BACKGROUND: Mutations in FOXL2 are known to cause autosomal dominant blepharophimosis-ptosis-epicanthus inversus syndrome (BPES), variably associated with premature ovarian failure. In this study, we report results of mutational screening in a Czech and Slovak patient population with BPES.
DESIGN: Case series.
PARTICIPANTS: Thirteen probands of Czech and one proband of Slovak origin with BPES and their available family members.
METHODS: Sanger sequencing and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification in 14 probands with BPES. Targeted mutational screening in first-degree relatives.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Genetic characterization and phenotype evaluation in Czech and Slovak individuals with BPES and their family members.
RESULTS: Eight different mutations were detected including three novel ones: c.5T>G; p.(Met2Arg), c.197C>A; p.(Ala66Glu) and c.701_702insTGCAGCCGCAGCGGCTGCAGCAGCTGCGGCTGCAGCCGC; p.(Ala222_Ala234dup). In one family, the molecular genetic cause of disease was not identified by the methodology used. In 13 pedigrees, a negative family history suggested a de novo origin, which could be confirmed by targeted mutational screening in four families. One 62-year-old female with the c.663_692dup30 mutation had an atypical phenotype presenting as moderate ptosis compensated by frontalis muscle contraction, no epicanthus inversus and no premature ovarian failure.
CONCLUSIONS: The de novo mutation rate in FOXL2 is exceptionally high compared with other dominant disorders manifesting with an ocular phenotype. In cases reporting a negative family history, careful examination of both parents is important to exclude mild features of the BPES phenotype.
