BACKGROUND AND AIMS: ILNEB (interstitial lung disease, nephrotic syndrome, epidermolysis bullosa) syndrome is caused by ITGA3 mutations. Demises usually happened at infancy. This study reports a complete ILNEB syndrome child with slow disease progression.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Clinical data and related specimens were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted for genetic sequencing. Integrin α3 expression was detected by western blotting and immunofluorescence staining.
RESULTS: The patient was male. He experienced recurrent rashes shortly after birth. His sparse eyebrows and eyelashes gradually lost. The patient was vulnerable to respiratory infections and had recurrent fever after vaccine immunization after 4 years. He was found with nephrotic syndrome and polycystic renal dysplasia at 8 years and progressed to end-stage renal disease at 12 years. A chest Computed Tomography revealed intestinal lung disease at 8 years. Continuous oxygen supplementation was needed at 13 years. Counts of lymphocyte subsets revealed elevated percentage of double-negative T cells and activated T cells. Next-generation sequencing revealed a novel homozygous splice mutation c.2219 + 4A > Cin ITGA3 that was predicted to be deleterious. The mutation resulted in exon17 skipping with the loss of 80 bp in the mRNA. The aberrant integrin α3 mRNA level was lower compared to the healthy control. Integrin α3 protein was not detected in urine epithelial cells and skin of the patient.
CONCLUSIONS: We report a patient harboring a novel ITGA3 homozygous splice mutation who presented with complete ILNEB syndrome but slow disease progression. Immune disorders were suspected.
