AMP) variant interpretation guidelines. In this study, only variants identified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic were included, while those variants of uncertain significance, likely benign or benign were not included.
RESULTS:
In 91 cases with WES, pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants were determined in 30 cases, obtaining a detection rate of 33.00% (30/91); While in 91 cases with HEDEP sequencing, pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants were determined in 51 cases, achieving the diagnostic rate of 56.04% (51/91), and totally, the diagnostic rate was 44.51%. HEDEP had better sequencing coverage and read depth than WES, therefore HEDEP had higher detection rate. In addition, HEDEP could detect CNVs. In this study, we detected disease-causing variants in 29 distinct IRD-associated genes, USH2A, ABCA4 and RPGR were the three most common disease-causing genes, and the frequency of these genes in Chinese IRDs population was 11.54% (21/182), 6.59% (12/182) and 3.85% (7/182), respectively. We found 43 novel variants and 6 cases carried variants in RPGR ORF15.
CONCLUSION
NGS in conjunction with Sanger sequencing offers a reliable and effective approach for the genetic diagnosis of IRDs, and after evaluating the pros and cons of the two sequencing methods, we conclude that HEDEP should be used as a first-tier test for IRDs patients, WES can be used as a supplementary molecular diagnostic method due to its merit of detecting novel IRD-associated genes if HEDEP or other methods could not detect disease-causing va-riants in reported genes. In addition, our results enriched the mutational spectra of IRDs genes, and our methods paves the way of genetic counselling, family planning and up-coming gene-based therapies for these families.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the characteristics and regularities of the adverse drug reactions(ADRs)induced by irino-tecan,in order to provide reference for clinical application. METHODS:In retrospective study,56 cases of irinotecan-induced ADR collected from our hospital during Jun. 2011-Jan.2015 were analyzed statistically in respects of gender,age,disease types, ECOG score,medication,organs/systems involved in ADR,clinical manifestations,outcome,etc. RESULTS:All 56 patients suf-fered from ADR,among which the percentage of hematopoietic system accounted for the highest(100%),and followed by diges-tive system;the grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ ADRs accounted for 87.20%,the grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ ADRs accounted for 12.80%. 64.50% of ADRs oc-curred within 1 week. In respect of conversion,85.71%(48/56)of the patients recovered with supportive care and continued che-motherapy,the remaining 8 cases had to reduce the dose of chemotherapy and then recovered. CONCLUSIONS:With regular dose,irinotecan is well tolerated. Since ADRs induced by irinotecan are slight,all the ADRs are well managed. It is important to enhance follow-up observations of patients to prevent some serious ADRs.
