BACKGROUND: Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is a rare sex-linked recessive disorder that disrupts adrenal gland function and the white matter of the nervous system. According to recent epidemiological statistics, up to this moment, the disease is the most recorded peroxisomal disorder. ABCD1 is a gene related to ALD, with more than 850 unique mutations have been reported. Early diagnosis of the disease would help to consult families with ALD to plan for interventions to prevent passing along the pathogenic mutations to their children.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: A heterozygous ABCD1 gene mutation related to ALD found in a Vietnamese woman was used to design primers for the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify the segment spanning the mutation. Then, combining sequencing methods for the PCR products, especially Sanger sequencing and next-generation sequencing (NGS), a protocol was developed to detect mutations on the ABCD1 gene to apply for the DNA samples of in-vitro fertilization (IVF) embryos biopsied at the blastocyst stage to screen for pathogenic alleles.
RESULTS: The established protocol for PGD of ALD detected mutant alleles in 5/8 embryos (62.5%), while the remaining 3 embryos (37.5%) did not carry any mutation. One of the 3 embryos was transferred, and a healthy female baby was born after a full-term pregnancy.
CONCLUSION: The developed protocol was helpful for the preimplantation genetic diagnosis process to help families with the monogenic disease of ALD but wish to have healthy children.
