摘      要：Background:Brachydactyly,a developmental disorder,refers to shortening of hands/feet due to small or missing metacarpals/ metatarsals and/or *** brachydactyly type E (BDE),characterized by shortened metacarpals and/or metatarsals,consists in a small proportion of patients with Homeobox D13 (HOXD13) or parathyroid-hormone-like hormone (PTHLH) *** is often accompanied by other anomalies that are parts of many congenital *** this study,we investigated a Chinese family presented with BDE combined with pectus carinatum and short ***:A four-generation Chinese family was recruited in June *** informed consent was obtained,venous blood was collected,and genomic DNA was extracted by standard ***-exome sequencing was performed to screen pathogenic mutation,array comparative genomic hybridization (Array-CGH) analysis was used to analyze copy number variations,and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR),stride over breakpoint PCR (gap-PCR),and Sanger sequencing were performed to confirm the candidate ***:A 3.06-Mb deletion (chr12:25473650-28536747) was identified and segregated with the phenotype in this *** deletion region encompasses 23 annotated genes,one of which is PTHLH which has been reported to be causative to the *** is an important regulator of endochondral bone *** affected individuals showed bilateral,severe,and generalized brachydactyly with short stature,pectus carinatum,and prematurely fusion of *** feature of pectus carinatum has not been described in the PTHLH-related BDE patients ***:The haploinsufficiency of PTHLH might be responsible for the disease in this *** study has expanded the knowledge on the phenotypic presentation of PTHLH variation.
