OBJECTIVE: To analyze the genetic etiology of a Chinese pedigree affected with short stature.
METHODS: A child with familial short stature (FSS) who had presented at the Ningbo Women and Children's Hospital in July 2020 and his parents and paternal and maternal grandparents were selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the pedigree was collected, and the proband was subjected to routine growth and development assessment. Peripheral blood samples were collected. The proband was subjected to whole exome sequencing (WES), and the proband, his parents and grandparents were subjected to chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA).
RESULTS: The height of the proband and his father was 87.7cm (-3 s) and 152 cm (-3.39 s) respectively. Both of them were found to harbor a 15q25.3-q26.1 microdeletion, which has encompassed the whole of the ACAN gene which is closely associated with short stature. The CMA results of his mother and grandparents were all negative, and above deletion has not been included in population database and related literature, and was rated as pathogenic based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). After 14 months of rhGH treatment, the height of the proband has increased to 98.5 cm (-2.07 s).
CONCLUSION: The 15q25.3-q26.1 microdeletion probably underlay the FSS, in this pedigree. Short-term rhGH treatment can effectively improve the height of the affected individuals.
