INTRODUCTION: The gene-environment interaction of the REarranged during Transfection ( RET ) gene with vitamin A in the etiopathogenesis of Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) has been suggested in rodents. The aim of this study was to evaluate vitamin A status in mothers of children with HSCR and to assess its association with pathogenic variants of the RET gene in affected children.
METHODS: This was a case-control study of stable isotope-based vitamin A measurement stores of mothers of children diagnosed with HSCR (within 8 months from birth, n = 7) and age-matched mothers of normal children (n = 6). Next-generation sequencing of RET exons, along with their upstream promoter region, was performed in the 7 HSCR proband-parent triads to evaluate pathogenic variants.
RESULTS: Maternal vitamin A stores in the HSCR group was almost 50% that of those in controls, tending toward significance (0.50 ± 0.17 vs 0.89 ± 0.51 μmol/g respectively, P = 0.079). Two novel pathogenic de novo mutations were identified in 2 cases, and a rare single-nucleotide deletion was detected in the 3.5-kb RET upstream region, in a heterozygous state, in all 7 proband-parent triads. Low-penetrance RET haplotypes associated with HSCR were detected in 5 cases.
DISCUSSION: Mothers with children with HSCR had lower vitamin A liver stores than mothers with normal children, and the children who were affected had HSCR despite having no established pathogenic RET variants. Lower maternal vitamin A status may increase the penetrance of genetic mutations in RET , and vitamin-A mediated gene-environment interactions may underpin some of the etiology of HSCR.
