OBJECTIVE: To determine the carrier frequency of X-linked and autosomal recessive diseases in patients attending a human fertility institute in Colombia.
METHODS: This retrospective observational study included patients and gamete donors attending a Human Fertility Institute in Colombia between January 2017 and June 2023. Sociodemographic data and results of Next Generation Sequencing laboratory panels for screening of recessive disease-causing mutations were collected and analyzed.
RESULTS: Data from 746 samples were analyzed; 599 (80.3%) were Colombian origin individuals and 147 (19.7%) were foreigners. At least one mutation was detected in 526 (70.5%) individuals. Of note, 893 pathogenic genetic variants were identified.The genetic variants most frequently observed in all the individuals studied were associated with the following diseases (carrier frequency): alpha thalassemia (10.5%), alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (10%), congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (9.4%), cystic fibrosis (7.3%), spinal muscular atrophy type 1 (5.6%) and Stargardt disease type 1 (5.0%). The most frequent genetic variant observed in the subgroup of Colombian origin individuals was associated with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (11.3%).
CONCLUSIONS: Information on the frequency of recessive diseases in Colombia is limited. This pioneering carrier genetic screening identified a high percentage of carriers for at least one recessive autosomal or X-linked in the population evaluated. Screening for recessive mutations could lead to an evolution in family planning programs and a decrease in the number of patients affected by recessive disorders. Furthermore, it could become a routine test not only in cases of assisted reproduction but also in cases of natural gestation.
