Limb disorders v9.8 LRP4 Ida Ertmanska commented on gene: LRP4: Comment on mode of inheritance: There are numerous individuals reported in literature with biallelic LRP4 variants, presenting with either Sclerosteosis 2 or Cenani-Lenz syndactyly syndrome, both of which affect distal limbs (polydactyly, phalangeal synostosis, syndactyly, oligodactyly). There are also two individuals reported to date with limb disorders and heterozygous missense LRP4 variants - one of which was detected by targeted sequencing of LRP4 (other genes like SOST are known to cause a similar phenotype). In addition, heterozygous carriers of LRP4 missense variants in recessive pedigrees are always unaffected. Based on available evidence, the MOI should be changed to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal.

Report of a Pakistani family with dominantly segregating polydactyly, and phalangeal synostosis. WES in the proband identified a heterozygous variant in LRP4: c.G1696A, p.(Gly566Ser) - 5 hets reported in gnomAD v4 (European pop). Good variant segregation with phenotype shown by Sanger sequencing of 3 affected and 2 unaffected individuals. Heterozygous variants were prioritised based on the pedigree.

P1 = 45yo female of Greek origin (previously described in PMID: 11385236).

Her parents were reported to be unaffected - not genotyped. Homozygous for LRP4 c.3508C>T, p.Arg1170Trp. 5 hets reported in gnomAD v4.1.2.
P2 = Spanish male (previously described in PMID: 7891385) with syndactyly and shortening of several phalanges in his hands as well as mild facial nerve palsy. X-rays revealed a sclerotic calvaria and a very dense base of the skull; all long bones were showing cortical hyperostosis. Diagnosed with sclerosteosis. Parents unaffected.

WES in the proband identified a heterozygous variant in LRP4: c.G1696A, p.(Gly566Ser) - 5 hets reported in gnomAD v4 (European pop). Good variant segregation with phenotype shown by Sanger sequencing of 3 affected and 2 unaffected individuals.

Identified two mutations in LRP4 (R1170W and W1186S) in patients with bone overgrowth
P1 = 45yo female of Greek origin (previously described in PMID: 11385236). She had syndactyly of the fingers with hypoplasia of the second finger on both hands as well as dysplastic nails. Complications included such as dizziness, difficulties with gait and coordination, vertigo, and spastic and ataxic gait disturbances. Several neurological complications, such as facial nerve palsy and hearing loss, were present due to bone compression of cranial nerves. X-rays revealed severe thickening of the calvaria and the cortices of the long bones. Diagnosed with sclerosteosis. Her parents were reported to be unaffected - not genotyped. Homozygous for LRP4 c.3508C>T, p.Arg1170Trp. 5 hets reported in gnomAD v4.1.2.
P2 = Spanish male (previously described in PMID: 7891385) with syndactyly and shortening of several phalanges in his hands as well as mild facial nerve palsy. X-rays revealed a sclerotic calvaria and a very dense base of the skull; all long bones were showing cortical hyperostosis. Diagnosed with sclerosteosis. Parents unaffected. Heterozygous for LRP4 c.3557G>C, p.Trp1186Ser (confirmed de novo, did not segregate to his children). 10 hets reported in gnomAD v4 for this variant.
