Identification of SLC26A3 Mutations in a Korean Patient with Congenital Chloride Diarrhea

Abstract: Congenital chloride diarrhea (CLD) is an autosomal recessive disorder with the hallmark of persistent watery Cl--rich diarrhea from birth. Mutations in the solute carrier family 26, member 3 (SLC26A3) gene, which encodes a coupled Cl-/HCO3- exchanger in the ileum and colon, are known to cause CLD. Although there are a few reports of CLD patients in Korea, none of these had been confirmed by genetic analysis. Here, we describe the case of a Korean infant with clinical features of CLD. Using direct sequencing an… Show more

“…The present patient was heterozygous for c.392C>T and c.2063‐1G>T. c.392C>T heterozygosity was reported in the USA. c.2063‐1G>T heterozygosity was reported in Korea . In Korea, genetic analysis of eight CCD patients was done .…”

“…c.2063-1G>T heterozygosity was reported in Korea. 8 In Korea, genetic analysis of eight CCD patients was done. 9 Neither of the mutations have not been reported in Japan, therefore it is necessary to carry out genetic analysis of CCD patients in Japan to confirm a diagnosis of CCD.…”

“…In Korea, no CLD patient has undergone genetic study, but the first mutational analysis was conducted in 2012. A missense variant (c.525G>C; p.Arg175 Ser) and a splicing mutation (c.2063-1G>T) in the SLC26A3 gene were identified in that patient [ 19 ]. Recently, genetic analysis was performed in eight Korean-origin patients with non-consanguineous parents, and the most common mutation found was c.2063-1G>T [ 20 ].…”

“…Late diagnosis and treatment lead to intractable chronic diarrhea, malnutrition and delayed growth. Although CLD is rare in East Asia, more active efforts for diagnosis are needed in suspicious case in neonate with intractable diarrhea with hypochloremic, metabolic alkalosis 5,6 . And appropriate treatment with sodium and potassium can lead to successful catch‐up growth even though delayed diagnosis.…”
