Fetal anomalies v6.14 PDE12 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram changed review comment from: PMID:39567835 (2025) reported five cases (three live-borns and two foetuses) from three unrelated families presenting with severe early-onset mitochondrial disease. They showed wide-ranging clinical presentations in utero and within the neonatal period, with muscle and brain involvement leading to marked cytochrome c oxidase (COX) deficiency in muscle and severe lactic acidosis.

In family 1, one of the two patients died at 3 months of age, while patient from family 2 died at day 2. Increased nuchal translucency, severe intra-uterine growth retardation, hydrops and cystic hygroma was noted in one of the two foetuses by prenatal ultrasound and the pregnancy ended spontaneously at 22 gestational weeks. Nuchal translucency and absence of foetal movements were observed in the other foetus, which was terminated at 19 weeks.

All three families harboured a different homozygous variant in PDE12 gene (p.Tyr155Cys, p.Gly372Glu & p.Arg41Pro) as identified by whole-exome sequencing. Based on the gnomAD database, all three missense variants were reported to be rare in general population.

Functional evidence from patient fibroblast studies showed reduced PDE12 protein and accumulation of abnormally polyadenylated mitochondrial tRNAs/rRNAs, causing disrupted mitochondrial RNA processing. In addition, in silico modeling of the variants also suggested loss of function.

This gene has not yet been associated with relevant phenotypes either in OMIM or in Gene2Phenotype.

They showed wide-ranging clinical presentations in utero and within the neonatal period, with muscle and brain involvement leading to marked cytochrome c oxidase (COX) deficiency in muscle and severe lactic acidosis.

Of these, the patient from family 2 (died on day 2 after birth), and the two foetuses from family 3 had foetal anomalies detected via prenatal ultrasound. The patient from family 2 had brain anomalies. Increased nuchal translucency, severe intra-uterine growth retardation, hydrops and cystic hygroma was noted in one of the two foetuses from family 3 and the pregnancy ended spontaneously at 22 gestational weeks.

Added comment: Biallelic loss-of-function variants associated with autosomal recessive developmental and epileptic encephalopathy-38 (DEE38). Biallelic variants reported prenatally in 3 families (4 fetuses) in association with abnormal scan findings, particularly renal abnormalities. Renal abnormalities are not a common postnatal finding in this disorder, so causal relationship to scan findings is unclear.
