OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to screen for DUOX2, TPO and TG mutations in Chinese patients with congenital hypothyroidism (CH) and goitre and to define the relationships between DUOX2 genotypes and clinical phenotypes.
METHODS: Blood samples were collected from 67 patients with CH and goitre in Shandong Province, China. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood leucocytes. PCR and direct sequencing were used to analyse all exons of DUOX2, TPO and TG. Detailed medical records were then collected, and the relationship between DUOX2 genotype and the clinical phenotype of CH and goitre caused by DUOX2 mutations was investigated.
RESULTS: Analysis of DUOX2 revealed nine mutations, including one novel nonsense mutation (p.W734X), six novel missense mutations (p.N100D, p.S660L, p.A1131S, p.W1181G, p.A1206T and p.R1267W) and two recurrent mutations (p.R701X and p.R1110Q) in 10 patients from 10 unrelated families. Monoallelic and compound heterozygous mutations in DUOX2 were associated with permanent or transient CH. No mutation was found after screening all exons of TPO and TG.
CONCLUSION: Our study identified DUOX2 mutations in 14·9% of Chinese patients investigated with CH and goitre. Because the relationships between DUOX2 genotypes and clinical phenotypes are extremely complex, however, further studies are needed to identify more mutations in known genes which are involved in CH and goitre.
