BACKGROUND: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is most commonly caused by pathogenic variants in PKD1. Here, we reported the functional characterization of an intronic PKD1 variant identified in an ADPKD-affected family and its subsequent application in preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disorders (PGT-M).
CASE PRESENTATION: A three-generation ADPKD family was enrolled. Whole-exome sequencing revealed a heterozygous PKD1 c.7489 + 5G>A variant, which co-segregated with the disease and was initially classified as a variant of uncertain significance. A minigene assay demonstrated that the variant induced skipping of exon 18, leading to a frameshift (p.Arg2404Valfs*123), supporting its reclassification as pathogenic. The couple underwent PGT-M using trophectoderm biopsy, haplotype linkage analysis, and direct mutation detection. An unaffected pregnancy was achieved, and subsequent prenatal diagnosis confirmed the absence of the variant and a normal chromosomal karyotype.
CONCLUSION: We validated a pathogenic splicing variant in PKD1 and successfully applied PGT-M to prevent disease transmission, resulting in an unaffected pregnancy.
