OsteogenesisImperfecta • Characteristics • 6/100,000 worldwide
Diagnosis • Child Abuse? • Clinical symptom evaluation, DNA and protein testing to confirm • Family history • Ultrasound and amniocentesis performed in utero • 90% of mutations in collagen 1 • Types II, III, IV often born with broken bones
COL1A1 • 17q21.33 • Osteogenesisimperfecta types I-IV • Ehlers-Danlos • Osteoporosis
COL1A1 • Collagen, type 1, alpha 1 • Type 1 collagen is the most abundant in the human body • Provides strength and support for cartilage, bone, tendon, skin, and sclera • COL1A1 codes for pro-α1(I) component of collagen
Mutation • OI is most common result of COL1A1 mutations • Mildest for of OI results from reduced production of pro-α1(I) chains • More severe types (II, III, IV): • Deleted segments of DNA within COL1A1 • Altered aa sequence—replacement of glycine • AA substitutions alter C-terminus of protein • Abnormal collagen incorporated into bones causing severe forms of OI
Testing • To detect mutations that alter mRNA stability • Genomic DNA sequence analysis • Nonsense, missense, splice-site • Type IV (70-80%) • Complementary DNA sequence analysis • RNA derived from dermal fibroblasts; sometimes leukocytes • Missense, small insertions/deletions, exon-skipping • Types I (100%), II(98%), III (60-70%) • Mutations in most families are unique; only few recurrent mutations seen in more than one family
Inheritance • Autosomal Dominant • Types I-V • Autosomal Recessive • Type VII, sometimes III* • *Often indicates mutations in other genes (CRTAP or LEPRE1) • No history • Type II and III often present with no family history • Sporadic mutations in COL1A1 and COL1A2 • Children of proband have 50% chance of inheriting OI
Treatments • Management of fractures: short-term, lightweight casts/splints/braces • PT and/or OT • Safe physical activity: swimming, walking, stationary cycling • Rodding (esp. children) • Reconstructive surgery, joint replacements
Therapies under investigation • Bisphosphonates (Pamidronate) • Decrease bone resorption to increase bone mass and strength • Mostly in severe types • Human growth hormone • Appears to improve linear growth rates and bone formation • Bone marrow transplant • Mesenchymal stem cells differentiate into normal osteoblasts
