The aim of this study was to describe the genetic features and correlation between the genotype and phenotype of Chinese patients with primary hyperoxaluria type 3 (PH3). Genetic and clinical data of PH3 patients in our cohort were collected and analyzed retrospectively. A total of 60 Chinese PH3 patients were included, and various mutations in the HOGA1 gene were found.
PurposeThe aim of our study is to describe the genetic features and correlation between the genotype and phenotype of Chinese patients with primary hyperoxaluria type 3 (PH3).MethodsThe genetic and clinical data of PH3 patients in our cohort were collected and analyzed retrospectively. All published studies of Chinese PH3 populations between January 2010 and November 2022 were searched and enrolled based on inclusive standards.ResultsA total of 60 Chinese PH3 patients (21 cases from our cohort and 39 cases from previous studies) were included. The mean age of onset was 1.62 +/- 1.35 (range 0.4-7) years. A total of 29 different variants in the HOGA1 gene were found. The mutations were most commonly clustered in exons 1, 6, and 7. Among the genotypes, exon 6 skipping (c.834G > A and c.834_834 + 1GG > TT mutations) was the most common, followed by c.769 T > G; the allele frequencies (AFs) were 48.76% and 12.40%, respectively. Patients homozygous for exon 6 skipping exhibited a median age of onset of 0.67 (0.58-1) years, which was significantly lower than that observed among heterozygotes and nonexon 6 skipping patients (p = 0.021). A total of 22.5% (9/40) of PH3 patients had a decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate, and one patient with homozygous exon 6 skipping developed end-stage renal disease.ConclusionsA hotspot mutation, potential hotspot mutation and genotype-phenotype correlation were found in Chinese PH3 patients. This study expands the mutational spectrum and contributes to the understanding of genotypic profiles of PH3, which may provide a potential diagnostic and therapeutic target.
