Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS) is an X-linked recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in the SLC16A2 gene that encodes thyroid hormone transporter. AHDS has been rarely reported in China.
CASE PRESENTATION: This study reported a novel splicing mutation in the SLC16A2 gene in an 18-month-old male patient with AHDS. The patient was born to non-consanguineous, healthy parents of Chinese origin. He passed new-born screening for hypothyroidism, but failed to reach developmental milestones. He presented with hypotonia, severe mental retardation, dysarthria and ataxia. Genetic analysis identified a novel splicing mutation, NM_006517.4: c.431-2 A > G, in the SLC16A2 gene inherited from his mother. The patient received Triac treatment, (triiodothyroacetic acid), a thyroid hormone analogue for 3 months. Triac treatment effectively reduced serum TSH concentrations and normalized serum T3 concentrations in the patient.
CONCLUSIONS: This study reported the first case of AHDS treated by Triac in China. And the study expanded the mutational spectrum of the SLC16A2 gene in AHDS patients.
