BACKGROUND: Platelet-type bleeding disorder 20 (BDPLT20), as known as SLFN14-related thrombocytopenia, is a rare inherited thrombocytopenia (IT). Previously, only 5 heterozygous missense mutations in the SLFN14 gene have been reported.
METHODS: A comprehensive clinical and laboratory examination of a 17-year-old female patient with macrothrombocytopenia and severe mucocutaneous bleeding was performed. Examination was carried out using standardized questionnaires to assess bleeding, high-throughput sequencing (Next Generation Sequencing), optical and fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry with activation and analysis of intracellular calcium signaling of platelets, light transmission aggregometry and thrombus growth in the flow chamber.
RESULTS: Analysis of the patient's genotype revealed a previously undescribed c.655 A > G (p.K219E) variant in the hotspot of the SLFN14 gene. Immunofluorescence and brightfield examination of platelets in the smear showed heterogeneity in cells size, including giant forms over 10 μm (normal size 1-5) in diameter, with vacuolization and diffuse distribution of β1-tubulin and CD63. Activated platelets showed impaired contraction and shedding/internalization of GPIb. GP IIb/IIIa clustering was increased at rest and attenuated upon activation. Intracellular signalling study revealed impaired calcium mobilization upon TRAP 35.97 nM (reference range 180 ± 44) and CRP-XL 10.08 nM (56 ± 30) stimulation. Aggregation with ADP, collagen, TRAP, arachidonic acid and epinephrine was impaired in light transmission aggregometry; agglutination with ristocetin persisted. In the flow chamber with a shear rate of 400 s-1 platelet adhesion to collagen and clot growth were impaired.
CONCLUSION: The revealed disorders of phenotype, cytoskeleton and intracellular signaling explain the nature of SLFN14 platelet dysfunction and the patient's severe hemorrhagic syndrome.
